Moving into a female friend's home (I am male) and wondering if any of you have had success with letting room mates know that you are a nudist ESPECIALLY with different gender.
It is a big home, yet a lot of common areas.

Perhaps you could have brought up that subject prior to moving in, BR. Of course, she might not have liked that idea, but then you simply could have told her you'd stay dressed. The past is the past, though.
That's a tough question. Well, maybe you could see how she feels about that now. I'm no Dear Abby, though. I hope someone smarter than I will give a good answer for you in this topic.
One question - does she work, or otherwise leave the house when you are home by yourself? Of course, if she did come home early, you might have your nudity interrupted with possible awkwardness. I had that happen to me once, under different circumstances.

Warmskin is absolutely correct, it would have been prudent for you to settle this issue before you and the lady agreed to share living quarters, but that is water under the bridge. I'd like to suggest a bold approach at this point. (Of course you'll have to decide if this approach might trigger your eviction. Only you can evaluate that risk.)
I think that you should act like it is entirely normal for you to go about your affairs nude while you are in your new home and await a reaction. When asked to explain your behavior you can truthfully assert that you are a nudist and that your behavior is consistent with your beliefs. Assuming that this does not provoke your eviction the worst case is that you will be forbidden from being nude in the common areas when your roommate is at home.
I really believe more of us should act like being nude is the natural state for a human being, and make our clothing-compulsive friends have to explain to us why we should wear clothes when it is unnecessary.
Good luck man, and let us know how things turn out.

I have to jump in on this topic. Blackrebel, if you have not yet moved in, you need to tell the girl that you are a nudist and see how she feels about it. There are a lot of emotional issues that can and will come into play if you don't. Also, a friendship is at stake. Honestly, from this woman's perspective, if I were her, I would be kicking your naked tush to the curb if you surprised me with that fact after you had moved in. Out of respect for her, you need/must tell her first!

Since you're friends, you should have no problem telling her. As others have said, doing so earlier would have been best. It's possible that I will be living with a female friend of mine next year and I've told her way in advance that I am a nudist. I don't think she's completely okay with it, but it's possible that she will come around. Time helps and in this case, I would probably have the apartment first and she would be the one moving in.
Ideally, this kind of thing would not be more troublesome because the individuals are of different sexes. Perhaps I should blame things like sex-divided locker rooms for this.

One more angle -- If she works a day shift, you could get a job where you'd work a swing or night shift. That way, you could have 8+ hours to yourself at home. With that approach, you might not have to tell her anything, unless she came home earlier than you expected, one day. Then you would have much to talk about!!!!

yes i think it would be a good idea to tell her before you move in but if you have already moved in i would sit down and have the nudist talk, i would hate to live anywhere where i couldn't be nude the majority of the time.
