My(33m) mom(51) is moving back to my home state. Without getting into to much irrelevant context she is moving in with me. I’ve mostly been a home nudist but do make trips to resorts or beaches if I can and have been with friends as well as without. She is not aware of any of it, and It isn’t something I guess I’ve thought of in conversation with her. Growing up our family never was nude or would it have probably have been accepted. My question is does anyone have any advice on how best to bring it up? Or were you ever in a similar situation with a family member ? I honestly just dont want to go back to having to wear clothes in my own home but also don’t want to damage my relationship with her since it will only be 1 or 2 years max. She is a bit more open minded now that she isn’t with my dad anymore but I’m still unsure how she would react.

I think it might be nice to be naked in nature but how do I know where to go and should I go with someone else (I'm 22F if that maters)? I like to be naked at home but that's all I've done

I want somewhere in the Americas.

The human body is all natural, is art and is beautiful.

Just found out about this graphic novel called Nudism in Connecticut. It's supposed to be based on a true story. The authors are

Jon Buller and Susan Schade 

A description from the internet: "Frank Mallett, inspired by cooperative colonies he had visited in Europe, returned home envisioning utopian communities of bohemian emigrés and artistic intellectuals proliferating in sylvan harmony. With the crash of 1929 his already floundering enterprises seemed doomed — until he discovered a growing interest in healthy, wholesome nudism.Closely based on actual people and events, Nudism Comes to Connecticut exposes the conflict between the ecstasy of the “exquisite naked plunge” and voyeurism, competitiveness, and greed by way of many period writings and letters. Although Frank’s love of nature never falters, he learns that there is more to nudism than meets the eye.Nudism is veteran children’s book authors Jon Buller and Susan Schade’s first published graphic novel, lovingly rendered in delicate, indeed, enticing, pen lines."

This thought struck me today and I wanted to share. Most of the time I'm wearing clothes I'm not satisfied with what I'm wearing. It is either too loose, too tight, old and shabby or too new and neat (as if I'm trying too hard). It makes me look shorter or fatter or too juvenile or too old, ...

But when I'm naked, I look exactly how I'm supposed to look. Even my man-boobs and beer-belly look fine and natural. I do enjoy to look at the mirror while I'm nude, not because I'm vain but because what I see is who I am.

Note: Not my blog.

I know that we discuss so many positives with nudism but what, if any, is your worst moment in your nudist practice or experience? Was it something someone said, acted, etc?

I know its 70's and australian PLOT

Two school boys peek over their new female teachers fence, seeing her sunbathing nude. The matter eventually ends up before the. school board etc etc...

I'm looking for the TITLE or BETTER a link to the vid?

She keeps telling me about how hot it is over there. Meanwhile in Canada, freezing my buns off wishing I was there instead of here. I miss summer so much, it went by too fast. Now, I'm always wearing socks

Hey all, I signed up for an AANR account and was going to buy a membership, but given my experience with these outdated websites I decided to test if I could log in after I closed the page (lots of these old websites have super complex data layers that are super fragile). I was not surprised but I was so so sad to see the login absolutely did not work, I keep getting a “wrong login email” (which in itself is a security vulnerability if it tells me which field I need to focus on guessing if I was a potential bad actor).

I can confirm the email is correct because after this happened I recovered a previous web session and made sure the email in my account matched. But now, hours later that session is no longer active and now I really have no way of signing in. If anyone else has encountered this how have you fixed it?

Sidenote: If you happen to be associated with the websites creation, please I would love to volunteer my help to fix this website. At this point from what I have seen its not just visually outdated it has some big accessibility and security problems which

Edit: thanks to those who suggested I should call, thanks that is a good idea and I will call tomorrow to get that settled.

Hey everyone, 30m and 27f couples here. Somewhat new to nudism and trying to find more places and activities to do together with nude.

Outside of family dont have any other nudist friends IRL, especially ones around our age. or please post any ideas or suggestions for couples (private or in nude appropriate public areas both fine!)

Had a surprise day off today, temporarily ran out of parts. I had a little trouble deciding on rollerblading, being naked, and cleaning house. I decided to do all of them at the same time, yay. I started out by getting naked and putting my skates on, play the little bit of super Mario Bros. Did a little work on the house get it ready for Christmas. I think I got used to the skates finally ,got them broken in. Reorganized the kitchen, gathering stuff up to take to storage. Took the skates off got dressed went to the park and put the skates back on for another hour of workout. It's amazing how warm I stayed all day. Not sure skating inside is a great idea because of wear and tear, but I might go ahead and put the skates on in the future just a lounge around and be used to them being on. Maybe put something on and go around the block. What kind of fun filled activities of you tried this winter so far

Wasn’t sure how many families celebrated the holidays in the nude!

Were you lucky to enjoy a majority of the time clothes free? If so, I envy you! Hope you're well and happy holidays!

Skinnydipped and streaked in college! Went to Jamaica on our honeymoon and did not realize we were on a clothing optional beach. When I turned around my wife was topless and then naked and when I asked her what was up with that she said, "When in Rome!" Since then we have traveled the world finding clothing, optional beaches, and staying at resorts and places where clothes are optional! We even flew to London last year and did the world, naked bike ride! It's just natural! From our honeymoon as I had to capture the moment!

I’m hoping to travel solo in the Christmas holidays. I was just wondering where do nudist go…. I was thinking gran canaria but that’s looking quite expensive. Is there any cheaper alternatives ? Thanks in advance

I’m curious how y’all handle nudism/naturism in y’all’s area with your local flora and fauna. For example, I live in Texas with a whole menagerie environmental hazards we have to be mindful of, both on land and especially in the water.

There are some standard nudist activities we all do, swimming, nude spas or relaxing on a nude beach. What are some acitivities that are surprisingly fun to do when youre in the buff that nudists generally do not do or know about?

Tell your stories, I'm reading them, fellow nudists.
