I’ve just been told that there’s something wrong with me because my whole family are nudist even the teenage kids I’ve got. That I am practically a paedophile. |

The thing is... being nude is natural, it doesnt have to be sexualised. There is a huge difference. |

The person who has told you this is probably the same type of person who thinks that swinging is wrong they just can't understand it's a life style thing. |

We’re all born naked so it’s perfectly natural. It’s the one’s who want to sexualise it that have the problem. |

Yes, if we abroad and I do live on 40 acres when no one can see and we have other families come over to be naked, but there’s nothing sexual |

Nudism is not sexual it's an expression of freedom
It's often confused with illicit acts but they get that so wrong

There is nothing wrong with non sexualised family nudism. The same with there is nothing wrong with being bisexual. Well done for having a lifestyle that you enjoy. I am quite envious. |

Nothing wrong with nudism, is just frowned upon by people who don't understand. |

That’s rubbish , I grew up with family walking around naked right up until I left home in my early 20s |

I don’t understand nudism, I don’t have the mindset for it, I love being naked, but it’s always sexual for me, perhaps these people have the same mindset.
I’m not judging you by the way, I think if you enjoy nudism and it gives you that feeling of freedom then more power to you, I’m just putting it to you that some judge others based off what their feelings and opinions are, I’m not saying they are right for judging, just some can’t comprehend that we are meant to be nude, I can’t, and I logically know it’s natural for some. |

Being naked is completely natural. There is nothing inherently sexual about a naked body. I am a life model and being naked in front of a group of artists is the least sexual thing you can do. Some people don’t understand that. They think that a naked body is automatically means something sexual. That says more about them than anything else. |

I'm not a nudist but sort of get how being free from clothes can be like freedom, at one with nature.
I suppose maybe that person meant there might be other nudists tgere who might sexualise it or indeed be looking at your children because they can because it's all on display for them too.
Not sure I would want my kids being naked round lots of strangers abd before anyone pounces on me this is my opinion and I am allowed it as are you  |

I think we all agree that naturism shouldn't be sexualised.
But... this site is about swinging and sex, so I have to wonder why naturism is being discussed here at all. Best kept apart, don't you think? |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
Would not agree your one of those! But being bought up in a naturist family yes i think its wrong! Would never have bought mine up in that environment for various reasons! Especially once I reached teenage years! My brothers actually looked at it as abuse!I dont agree with them on that! But was not good imo! |

I am big on naturism and happy to get my clothes off as much as I can. I ended up at a nudist beach with my wife, daughter and her bf. We did not go on as I was not keen on seeing my daughter naked. I did love the thought of her bf seeing my wife's tits though.
Also, I went to a BN swim in Wigton on my own once. A full family turned up, grammar though to grand kids. It was not sexual in the slightest. Although I have to say, mum and granny had great tits. |

Back in the day once a month in the local swimming pool they had a nudist bathing session it was well attended but for some reason it was stopped probably by a vanilla council member who didn't get it and thought it was like a story out of the news of the world 😂 |

Don’t worry the British are just weird when it comes to nudity unlike the Europeans who are very much more relaxed and less stuffy with life in general

Have no issues with it now that I am older. I would of died of embarrassment at the hormonal teenager phase of life. But maybe if I had been growing up with it from birth may not have been that big an issue. I certainly think I would have been less body conscious and happier at a younger age |

I'm a keen naturist and for me sunbathing naked is not sexualised at all. It just feels good and so liberating. |

Im not convinced this is genuine but let’s pretend it is . I get that naturism is something you value, but kids don’t really have a say in being raised that way. Do you think there’s a risk they might feel uncomfortable with it later on, especially as they get older and start forming their own boundaries? It seems important that they have the option to choose what they’re comfortable with without having indoctrination and potential social suicide foisted upon them because you’re comfortable with it. |

While it's not for me, I wouldn't judge anyone who does enjoy the naturist lifestyle. The main reason being it's not my business lol. Like one poster above mentioned, there's a difference between being nude, and it being sexualised |

It’s a pity nakedness has been so sexualised over time and criminalised!

actually it is other people’s business, one advertising your a nudist on your profile as the only thing about you really could be perceived as sexualised by others. That surely makes it tricky to mix into family life. There’s no consideration as to how that affects his family later on in life. I get the naturist lifestyle is important to some people, but raising children this way could expose them to bullying or social stigma later. Kids can’t choose how they’re introduced to such personal practices, and what feels normal at home might make them targets among peers and I see counselling and trauma in their future.

Whilst there isn't anything wrong with being a nudist and having that as your lifestyle with your family, I do think you risk your children being sexualised, particularly when you're talking about it on an adult sex site. |

Are we talking public nudity or private?
I agree that nudity doesn't necessarily lead to sexual urges, but it can. Back in the ‘70s nobody would have given a second look or a second thought to a 7yo being naked on a public beach. But now?
Personally I think the ages of the kids makes a difference. I don’t think many people find small children a sexual turn on but for teenagers the number would be far higher. I see the word “natural” used a lot. The urges could also be described as “natural”.
I guess if we’re talking in public the questions would be…
Why do you want strangers looking at your children when they are naked?
Why do you want your children exposed to naked adults? Pardon the pun
What advantages does the nudity give? What’s in it for you perhaps is a more simplistic question.
But I also think we have to remember that we don’t all think the same way about things. Morals are not universal. Some people think it’s ok to have sex at a much younger age than the law permits. Some people think sex outside of marriage is wrong. Some think topless men and women is no different.
Living by your own morals within the law is fine, just remember not everyone will agree. Both positions are fine. |

Absolutely 100% I was terrified of people at school knowing! I was a naturist! Other people went to church on a sunday we went to a naturist club! That said I really did enjoy our holidays at a club on isle of wight just not the naturist bit! I did get bullied about it ! |

If someone is posting about naturism on a swinging site, in this context you can safely assume it’s not real naturism, it’s an adult fantasy masquerading as lifestyle advice and people are validating it as live and let live, it’s no one’s business.

Put me in the stuffy camp then because I don’t think it’s appropriate at all. As adults, live how you want to live within the law but at what point (if any) do children have a choice in what they have been exposed to or had to expose themselves? I find it impossible to imagine that your lifestyle hasn’t been problematic and a source of embarrassment or shame at some point for your kids whilst growing up. This is something that could affect them for the rest of their lives. I understand the nudity may not be sexualised within your family home but if that’s the case then why bring it onto Fab… You also can’t control the thoughts or intentions of others and find it quite bizarre that anyone would expose their children to that unnecessary risk by supporting or encouraging them to be naked around adult strangers. |

This is not a challenge to your view but a request for you to elaborate on what exactly about it is not appropriate?
You made a good point about challenges and the mentality of those outside the home and any judgements made toward the family, be it adults or kids, but is that about the appropriate argument or just how those out in the world view these things?
The way I see it, there is nothing inappropriate about it. The real issues are more external in the views of those outside the home or those not being genuine and decent nudists (some nudists will also be creeps just as some none nudists are).
That is my main concern with it, the outside world looking in. Creeps will be creeps and they can't help themselves but anything but. |

Post said teenagers? That is 13 technically so is that an adult choosing to go naked on a beach, no? Not grown up maybe even forced into that life..
No problems with it nudity itself but allow it to happen from an age when they can consent, have a choice.
You say not sexualised but there will be many out there that will sexualise it
Christ every photo of me of a kid was naked, in a bath tub, suitsuit etc all innocent but I think people should open their eyes as sad as it is to think people do taking advantage but times have changed sorry! |

I don’t find nudity inappropriate between consenting adults but I don’t think it’s appropriate that children are brought up in a predominantly nude environment before they can decide whether it’s something they want to be a part of. |

"Im not convinced this is genuine but let’s pretend it is . I get that naturism is something you value, but kids don’t really have a say in being raised that way. Do you think there’s a risk they might feel uncomfortable with it later on, especially as they get older and start forming their own boundaries? It seems important that they have the option to choose what they’re comfortable with without having indoctrination and potential social suicide foisted upon them because you’re comfortable with it.
I agree with this. This is why I think it is better for the OP to wait until they're adults and then do what he likes. That is if the OP is genuine. I know this is my opinion and all, but, being naked around your kids just doesn't sit right with me."
The thing is, even what is normal in society is still indoctrination. We indoctrinated people to fall I lines with a "social norm" especially when that social norm goes against the natural norm.
Now I'm not saying everything that is natural is good, and society is bad but this is certainly one of those things that falls in the realms of the perspective is heavily influenced by what society feels is normal, and an inability to separate contexts.
One thing I will add, in the defense of clothing is "natural", even most heavily isolated tribes still wear clothing over lowerbody/genitals at the least. It is not like clothing is a western/northern/modern thing it has been a part of multiple societies and civilisations as a norm for thousands of years. |

My problem with this whole thing is this:
There's been many many threads about guys going to nudist beaches to have a play knowing full well that it's a public place so the line between nudity and sexualisation is blurred to say the least. Also discussing this on this site with people passing comments with erect dicks on avatar pics or full sex just feels wrong talking about being nude around family given some of the weird disturbing shit on here.
I just can't get my head around this and it sits very uncomfortably with me that's not to say it's wrong it's just not something I would ever consider doing. |

It isn't a strange comment but sadly fact.
As I said in my point a few weeks ago I have no objections to nudity I get its appeal whilst not for me. My issue sad as it is wasn't to do with nudidy or nudists but the OP mention his young kids. I said that I certainly wouldn't do it as young children could be being paraded around in front of adults when potentially those adults might only be there to get their kicks!
Sadly we live in a sick world.
If at 16 the children want and consent to do this through their own choice then fine. If you do this at home in a safe environment fine. Again my point is in this world there will always be predators and so life may not be as care free as we would hope and we have to protect the vunerable. |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
I see both sides. I agree that nudity is natural. Theoretically , there is nothing sexual about families taking part in naturism together.
Nudity is natural. Clothes are unnatural.
The conflict arises because societies have deemed nudity in public to be wrong and as said above society wants to protect children and think that naturism would attract pedophiles.
This is where the issue becomes confusing for me.... A naturist family would still be protecting their children. Perverts eye up clothed children too. None of the children we have lost ( as a society ) were taken because they were not clothed. Quite the opposite.
However despite me believing naturism and nudity is natural and because of the societies we belong in - I believe children would show their own objections pretty quickly say they once reached seven years and their wishes should be respected. Even in their own home if their parents nudity makes them uncomfortable their parents should cover up not vice versa.
I don't believe that children could handle their family having this very different moral code or behaviour practise when it goes against what their peers , school , friends and relative believe.
I do believe that prudishness and the demonisation of sex and nudity throughout the ages is why sex and nudity are so screwed up and people become alarmed at the thought and why there is so much perverted porn and why people on here and other places refer to it as 'dirty' . It's also where all the derogatory names for women ( mostly ) who part take in sex comes from.
At the end of the day if we live in this country it's best to keep nudity and nudism and naturist activities just between consenting adults.

To be clear. I don't think being naked with your family is wrong, it's not something I do but each to their own.
I do think when it's in front of strangers and children are involved then there is a potential safeguarding issue.
I also think that wanting to talk about how you and your children are naked in front of adult strangers on a site devoted to sex is at best questionable and you are the one conflating nudism or naturism with sex, perhaps accidentally, but if so quite naively. |

You make your point well. I don't agree with it. I find the concept of a "nudist family" quite difficult. Forcing children to be nudists really doesn't sit well.. However if this debate were taking place on a show like loose women rather than on a sex site where most participants have pics of erections or pussy being filled it might feel a bit less uncomfortable. |

exactly this, they’re a bunch of fantasists looking for validation. You don’t see a bunch of posts here about going to Alton towers with your family because it’s separate from swinging. They’re discussing nudity with their family inclusive of children and claiming it’s not sexualised when clearly they’ve conflated the activities. Wronguns! Fab is full of really nice people, who are desperately trying to see the best in people. Consent is key! In an age where people are even considering if parents should be posting photos of their children on line because the adult version of them might be unhappy about it forcing this lifestyle on your children should be strongly questioned

Well of course they are forced... Parents dress them or choose not to dress them. The young children have no choice in the matter. You can pick a less assertive word if you like but they have no choice or are coerced to meet the adults wishes of nudity. |

It's not just the UK though is it. Try it in most states in the us and see what happens... India.. China.. Middle East.. Where modesty is preferred... There are many countries where they have a culture of modesty. And wearing clothes or not has zero to do with Comfort with our bodies. |

What's to understand? Some people don't wear clothes. Not rocket science is it? However societies have norms and that's how people with different values can coexist. Sometimes we have to do things we don't want to because it's a society we live in. Tolerance works both ways. |

The thing is that you chose to be naturist. The beliefs and behaviours are yours.
A child cannot choose. You have imposed a lifestyle on them that exposes them and makes them vulnerable.
If it's imposed on them then their individual boundaries are not respected.
That goes for the choice to be clothed themselves and the choice to see naked bodies.
It's all very well saying it's innocent and natural. But it's wilfully naive to pretend that risks aren't real and wishful thinking that it doesn't cause them mental, emotional and psychological harm as they reach milestones of self-awareness and puberty. |

They probably had a sneaky look in the showers in the changing room in school. |

Genuine question and I'm really not trying to be funny or childish. This isnt just for OP but anyone.
How do you deal with the morning glory and the random erections as a nudist family? Im just thinking when I was a teen, I know random erections happen. Is it just the case of education and family mutual understanding? Or are you less aroused by the opposite genders body or something?
I feel like im massively overlooking something and potential being a fool. |

"I’ve just been told that there’s something wrong with me because my whole family are nudist even the teenage kids I’ve got. That I am practically a paedophile."
Rubbish and nonsense.
I think hang ups about nudity is more of a British thing really. In the UK it's very (too) common for nudity to be automatically associated with sex.
On the continent they tend to view it a lot differently. The Germans even have a movement called Freikörperkultur (FKK) which means free body culture. A very non sexual family friendly organisation.'
We go to lots of nudist beaches and see many families. Even Cap d'Agde, which has morphed from a naturist resort into de facto (although not official) swinger resort, still attracts a few (mostly French) families.
Ditto the German sauna/spa venues. While not in great numbers we often see families in them.
Of course many (maybe most) swingers are also naturists but that doesn't mean that the majority of naturists are swingers and certanly not pedophiles. |

As long as everyone is comfortable then it's fine. Ignore the idiot. |

I wonder how many of the people on here that don't like the idea of a nudist family go to nudist beaches? |

I think there's a lot of mis conceptions about naturist and naturist holidays and clubs etc.
Talking one day to a lady in her 80s life long naturist.
She said over years see family's young children then at some point some children start to wear bikini or swim trunks as they became more aware of there bodies,no body stopped them said anything. Then as teenager often stopped coming with parents not all stopped just some. Then fair few start again in 20s or 30s . Same some ladies will wear bikini bottoms no body say you must go nude ( only time that might happen is single men turn up try to remain clothed question. Be asked. But single men tend to be well vetted at clubs. I am talking well run clubs not beaches where no control |

Naturist/Nudist
Is nothing to do with sex, it’s purely about being nude and it’s only people who dont understand this that have an issue with it. I have been naturist all my adult life and my kids were brought up visiting naturist clubs, campsites, and beaches etc in the UK and abroad. One of my daughters got a bit body conscious during puberty we just told her don’t worry if you want to wear clothes that’s fine. She didn’t like the tan lines so soon reverted to being nude again.
But as always it was what they were comfortable with, we never forced them to do anything they didn’t want to do. They now have children of their own and have followed the same path. They’re not ardent nudists but when the opportunity arises they’re happy being nude in a social setting.
Naturism has nothing to do with sex people need to understand this, sadly they’re uneducated and don’t

The people calling you paedophile have the problem. They see sex where other people aren't even discussing it or mentioning it in passing.
They're projecting. |

I don't understand the attraction of naturism in a cool climate. Summertime fine but the rest of the year I want clothes on.
If you want as an adult to be a naturist go ahead but if your kids express the slightest reservation or ask to wear clothes let them. If other people pass comment on any aspect of your lifestyle (as they frequently do on mine) ignore them unless you suspect they may be right |

naturism is only fine if everyone in the family is comfortable with it and sees it as completely natural. as soon as kids start to show some reservations then its time to stop. |

Tell them not to be so silly.
I'll be going down to the nudist beaches with my daughter in the summer and that's that. I'll point out that any creepy people should be ignored and walked away from. For me it's a case of not body shaming. |

"The thing is that you chose to be naturist. The beliefs and behaviours are yours.
A child cannot choose. You have imposed a lifestyle on them that exposes them and makes them vulnerable.
If it's imposed on them then their individual boundaries are not respected.
That goes for the choice to be clothed themselves and the choice to see naked bodies.
It's all very well saying it's innocent and natural. But it's wilfully naive to pretend that risks aren't real and wishful thinking that it doesn't cause them mental, emotional and psychological harm as they reach milestones of self-awareness and puberty."
This! |

I have been to naturist places in America and am booked on the big nude boat for next year. The issue is a bit murkier over there as a lot of nudist venues are also swinger venues or lifestyle venues. Cypress Cove in Orlando is a great naturist place and family friendly. As for the general American attitude I’d agree they are more shallow we call it prudish in general. |

Seems to be quite a few ‘naturism turned swinger resorts’ considering it has nothing to do with sex
What willing adults choose to do in their own time is up to them but don’t have children be a part of it before they can give proper consent. They may not want to spend their time looking at the genitals, tits and arses of their family and other strangers, let alone be so exposed themselves. |

There's a fair few posts above that seesaw from soapboxing about how non-sexual it is to making blatant sexual references about situations whilst trying to mock non-naturist folk. Pick a perspective and stick to it.
And for those saying to not stop younger ones from choosing to be clothed, that still doesn't protect them from being in the company of naturists and exposed to naked randoms.
You can't erase those sights. |

Dont let anyone run away with idea that naturism isnt about sex.
