I have always enjoyed nudity. Don't no why
But I never been to a nudist resort.and would like to go But i am single and not sure how i would be accepted. I discussed this on cyber nude once and it was funny how many single girls and guys felt the same way. I am straight
but girls around my area of Michigan think I am weird because of my views.

I was also concerned about being received at a nudist club, as I am a single male. So, I contacted all of the landed and unlanded clubs within driving distance of me. The ones that responded have been very helpful in helping me understand how to become involved as a single male - something I thought was difficult. I would also suggest, as I did for myself, that you try to meet with an officer of a club on "neutral" grounds first. That will help them prequalify you, as well as give you time to ask anything that might help you. Good luck.

Unless a club has a couples/families only policy, you shouldn't worry too much about being accepted. Just be yourself and join in the activities that interest you. Once you find a club that you like, it's a good idea to visit regularly, so that you become one of the familiar faces. That makes it easier to strike up conversations in the hot tub or restaurant. Cheri's recommendation of Turtle Lake is a good one.

Rob, I am married but visit a nudist resort alone. A loner I am but the other nudists are comfortable with me and friendly.
Contact resorts before you go and make sure they will grant you entry. And then go! As a fellow nudist told me before his next assignment to Iraq: "another day in paradise."
Best Wishes, Jim

Just a personal observation: My wife and I were at our club recently and there was a first time 30ish single guy in the lodge. Believing that it's fairly unlikely that an unknown single guy will be engaged in conversation by a female, I tried to be friendly and chat with him to make him feel comfortable with the whole experience. I tried. I got the clear feeling that he was very uncomfortable talking to a nude male and that the fact that I approached him to talk meant that I was somehow 'coming on to him'. I tried to allay the fear by telling stories about how MY WIFE and I did thus and so at the club. He wandered off, never to be seen again. You first time single guys need to realize that sooner or later you will actually see another naked male. And he may even introduce himself, shake your hand and talk. Worry about your social skills more than the erection that will most likely never happen or if you will meet the nude woman of your dreams, also unlikely. Just go to have a good time and get comfortable in your own skin.

Thank you all who responed. Your tips are helpfull hope fully I will get the chance to go this summer.
I ve heard of turtle creek. I just wish there was a resort a little closer to my area. I actually had a chance to go once but unfortunetly got started late. the girl who was going to take me told me of another club but after reading the web sight the word swinger was mentioned so we bulked. We talked about hanging out at her house with her roomate becase she was also a nudist but decided mutaly that it was not a good idea to expose her twelve year old to a stanger at home even though she was raising him to be a nudist.
unforuntently we never got back together and have not had a chance since. But I thionk we made the right decision.

My suggestion. Contact the resort to make sure all is well with being single, or married and coming alone (as I was). Then just make up your mind and go. You will be glad you did. I have been to 4 different clubs in my area and was well recieved by all. I never had a feeling of "Who's this guy?" from anyone I have met. Go, enjoy, be yourself...

My suggestion is to go to the resort alone the first few times, so as to experience the feel of nudity. Then you would have a better idea about nudism before asking your female friends.
I too advise that you ought to first telephone the resort to make sure that there is no problem about going singly. This is although most resorts would welcome you as a single.
Naturally, Catbird

Yep; I did it that way: first I went alone for 2 or 3 summers; no one at any of our local resorts gave me a strange or dirty look. Once I felt comfortable with social nudity, I invited my wife and we have been attending naturist resorts together regularly for the last 4 years. Good luck!

I have been to Turtle Lake only once. I went with my best friend (another male), but at a few times I felt a little as an outsider. While in the pool, a few older people, particularly older women seemed to be giving us odd looks, but once we struck up some conversation everything seemed natural.
However, I still feel a little out of place when I and my friend are the only younger males (25yr old each) around either people that are older than us, 40+, or younger than us, (15 or younger).
We are going to the AANR conf this week, so hopefully there will be many more our age.

I suggest you go. You need the confidence to know for a fact what you are talking about before you try to introduce a newbe women to nudism. Then, I think you need to bring women with you or get involved with a singles group there where there are single women. As a nudist/naturist, you are a person who believes a women should choose the course of her life, respect her body as wholesome and good, and that nobody should have the power to decide her body (or yours) is a sex object and force her to wear a burka or a bikini when there is no need. As a nudist/naturist, you have a right to be confident and proud. Some women will walk away, but others will be interested in someone with moral fibre and enough confidence to take a different, but wholesome, stance about our bodies and nature. Do it.

Nudist resorts are more receptive to single even males than the were years ago, they relize singles have money too. When I use to be a regular at resorts even after my being divorced I always felt more comfortable with the weekday group than the weekend groups even though I had been a member for years, some weekdays I would be the only one there, kinda like having my own shangrala.

I'm trying to get into nudism but the only resort remotely near me prohibits single men. I would feel weird inviting someone to go if I haven't experienced it yet.
Any suggestions on how to absolve this. And why do they bar single men but not single women?

The underlying idea behind a ban or quota on single men, whether valid or not, is that too many single guys will make the women feel uncomfortable. There are many clubs which do not discriminate against single males, but if you are married, they expect you to attend with your wife.
