ok, well i was thinking about possibly going ot a nude beach, it would be my first time, is there anyway to prepare myself for it so would be too bad, or do i just just need to take the big leap?
just do it. you'll feel incredibly self-conscious at first, then you'll realise that no-one is taking much notice of you and after a while it'll just feel normal. (PS you might need to lie face-down to start with)
Roffa's right. After a twenty-minute trial run, being naked will come to seem, well, natural. Just be sure to wear sunscreen, and take note of the line that divides the clothing-optional and clothing-mandatory sections. Nothing kills the buzz of being naked like getting a sunburn or ending up in jail.
You just need to go, get naked and do it. Theres no magical way to prepare for it, just go for it and youll be fine.
Let us know what it was like for you when you do get around to it. I remember being very nervous about attending my first few nudist functions, but eventually I got used to it and now I enjoy it tremendously.
I think a good plan would be to link up with a group of people that you're comfortable with, and go together. Best of all if some of them have been there before, but maybe not best if you're the only newbie. You know, the experienced ones would be saying "You guys are going to have so much fun" and the new people would look at each other and say, uh huh, they're promising us a great time but will it really be?
Lifelong nudist here who has mentored many nudist-curious people over the years, both in my youthful years and now as an adult. My suggestion is to make it an experience you can enjoy -- and remember -- bonding with a friend. Do you have a best friend, one who would be there for you no matter what day or night rain or shine? (Most of us do). Tell him or her, and ask if they will come along for the ride (either to join you or just for moral support). Explain how important making this step is for you to make. By doing this together with a caring friend or mentor, you will be participating in an experience that you and your friend can remember fondly for a lifetime. The positive effect of shared experiences can carry over into other areas of your lives and enable you to reach for your goals and fulfill your dreams in all areas of your life. I find that people I have mentored about the nudist lifestyle will contact me even years later to say Thank You again and again for joining them on what would be a life changing experience.

i remember the first time i went to a nudist beach, and i felt quite anxious there, just simply because i didn't get used of these liberal things... now this summer, a friend of mine and me have been going to a beach which nudity is allowed, so it's been such a great experience in the sense that i don't get erected anymore. i think that being accompanied by a friend helps you a lot in controling erections and all that stuff... what i need to improve is my self-condifence... i feel a little shattered when getting nude among a mass of people. so i'll try next time
