A Much Needed Rest...

After all the seasonal festivities, shopping, cooking and parties, it is clearly time for a much needed and well-deserved rest and recuperation. Many with lesser stamina would not have made it this far!

Time to take a break from all the bustle and hustle and take it easy for one day. After all, tomorrow is New Year's Eve and time to start the parties all over again! So rest your weary head on my buttocks my man and pleasant dreams!

And if by chance you happen to be on a nakation (naked + vacation = nakation), good for you. Go ahead and sleep, anyway. 

Have a safe and happy New Year's Eve!

Peace! Get naked. Enjoy!

Happy Kwanzaa!

The Festival of Kwanzaa originated as an African-American celebration in honor of the traditions of sub-Sahara Africa. It lasts for a total of seven days (one week) and focuses on commemorating both family and community virtues in an effort to strengthen the ties that bind the generations of Black Americans to their cultural heritage.  

Although I am not of African descent, my husband, Aaron is. We keep Kwanzaa as a means of continuing our family's honoring of our biracial and multicultural identities. 

Happy Kwanzaa!

Have yourselves (and your elves) a safe and happy holiday!

Holiday Memories

I wasn't fortunate enough to grow up in a clothes-free household, but I am thankful for the family that I have. I have an identical twin brother, Alex, who is also same gender loving, a nudist and Deaf, as am I. We have three older brothers, three younger brothers and no sisters. Mom was the only female in our household when all of our siblings were growing up. 

Twin (that's how I refer to Alex) and I shared a room and after a protracted struggle with our parents, it was mutually agreed that we could be bare, nude, naked as long as we were in our room. Needless to add, it wasn't too long before we were sneaking around the house, without any clothes, just to see how long we could assert our bare self-determination. 

Of course, we were discovered in our blatant nudity many times. Our punishment would usually be a week without nude privileges. I do distinctly remember the winter holidays when we would steal out of our bedroom after everyone else was asleep and going downstairs to sit, bare, around and stare at our holiday tree. Both of us are fluent in American Sign Language (ASL) so we could converse between ourselves without disturbing our parents and brothers. 

Somehow, whether it was with benign parental benevolence and the holiday spirit, we were never caught clothes-free outside of our room during the holidays. Maybe it was the grace of Rudolph and all the other reindeer. Who knows? In hindsight, for Twin and myself, the important aspect of this holiday was always the fact that we were able to have this time being as naked as the moment we were born!

Peace! Get naked. Enjoy!

Winter Begins

Winter Begins Today in the Northern Hemisphere!

There's a definite chill in the air and if you're outside and bare, the chill is all over your body! Don't fret too much, the chill can be very invigorating! It awakens the senses and for some, it can make them quite frisky! 

Be strong! Spring begins on March 20, 2016!

Peace! Get naked. Enjoy!

Holiday Shopping!

Tired of the long lines when you're having to pay for your holiday gifts? Try something new for this season: painting your face with body paint before you go to your shopping mall! When you're bare and with a painted face, the crowds will part and allow you to pass! No problem and no wait in the long lines for service!

If you're wondering where our face-painted bare buddy keeps his wallet, check out the rings on his left hand (to your right if viewing the image). A chain extends from the rings to his wallet. Very nudecentric and a cause of frustration for pick-pocket thieves! 

Peace! Get naked. Enjoy!

Photo-Blog: Nude Dudes: We Need More Like Him!

The last nude dudes post for 2015 salutes all our bare and hirsute advocates!

In many ways, all of us, whether we intend to or not, are advocates for nudity. Simply by choosing to be clothes-free publicly, we are a testament to our support of social nudity and naked living. Our nakedness identifies us as such regardless of whether we like it or not. We may not consider ourselves as policy proponents, but whenever we participate in any type of nude activity, be it social, athletic or just "hanging out" bare with friends, we are sending a message to others that it is okay to be clothes-free. If we truly enjoy being bare with our friends, then that's not a bad statement to give. 

December's nude dude pictured above is delivering a political statement by both his public nudity and by his sign that he's standing beside: Real men say NO to clothes. The sign itself implies that if you're wearing clothing, then your masculinity is compromised if not completely nullified. In light of today's hyped-version of total manhood, the signage alone will cause a reaction among many men. The wording alone questions the manhood of anyone who is dressed.  

In other words, if you really want to be considered a true man, then you'll stop wearing clothes and go about your business bare, nude, naked, clothes-free. Given my preference for natural (no clothing whatsoever) men, that's not such a bad idea. However, given the hypocritical modesty of most of our gender, too many will probably take offense.

Real men say NO to clothes! You can safely bet your last pair of boxers that they do! And often, they are doing so stripping out of their garments and strutting around bare in their birthday suits as fast as they are able!   

Another and personally equal reason for honoring the nude dude in this photograph is based on my preference of naturally hirsute men. I don't shave any of my body hair (below the neck) and I both appreciate and admire the same in the other members of my gender. 

We aren't born wearing clothes, so why bother? Our body hair grows naturally in men past adolescence, so why shave it? In my humble opinion, a man with shaved armpits, chest and pubes looks too sanitized and artificial. I want a man who looks like a man, not a prepubescent boy. A shaved face and head is fine, but when it comes to naturally occurring body hair, keep the fur. 

Please don't misunderstand me. I realize that all men are different. Some have hairy chests and others do not. Others have hairy asses (butts) and then there are those who are naturally smooth. Some have profuse armpit and pubic hairs and others have only a sparse amount. The point here is that I prefer us all to let our body hair be where it grows and not try to appear as something we are not. A smooth, hairless body on a man is not what nature intended. 

The above comments are my own opinion and not that of any official governing naturist/nudist body (if such even exists). I know there are many of my bare brethren around who shave (or otherwise remove) their body hair. Whatever works best for each individual is fine. I am merely sharing my own truth about what is pleasing to me. It is not my intention to offend anyone.

For those of you, like myself, who indeed appreciate a naturally hairy man, enjoy the "eye-candy." 

Peace! Get naked. Enjoy!
