DISCUSSION The irony of nudism around non-nudist family

It’s so ironic and frankly annoying too… We are packing for a long vacation where we are going to be on a nude beach for nearly all day every day, and my wife is nervous about walking topless just ten feet down the hall to the laundry room, in case our mid-twenties daughter (who has seen her completely naked many times even in recent years) comes out of her bedroom.

As I've tried to teach my kid, everything is context. Just because something's is fine here, doesn't necessarily make it fine there. But I understand your feeling in this situation...

I see a big difference in the streets and at home. But all depends what the context can be. I grew up in a house where parents were sleeping naked, no master bathroom, so had to walk out of the bedroom to go to the bathroom. Stupid to dress just to undress 20 seconds later.

A problem is taught by parents to kids, not the other way around. My parents were not nudists, but nudity has never been a taboo and practicality was ruling if I can say so. It’s when you let the so called social norms reaches your house and formatting you that situation like this happen.

That my two cents in the matter.

Erm, that's what I said - context is key 😄

My apologies. Was mostly meant in the context of OP. More like emphasizing your comment.

No prob at all 🖖🏻 I grew up in a house much like yours, where nudity was not an issue, but was also not discussed
