When appropriate, do you like being naked?

[kenny]

This poll is set so your vote can not be seen publicly.

By when appropriate, I mean ...
When home alone, or perhaps with only your SO also home, curtains closed.
When the temp in the house is warm enough.
When relaxing after the day's work is done, perhaps with a glass of wine, or whatevs.

I voted occasionally; it has to be only when my SO is not in the house, and after a shower.
If I'm in the right frame of mind I find very relaxing.

After enough beers, by that point privacy is irrelevant anyway

 

[Daisys and Diamonds]

im shy so i said occasionally
but in the summer i wish our backyard was more private because the house gets so hot and im not really enjoying summer heat much anymore
all our friends know to wait after they knock on our door because we are looking for pants




i may have oversheared

edit dont like being naked in front of cat because she is very judgmental

never sit on furniture or outter bed coverings without something between naked butt and it

So sailor, what's your favorite beer?

 

[Begonia]

Sigh, insomnia again.
This is entertaining esp the part about judgemental cats

I live on my own, and like to walk around naked when I feel like it.

Definitely not a good idea to do any cooking naked though, a lesson learnt the hard way!

i know just what you mean
its when you open the oven door !
sometimes after a shower i wonder around unclothed for a while
lucky no one can see in the kitchen windows

 

[missy]

Yes occasionally. I get cold easily though so generally after a shower I will wear a towel around the house as I air dry but if I am warm I go naked after a quick towel dry.

And of course I enjoy bathing and that is always clothing free.

i don't think most of your kitty cat family would find that picture in the least bit funny
i have found as much full of love as they are, a sence of humor is definatly lacking

Haha I think you are correct given all we went through with RW gate and bathing them etc. But at this point I say to them Tough luck and too bad if they don't like it. Laughter is the best medicine after all isn't it? And the little brats need to suck it up then...what they/Oliver put us all through...sigh.

the ginger king that he is

He's purring a meowlicious morning to you @Daisys and Diamonds



As you can see we are feeding him. LOL he loves to eat. Can you believe he was ever 2lbs? I cannot.

Little Oliver...just a few months ago.

I can't find it, but there's a joke I heard recently in which two cats make fun of their naked humans.

One cat says to the other, "The man has his tail in the front, and the woman is missing her other 6 nipples."

I am a bat and an owl, in that I prefer the dark and the cooler temperatures, and prefer to keep my blinds down and curtains drawn. The only place where the curtain is not completely down (it is partially down) is the kitchen. However, it is facing the garden that is surrounded by a 6 feet tall fence without anyone overlooking into my kitchen.

It would be nice to have a jacuzzi in the garden and be able to go in and out naked. Somehow I doubt if the neighbours would approve!

its a thing here - a tradition in some parts - (not too gross)
but lemon trees need to be peed on
and we have a huge tree
but just the way the two story unit behind us looks long up our garden and the way the neighbours next door have their front door in such close proximity to our fence and said lemon tree, it dismays me no end i have not been able to pee once on my lemon tree
and ive always wanted a lemon tree to pee on

 

[kenny]

So, THAT's why lemons are yellow and tasty nasty!

 

[OoohShiny]

I love 'hanging out' naked lol

I am gutted that the villa we have been to several times is no longer available because the owner had to sell - it was half a mile from the nearest house and totally unoverlooked, so you could get up and then have breakfast naked, lay in the sun naked, have a swim naked, rinse off under the outside shower naked...

It just feels so 'free', and it's nice to get some breeze through the trees, if you know what I mean

Once you're over the initial 'titillation' of it being a new experience, it's just a normal thing. Everyone should try it!

It is freeing to be shorn of all the material things that are supposed to define us and our place in a hierarchical society, and a good reminder that, really, we are all the same underneath whatever expensive things we adorn our bodies with.


Society, especially in the US from what I can tell, is so hung up on 'naked = bad!!!1!1' that it is unhealthy. Naked is the way we were born, free of judgement and negative association. Naked is not 'dirty' or 'paedo' or 'pervy' - it is a natural state.

If anything, naked = funny, as the human body comes in an array of shapes and sizes, and some parts can look amusingly odd lol


We should be proud of our bodies and how they carry us through our short time on this rock spinning round the sun, though, not be so ashamed as to hide them under layers and layers of clothing, even in our own homes with no-one else around.

And so what if someone inadvertently sees us without clothes on? They should knock before entering or stop staring through the window, lol.


I have a friend who thinks it's weird to sleep naked, like it means the bedsheets will be filthy dirty. As has been pointed out, that's why we shower... and if he is thinking that sleeping naked = dragging your arse across bedsheets and covering them in filth, well, perhaps some more care needs to be taken in his bathroom and showering department!!

IIRC studies have shown that sleeping naked gives health benefits, by making people feel more relaxed, and the benefits of skin-on-skin contact are known in child care and must surely also carry on into adulthood.

overseas people never really quite get this ...mind you my mum wouldn't either

 

[chrono]

Too cold to be without clothes most of the time.

My mother learned a similar (perhaps the same?) lesson once putting a cake in the oven. Boob + oven rack = burn with parallel lines. Can't remember why she was baking naked... it was the 70s though, so I'm just going to chock it up to that.

Currently my nakedness is limited to sleeping, and only at TR's. At my house I sleep in a night shirt or something because I get up to pee in the middle of the night and my house is always cool.

 

[kenny]

I wonder whether splatters of hot fat from frying bacon hitting boobs is more or less painful than it hitting a man's Mr. Johnson.

Anyone know?

Oh wait!

Perhaps this could qualify as a Zen koan.
To answer the question, pain from both would have to be experience and compared by the same person ... but, how could that happen?

 

[kenny]

Sorry DJ, but what is TR's.
I hope TRs is not Trump Resorts.

 

[Dee*Jay]

TR is the short name for my current boyfriend.

As for your question about bacon grease, not having a Mr. Johnson I can't address anything related to that, kitchen accident related or otherwise, but I do have a small scar on my arm from when I was cooking bacon in junior high. Even now I remember it hurt like a mother so I'm not even gonna think about it hitting the other parts -- male or female -- you mention!

 

[737liz]

Yes. I routinely strip down to undies when I get home. I don't like the idea of actual bare butts on furniture, but I let everything else... breathe. As does my partner. He takes it a step further and tries to sit fully naked on the couch, which to me is just a tad too gross. So then i yell at him about hygiene until he complies. In public, not so much anymore. In my teens and 20s I would go topless whenever I had the chance and occasionally nude if I was at a nude beach while on holiday. But these days? No way. It's a one piece with an ankle length sarong.

 

[kenny]

Agreed!
IMO, poop residue on furniture, or anywhere, is 100% unacceptable!

Hence I'll indulge only right after a shower.
Even then, there will be a disposable paper towel barrier to preserve sanitation.

 

[Daisys and Diamonds]

there is a mall fashion jewlery store in this part of the world called silver moon
they used to have a billboard with a naked model wearing jewlery, i think it said something like
never be naked

I take all ads with a grain, or more, of salt.

We used to have a top loading washing machine and since we had a baby and I was pumping I would frequently be topless.

Until while loading the washer the lid fell and I slammed my boob in the washer!

Now with two boys 5 and 13 I am always covered up and we now have a front loader so there's that too.
