In nudist culture among the parks, beaches, and clubs, it's understood that you check your sexual existence at the gate. I understand and agree with the practice as a way to bar people with less than honest intentions. It is no easy task to filter out those types for the overall good of the visitors. I realize that many cultures automatically associate nudity with sexuality, and that fact is not the focus here. My question to you as a practicing nudist has to do with how you are away from these formal parks and such. Are you more accepting of your own and other's sexuality? An example might be a setting such as your own home or that of another nudist. Perhaps, everyone is swimming and sunning and having an enjoyable afternoon. Maybe someone has an erection or some other physical sign, without any change in behavior. Perhaps it's even you. Is it accepted in this setting, or is the person run out of town for it? My biggest point, assuming there is no underlying bad intentions or conduct, shouldn't we accept others and their sexual human nature as much as any other part of them? We as humans are sexual creatures, like it or not, otherwise we would not exist. I just think we can push some things too far to try to prove we as nudist are genuinely good people and act like no one should have a sexual bone in their body. Nudist are human too. Shouldn't we acknowledge our sexuality as being part of who we are? If I were lying on my back by the pool half asleep with an erection, should I be thrown off a building for it? What if in the same situation it was a woman with hard nipples? Are we ban from any public display of affection? Kissing, hugging, or any thing that would be appropriate with children present. Is common sense and morality a thing of the past? Is this the "politically correct" issue of the nudist culture? I'm interested to hear your thoughts on this subject, again as it pertains in a more private surrounding, someone's backyard or other private property. I'm not interested in suggesting some of your comments to be "right" or "wrong". I value your viewpoint and perspective. Include your age, gender, or background if you feel it's pertinent to your point. Best wishes to you all and thank you for participating.
What? Are you asking permission to walk around showing off your boner and you want to caress other bodies. Its pretty much sounds like it and thats exactly why people find this type of things offensive. Ive been a nudist for years. Been to nude beaches and resorts. Ive talked to others about things you brought up. Its not the erection, the hug thats offensive. Its the fact it doesn't happen on the norm. Its the persons mentality of showiing it off. The hello hug becomes a long term squeeze. Sure things happen, but really... No one cares to see you brag. Rather see you more discreet
This a topic that comes up often in the nudist community, and frankly you have a good point. An erection is a natural thing, and can happen at any time. But, its how you handle the situation that is the point. At some time or another as a nudist you will probably have, or feel you are getting, and erection. When that happens most men throw a towel on it, go in the pool (or do not get out), etc. till it dies down (as it were). In a perfect world, no one would care. But that is not the case normally. In my humble opinion, I think for most nudists suppressing sexuality is a learned thing, and it always hovers just below the surface. To be otherwise is against how we are all wired. But to do or be otherwise would produce anarchy on the beaches and at the clubs. That is not to say that there is no place were erections are not accepted. To be sure, I was a member of a group of about a dozen nudist families that got together privately and were it was accepted that an erection was not a "taboo" thing, and far from a reason to be rode out on a rail. That being said whoever, they were very rare. My two cents worth....
To me, all this talk of erections and guys wanting to discuss and flaunt it stems from our society installing this stigma of only large penis count. It counts in the male locker room as if the guy with the largest member becomes the pack leader. The idea that women are more intrigued with a partner who is well endowed. Why? She isnt going to demonstrate him to her friends and they also know its quality over quanity. Its a visual thing brought on my porn movies. Theyre truely not a reality. I laugh at the resorts and beaches when I see see a man trying to uncomfortably find a way to make himself seem bigger when he sees people walk toward him or before he gets out of a chair. The ones that drive me crazy is the guy with a penis pump to helphim with erections. They pump it up and lay there with their flagpole sticking up for hours. Usually sticking up part way then when they dont get enough attention they pump up some more. At that point at a resort he will get caught and be removed from the premises with the look of shock on their face and a boner out front. Come on guys.... Nobody really cares if you are truely a nudist.
I've seen people at nude beaches with erections. If somebody's wishing it would go away, they don't look like they're parading around. I treat it like any sort of involuntary embarrassing thing your body can do: act like an adult and don't make a big thing of it. You're discounting the role that body language plays with communicating intentions. If somebody's body language is overtly sexual, erection or no, most people in a nudist setting will be uncomfortable. But things happen and adults have learned that they can be embarrassed, too and they don't make a big deal of it.
My lady and I have gone to a few nudist things and Ive always been able to curb it but if I see someone erect it doesnt bother me or her at all because it is natural, it happens. It takes time for soem making nudity a general social thing is all I feel.
Nudists of the devotional sex genre — that is to say, they associate, strongly, nudism and sexual function and arousal, are the prime culprits for this style of very adverse behaviour. This is mentioned in the context of resorts and clubs where these people attend looking for "action". But what goes on in people's private backyards is their business entirely. It's when it carries over into the broader public and free beaches that it causes very negative perceptions of nudists as "wankers" and "freeliv exhibitionists".
