Following up from my previous blog on nudity at home, let’s move forward one more step and consider being naked with other people around. Of course, a good start would be to be comfortable with your partner and yourself (and maybe even your kids) to become used to being naked, at least on occasion. You have likely seen all of your family in the nude at some time or other, so why be shy… You may ask yourself under which circumstances you would end up being in the nude with non-partners or your children around. And you are right: those situations are relatively rare, unless you make a clear choice to actively search them out. One of those situations – that I personally find a bit strange myself – are naked dinner parties. You may wonder “why?” but it is actually something that those of the nudist persuasion tend to be quite keen on. Speaking from my own experience – and yes: I hereby declare to be a nudist at home, weather and temperature permitting – whenever friends I know to be nudist are visiting, we often agree to simply be comfortable and peel off a couple of layers. That said: there is nothing intrinsically sexual or even sensual about this at this point, we simply both want to be comfortable. If our encounter leads to something more, there won’t be any clothes in the way of the proceedings. Otherwise, we’ll just be comfy and go about our cup of tea and chat. Another space where you can ease into a state of nudity in company is a classic: the sauna! It is a space that is considered as healthy and non-sexual (although the occasional glances tell a different story, of course) and the majority of users – especially in colder climate zones – are well-versed in using this space. The heat makes you sweat out a lot of stuff, cleans the pores and gets your blood pumping. It’s important to cool down properly after each round and not skimp on the cold baths or showers and the necessary rest periods. Just saying. Coming back to the naked aspect of saunas, it has to be said that in countries where saunas are regarded as part of life, they tend not to separate the genders and going to the sauna is considered to be an activity like so many others. Children are welcome to most saunas which to me indicates the ‘normality’ level of going there. This said, it may be hard to find opportunities to be naked in company, unless you create them yourself. One way to find like-minded people is to join a naturist club or organisation and participate in their activities. Many of these are open to all, but if you feel self-conscious about being in the company of the other gender, or prefer small groups, be active or rather just communicate, … whichever it is you’ll probably find a group that suits your wishes. if you feel the need, reach out to others who do the same!
