Sunday Sleep In

Perhaps "sleep-in" is the wrong term, but I think you all catch my meaning. Just lay in bed and enjoy the closeness of one another is probably best. Time together, bare, with the man that you love.

Peace! Get naked. Enjoy!

Our Love

The reason that we have the reality of love and romance is that we, as humans, are all members of a very social species. Our social interactions help to define who we are and to give us a perspective of our place in the universe. 

Unlike some other species of life, humans tend to prefer emotional attachments to those with whom we share a physical attachment. In the past, these attachments were considered to be life-long. Recent developments have removed some of the permanency expectations of these relationships and instead it is now understood that these attachments can last over a period of time not necessarily ending with the death of one partner.  

These relationships often reflect an emotional bond between two, and sometimes more, individuals based on how internalize our feelings (emotions) that the individuals generate within us. This response is what we generally refer to as love, which is mostly understood to be one of the strongest emotions that many ever experience.   

When we are attracted to another person, one of our initial desires is to manifest our attraction through a kiss. Depending on how our body reacts to this kiss guides us to our next step.

This next step is usually more physical than just a kiss and involves the sense of touch. We hold, hug, cuddle and explore our bodies to determine if we need to progress further in our relationship

This next step culminates in our physical intimacy, whether within or outside a wedding or marriage. This step, like those above, generates responses both mentally and internally that guide us through all the intricacies of our relationship.

Friday Footnotes: Random Thoughts

I've been thinking lately...

Why is it that when heterosexual couples engage in public displays of affection (PDA), it's always considered romantic, cute, adorable and appropriate? No one seems to have any problem regardless of how much they paw, pet and caress each other and where they do it. I've observed countless couples while shopping, commuting to and from work or dining out.  Some couples look and act as though they have nothing left to do but to have intercourse in full view of everyone.  

Yet let a same gender loving couple simply holding hands enter into the picture and automatically those same, identical behaviors become obscene, despicable and shameless. 

I understand that PDA among same gender loving couples is a recent phenomenon. Not all people are in favor of marriage equality. Some folks view same gender love as sinful and the devil's work. I know all this and wonder where do these folks get off?

Regardless of their personal beliefs, marriage equality is the law of the land. You may not support or approve of gay/lesbian marriage or even of their love, but that is your personal belief. Not everyone feels or thinks the same as you. And it is not up to you to comment on the beliefs of others.

So kindly keep your judgments and remarks on others to yourself. Thank you!

NABWMT

My husband, Aaron, and I are a biracial couple. I don't think that it was pre-planned, it simply happened. We saw each other for the first time, accidentally, at a social nudist function. The next day we had our first date. Within a year we were living together as a couple. In August, 2015, we married. Each of our families not only supported us emotionally but also strongly encouraged us to legally wed. We both acknowledge that this is not the case for everyone. 

We're members of a national organization that is supportive of biracial gay couples and is committed to fighting both homophobia and racism. We're not as active in our local chapter as we would like and that is due to our varying work schedules, more so Aaron's than mine. The name of this organization is the National Association of Black and White Men Together (NABWMT). 

The mission of NABWMT:

"The National Association of Black and White Men Together is a gay, multiracial, multicultural organization committed to fostering supportive environments wherein racial and cultural barriers can be overcome and the goal of human equality realized. To these ends we engage in educational, political, cultural and social activities as a means of dealing with the racism, sexism, homophobia, HIV/AIDS discrimination and other inequalities in our communities and in our lives."  

We both hope to become more involved in our local affiliate this year. Hopefully, next year we would like to attend the national convention. Although it isn't a nudecentric group, we would like to expand our circle of friendship with other biracial couples throughout the USA.

Hot Kiss On A Cold Day!

On a cold winter's morning, there's nothing better than a hot, sloppy kiss to wake up and get the blood pumping! It's recommended that you have an excuse for not going into work as you'll probably be late, if you even make it into the office!

Visit My Adult Blog (NSFW)

This year (2016), I began publishing an adult (NSFW) blog dealing almost exclusively with posts regarding same gender loving (gay) sex and sexuality. The name of this site is ReNude Pride. To visit the blog, click on the title and you will be linked to it. 

I generally post on ReNude Pride every Sunday. I'm experimenting with some different formats but the weekly post schedule seems to work best for me. It doesn't conflict with my plans for  Guys Without Boxers: Bare With Pride. Please feel free to comment on any of the posts there by accessing the "comment" icon below each individual post entry. To contact me on any issues about ReNude Pride, please email me at: renudepride@gmail.com.

The content of ReNude Pride is sexually explicit and the majority of the featured images are of a sexually graphic. The focus and targeted population is completely of interest to the same gender loving male community. 

Guys Without Boxers: Bare With Pride continues to promote and provide resources and information for the same gender loving male naturist/nudist community.

First Wedding Anniversary!

One year ago today, on Saturday, August 15, 2015, Aaron and I were legally married in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Our wedding had been planned almost six months in advance and once we made the decision, it seemed to be both the longest and the shortest six months in our lives. 

We'd lived together for almost five years. Aaron had met all of my family and I, his. This all had taken place long before we decided to "jump the broom," "tie the knot" and become husband and husband. We met for the first time in June, 2010, at a same gender loving nudist social (no surprise there). It wasn't "love at first sight" but it was a close second. Our first date was the day after we met. The morning after our first date we were both aware that we were indeed "smitten."  

Virginia had passed a constitutional amendment to restrict marriage to one man and one woman in 2006. Since then, legal challenges filed by state equality advocates and organizations wound through the court systems. Finally, on October 6, 2014, the U.S. Supreme Court declared the amendment unconstitutional thus allowing same gender marriages to take place. Once that verdict was announced, Aaron's parents and mine began a campaign to encourage us to legalize our relationship. 

Unknown to both sets of our parents was that Aaron and I had already discussed the issue of marriage even before the U. S. Supreme Court had rendered their decision and we had agreed to get married in 2015. We had shared this secret with only my brother, Twin, and with Aaron's oldest brother. They both had promised to keep our confidence.  

To this day, we've not told our parents that we planning our wedding even before they began their aggressive nuptial campaign. We both feel that there's nothing wrong with letting them think that they brought us together. We're not lying to them and really, there's no harm in allowing them to believe that they've done a good thing. Plus, they're the only parents we'll ever have so as long as they're happy, we're happy. 

Aaron and I were married in a civil ceremony conducted by a court official and held our wedding reception in the community center facility in our condominium complex. We left on our honeymoon several weeks later. Amazingly, it doesn't seem like it has already been a full year since we promised our vows. 

We froze the top tier of our wedding cake to eat on our first anniversary. Last night, before going to bed, we took it out of the freezer to thaw. Sharing our cake tonight will make this celebration official. 

Peace! Get naked. Enjoy!
