Maybe it's difficult to get past the idea that we have to do something with our genitals, either hide them modestly or display them blatantly. There's so much emotion attached to that area, either an instinct that we've formed about what we have to do or at least what we expect other people will want us to do, that it becomes impossible to be totally casual. But I think totally casual is what we should all be. Treat the crotch with as much concern as the elbow (if you have an elbow fetish, pretend it's some other body part that's neutral for you!) Just say, yeah I've got those parts, and we almost all have one of the two major variations, so what's the big deal? Then let it show, or not show, according to how you happen to move; don't feel as if you have to move or stand or sit a certain way to make some particular view more or less possible. But we grow up in a society where what people do with their genitals (or other people's, ha ha) is a major issue for everyone. It's difficult just to turn around and say "From now on none of this matters and I won't do it any more." But it's an ideal.
It sounds as if your ex had at least one point in her favor. What begins as "good girls don't show their panties" gradually changes to dealing as an adult with the way that our society fetishizes the female body. Once we're grown up, it's become pretty much an instinct and we hardly think about why we're acting as we do. By "fetishizes" I mean regards as sexual, automatically and without leaving much room for any way for women just to be ordinary, of no particular interest, the way we think of men. What we require women to do is exactly what I've heard described as "erotic"--when a thing is revealed and concealed at the same time. So let's reveal the female body or conceal it, or both at once (think how many circumstances that happens in!) but we can never expect to take it for granted. As you say, some women can get into nudism and still be trying to stay modest, others might try to rebel against it. To be totally casual is much more difficult. What I'd have done in that incident at the hot tub would depend on how friendly I was with the woman. If we knew each other reasonably well, I might catch her eye and silently shrug. Meaning to say, "You've tried to be careful, and it hasn't worked." But also, "Let's not be embarrassed by this trivial thing. It hasn't changed your life or mine."
I sit in anyway that is comfortable and that doesn't crush my balls, like NOT crossing my legs. And who cares as long as you are comfotable ,if you want your genitals covered ....why are you nude then
I guess I would "let it all hang out" so to speak. But my cock would get hard pretty quick if there were hot well hung men around. I would have to be legs crossed after that.
Whatever is most comfortable (same as clothed?).. no preference I guess as I fidget around and move around a lot.:sunny: for example if on the beach, one min I am sitting with my legs crossed with my back straight then the next I straigten my legs due to cramp.... strange but funny topic haha
i usually am laying in the sun when im naked. so usually legs spread and bent a little so the sun covers everything for a natural full tan!
It's been my experience that most guys will make an effort to position themselves to get a better viewing angle until they see everything there is to see. I don't want them to think I'm shy in any way or just being a tease, so I usually make sure they get a good look, sooner rather than later. Then we can all move on to other things.
I sit which ever way is most comfortable the same as when clothed which isn't very often as l hate having to wear clothes
Nude in public and nude in private are very different in my mind. I don't associate sexuality with being nude in a social, public setting. I can honestly say that I have never been aroused to the point of getting an erection at a nude beach. It has never been something that I think about. I am there to enjoy the beach, and not need to wear a swimsuit. Part of that is getting a nice, even tan so I am pretty well spread out at least part of the time!
Legs together or crossed in public/company, a little bit more relaxed if I am tanning. Alone, I sit however is comfortable.
When I sit when I am naked is like K would sit should I have clothes on...one leg resting on the other knee....oor without crossing my legs....so it all basically hangs our,so it aint all that big....
Never given it much thought really, I suppose I sit the same clothed or nude. When in a social nude setting I guess everyone gets to see all I have anyway and I'm certainly not shy about anyone seeing between my legs or I wouldn't be in that location nude to start with. They can look at whatever as much as they want, who cares? Not I
