So we've just got back from visiting new DPs family in a country known for cold weather, saunas and happiness.
As a proudly feminist lefty with ideas that I'm comfortable with everything and anything, I have to admit I've been left a bit by DP family's attitude to clothliness, or more specifically non-clothliness. I've even NC'd and I don't know why given I'm probably not hard to recognise
Now I can't say I wasn't warned, and I chose to throw myself into it; but I suddenly feel a little like I'm stuck in the dark ages rather than the progressive free-wheeler I thought I was. Suffice to say it involved saunas with the mother with little but a tiny towel, and it was totally normal for adults and teens alike to walk towel-less to a room after a shower nevermind who was around etc. I honestly felt like my cheeks were constantly burning!
So are we weird or are they!? I have no living memory of ever seeing my parents naked, I don't think I ever saw my (now adult) kids naked after about 10, never my siblings once we'd grown up.
Don't get me wrong I didn't hate it, just a lot to take in in, in more ways than one. Anyway I guess I'll go and reflect, it should be totally normal I know, but I'm off to put my button up pyjamas on and watch midsummer murders -guilty pleasure-

To ask when was the last time you saw your family naked?
