Any other Nudists?

[rangie5litre]

G'day All,

If there is anyone besides me and JDNSW, where do you go? bush, beach or both? I've been a practising Naturalist for about 30 years or so.....seems like a lifetime!


style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif

Cheers Scott.

PS hope I don't break any forum rules here..... 8O

[VladTepes]

Don't be shy you say :?: Looks like they are mate :!:

If you've been practising for 30 years you should have got the "hang" of it by now.

[rangie5litre]

You might be right Vlad! 8O I guess there is no middle ground here, a person either is or isn't! LMAO!

Anyway, minority groups in Australia get lots of attention........sometimes not the right sort though.........


:roll:


Cheers Scott.

[JohnE]

Interesting never thought of it as a hobby.
Did a corpse job at River Island nature resort a couple of years ago, the team camped out on a flat near the river. Some of the boys got into it around the swimming pool in the evenings, I couldn;t drink enough to feel comfortable.
However did have a go from the showers, walked around for a bit, it certainly was different.

good on you.

I have been to a beach where nudists hang out but i was clothed, does that count?

There was an article in LROI a while ago about a couple who go green laning naked in the UK. Matt

[rangie5litre]

G'day Matt,

Most of our gazetted nudist sites are 'clothing optional', Samurai is for example. Popular with board riders, gets a nice even break.

It's popular too with families because it's National Park[no pets] and doesn't get the 'hoons' that Stockton sometimes attracts, and is safe for small kids as there is no thoroughfare like Stockton, speedsters are made most unwelcome! :evil:

Nice spot for an overnighter in good weather too 8)

Cheers Scott.

[p38arover]

I'd like to be but I've seen myself in the mirror. 8O

Ron

[rangie5litre]

Have you heard the expression.'how come most nudists are people you'd rather not see naked?'

Well, I'm no exception!!! :roll:

[JDNSW]

Where do I go? Mostly River Valley, near Echuca, usually once a year, mostly at Easter. (note this is NOT optional dress)
But my house was built by my late wife and myself for nude living the year round. Nearest neighbour is four kilometres away, so I don't have to GO anywhere!

[rangie5litre]

Sounds like the lifestyle I can only dream about......my wife doesn't share my love of the outdoors, she's is, and always will be a 'home comforts' type. My son who's 10 loves the bush & beach too, but he has his Mum's Pommie skin and burns sooo easily! Sorry to note your wife's passing.

Where in Central West are you? Some great country out that way!

Cheers Scott. 8)

[JDNSW]

"Where in Central West are you? Some great country out that way!"

Near Dubbo - border on the Goonoo State Forest.

Nudists have heard all these jokes before - but it not about appearance.

[JDNSW]

Oops! Lost an S. That will teach me to submit without viewing my post! Nudists have heard all these jokes before, but its not about appearance.

[rangie5litre]

I agree JDNSW, it's not about appearances at all. Lots of different shapes, sizes, colours and ages. Different people with a common preference.

I spent this Sunday on Samurai with my ten year old son, warm in the sun but the water freezing! Brrr! 8O

He's been used to nudity all his life, and thinks it's nothing special at all, even at home. He can't understand the fuss people make when they are 'exposed' to it for the first time. I've spoken to a lot of people over the years, the ones that are only 'trying it out' or 'looking' get a little uncofortable when you walk up and say 'G'day'. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif

That normally don't stay around much after introductions are made!

I love the lifestyle and live it every chance I get 8)

Scott,
I met my late wife at a nudist swim night in Melbourne - and was introduced to her by her 13y.o. son who had conned me into playing chess with him. Both my stepsons were raised as nudists and one met his wife at River Valley - they now have three nudist daughters (well, one is still in nappies at two months).

So we all have difficulty understanding people who have problems with it.

[rangie5litre]

Hi John,

You mentioned River Island, I've never been there but I have customers at work that are regular visitors. They tell me the country is great and tyhe four wheel driving is good too. What's your opinion?

Cheers Scott.

[JaneT]

I will not go naked in front of people! Yikes !!!

However I wish I could feel what other people thought of me was of no consequence.

It is not just about being naked, it is about being judged. Will people stare at my (who know what) or will people prefer to say I am a bad housekeeper or bad worker. We are so judgemental. It is never really about what we want or what we are happy about it normally is all about "what do others think about us".

No wonder we are all stress buckets, can't please everyone, may as well please ourselves.

Still I will save the world from the stress of seeing my naked body style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif

[rangie5litre]

G'day Jane,

It's true........being naked is a great equalizer. there are no class distinctions!

When I peel my clothes off I feel as though I peel away troubles and stress. It's one of many reasons I do it. My wife doesn't feel the same though, it's very much a case of horses for courses!


Cheers Scott 8)

[blitz]

I'm not sure if I'm a nudist or not, I live in the bush near Darwin and I don't care if I wear clothes or not, but I always wear boots in case of snakes or bities in general.

Cheers Blitz

P.S. Darwins weather is conducive to wearing very little

I hope you both wear clothes when working on your Land Rovers, you may get something caught otherwise, as for me, well apart from the odd skinny dip I ain't tried it (bit hard whilst living in suburbia)

Just call me "a clad nudist":D



Oh Good on ya John

[Slunnie]

I'm similar to Dobbo. Skinny dip is fine, but hate seeing other randoms in the nuddie. Unless they're hot that is..., and fun....... hmmm, like backpackers.....


Thats it, I packing for Fraser right now! :firedevil: bye folks. :D

"It never happened without pics"
Sorry but someone had to do it

[Slunnie]

Awwww, I'm still here. :(

I'll just have to use my imagination. :angel:

[dobbo]

Wasn't there a nudist beach on the north shore of Sydney? Either Palm beach or Whale beach or around that area?

Is it still there?

[dobbo]

Nudity is fine...for everyone else but I like to keep my gear on in public and wish some other people would as well. Some shocking sights out there :p

Nothing like ducking in behind the bushes for a wee on Bribie beach and emerging to find a naked man lurking in behind the dunes. Fair makes the skin crawl...sorry you nudists but why do they always seem to be old men with nothing much to look at...belly flab and man boobs...yuk!! :p

Whereas I am trim taut and terrific (NOT!!) :(


Don't you hold back now

You tell it like it is

[dobbo]

O.k guys the fun is over

JD how long have you been a naturalist for?

[JDNSW]

Well, actually I am not strictly a naturalist, although I suppose in nineteenth century parlance I could be described as a natural philosopher. (geophysicist)

The word you are looking for is naturist, and your mistake is why I prefer the word nudist - they have the same meaning, but the latter is less likely to be confused with a totally different word.
OK, having had my fun, to answer your question, somewhere around 25 years, although there was no instant decision, no single event I could point a finger at. Probably the first time I was nude on a public beach was in 1983.

I suppose you don't Slip, Slop and Slap then

I'd imagine the Series seats would get a tad hot in the summer months!!!

So it's not something from the swinging sixties you just held onto then?

I applaud you John, it would take guts to strut about in your B'Day suit. I'd want to be buff and cut and hung like a horse before i'd even consider it. Mind you with your beard, your basically covered.

Is it just a home thing of do you gather with other nudists?

[dobbo]

I do not mean to offend by this post but

I keep having images of them XXX ad's you get whilst late night TV surfing. You know the ones of the chicks that say "Talk online to hot naked girls now"

Guys do not waste your money, were doing it for free on AULRO, just replace the naked girls with JD


So back to his original question, who else is surfing the forums in the nuddie?

Nothing to do with either the swinging sixties or showing off. I always use sunscreen and a hat while outdoors. Probably started as a delayed result of working in a remote area of PNG where clothing was noticeable by its absence in the locals - and in that climate they had a point!

I actually met my late wife at a nudist swim night in Melbourne, and our family (currently myself, one stepson, d-i-l, three children) have a holiday almost every year at a nudist resort. I might comment the son met his wife there when they were both children. At home I rarely wear anything indoors except when I have non-nudist visitors. Outdoors depends on the weather and what I am doing - as you comment for example, in hot weather the Series seats are a bit uncomfortable, but also things like fencing need full covering, particularly if you are using barbed wire! Most workshop jobs I find overalls and boots a good idea.

John

[JDNSW]

John...while we are on this, are you lot Smoothies ?( there is some fancy word for it that I can't get my mouth around, and anyway, smoothie sounds better :) )

I understand there are exclusive groups just for the smoothies.

No; and I've never run across these exclusive groups. In my experience some people shave or trim, same as faces, nobody really takes much notice, same as they don't with beards/shaving.

[Slunnie]

Ah, I may be a little naive, but whats a smoothie or whatever it is that you're trying to get your mouth around? :D

[dobbo]

All I can say is this has been a very revealing thread:D

[Slunnie]

Well...the official word for it is acomoclitic...bit hard to get your mouth around that one, but basically means removing all your pubic hair to be totally nude.
Ah ok. We used to call that Shiny.

[dobbo]

Slunnies from Sydney so he would know it as a SBC (sack, back and crack wax)

Thats right! :D

Also, the Brazilian.

[JDNSW]

Well, there seem to be a lot (several, anyway) much better informed than I am - and I've been a nudist for quite a few years!

John

[dobbo]

It would be an age thing John...shaving or waxing body hair is far more popular these days esp with the fellas ;)

Well don't look at me thats a bit too Metrosexual or even Oxford St for my liking, each is too their own though, I used to have a mate who took an hour to shave, before we went out on the town, the other guys were a bit cautious around him!!!!

[JDNSW]

You saying I'm OLD? - you're probably right, you know.

John

[dobbo]

I'm just thinking of the economic benifits of being a nudist, you'd save on water and washing detergent, clothes would last forever, no ironing therefore saving electricity as well. JD you'd be saving thousands per annum.

You'd use a bit of sunscreen but hey no plan is perfect!!!

Soooooo....If I happen to be passing....I should give you plenty of warning of the impending visit.........................Should mention here I spent most of my life in PNG.......only made me all the more attached to me clothing, Jeez ya would'nt want to wake up with a Chimbu meri along side :eek: :D ;) ....pretty hard to explain :)

I read Groucho Marx's bio some years ago; from my distant memory:

he said: I was told to go and see Hair (the stage play), so I stood infront of the mirror, naked, and thought 'would I pay eleven bucks to see that?"
So i didn't bother seeing 'Hair'....

GQ

[mcrover]

I was once took a bet that I wouldn't get my back waxed and I know I will never do it again.

I took another bet on the pubic hair and now I know that was worth more than th $100 I won.

I got drunk and went nude at a new years party on a dare and grossed everyone out.

So Nudity and waxing is not for me.

You have to try everything once just to see if you will like it (and in this case if anyone else will):D

As a kid we used to go to the South of france on holiday. wow belive me you see some sites there. The french may not wash and may be smelly and general not like by us poms (for too many reasons to mention on here:) ) but one thing they are is open.
Most of the beaches there are nudist beaches (most mixed with normal beaches , well normal in france as they all have their tits out all the time anyway). And as a young teenager you see some really nice things and you see some really nasty things
Enough to put you off going to the beach for life

I heard there is a nudist colony called 'White Cockatoo' or should that be 'White Cock or Two' :angel:

[Bushie]

Had cause to go to River Island Resort (nudist/naturist) between Mittagong and Wombeyan Caves, a while ago didn't see a thing. Maybe being in the middle of July had something to do with it :confused:.

Having said that I don't mind the odd skinny dip, fat and 50 but not easily embarrassed, but I do respect others feelings.

[UncleHo]

G'day All:)

The beach on the North Shore of Sydney was Reef Beach, opposite Manly even had it's own beach inspector, Bob Reed:) most of the regulars were off duty hospital staff and police, I was using that beach before it was made legal in 75, a very good family beach, Lady Jane was on the Southside down the ladder just a little east of Watsons Bay,used mainly by the Kings Cross and gay set, best inviroment to bring up young children in, (under 10's)they just execpted each other. Didn't have problems with perverts until moving to Qld :( also at certain "Grounds" ,also Bribie beach used to be OK in the 80's but development killed that, and it was also posted in Gay Mags. BTW the family never grew up to do Booze or Drugs.

I was at River Island over Easter and there was one woman there of whom I asked "Are you a model?" She assured me she wasn't but, by gum, she could have been. It was hard to take one's eyes off her especially when one was sharing the same spa.

[banjo]

Yes I was when younger. When I was a kid we lived at rosco nudist club at Freemans Waterhole. I believe it's still there. I'd like to go back there & have a look see how much it's changed. We lived there for a year. Was awesome. Threw the week we had the run of the place. Big pool kids play area couldn't ask for anything better.
