My girlfriend and I are planning to hire a villa in Menorca at the beginning of June,
it will be our first summer holiday this year and we are looking forward to sunning and
swimming nude all the time as we did last year, there is a good nudist beach just 500yards
from the Villa.
The only problem is that my girlfriend wants her mother to come away with us because
she needs a break. I get on very well with her mother and always have a good laugh
and she is very easy going but I don't know if we will be able to go nude at all.
My girlfreiend has sun bathed topless infront of her mum but I am not sure how to raise
the topic about going nude.
Should we wake up on the first morning of the holiday and just not get dressed and
see what her mum says when she sees us or should we mention the topic of nudity before
we go, it seems a strange thing to raise back home in the middle of winter???

marco,
be up front about it in a light hearted sort of way. and i think your girl friend should bring up the topic, not you. it would break the ice. and you might be surprised. all older people are not resistent to nude sunbathing. some merely have not had the opportunity.

I agree with you Calmnude, the girl friend should let her mom know they are going to be sunning in the nude. The mom is evidently not put out with nudity if the daughter suns topless in front of her. If she is not open to the guy being nude, she can go shopping.

I once heard that the essence of good manners is to see to it that your guests are comfortable. In this case, "trying" nudity in front of a guest would be poor manners. Must absolutely, positively discuss first, and even then, must be done in a way not to make guest feel put upon. Might say, "Listen, we like to sun in the nude, and we know that makes most people uncomfortable, so we'll limit that to just when you're out of the house. All that we ask is you do a lot of coughing when returning, so that you don't surprise us." That thought process will hopefully not offend her if she's not cool about nudity, and if she is, then it allows her to surprise you by saying, "what makes you think I'm uncomfortable about nudity?" But do not just spring it on her.

Thanks for your advice I think your right in saying that my girlfriend should speak to her mun about it before we go, you never know how she will react but at least she won't get any suprises.

skinnydiper, thats about the way i would do it. but i still think marco's girl friend should break the ice. and it should be done before arrival, not on the way to the beach.

Your perfectly right Calmnude, you don't want to surprize the lady, or make her holiday miserable. I agree with you that the daughter is the one that should be working the logistics out with her mother.

I think your mom will love it. I think she will be nude before you know it. Can't wait to hear the outcome. Please let us know.

I have an interesting anecdote on that topic: when my mother-in-law found out we were nudists, she said she wanted to try it out. When we went to visit her, she offered, almost as soon as we got there, that we all go nude. Go figure why, but I chickened out. I took off and went to spend the day with a friend, and when I came back that evening, I found my wife and daughter nude in the living room. My m-i-l then came out of the bathroom, just casually holding a towel in front of her, and invited me to join in. I told her I was tired and retired to the bedroom. To this day I still don't know why I chickened out, when I've never chickened out in front of anyone else. I'm still so mad about it that the next time she come, I promised myself that I will wear NO clothing the entire time she's there...unless of course I chicken out again...

NODONY, it's always tough being outnubered no matter in waht fashion. Perhaps next time the room will be more balanced and you will feel more comfortable.

"To this day I still don't know why I chickened out, when I've never chickened out in front of anyone else."
I can empathize completely. I was raised in a "modest" home with all the body-shame trappings that go with it. About ten years ago, my mother was quite upset about my wife and I bringing our children (read, "her grandchildren") to a nudist resort. She didn't care if we went, she just thought it was bad to bring the kids. Anyway, we asked her not to judge what she hadn't seen and invited her to join us on an outing. To our surprise, she accepted! I found it incredibly hard to disrobe in front of my mother.
The story has a happy ending, however. Although my mother didn't care for the nudity, she finally agreed that it was OK for us as a family. :D

There was for me an advantage in growing old, I became less interested in what others thought of me and my behavior and this ultimately led to indoor and outdoor nudism.
I sent a trip report to close friends and relatives about my first visit to a nudist resort and followed that with a second about participating in a Clothing Optional 5K Run or Walk. My daughter-in-law was very interested in the trip reports and asked some interesting questions, such as: Where you concerned about sunburn where the sun had rarely shined?
I think the daughter should inform her mother about the planned nudism before the trip.
Best Wishes, Jim

My wife brought up the fact we went to nude beaches to her parents. They were surprised, but due to the number of times they have just "mentioned" it I think they wished they had done it years ago - I know my m-i-l had done it once, and I get the feeling that she thinks she's missed something!
