Why not Naked

Why is it, that people are afraid to let someone else see them naked?

What is it about seeing human skin that frightens people?

With the advent of Selfies, there are more nudes appearing on the net, not necessarily naturists but nude non the less. The media in their usual over sensationalist way, blow things up out of all proportion. But have you noticed there is no calamity awaiting those who do it. The papers shout about the Selfies but dont get to the point and tell us what is wrong with selfies. Admittedly, unexpected genitalia suddenly appearing on someones phone might be shocking to some people, and the papers make great play about men sending pictures to young women. They dont make such an outcry about similar numbers of women who do the same thing to men. Of course naturists would send the whole picture to people they know and not just the one area to strangers.

Of course this being said, naked genitalia should not be sent unsolicited to some one who might not want to see such things, that is rather like aggressive flashing and could cause trauma among the more sensitive. Mind you if we were all naturists all the time it would kill such approaches outright - what is the point of a flasher when everyone is already naked.

In the recent heatwave the papers reported a woman walking through parts of London completely naked. There were no complaints and the media had a job making a story about it.

No one could be surprised at what is on this blog, I think the title gives it away. People who only know us casually and dont know we are naturist, might stumble across the blog accidentally and might even be startled by it, but again there is sufficient warning in the title so they dont have to open it if they are sensitive about such things.

I know with the spiders-web of links on the internet, it is possible for someone to find one or more of the photos accidentally, but I dont see that as a problem.

I knew a girl once, who was a GO-GO dancer at strip night at a local dance hall. She was a lovely girl, very popular and we became friends (just friends, nothing else) for a while, if she hadn't been married already .......

We lost touch for sometime then I found she was topless GO-GO dancing. Later she became a stripper and in much demand. During this time (before Calendar Girls) she was a member of the W.I. They knew about her work and even featured it in their magazine. I think I remember right it got into the local paper as well. So the Jam and Jerusalem fraternity didn't object to her nudity. So who does object to nudity??


If anyone knows the stripper and/or her husband, ask them to get in touch through this site. It'd be nice to catch up again. Her husband was a keen cyclist and ran a cycle shop in Leicestershire for a while.
