I have just recently started to spend all my time at home nude, really relaxing! I do have young children and do not go around nude while they are awake. This morning I was nude as my son was awake, no reaction from him. My wife did ask my to put on something, I did. How does one go about gaining understanding from my wife that I desire to be nude while at home or when we do not have guests. Also, is it normal to get random erections? I'm not nude for a sexual reason but for the feeling of freedom and I just feel better nude.
Please someone reply and help! |

I would have never imagined my wife, given that we both come from conservative culture, would ever allow my nudism. Well, she did not just allow but joined along. We visited several nudist resorts together with our 6 yr old. Lately she is always nude from just before bedtime till morning coffee regardless of whether I am naked or clothed. |

A nudist resort is a good way to begin. Typically a host couple or host person will meet you at the nudist resort office and that provides the best opprtunity to shed your clothing before beginning a tour of the resort. That way when you get to areas where there are more people like at the pool you will already be nude like everybody else. It's easier to blend in that way. We have all heard it said that "it's easier than you think". Well, it really is.

Sailawaybob, I wish we had all those things available but much to my shegrin I do not. Just have to do the clothing optional resort that were mentioned by Warmskin. She's going to do it for me but really I'm doing it for her, she just doesn't know that! :-) just trying to get her to relieve some stress. |

a great way to get someone to understand / participate is maybe the backporch or backyard if secluded enough and when the kids are away - you know us time but without clothes. also if nearby a nude beach that way they can remain somewhat clothed an as they gain a comfort level shed clothes. nudist clubs are great but to someone apprehensive it can be overwhelming to see a bunch of naked folks sitting around the pool. |

Glad to hear it, Cavanudist! Little by little, folks can change their mind. Interesting how when people can play with a concept, and then think it was their idea all along, they can easily go ahead and partake of it. I guess all you have to do is plant the seed and see if it grows. If it does, you are doing fine.

Thanks everyone for the advice , she is starting to come around and wants to go with me to a clothing optional resort. So I'm pretty excited about that, I think once she sees the different body types and that I'm not there to stare but to be nude and relax, she might join in. |

CAVANUDIST The resort that Warmskin mentioned, Avalon, is VERY nice. Well maintained and friendly. It is c/o ( clothing optional ) so your wife can stayed clothed as your nude. The only exception is in the pool areas. One indoor pool and one outside, both large. Small bar and good restaurant. Nice big barn for dancing or whatever. They have cottages and a lodge, all for rent. This place is in the middle of nowhere. You must ask for a map and specific driving instructions. We've only been to a few resorts but I'll tell ya,,, this is top drawer on my list. Have fun and go slow with the wife, she may come around. |

There is a nudist resort in Virginia, on the east side of that commonwealth.

Also,there is Avalon nudist resort 25 miles northwest of Winchester, Virginia. It's in West Virginia.

I have no idea how good these two resorts are.
It's always difficult to introduce another person to nudism if they might not be inclined to try it out initially. It's not normal for that person's daily life, and it may not be congruent to how they were brought up. Also, it depends on their attitude in general.
I have preached gradualism when it comes go converting someone, or that is to say, not converting someone immediately, or overnight. If your wife does not like seeing you nude at all in everyday life, then you have a harder sell. You might negotiate with her to get to be nude more often at home. If she's amenable to that, and it becomes a constant behavior, you might try "upping the ante," and have her try it out herself when you two are alone.
Let her know the plus side (it's all plus!!) of nudism - the comfort of it. If she buys that and tries it out for a few hours, and likes it, you are well on your way.
Her trying that out in a nudist resort might be intimidating. As Sailaway Bob says, you could send for some AANR literature that depicts normal nudist life, she would feel more self-confident, especially knowing that few women look like Miss America at a resort.
I conceive we're all nervous about something completely new, socially - we want to know that whatever we get into socially, we'll fit in with the crowd. That dismisses awkwardness and discomfort.
On the other hand, as Bob also wisely said, some people will never accept nudism. The question then might be, will she be okay with you going to a nudist resort by yourself? Her thoughts about that could pure jealousy, or she may grumble and be okay with it.
It's really hard to predict.
Don't worry about erections. Too many men around to kill any sense of arousal. Also, there is nothing sexual going on. After a while, it becomes very routine, and you could even be bored if there is nothing much to do. A man by himself may not be as welcome as a couple would be. I can attest to that. I find senior couples are easier to talk with. Younger folks seem to think your hitting on them if you say, "Hi."

i would either contact AANR or maybe check Amazon for some books on nudism and try to get her to read over them to see that nudism is just another lifestyle that some folks accept and enjoy, just remember it's not for everyone and some will never accept it. |

As for erections, when you start going to nudist venues and there are other men around, that problem will disappear.

Have to agree with you FireProf, all I want to do is to feel relaxed when I'm not at work, but I do respect my wife's wishes.
I remember when I was young and we lived in the country, I would go outside nude when I knew everyone was gone. It felt pretty cool to feel the breeze across my body and I enjoyed the time outside.
So, I know I'm a nudist, its just taken me a while to realize it.
The last statement was off topic but wanted to say it publicly "I'm a nudist!" |

First; I don't know what "gnarlyoldman's" marital status is but if he is married, well then ... he's got a different type of relationship with his wife than many of us have! hahaha
I have found that most nudist men that have that type of attitude are either widowed or divorced. They have taken the stance that they will now do whatever the hell they want and think every else should as well.
It is easy for someone that does not have anyone else to answer to but themselves to take that attitude but it certainly not that easy for others who have significant others they are responsible to and for ... namely, a wife and kids and grandkids.
What is also troubling is that some of these men think that their way is the only way and if not their way ... take the highway! I don't think many of us would even care to have that type of life that we are beholding to no one and don't care a thing about what people think or say.
I certainly do; when it comes from my wife, my girls, my grandkids and my close friends.
Loves being naked. Plays well with others! |
