I enjoy polls, even if the results are not really conclusive.

If you conducted a poll, on any subject, in NYC's Times Square and then conducted the same poll in Moscow's Red Square, then you would understand.

So far, I'm among the 79% of those who responded. My answer was that only a few friends and a few trusted family members know.

As for thoughts on this question and the reasons for the answer, this has been covered on numerous posts by many of those who contribute to CFF.

None of the alternatives fit my situation. My wife and out are generally out of the closet, having informed all of our Christmas letter recipients, for example. But there are still situations in which it seems prudent not to advertise it.

I guess I'm in the boat with the majority of the people so far - only certain people know. I think a lot has to do with career implications and a lack of understanding by certain people.

I agree with Evolving, I am happy to tell anyone but some people are not happy to hear or talk about nudity so I don't bother to tell those people.

Another between 1 and 2 here. While I make no secret of me beind a nudist, I don't go shouting about it either.
Since I am a tenured civil servant, my job is secure. So no worries in that area. Besides, just about everybody I work with knows anyway. (As an interesting aside, it's 'amazing' how many groans I get just by 'threatening' to come to work as a 'happy camper' for the MRW Halooween contest!

LOL, Good for you for at least mentioning,,,



It's been my experience that those that first frown, tend to ask later "So what is it really like?"

I chose 1, but fit between 1 & 2.

I am extremely open about my nudism. Just about anyone who knows me knows about my nudism.

I thought there would be more #1's than it shows. But perhaps, that is just my wishful thinking or it is still too early in the voting.

I chose 2. Please don't get me wrong. I had always told everyone how much I enjoyed the nude beach on vacation, I just never told anyone that I enjoyed the nudist lifestyle. There is a huge difference. I am starting to open up more.

Even thou I don't tell everyone that I enjoy the nudist lifestyle, I really don't try and hide it. In the summer months when I can swim, if you come by my house and I'm out back chances are I'm nude and inside. So beware.

Some family members know but I don't think they turely believe me, some friends know. The picture I choose is the responce I get when I talk of being nude or enjoy a nude life style.

I guess I'm technically a closet nudist in that I'm only nude in 4 rooms of my house and I haven't yet engaged in social nudity. On the other hand, my interest in nudism and naturism isn't a secret but no one seems to believe me or take it seriously.

Bet they take you serious if you come out of the 4 rooms and out of closet naked.
