Q&A for How to Practise Nudism in Your Room With No One Knowing

The whole point of naturism is that you shouldn't be ashamed of your body. If you get an erection around other nudists, they're likely to have no reaction at all. After all, erections are totally natural.

It's probably best to not do either of these things. If you don't tell them, it's still possible that they spot you on a security cam. On top of that, it's a little disrespectful to do something with a person's animals without consent. If you have a super intimate relationship with the owners you can ask, but if you don't know them that well and you aren't close friends you could alienate them.

Absolutely not. If you're most comfortable in clothing you shouldn't change anything. Everybody is different when it comes to what makes them feel most comfortable in their own skin!

You don't have to. Some people enjoy getting together with others who practice nudism, but it's totally OK to do so on your own.

Yes, it is.

Mostly people are worried about having their personal appearance judged.

You can say, "Hold on, I'm changing!" When you open the door, be calm.

You can put something heavy against the door, or simply do it when no one is home.

Because clothes are the cultural norm, and in many places it's illegal to be naked in public. Clothes also provide protection from the elements and a means of self-expression.

Whenever you're preparing to practice nudism, keep a change of clothes nearby (like a pair of shorts and a t-shirt) that you could throw on quickly if you needed to leave the house for some reason.

It's not something most people do. But there's nothing wrong with it, as long as you're not bothering anybody.

I would talk to your child about when and where it's appropriate to be naked. There's nothing wrong with being nude as long as your child understands that it's not always a good choice depending on the situation.

You don't always have to tell them; it may be a little awkward if you do. Try waiting until everyone is out of the house and then do it.

Well, sex needs to be consensual. If you don't want to have sex, tell him to stop and put some clothes on. This is one of those "common sense" situations.

Talk to them. Tell them that you need privacy. If they decline, tell them that you would like to be naked for a little while.

As the house is your parents and you respect your parents, try respectfully talking to them about your desire to have a little more privacy and ask if they can knock before coming in to your room. Showing them respect is more likely to get them to respect your wishes.

You can slip on anything that will cover up what you need covered up. A towel, a blanket, a robe, a tee-shirt, your underwear, all can work great in a pinch.

You can just spend all of your time in the bathroom naked. You can also be naked at night or early morning while everyone is asleep.

Of course, as long as you're both comfortable with it. If you're not at a stage where you are comfortable in the nude around each other, have a conversation about it.

No. You can get arrested for indecent exposure if you do this.

Try to calmly explain to them that you feel more comfortable sleeping nude than wearing clothes. You can do this when they pull the blanket if they wake you up, or the next day. If need be, also explain you are doing it just because of the comfort, not because you want to masturbate. If you want to avoid the situation altogether, you can try telling them ahead of time that you will be sleeping nude.

Try saying something like, “I’m doing homework, so can I have some privacy for a bit?” Or, “I have a headache. I’m gonna take a nap for a bit. Can you stay out of my room, please?” Just make something up and make sure it wouldn’t seem suspicious to you.

I guess anything is possible.

Do all the same things you did while you were clothed to have fun and be sexy.

Unfortunately, the law won't be on your side. If you are nude in a secluded area, you may be fine. But if you're walking nude down a city street, you will likely be arrested. You might be able to find a nude beach in your area.

Try keeping a towel underneath you to avoid that situation.

Tell them you don't want to do it for inappropriate reasons, that you just feel more comfortable being naked. If your parents absolutely forbid it, either try to hide your nudism using the tips in the article, or just wait until you're a little older and can make decisions for yourself.

Talk to your parents and see if they'll let you be naked around the house if they'll allow it. If not then you'll have to wait until everyone is gone. Another alternative is to drape an opaque cloth over the door, saying that it's your decorative choice. The door remains open but you cannot be seen within.

Go to another room (for example, the bathroom, a spare room) and do it there. If your sister asks what you're doing, say "I'm going to take a shower." If you wish to sleep nude at night, undress in bed, then dress in bed before getting out.
