    I am sure that many naturists who isn't born into a open minded and free spirited family have once in their lifetime felt the doubt when they started to live like this. And that is kind of where I am now. I have been very interested of this lifestyle for a long time and since I don't live alone it is very hard for me to actually try this for real.

    I have planned to go to a naturist beach this week to actually try it and see if it is something to me. The thought really interests me and I have talked to some family members about this who think I will get raped and so on (even tho most rapes occur in a situation when the victim is wearing clothes as far as I know)...

    The fact is that I am more afraid to get sexually objectified when I am wearing clothes, I know naturists are sexual too but I feel like in a community and event together with people like this it is not a big deal at all it is just natural (i know this sounds cliche but still). I am feeling more safe and down-to-earth with naturists.

    I have decided that I will go to this beach, but if I may like this lifestyle so much that I would like to do it at home, I mean, the summer is not lasting forever. I want to respect my family but since I was often nude as a small kid and even when I was older, such as 12 I could walk around nude but ever since I talked about naturism they have been very negative.
    I want to discuss this and I really respect their feelings. But still... discuss it with them wouldn't hurt. But how can I do it? I need some good arguments too if the only reason behind the no is that "it is pervy and creepy"?

    What would you do, and what did you do my dear fellas when you started this lifestyle?

    Thank you for taking time to read and maybe answer my probably really stupid questions. :Angel_anim:

    Perhaps you would be more comfortable first spending a day or weekend at a nude resort?

    If the resort is an AANR member then you can be assured that the management takes some effort to ensure that women and children are safe and cared for.
    Not that AANR member resorts are the only choice but there at least you know they have a commitment to keeping visitors safe and making comfortable.
    Most are enclosed by security fences also.

    At a nudist resort you may meet members who have experience with the nude beach in your area and can tell you what to expect there.

    Yes, that is really a best case scenario and a very fun story to hear. I actually enjoyed the nude beach a lot, I have been trying to talk with my mother but she don't want to discuss it and change the topic very fast.

    But I could do as your friend did, first be naked in my room and start to wear less clothes for everyday. I will try this! Thank you for the tip!

    Thank you for your tip too, but even tho I am a young woman I am not afraid of predators. Why would I when male nudists don't have to be? But still thank you for your good meaning :)

    I am also from Europe too and we have many nudist organizations here, I am planning first to go this beach more now and then maybe even join an organization!

    I have to say that the beach I went was very clean, silent and calm. No kids running around and scream was there (which I have been experiencing). I wonder what made the kids so silent and calm, haha. Also it was a very clean beach and it felt really free to swim around naked, sunbathe and just read my book. I want to try this lifestyle more!

    My mistake, I did not notice your location.
    I'm not really one of "those" Americans who assume everyone on the planet shares the social realities here in the US, I just wasn't paying attention.

    I'm happy to hear that you found some enjoyment at the beach.
    I hope you will have a lifetime of such enjoyment.

    Be well!

    I happen to be happiest when I am wearing the least amount of clothing possible. It feels natural and right to me. Right now I am only naked behind closed doors and half naked around some people who I trust to understand it. But I still haven't been able to discuss it with my family besides my brother
