To think there is something creepy about nudists

[victoriascrumptious]

100% more creepy than swingers in fact. In fact swingers are not creepy at all. Just a bit Alan Patridge-style embarrassing.

Nudists however creep me out.

If there were any in my street I would be very unhappy

Sorry Their front door.

How Dutch that even their nudists were riding bicycles. I wonder if they build up resistance to chafing?

interesting thread

does anyone know how nudism would be viewed by the authorities - where is the line between allowing your DC to see you naked (as is healthy in families until the child becomes uncomfortable with it), and subjecting them to some form of mental/emotional abuse by doing this sort of thing??

Nah, but there's somethinkg a bit crepey about nudists

lolapoppins my parents were nudist for a stretch too, we were older 11 and 12. They opened a nudist beach - as was the rage in the eighties - in our home town. So we were dragged down for the day.

Try this on for size, our parents nude, standing by the swingball (after having played an exhilerating game ) but having been stopped mid game by the call of our Geography teacher also nude, who recognised my brother and myself.

So the three of them stood there in the Welsh sun, chatting away about our school, naked, while my brother and I nearly cried with embarrassment.

very clever TillyMint

and as for IFancykevin - OMG!!!!!!!!

I meant without mentioning the flat was in a nudist resort.

I went on a nudist beach when I was younger. There was non one else there, the weather was boiling and the beach was hidden away in Devon and very beautiful. Skinny dipping in the sea was amazing...

Not a nudist though and not done anything like beofre or since...

IFancyKevinELevin I should imagine years of therapy couldn't erase the trauma of that

And the thought of nudey swingball....dearie me

DCs love the fact they only have to get dressed/undressed to go for a days outing.

DP and I are nudists.

We find being naked to be natural and comfortable, it removes boundaries.

No it can't and DB and I really don't discuss it anymore..ever.

But if I sit here, quietly, I can still feel the hot sun, chaffing sand, and if I close my eyes I can still see my Geog teacher's moustache and big thick thatch of pubes.

My dad burnt his nob a bit that day though, so there was some comeuppence....

How do they go around the camp shop though? Do they lean over the fridge and freezers and get sausages entangled with sausages and plums entangled with plums.

EEk and as for catching their manhood in the wire shopping basket as they lift it up to the counter to pay

It wouldn't bother me someone else do it but I don't fancy it at all for myself.

Mostly in our climate I would be too cold and when it gets sunny I would be worried about burning.

I just found out there is a nudist colony near the cattery that we use - I can't imagine why.

There's no shop on the campsites we go to. They are pretty basic. It's part of the getting back to nature thing.

We get dressed and go into town to the local market/supermarket. If the children want ice-cream, we have to get dressed and walk down the lane.

I know there are camp sites with mini markets etc but we avoid them because although we are naturists, we find the idea of shopping naked a bit strange.

I don't venture across many nudists meself

I can't help but think they must get some thrill from it.

in relation to swingers which someone brought up, my grandparents were swingers with the neighbours of the street. I found out as an adult, but then later found out that my grandma detested it and was forced into it.

And if nudists wish to do so, thats their right. But if their children become uncomfortable then cover up.

I was forced unwillingly into nudism as a child. I asked to wear a swimming costume and was told off for being silly. I spent a lot of time reading facing down on my tummy as my body developed. It's fucking shit. And however much nudists (I refuse to cloak it nicely as "Naturists") think it's not pervy, you can take my word as a former just-developing young girl forced to be naked around 100s of swinging bollocks men that there are plenty of old pervs in nudist camps.

This is an old resurrected thread

Hang on! Why didn't I know about this sooner? Nudist holiday camps?
I spent our first family holiday with my arms in a sink washing baby clothes and now you lot tell me I could have just packed a few extra bottles of sunblock?!
I thought I was doing well insisting on access to a washing machine.

Seriously, this is the kind of thing they should cover in parenting classes.

So how does it all work? Would we have to wear clothes on the plane? Hmm we probably would......

It depends on who you consider a nudist.

I lived in the Netherlands for a while, and would never call myself a nudist. Neither would the many people of all ages who went to the local spa near where I lived at the time, who enjoyed a sauna, swim and sat in the garden of the spa, all without clothes and with only a towel to sit on. I dislike a sauna with clothes on which is very uncomfortable to me, and wish there were places like the one I went to in the Netherlands here in the UK. I have no interest in spending a week at a campsite without clothes, but a sauna in winter is lovely.
