I am embaressed to be nude any more...I had a baby and my body is not what it used to be...I used be nude all the time when I could.My husband lovesmy body and he loves going nude. :&
I understand how you feel. But remember too that nudism is about body acceptance. Nudists don't care what you look like. We're all alike. Nudism is the great equalizer. You lose your clothes and you lose the trappings of society. Your body is a miracle, just like having a baby. Enjoy it.
Hey if your husband likes you nude then just go nude for him to make him happy and dont worry what anyone else thinks about how you look. If you and your husband think you look good then thats all that really matters.
Don't ever be embarrassed to be seen in the nude. The different body types and all that are expected, and it should mean nothing to anyone but yourself.
indeed. you don't have to be scared of people accepting you. we all have our flaws but thats what makes us unique. that is what makes me love people.
Since we've got a new thread that duplicates an existing topic, I'll say here what I said there: I recommend looking up information about naturism, as opposed to just being naked. The basic idea is that every body is good, your body, my body, and everybody's body. In the naturist universe, the idea of some bodies as "better" than others is rejected, and that also includes the results of the various misadventures that a lot of us encounter during our lives. Our society puts so much emphasis on being "attractive", especially for women, that it can be difficult to get into a state of mind where it's not important, but we can do it if we want to. Obviously, if a person were to go naked with an "imperfect" body among people who were only looking for the gorgeous ones (by their own set of criteria, of course) then it wouldn't be a happy experience, but if you know who you'll be with it can be a really positive experience, and as good as a whole string of apointments with a therapist! Accepting ourselves and each other is such a fine thing to do--our bodies ought to be what reminds us of our shared humanity.
Then go nude for your husband at home or somewhere where no one else can see you. He may enjoy seeing you but other may not....
In what way has your body changed so drastically that you can't go nude? So you've had a baby. What are you so insecure about? Tell us, maybe it will help.
Hey is'nt what your saying going totally against the spirit of naturism? We belong to a Club and have visited other resorts & people are all accepted no matter what there shape or size & im sure you will be too.
A funny thing happens to you as you age... You get comfortable in your own skin - stretch marks, belly, saggy breasts and all. They are what they are - and your hubby see you for who you are, not what you are. You'll never B the same after kids - and that's GREAT! Consider it a badge of honor. you'd give up feeling sun all over just 'cuz you don't look like you're a teenager anymore? C'mon!
I know how you feel. My body was also different after being pregnant. But the purpose of being nude is being comfortable with yourself and understanding that other people will accept you no matter what.
Don't listen to the defeatists, Irie. There's nothing wrong with taking pride in your appearance. Fitness isn't just for teenagers, either. At thirty-six, I'm in the best shape of my life. If you really can't stand the baby weight, you'll find a way to get rid of it. In the meantime, be patient with yourself. It's doubtful that anyone else will judge your body as sternly as you're judging it yourself.
