My introduction to nudity with others was when I was about 10 years old. Five or six of us boys formed a "naked club" (boys only, started as a dare, in a loft above one of our family's garages). I guess it was probably about the most naughty, rebellious thing we could think up. We would meet in the loft, take off our clothes, and just hang out (no pun intended). We told some of the other kids about it, and a few others joined in. Sometimes we would go to the bush area near where we lived, strip off, and spend the whole day playing naked. You know, just running around, playing tag, whatever. We would also go over to one another's houses if nobody else was home and do stupid stuff like daring each other to run out from the basement door, through the backyard to the garage, and back. If you were really brave, you had to walk it. Just kid's stuff really, but I know the important thing to me was not the dares and perceived naughtiness. It was the feeling of being able to be naked with others, and the wonderful feeling of being nude outside. As a result, I spent my teenage years going naked in our home whenever nobody else was home. I am still a nudist some 30 years later, primarily in my home, but I also enjoy our city's nude beach and nude hiking. I was just wondering if anyone else here had a similar experience as a kid and, if so, did it lead to their own interest in the nudist lifestyle.

Bob, I was wondering if others had been through something similar. I agree with your point about society's rules and a few bad apples. I sometimes think the whole thing about the dares (risking being seen by neighbors, etc.) may have just been an excuse for the fact that we all just were having a good time going without clothes (as in, OK we're naked, now what do we do?)

When I was about 8 yoa a group of us neighborhood kids went to the woods where we always hung out,we have been there dozens of times to play,one day one of my friends dared all of us to strip,now there was a mixture of boys and girls in the group and no one jumped at the idea.finally the friend who made the dare took off his clothes I was shocked but intriged ,another boy stripped than a girl in the group stripped down to her panties of course she was to young to wear bra,now they were picking on me, I finally gave in to the peer pressure and now I was nude infront of three other boys and three girls ,one girl chicken out and ran home and the other boy and girl remained dressed but we all ran and played in the wood for about a hour and then headed home.Back on our street we were confronted by the girl who left mother who threated to talk to all our parents about our being naked in the woods,we of course denied it and apparently outnumber the creditability of the girl and nothing else was said,unfortantly none of us went nude in the woods again and I can't remember why !

At our local club this summer, there has been a great increase on the number of families with children. This subject almost always comes up when we chat with our friends and the people we just meet. I tell the story that when I was 10 to 13 years old, we lived out in the sticks. My closest playmates, two brothers, were over 1/2 mile away. We were *always* out in the woods or the pastures doing the goofy stuff that boys do. We were always *daring* each other to do different things. Well. One time, the object of the dare was to skinny dip. It was one of the brothers that did the dare. He said it was great and then dared us to join. After that day, we always found ourselves at the creek skinny dipping. When I would get home, my mother always commented how I smelled like a stinky creek. They were alot cleaner then they are now. My reply, as always, was that we were throwing rocks in the creek and splashing each other. We never swam long for fear of being caught because a farmer would happen by us every so often.
What great times they were. I still have the same feelings when I think of those times. I still get a little rush. When I watch the kids play and do the things kids do at a pool, I can just about imagine how they feel. They are *ALLOWED* to be nude. They are *ALLOWED* to swim nude. And. In a nice clean pool. Not a stinky creek. I would not give up those memories though.

NTLnTAA mentioned a great increase in the number of familes with children at his local club. I know that during my pre- and early teens, I would have loved my family to have been members of a club where we could all go naked together, and also the opportunity to play with other kids nude, openly, with my family's knowledge. I won't even go into how much I would have liked to be able to go naked reoutinely at home as well, and share that with my family. (Would have loved to have even known that other people and whole families actually DID that sort of thing!)

Even though it was a much more conservative and restrictive era when I grew up, even today I still think most kids (10, 11, 12, 13 etc), would find it difficult to be the one to approach their parents and family members. I mean, how would you say that you would like to go naked at home, much less that you would like your parents and family members to join in. I know I certainly couldn't have told them that my friends and I played together naked in the woods, and in each other's houses when nobody is home. Or even that I went naked in our home whenever I was alone. Just can't imagine it.

Yet it seems that lots of people have stories about nude experiences with their friends, ranging from dares leading to nudity, skinny-dipping, playing naked in the woods, or even a "naked club". After talking to other people, it seems the whole thing is almost a rite-of-passage in growing up. Does it mean that kids have a natural affinity for nudity, or is it just rebelling against one of Western Society's greatest taboos?

I tend to lean towards a natural affinity for nudity in youth. In our "club", there was certainly no modesty. Of course we were all boys, and at that age didn't want anything to do with girls. But once at our place in the woods, or in one of our houses, we couldn't get our clothes off fast enough.

Maybe its a mix of both the wonderful feeling of freedom AND a touch of the "forbidden". I do recall one of the really guilty pleasures for me was the feeling of walking throughout somebody else's house without any clothes on.

When I was about 8, I had a neighbor friend about the same age and we would spend summers at either their families camp in the east TX piney woods or my families beachhouse. We had a code: "BOT". Which meant naked. We would make the usual dares, which often involved our older sisters, but always innocent. When I went to Catholic Boys Camp, we would hang-out in the camp-house sans-clothes and play games, no problem. It is very scary knowing what some adults would do to take advantage of normal kid exploration/innocense.

"Wearing nothing is devine, naked is a state of mind."

I wish I could be eight again and return to those woods by my childhood home,I would enjoy running among the tree naked and unashamed with my friends,Knowing what I know now I surely would have became a nudist then instead of years later

This thread brings to mind what I have always considered to be one of the more bizarre experiences of my youth. The passage of more than 50 years has erased many of the details from my memory, but some aspects are still pretty clear.

I couldn't have been more than ten years old, probably a few years less than that. I had a friend who was about my age, perhaps a year older, who lived down the block on the other side of the street. He was an only child who lived with just his mother who I think was divorced. She must have had a job, because she was away from home all day. (All of my other friend's mothers were stay-at-home house wives as was my mom.)

This friend was considered to be a little strange by most of my other friends, so he didn't have much contact with them. On occasion he would invite me into his house to play while his mother was at work. This was quite a novel experience because nowhere else was it possible for me to be in someone's home when no adults were present. I can't remember the first time it happened, but at some point he suggested that we take off our clothes and continue our play nude. I can't say for sure, but I think I was probably somewhat reluctant to do this. I assume he must have somehow convinced me because eventually I relented, and we stripped. After removing our clothes we didn't do anything that we hadn't been doing while we were clothed. I actually really enjoyed being nude, but there was a lot of anxiety about the possibility of being caught. We would have been hard-pressed to come up with a rational explanation for our behavior if we had been discovered.

We did this a few (perhaps several) times, and never did get caught. No other kids were ever invited to participate, and nothing noteworthy ever occurred while we were engaged in our naked foolishness. Until now I've never told anyone about this, and I suspect that my friend never told anyone else either.

By the time I left grammar school my friend and I had drifted apart, and I don't believe we had any further contact. Perhaps he and his mother moved out of the neighborhood.

Shortly after starting junior high school I fell in with a group of boys who introduced me to skinny dipping in a not-too-distant stream which I also found to be quite enjoyable. There were never any girls who participated. I daresay that if there had been I probably would have been long gone. Being naked in front of the opposite sex at that age required more courage than I would have been able to muster.

I probably should have recognized these signs and admitted to my addiction at that time, but I held out until last year, when I was 63, before venturing out into the wonderful world of social nudism. I wish I had recognized the early signs.

Have a nude day everybody,
Bill

I started this topic as I felt that, although we all have come to this lifestyle through various paths, I felt our enjoyment of nudism may have been triggered through similar activites as kids. Speaking for myself, I know those early dares of being caught without clothes, playing with my friends nude in the woods, and the feeling of running around other kids houses naked soon changed into something else entirely.

Some may feel that these early experiences were more about sexual awakening and experimentation, but nothing could be further from the truth. As BareBill stated above, once we were naked we didn't do anything we hadn't been doing clothed.

As I went through my teens, I really looked forward to finding times I could go without clothes, both in my home and outdoors, enjoying that hard-to-describe feeling we here have all came to appreciate in later stages of our lives. With many variations, I think those early childhood dares and furtive removal of clothes among friends are probably pretty common among those of us who have embraced nudism. And no matter what seems to lead to our later choice of nudism as a lifestyle, those early childhood memories likely provided some of the impetus.

In my early teens, actually starting around age 11 I enjoyed the freedom of being nude around our high-rise condo whenever my family was away. The moment they left I would strip and stay that way until they were scheduled to return. I especially enjoyed going on the balcony and feeling the warmth of the sun. Around age 13 I yearned for more than just the odd opportunity around the condo so I began to bicycle to remote beaches that were 4 to 5 miles from where we lived. At first I was very careful to find a secluded beach area and spend 30 to 60 minutes naked on the beach. My beach visits increased and my parents thought the bike riding was a great way to get exercise as I was gone for hours at a time. On one of my excursions I ventured a bit further to a beach I had heard was frequented by the dancers from the local casino show, why not see what I was missing at age 14. When I rode up i saw a few cars parked at the beach. In the coves of the rock formations were 7 men and women tanning naked on beach towels. They saw me right away and waved. Being a brave young lad I walked over and asked if it was ok if I joined them, stripping as they said no problem. From that day forward this became my number one beach location and most of the time met up with the same group of dancers. My parents were friends of some of the entertainers in the casino show and at Christmas that same year our family was invited to a Christmas day party to the home of the show lead. As we entered I recognized my beach friends and my parents were somewhat taken back when they seemed to all know me! Anyway, until i left for University just after turning 18, I spent four great years visiting this beach.
Today, now married for 28 years and age 50, my wife and I have rediscovered outdoor beach nudity and we're enjoying every opportunity to be free.

Thought I would never mention this youthful experience until I read the posts in this forum.

Code-named the 'N Club', and yours truly as the instigator, between ages 9 to 11 several of us guys would play Tarzan, hide-and-seek, etc. along the heavily shrubbed river bank at the outskirts of our small city. It was great adventure fun. Parents never knew but would have been shocked.

All of us were use to nude swimming at the YMCA (and Y camp at the lake). It was exhilarating to be nude outdoors with others. Nothing sexual, and no girls involved. It was always a concern that we'd remember where our clothes were cached ----- there were a couple of anxious times. Never swam as the river was too swift and dangerous.

A few times I would go there alone. This was in keeping with my life-long joy of being naked outdoors. Clandestine experiences started in my pre-school years, I believe around age 5 (the only time we got caught was with the girls). It would be 20 years later that I first experienced a social family-oriented nudist resort.

I have no idea if the other guys ever became life-long nudists.
As for me, it is mostly personal/private nudity, with occasional public and social venues. Naked seems so natural to me; textiles don't.

smoothNtanned's experiences are not dissimilar from mine. It really seems quite common for boys to go through a period of nudity outdoors with their pals (or alone). Doesn't seem to be a thing girls do, but could be wrong. And the post from davidandcathy mentions again the going naked at home when the family is away... something that I have described almost as a rite-of-passage (male, anyway). I have often felt that most (not all certainly) people who become interested in nudism in later life are male, who then in turn try to interest their partners. And if so, maybe its because of past-remembered pleasant childhood experiences of nudity with their friends, around the house, etc. bluezootnude described his first childhood nude experience as "not so much a dare as a lets compare thing". Although I'm sure we looked, that was never a part of our "club", otherwise I'm sure we would have just pulled down our pants and, well, "compared". Our thing was we had to be completely naked in our "club" - I remember that seemed really important to us - and then it was a matter of just goofing around and having fun. I've often wondered if girls at that age did anything similar, ourdoors, around the house, etc. Perhaps not, but if so, too bad. Might be easier in later life for we guys to encourage our partners to join us in the lifestyle.

Actually beachalive and smoothNtanned, many of us ladies also enjoyed our childhood nudity. I too spent time alone at home when my parents and sisters were all away, in the nude. It felt so natural and comfortable. We also had a backyard pool which at every opportunity i would skinny dip in. I was always the first to volunteer to spend the night in the camper parked in our back yard in the summer so i could slip out late at night and skinny dip. this memory was from around the ages of 14 to 16.
My sisters who were 1 year and 2 years younger did join me later in our teens skinny dipping in the pool.
When david and I met it was so natural for us to spend all our time at home nude. Today at age 50 we enjoy our freedom from clothes at every opportunity.
