I tried the search, and nothing came up, so I'm forced to tip my newbie hand, again.
Today at work, I was thinking about what my first meeting in a nudist-friendly home would be like.
When you visit friends that are other nudists, what's the protocol for disrobing? Do you ask if they mind if you make yourself comfortable, or is that not an issue? What do you do with the clothes at that point? Do you bring your own towel, or does the host offer you one?
I know it sounds a little strange, but that was one of the awkward situations that popped into my mind while pondering the scenario.

If attending a home that is nudist, I always bring my own towel, and if they have a hot tub or pool, I bring two; one with which to dry off and one to sit on.
I might stay dressed until asked if I wanted to disrobe. If it's a good friend's home, I know there's no problem in asking "where can I get comfortable?". If it's a first meeting at this person's home, I would go into the home and wait a few minutes and then ask if you can disrobe if you're scheduled to be there any length of time. If it's just for an hour or so, I might not bother.

I think it's a very valid situation to ponder. My first consideration would be how long I'm going to be there. If it's just a short time, then probably disrobing isn't even a question. If the visit is to actually spend some time together and they are usually nude at home, I would plan on disrobing almost immediately and would definitely take my own towel. There's no reason for me to create more work for them by using one of the their towels.
If they are nude when I arrived, all questions are already answered.
When it happens, enjoy it!

For me, it's depended on the circumstances. I've developped my own personal etiquette in this matter.
If I visit a nudist home and my hosts are dressed upon my arrival, I wait for them to propose disrobing. I will not even bring it up unless they do first. There might be a reason why they are dressed at that time, and I want to wait to find out what it is before even bringing up nudity.
If I visit a nudist home for the first time and everyone is nude, I'll wait until being offered to make myself comfortable. If it's a home I've visited on several occasions, then I'll probably bring it up first.
If I'm just passing through town and making a short stop at a nudist's home, I'll still go nude if my hosts are. I remember one incident where I was staying with some nudist friends and another nudist lady popped in. Our host encouraged her to join us; we were all nude at the time. The lady replied that she was just "passing through" and stayed for a couple of hours, the only dressed person in the room. I could tell that our host was slightly miffed about it. I just find it courteous to disrobe if invited to do so, even if I'm just "passing through."
The same guidelines hold true if I'm the host (which has happened a tad less often). If I know them well, I'll answer the door nude so they can rest assured that nudity is indeed ok. I'll provide towels; do not care if they brought their own.
I will add that everything I know about being a good nudist host, I learned from Cheri. By far the best I've ever known!
