Ten tips for
first time nudists
- For your first time, go to a naturist resort (ie: one which
is set in wide, open natural surroundings) - possibly a campsite with
caravan and cabin stay. The great thing about these is that they are
relaxed, with plenty of privacy when required, and they generally have
a central area with spas and seating where you can relax, socialise,
and be among like-minded people. Spend a bit of money and go somewhere
nice. This trip will set the tone of all your future nudist endeavours.
You only have your first time once, so make it good!

- Go somewhere at least a few hours drive from where you live. There
are two reasons for this. (1) It lessens the chance of your seeing anyone
you know - it's much easier to strip for the first time with only strangers
around (trust me - any nudist will agree). Also, (2) it lets you feel
that you are away from all the daily stresses and conventions of life.
This should be a vacation, and a vacation is much more fun when you
actually vacate your usual haunts. Also, you'll be more inclined to
follow through if you make the whole experience into an adventure.

- This one's for the nervous men out there. Guys, I know what you're
thinking, and it involves the behaviour (or lack thereof) of your pee-pee.
Let me reassure you…you will not spend your entire visit to a nudist/naturist
resort with an erection. Believe me, you are no more likely to be erect
after you've disrobed than you are walking around in your suit-and-tie.
Granted, you may very occasionally become semi-erect (or even fully
erect), but no more so (and probably less) than you would in fully clothed
circumstances. So stop worrying about it. It simply will not be a problem.
Any nudist will back me up on this one.

- Take a "security blanket". Your "security blanket" is something non-obtrusive
which you can discretely use to cover your genitals. You won't actually
use it, but it'll make you feel a bit better during your first five
minutes of nakedness. For my first time, I took a guitar, which I could
kneel down over and play (thereby covering some key areas of my body)
if required. Some other forms of a "security blanket"' could be a towel
(not worn, but carried), a big satchel, a large cooler box, a deck chair,
or a picnic blanket. I'm sure you can think of something.

- Flirting/being flirted with can be uncomfortable or intimidating
even when clothed. When you're naked, it can be even worse. As any experienced
nudist will tell you, nudism has nothing to do with sex, and flirting
with strangers is frowned upon. Feel free to be affectionate with your
established partner, but please respect others' desire to be comfortable.
If someone is flirting with you and you are feeling uncomfortable, do
something about it, which makes it clear that his/her attentions are
not welcome. If you feel like you are being harassed let the owners
or staff know, and they will deal with the problem. This said, neither
my partner nor I have ever encountered this. Apparently, it is more
likely to happen on nudist beaches (which are free-to-access by all
kinds of people, including gawkers - clothed individuals who like looking
at nude people). That's why we only go to places which are somewhat
out of the way (in terms of location), and where you have to pay to
stay.

- Pack at least two items of clothing: a comfy, button-up long-sleeved
shirt (casual flannel is fine) and a pair of slops (or thongs, as they
are sometimes called). I also usually take a jersey and a pair of sunglasses.

- Two words: sun cream!

- Two more words: insect repellent.

- And two more. Bring book. Um, ok, maybe the concept needs a few more
words to be fully articulated, so here goes. You are probably going
to spend a fair amount of time sitting in the sun and reading. To do
this, you will probably need reading material. I usually bring several
books and magazines, but I am something of a readaholic.

- Don't try to loose 3kg off your buttocks/wax your pubic region into
a perfect "v"/madly exfoliate your buttocks just because you will be
going naked in front of strangers. Believe it or not, nobody will care
how you look (except for commenting on that interesting piercing), and
you will find that body shape, size or texture will cease being important
in your interaction with others. I'm sure a psychologist could explain
this phenomonon, but I'm not a psychologist. All I know is that this
is very true - being naked makes all of these issues…unimportant. You'll
see.
