Interesting article in the Times travel section about the popularity of nude beach resort vacations and how they're drawing a different type of customer. Mostly Couples, no single men are allowed, says nothing about single women.
I've enjoyed being nude on a beach and swimming nude, but the whole concept of a resort does not appeal to me to go eat dinner with a bunch of naked people. All those bits and pieces flapping around as we play ball!

It would take me too long to get over gawking at everyone to even bother. Perhaps after a couple of months of checking everyone out I would be ok but by then.....
Posted: Apr 26, 08 3:31pm
i would be very self- conscious having my bits and pieces out there for all to see
could I keep my undies on??
Posted: Apr 26, 08 7:11pm
I like that..."bits and pieces out there for all to see"...what a creative way of saying it!
Posted: Apr 27, 08 7:33am
IDN if i coud do that one. Letting everyone looking and gaulking at my goods
Posted: Apr 26, 08 2:23pm
No. I wouldn't go to a nude resort. A nude beach...yes....probably. The resort thing is too much.
Posted: Apr 26, 08 2:35pm
I am wondering if they grill in the nude--that could be painful if something spatters!!
Posted: Apr 26, 08 2:38pm
I am sure after I got there I would have the place to myself
Posted: Apr 26, 08 2:30pm
only if I were 20 years younger, 4 inches taller and 20 pounds lighter!
plus where would I put my astronaut suit????
Posted: Apr 26, 08 2:32pm
Funny! Your suit could still be used for your space travel!
Posted: Apr 26, 08 2:36pm
I am nude under my clothes!
Posted: Apr 26, 08 2:47pm
I remember Hippie Hollow in Austin. It was so lovely laying out on the warm rocks by the lake...feeling the breeze...delicious.
At least, that's what I'm told.
Posted: Apr 26, 08 2:55pm
I'm tempted to join this discussion, but modesty forbids.
Posted: Apr 26, 08 3:03pm
Sure Pru. I heard about you,
Posted: Apr 26, 08 3:26pm
would you be allowed to wear your horns at a nude resort, brit?
Posted: Apr 26, 08 3:29pm
hi pru--how are you doing today??
i think that my left pinky is very sexy when it is nude and my right foot isn't too bad, either
Posted: Apr 26, 08 9:11pm
AH, One of the "Hippie Hollow" girls. I thought I married one. after 36 years we figured out it wasn't true.
Posted: Apr 26, 08 9:14pm
How did you find out it wasn't true?
Posted: Apr 26, 08 2:54pm
I live with a teenage son and his 1000 buddies. I barely take nude showers. So no, thank you.
Besides, as Bull says...I would shortly have the place to myself...;-D
Posted: Apr 26, 08 3:10pm
I have been to nude beaches all over the world. I would not be as ready to do so in my present age and condition, but I so admire those who do with little concern for a missing part or limb or an extra roll of...their person. Very inspiring.
At nude resorts, by the way, the indoor public places are usually air conditioned so people wear something and usually there are rules to cover up in eating areas.
Years ago I was invited to lecture at a nudists' convention. I pictured myself staring at a naked audience, the only one clothed, like the reverse of a bad dream, but people did cover up indoors. Whew.

Like the old axiom picture everyone nude, just picture everyone clothed.
Posted: Apr 26, 08 2:57pm
not to sound like an old hairy bear, but, after some of the things i read on the 'genital shaving timeline' thread, i would have to say, um, no thank you.
Posted: Apr 26, 08 8:23pm
I missed that one...Genital Shaving Timeline? Good Lord.
Posted: Apr 26, 08 2:57pm
I think the nude resort would be a bit much for me, but the idea of a nude beach for a afternoon sounds fun; especially being one of those guys with those bits and pieces flapping around as we play ball!
Posted: Apr 26, 08 3:05pm
I do have nice looking feet.
Posted: Apr 26, 08 3:07pm
I'm told I have some nice features too.
Posted: Apr 26, 08 3:06pm
Resort? No. Beach? Well, then you're asking the wrong question. It's not "Would I go to a nude beach" but rather, "Would they let me in?"
Few people are psychologically prepared for the shock, the stunning impact, the stellar radiance that is me in all my natural glory.
Posted: Apr 26, 08 3:32pm
you are way too humble, Ken w!
Posted: Apr 26, 08 5:14pm
I'm braced, Ken. Let's see watcha got?
Posted: Apr 26, 08 5:17pm
I'm covering my eyes and will only peek a little through my fingers!
Posted: Apr 26, 08 7:24pm
This could be a whole new TBD group. What do you say Ken?

Ken
The nude beach near me is mostly occupied by gay men.
Before you go charging all of that out there for the amazement of others.....you may want to reconsider.
Use Gaydar
Posted: Apr 27, 08 8:27pm
Who cares if they are gay--if they look like the two in the picture Anita posted, they'd be great to just look at! My, oh, my..........
Posted: May 8, 08 11:02pm
Well,
If you are Chef Ramsey as your photo displays, TELL me when and where you go. I would go to THAT nude beach any day.
I am not perfect yet not hard on the eyes either. I can carry a conversation well.
HOWEVER if Ramsey was there, there would be no telling what I might do. I would be all Tang -Tungled! He is a hottie.
At any rate, No, a resort isn't my cuppa tea. But I do think Naked is a good way to be!
Posted: Apr 26, 08 3:09pm
Why a beach? Why a resort?
What's wrong with starkers on the prairie?
Or on the hills and glens?

Don't worry the Bay to Breakers is nearing and even in foggy SF they run almost nude...have to wear sneakers and backpacks.
Posted: Apr 26, 08 3:18pm
I love to perv at lovely women around a pool or in a restaurant. Exciting fantasies!
In a nude resort, what do I do when a nude woman's naughty bits cause mine to cease "flapping" and to stand at attention? Especially when the women then burst into laughter.

I have wondered about that too. Wouldn't that be embarassing, Or uncomfortable for a man?
Posted: Apr 26, 08 3:56pm
This rarely happens, oddly enough. When it does you simply wrap a towel around it (or hang one from it).
Posted: Apr 26, 08 4:05pm
Tony,
Carry around one of those party hats to place on your member. Wrap the band around your nut sack.
That should get you some dates.

Lay down and let us play ring toss.
TBD knew where to circumsized..I meant make the final CUT.
Posted: Apr 26, 08 3:18pm
I get self–conscious wearing shorts in public, so I'd have to say no to this idea.
Posted: Apr 26, 08 3:21pm
What's the big deal? I got nothing to hide and most people are too polite to kaugh :-<
BTW, Prunella, Hippie Holler has pretty much gone gay from what I hear.
Posted: Apr 26, 08 5:16pm
Well there was a place down the road, Hughes Park. Is it still there?
Some friends told me about it.
Posted: Apr 26, 08 6:52pm
sure Pru I heard about you.
Posted: Apr 26, 08 6:58pm
I beg your pardon. I enjoy being frocked at the lake.
Posted: Apr 26, 08 7:14pm
Never heard of it.
But if you want to be defrocked at the lake or sea, I'll be glad to assist *drool*
Posted: Apr 26, 08 3:49pm
Is there such a thing as a nude thread or should I flag myself inappropriate?? p.s. from what I understand gawking is a nude scene taboo right?
Posted: Apr 26, 08 3:54pm
Is this a nude thread? Only if you are nude?
Posted: Apr 26, 08 3:53pm
I've got it! Let's all sit here on the computer reading and writing nude! LOL! Just my silly sense of humor....
