Human nature being what it is we will allways look in the textile world or not! We (I hope) (at least I don't) go to a resort to look, I go 2 enjoy myself and enjoy the freedom of not having 2 worry if someone likes my outfit or whatever! The free 2 be me club still has an open membership! No charge!!

Like it has been said, love to see others naked. Not in a sexual way. At times I will look at a woman and thing those thoughts. But just for a sec or two. Then see them enjoying being nude. Seeing others nude and being seen urself goes with the territory

When we're in the textile world, as most of us are most of the time, we're always looking at other people's bodies. We look at the bulge of a woman's top, her legs, her rear. Similar with a guy -- look at his butt and crotch. Then, our imaginations take hold and we wonder just what's under the clothing. When we're in a nudist setting, everything is there to view so why wouldn't we look at the same things? And there is nothing left to the imagination!

hello all,
i'm new in town, my hunny and i are talking about jumping into a nudist environment. i think we're 86% there, so this comment is based on what i think, not know for sure.
i have always preferred my skin to the trappings of most of my clothing, though some textiles feel yummy to snuggle up in. the great northeast doesn't always lend itself to skin.my hunny is a quiet unassuming guy and when we were seriously dating/engaged had to get used to the fact that i skinned down as soon as possible. i think he adjusted ok (smile).
as to if i would watch bodies... once i got comfortable, i would absolutely look. for one thing, one of my reasons for wanting to experience the group nudist thing is because i am an eating disorder chick. my head guy has helped me a great deal by telling me to look at every body i see. one of my homework assignments was to go to a mall and watch. body image dysmorph stuff... there is a photograph i found from the twenties, a row of dancing women all in a line, all nude. gorgeous! and each body completely different, and so totally not the "norm" for what is considered magazine gorgeous now.
my other reason for looking is that i am a massage therapist, and i love the way bodies work. i love to connect how someone stands to how their pelvis is tipped to where they hold their head to how they hold their arms. since i have graduated from school, i have seen bodies in such a different way. its like in the matrix, when the guy is looking at the code and sees blond redhead brunette...
i see piriformis, traps, hamstrings... what an amazing bit of engineering we all are.
of course i have to balance enrapture at seeing the workings of the human body with the comfort level of the person i am seeing.

Love your answers, everybody. This is a cool topic. Do we look? I'd say everybody does, but it's an individual thing. People have their own reasons for looking, appreciating, remembering. That's totally cool.
Do I like to look? Yep. Do I mind being seen? Nope. Do I worry about being leered at. Never.
The human body is a masterful amalgamation of artistry and engineering. Female. Male. It doesn't matter. Each gender splendidly exhibits the consummate genius of God's handiwork. And, no, I'm not a religious freak.
Look. Be seen. Enjoy. Love it all ... always.
Peace.

Alright. Now explain why people should be comfortable bringing their children to areas where adults are getting thrills from scoping out naked bodies.

To thornapplebison:
Because, people are merely observing and thinking ... and behaving well. Any AANR-affiliated nudist facility is very, very well guarded by security people who are trained to look for any lewd or lascivious behavior. If they see it, the offender is gone, male or female.
Go to www.amazon.com and search for the book entitled "Women In Nude Recreation, the WINR Circle" by author Sally DePree. The blurb online about this book should answer your question exceedingly well.
Sally is the mother of 4 kids, now grown, and raised ALL of them in The Nudist Scene. Her concerns were your concerns. She answers them all in her book. My wife has the book. I've met Sally Depree and talked at length with her husband, Jack DePree, who was one of AANR's greatest Presidents.
Nobody's kids will have any problem whatsoever at an AANR-affiliated resort. I had the same concerns you do ... years ago. Experience has taught me, "There's NO problem for your kids at all ... if the facility is AANR-affiliated.
Go, take your kids and enjoy an awesome experience. Years later, they'll thank you for introducing them to it.
IMO!
Peace.

I looked up the book on amazon, but it didn't really say much. I haven't bought it.
Aren't voyeurism and exhibitionism lewd and lascivious? Maybe people aren't acting on their desires beyond scoping out some naked flesh, but I still wouldn't want my kids running around in a sexually-charged adult area.
There are kids at the place my wife and I visit in the summer, and I would bring my kids there to let them all hang out together. I think the kids have a very different experience of it than the adults. For them, it's very innocent.
It disturbs me how innocent it is not for the adults. I wish it were. I must admit that I also enjoy scoping out bodies of all types. That's not to say that I want to sex up everyone there. But it's not an altogether different sort of pleasure than I'd get in a strip club...just a different context. I wish I could be like the youngsters, though, and let it really not matter.
This summer, we'll offer the kids the chance to come along with us. If they want to, fine. If not, fine.

My first visit to the nearest naturist venue brought a feeling of euphoria at the ability to be free of clothes and the feel of sun and the breeze on my naked skin. The club member that greeted me and opened the gate was an attractive lady. After I parked my car she took me to the office to register. At that point her garment was now around her waist. and I marveled in the beauty of her body. At no time did I think of her as a sexual object, only as a beautiful human being. As we left the office for a tour of the club she doffed her garment entirely and asked if I wanted to remain clothed for the tour. I immediately removed what clothes I had on and felt the freedom of all the great feeling of what I before only imagined. As we toured the club my feelings were only of nudism. There was no sexual stimulation at all. Only that feeling of jubilation that at last I am reveling in being without clothes.

thornapplebison, people are going to be people whether clothed or not. What do you think is on their minds on a textile beach? Or at a mall? Or pretty much anywhere, whether kids are present or not. I think a good argument could be made for there being *less* gawking and *fewer* lewd thoughts among groups of nudists.

People are going to look no matter what we have all said that. I don't look at guys but women yes. can't help it. In fact I see a woman sometimes the first thought that pops in my mind is what dose she look like nude. And one thing I have found out is there are women who some jerks make fun of but have such awsome personalities that are more fun to be around. And when they take their clothes off they are the most beautiful women on earth. do any of the you women feel this way about men?

Well, that's certainly a good point. It's such an obviously true comparison that I think my failure to see it before shows my basic discomfort with social nudity.
I read through my posts tonight. I think I am either a nudist who would rather not be, or a non-nudist who would like to be.
I enjoy being nude with other nudists. I enjoy it as if though it were not a normal thing that I'd take for granted, but something special and unusual. When I've been at a nudist resort for a few days and begin taking it for granted, I notice that I'm taking it for granted, and that becomes it's own unusual enjoyment-- though conscious unconsciousness is not something that can be maintained for more than the briefest moment. Then I spend too much time pondering why I enjoy it and what it means to enjoy it. Then I wonder if I'm doing it because I enjoy nudism or because I enjoy pondering.
I am very pro and anti nudism. It's weird and can be creepy and can be beautiful and it's completely natural and often awkward. It has a way of amplifying the experience of living.
