Hi All, We are nudists of 6 yrs and regualr as we can go nude at home or beach. Our family all know we are nudists and dont mind discussing the lifestyle, and we have done at length.
We have now been told our parents are visiting in may,and we discussed that when we all go to the beach we go clothes optional and that way we can all be together and follow the lifestyle.we have for years. Whilst we have posed the question of,will the folks mind if we go nude whilst we are on the beach their reply was definatley not, we can go nude as long as we dont expect them to join in. I would take that as approval, or are they being polite and realy dont want us to do it. mmmmm anyone else been in this position.
Even many nudists are uncomfortable being nude in their own house if they have company but are more comfortable at the pool or beach with their company.
If others are willing to accompany you to a beach that they know ahead of time is clothing-optional, then they will be OK with your and your family's going nude, even if they weren't comfortable with it in the house.
I post a sign on my door to allow people to determine if they will be comfortable with nudity (Ring if comfortable, knock if not). It works. See my article on this at www.michigannudebeachadvocates.org. Go to Articles and click on "A Tale of Two Naturists" and then scroll down to Matthew's Story.
