Growing Up Confused
« on: March 03, 2025, 07:17:44 AM »
Got to thinking about growing up, the confusion, the stress, and the effects on life. This is about the social shaping of nude attitude and my personal journey.

Thank you DF for this feminine vision of our nudity
I like hiking, running, kayaking, biking, sailing, geocaching...naked of course!

Gosh, DF,  a fascinating read.  I can't directly relate your experiences and growth of naked emancipation to my own but it did ring bells from "back when" - when I can recall my body's desire to shed clothes and yet it being polluted with guilt and sensual/sexual feelings which confused my motivations.  It wasn't until decades later that I realised how to detach nudity from sex and both from guilt and shame feelings.  A lot of that was thanks to being in a group of unembarrassed naturists on TSNS.  It gave me the strength and the thought processes to shed the restricting garments of convention and accept that I liked (loved) being naked for its own sake.

How did you get the idea that the article was written about me? Sorry to disappoint all of you but I did not write the article, Jbee did. It was about his experience.
