From the point in time I can remember from I was about eleven when I first began to to enjoy my body and being comfortable nude. I can remember my Dad taking me into the sauna we had in our condo building at age eleven and when he stripped his bathing suit off to enjoy the sauna I thought nothing of doing the same. After that when ever I had the opportunity around the condo, rest of the family out of the house, I would strip right away and enjoy the freedom of walking around nude. I would venture on to the balcony and enjoy the suns rays. At eleven I also stopped wearing pj's and wore underwear to bed, they came off the moment I was under the covers. I know my Mum knew I was sleeping nude as she found my underwear many times lodged at the base of the bed in the sheets! My parents never said anything.
I began to enjoy outdoor public nudity when i was thirteen. i grew up in the Bahamas and we had lots of great remote beaches etc. I would ride my bike about 5 miles or so to a remote beach area called Barbary Beach on Grand Bahama, park the bike and walk the beach nude. On one of my visits I arrived to find some cars parked and some people on the beach. As I approached behind the rocks I could see it was a group of four women and a man tanning in the nude. One of the ladies saw me and motioned me over. I learned they were dancers from the local casino show from Britain. We chatted and I joined them for the afternoon. After that meeting I met up with them almost once per week at least and there were always different people but all from the show. This continued for the better part of five years until i moved away to go to University.

Body awareness started at age 12. That was the first time I became aware of my body changing. Up until that point my body just seemed to be there. I was 12 when my first whiskers sprouted. It was the first time the "unmentionable stiffness" came to rear its ugly head - so to speak. At that point I began to enjoy being nude as a conscious decision separate and apart from bath time.

I'd have to say that I'm still not completely comfortable some of the time. Sometimes, I just feel like I'm being watched.
And I know what you're thinking:
"He's just paranoid."
Well, that's what they all want you to think!

who can forget those school showers after gym class that started in junior high,i think everyone was terrified the first couple times but after that it just seem natural even though it wasn't coed. several years later when i went to a nudist resort it took seconds to strip nude and fit in to the lifestyle,i think alot of the youth now days miss out on what the older generation grew up on and that maybe why you don't see as many young nudist as you do the older ones

My girlfiend at the time and I were in our late teens - but that was in the late 1970s - and nude was the new "black" - at least for us. This was at our favourite beach though, nowhere else. When I finally married my wife (a different woman)was less keen, and so it happened only occassionally. Still does - can't predict it. Sometimes she is cool to go nude and go for walks on the beach and at other times she will not even go topless when there is really only me and her on the beach. I love it all the time i can now!

Thats an interesting point sailawaybob. Having grown up in the "younger generation" I agree. Unless delibrate effort is made to remove body/taboo inabitions younger people today seem to be very body shy. Its as if the shy awkward period that comes wtih preadolescence never goes away! Very diisturbing. I guess all we can really do is raise more of our children to be nudists and hope it sticks.

I felt comfortable being nude as far back as I can remember. I was what you might call a home or closet nudist since I never wore clothes around my house or to sleep. It always felt more comfortable and free that way. Also as I got older and I put on weight I had issues with how I looked in clothes. Being nude helped me overcome those issues.

We have only started to be comfortable nude since our nest became empty. We still haven't experienced social nudity, although that is coming soon. I am 61 and my wife is 59. Better late than never!

I've always been comfortable nude in private, or in intimate situations (essentially still private). To date, I have only been nude in a non-private area once where people could see me. I had the opportunity to enjoy a hot tub with co-workers (that had only met me 3 days earlier, and we still hadn't had a chance to talk -- essentially our first meeting on a personal level), but I didn't have a bathing suit. One of them suggested that I didn't need one, so I went for it. It was in the common area of a hotel. I'm surprised I did it, too. But I bonded with my co-workers big time. They loved me after that.
I was 27 at the time.

I was dreaming about nudity as an 8 year old, reading encyclopedia pages about the ancient romans being nude etc. Never looked back from there.

At birth. But somewhere along the way, I lost it. Got comfortable nude again as a young adult. --I think I was young once. Never mind. I still am.

At What Age Were You Comfortable Nude?
