How come Writers don't write More Sci Fi Nudist Stories

Hello everyone! I appreciate everyone or anyone taking the time to read this.

You see I love and enjoy Literotica as I'm an avid reader of Erotic Stories. Now what I don't seem to get or understand is how repressive people are when it comes to Nudity/Nudism or being Naked. Even Creative Erotic Writers tend to look down at the Nude body as Taboo in their stories. How often BDSM/Futa/nonConsent Reluctant as well other Fetishes are often praised and written extensively. Now Exhibition and Voyeur which is nothing more but flashing someone, losing your clothes, dares or the fantasy of getting a kick out of peeping toms watching them is also extensive. Now I'm not a writer or an author because I can't write creatively as others do. Not everyone can be Pilots which is my profession.

Now title Si Fi Fantasy Stories listed on Literotica such as Secrets of the Deep by Lady Malachite/The New Goddess of Goblins, Joey the Demon Brute, Succubus Apostle of The Dark God, by KNGELOL/ The Naked Weapon by Dragoncobolt/ Naked Girl by Tanyari/ Amber's Enslavement and Amber's Enchantment by DWEAVER999 and perhaps others I've missed have written these stories where the Character or Characters remain Completely Naked/Nude for most the entire story. May Gaia Bless those writers for taking this Pioneering leap but unfortunately we're being treated as minorities in this camp.

Now other people such as myself enjoy stories where prude/hypocritical human beings and Especially Hypocritical Women who supposedly hates or looks down at Nudity, Sex, Nudism or being Naked are magically or scientifically transformed/liberated/corrupted/ or mind controlled via brainwashing into becoming nudist nympho lustful human beings. How each Character or Characters(Especially Women) struggle at first with their new situation on how they may or may not adapt which in they end they do is also very erotic/sexual and exciting to me and others who wish to see more Sci Fi Fantasy/none human Nudist Stories being written. Now the preference I and others accept in Sci Fi Nudism/Nudity is MF FF, Orgies, Some BDSM, Incest, Paranormal, Vampires, Romance, Mind Control, and Exhibition based on Nudism/Nudity but Futa/Furry and underage is not. I'm begging as well as challenging more Authors out here to be open minded to Nudity/Nudism in Story Writing with regards to Science Fiction and Fantasy.

My response is that nudism is boring. I would much rather read about a world where women cover up, resulting in the exposure being both highly unusual and highly erotic. This is why flashing is so shocking, why naked dares are so...um...daring. If you are naked all the time, well, there it is, and then sometimes you decide to boink.

 

[AlinaX]

Doesn't have to be boring, but context is everything. To be interesting there has to be conflict, whether it's fear of discovery or humiliation over helplessness. Either way the writer has to both create a society in which nudity is disliked, and create a character thrust into unwilling public nudity.

You could even have a tale where one woman is wrongly arrested for midnight nudity - a case of mistaken identity - and is sentenced to be forever after naked. She is disowned by her husband and thrown out of her house, and survives as a lowly servant. Her mistress, of course, is the woman she was mistaken for...

This. There isn't anything intrinsically interesting about nudism. I've enjoyed stories that involve domestic nudity or similar tales, but there has to be an interesting relationship.

Part of what works for me is that nudity and clothing has an intrinsic power dynamic to it. If both characters are naked all the time... I don't know. Doesn't work. Not interesting.

 

[Poprockz]

I agree with all of the above. To me, the act of removing the clothes indicates the crossover from comfortable to vulnerable. To make nudity exciting, as has been said already, it must have some kind of contextual significance. It's very much a part of the foreplay.

There are definitely nude stories that are enticing, though. I feel like it just needs a little bit more to it to make up for the lack of clothes-foreplay.

In an upcoming story, Revenge Of The Cyber Queen, the cyber-dimensional villaness of the story captures a couple from Earth and keeps them naked and at one point parades them through the streets before the advanced, but sex-obsessed populace.

The group marched through many ornate and colorful halls, ballrooms and meeting rooms and the skimpily-dressed maids, butlers & workers all took the time to whistle and catcall as Johnny & Lucinda were paraded before them. Johnny struggled to cover himself, but the restraints held his arms to his side, his cock still throbbing, as the Force-Rings on his cock and balls continued their teasing torment of vibrating and constricting, arousing him to the edge of orgasm and then denying him release.

Lucinda, on the other hand, got a sexual thrill from all the attention her naked body was receiving.

Upon leaving the castle, Johnny and Lucinda immediately noticed the surrounding primary-colored futuristic spired-buildings that supported all the interconnecting open-air walkways (like the one they were currently on) as well as the blue-green sky and exotic orange sunset in the distance. As a warm breeze went over their naked bodies, they noticed the air was filled with floating high-tech billboards that seemed to be promoting risque and sexualized products and services. This whole place is about sex ! Lucinda thought to herself.

Lucinda enjoyed the view of this strange new world and it's breeze on her pert nipples and moist pussy and it briefly took her mind off of her extreme sexual frustration.

Upon leaving the castle grounds and entering the public walkways, Johnny and Lucinda got their first glances of the citizens (mostly women) of this strange realm. Dressed in shiny, bright-colored clothes that were both revealing and form-fitting, their eyes and smiles were wide with surprise and delight as they gazed upon the two naked Earth slaves.

The Force-Rings held their hands at their sides, leaving them helpless before the strange citizens, who immediately descended upon the two sexy Earth slaves.

“Hey! Get your fucking hands off of us!” Johnny demanded angrily to the strange women who immediately began to grope, fondle, lick and kiss every inch of his exposed flesh.

Once again, the force rings began to stretch Johnny & Lucinda's legs apart, forcing them into a spread-eagle position so that the lusty citizens could have greater access to their nude and helpless bodies.

A pale older woman with an elaborate green hairdo with matching “catwoman” glasses, lipstick and skintight latex mini-skirt dress all the same shade started nuzzling Johnny's neck and tweaking his nipples with her long, green-nails while saying, “Hey there sweet-buns, you working on tanning that sexy body of yours?”

I told you to---hnnnh!” Johnny replied, distracted, as he felt a tongue on his balls.

A Fall of Stardust ends with a nudist world -- of necessity, because 1) stardust made all fabrics disintegrate, and 2) aliens hid their anatomies behind clothes, so anyone 'dressed' must be killed immediately. All decent humans are naked.

But sure, write of a weirdo culture where nudity is normal and only rebels and villains go dressed. Normal folks kiss tits and cocks in greeting. That's like an incest-positive society where rebels fuck outside the family, or a fantasy world where rebels fuck humans, not centaurs.

You (and most of other responses) are missing the point entirely, I'm afraid, however showing the obvious difficulty with the concept.

For aside: nothing personal, but in my private opinion A Fall of Stardust was one (if not the) worst and least stimulating stories of the particular subgenre, nude world transition, I happened to read here. I take it as farce, sarcastic satire on the genre, rather than loving exploration of the concept, but apparently, that's what you do best, and that maybe makes it okay. The only good thing about it is the sidelined idea about clothes becoming a threat due to hiding alien infiltrators, but before of that you already declared unconditional disintegration of all fabrics (so I take, it must include human hair, btw) what realistically would bring technological civilization to halt and humans would revert to cannibalism as survival and rapid depopulation mechanism within two weeks, making any aliens running around the least of worries, but that's of course unsolicited nitpicking...

Anyway, nude world isn't what this is all about, although it is somewhat related concept. I believe that I share the passion expressed, the fetish level adoration of simple nudity in everyday-ish situations, non-threatening, non-humiliating, but not neither normal nor expected either, we're looking for near-nudists outside of nudism resort... Yeah, that's a insurmountable amount of prerequisites, but just like bearers of just about any other fetish we assume that it must be universal by default. Surprisingly (not) it isn't. Even more surprisingly, the very concept we seek seems squarely outside of contemplative reality for default Anglophone mindset.

It's far easier to show. Here, Gwen nude in Barcelona, just as something to talk about, or anything by NiP Activity for that matter.

That's the destination, the end state. Yes, if you're brave enough, it's pretty much reality, one nice girl can walk around naked, in the middle of tourist crowds, in pretty much any European city, and the camera man filming her gets somewhat more attention than the model. Well, she does turn heads, and trigger smiles.

Now, where the fantasy element comes in, is in the claim, the reason why she have to, must walk around naked in a busy city. Simply because she loves to, might or might not cut it. Also, no, it's not normal. Nor it should be, indeed, as soon it's normal it's just an attire choice, one that can be arbitrary sexy or not depending on situation and attitudes. However, many more attire choices work that way, and the story might as well present it as just that, it actually works for me. Yes, the request as I perceive it, was for otherwise whatever sy-fy story just that main hero(es), preferably heroine, just happens to be naked most of the time. Expectantly, it's somewhat organic to the scenario, or not, but it does matter, or at least is constantly reminded, but otherwise may not be an issue on itself.

Somewhere around here I already talked about my fantasies about a person (nominally a girl, but not necessarily) who for whatever reason have to go out nude (to school or work or whatever) and she's anxious and frightened and excited and everything, but for her amazement nobody reacts, it's like nobody realizes she's naked, all she gets are compliments about her great looks, but even those doesn't explicitly point out her nudity, in contrary, those are confusingly like she was dressed in most appropriate clothes every different commenter expected.

Now, why I think it's close to what the OP was talking about. The only of his given examples I'm familiar at the moment is Naked Weapon by Dragoncobolt. What's happening there, is the lad is forcefully required into world saving secret task force, stripped run through a machine that increases his present but unknown to himself psychic abilities. After that, he have to remain naked for his new abilities to work. It's not a problem, actually, it's kind of normal in his new environment, and his whole team is naked all the time. It is constantly reminded, but sorta doesn't matter. Also, there's way less sex and more suspense one might possibly expect from such arrangements. He does fuck a gigantic spider woman though. Also, somewhat contradictory, the gigantic mecha "warforms" they summon do wear armor. So yeah, it's otherwise rather run of the mill a bit over the top and farcical space opera, just the main group of heroes happen to operate mostly naked. Mostly anyone doesn't blink twice about it, the only ones who happen to have issue with it are Neanderthals, but they nevertheless form a tight alliance with their superheroes, who remain clothed. Just like general public back on Earth, who has no idea about the war, of course.

One story that I want to mention here is Allison's Inheritance by Seahawk76, it does have permanently nude heroine, but that aside, doesn't have any sy-fy elements.

Perhaps, OP could possibly love Naked in School universe, but that is unfortunately incompatible with Lit (due to age, in classical NiS rules it is exactly the status of minors that allow school to order students to strip, already over 18 or legally emancipated persons are pain in the ass to deal with and thus popular in established universe stories versus the more typical introduction stories that typically use 16-17 year old characters).

Or maybe Mailgirls universe, but that have it's own can of worms, namely, satirically exaggerated misogyny in the very concept. In case someone doesn't know, Mailgirls are corporate slaves, typically formerly successful professionals or mid-level executives who are, typically by financial blackmail, forced to become naked interoffice couriers stripped not only of clothing but even name, identified just by a number, eating specifically produced mailgirl chow from dog bowls, publicly spanked, but, at least in classical case, never touched sexually. Well, that can happen, but getting caught in that result in immediate firing of the offender (not the mailgirl, of course).

Well, I'm rambling.

Okay, since I already linked one video... anyone have some idea what's this from? That's some perfect party for the new emperor, as far I gather from the Russian voice over. Anyway, that's so great, and on the point here, I believe. It's just how it should have been all along.

Putting aside erotica for a moment, clothing does have a practical role.

In addition to environmental and hygienic concerns, it serves as a form of communication which is crucially important in large gatherings. For example, within the military, uniforms and insignia establish the chain of command and clearly identifies allies and enemies. (Admittedly, you can compensate via tattoos, brands, piercings and similar body modifications, to an extent.)

The larger point is that if you’re writing a story that takes place on a starship with a population in excess of 250 people, you as the writer will need a convenient way of describing relationships and social dynamics within that population. That nude buxom, perky vivacious 20-something young lady could very well be an engineering department section head not only responsible for the ship's engines, but also for budget, staffing, training, morale, provisioning and similar administrative needs. Contrary to some of the hopes and dreams here on Literotica, there are reasons you don’t sleep with your company CEO as easily and conveniently as you sleep with the mailroom clerk. Just as CEOs wear expensive suits, our section chief’s uniform becomes a convenient crutch for describing her status.

This is not to say that you cannot write a story wherein a spaceship setting is engineered such that clothing is not needed, or for that matter, within any sort of closed society. Even a present day nudist camp that’s geographically isolated, qualifies.

It’s just extremely hard to create multiple, parallel worlds, each with their own cast of characters, primary motivations and incentives, and still ensure that they’re logically consistent, without stopping to work out how each of these worlds can function without clothing. For example, imagine a Victorian London battling smog, too warm for clothing, dark enough to offer privacy on the streets. Our cast still has to pay for stuff with tangible coins and bills; everyone would need to carry purses or wear fanny packs. Should nobles wear scarves and fancy hats?

Looking to the future, if you have faster-than-light travel, you have unlimited food and you’ve conquered sickness and disease, it stretches incredulity to have your characters running around complaining about how cold they are and how perky their nipples are.

The wonderful thing about sci-fi is that you can take the world as it is today, change one or two rules, and imagine what the result would be. As an author however, the more things you change, the more world-building work you have to do.

(Full disclosure: I’m adapting an argument about how hard it is to consistently write and sell good science fiction.)

I'm begging as well as challenging more Authors out here to be open minded to Nudity/Nudism in Story Writing with regards to Science Fiction and Fantasy.

Writers probably don't write nudity in sci-fi because they don't want to. If they wanted to, they would. Besides, without a space suit, your friendly local astronaut isn't going to last very long .

 

[Jada59]

I've known nudists. It's not a big deal. I used to walk around naked all the time. It was actually very effective for me when I was in a bad marriage. I discovered that he thought the naked body was disgusting. So any time he picked a fight with me, I'd just flash him and he'd be gone. Heh!

I never cared if the neighbors saw me nude. Heck, I used to dance/exercise in the nude, in front of a mirror. It's a very effective technique for checking form, lines and to see what parts I needed to work on more.

My background is dance and stage acting. I never had a private dressing room and in some cases, there were both sexes in the same room. Once in a while you'd see someone's friend holding up a coat or sheet or something to provide a bit of coverage while they changed. But most of us didn't bother. We were all doing quick changes and too busy concentrating on what we were doing to look at anyone else.

Only reason I don't walk around nude now is that my gardener and his GF live with me. I don't want to make them or their guests uncomfortable.

As for the Sci Fi, that's not my thing.

 

[LupusDei]

I will link subtle hints of nudity here as my answer here too, although it is a subset and superset in different aspects.

 

[LupusDei]

The larger point is that if you’re writing a story that takes place on a starship with a population in excess of 250 people, you as the writer will need a convenient way of describing relationships and social dynamics within that population.

The way I would approach generation ship's transition into nudist society couldn't be published here. Because I would utilize normalized and then continously extended toddler nudity as the main source of the slow cultural change depicted as inevitable. Of course, that would explicitly make the whole nudity theme non-sexual (at least in uppermost level of presentation).

The uniforms and work clothes would be still there, but increasingly seen just as tools they are, and/or used in increasingly ritualistic ways. Clothed = on duty; naked = enjoying free time, is one of possible arrangements, as a stable culture or transitional phase.

Clothing's communication value is important, and in many ways impractical to substitute, but it doesn't mean that the fashions should remain the same. Jewelry and other accessories can carry a lot of it. Engineer's overalls are there to stay, it's just immensely practical tool, but captain's regalia may easily be just a robe they put on only when actually issuing orders of elevated importance, spending even majority of their time on bridge in the buff, or nearly.

In so defined setting I imagine captain putting on their robe could be intensely dramatic moment, as it symbolizes transition from collegial leadership to autocratic dictate, even if just for, say, battle scene. Then, this doesn't even need nudity, but it arguably provides the most contrast.

 

[LupusDei]

I've known nudists. It's not a big deal.

Somewhat counterintuitive, that's the whole point here! In this tread we actually seek this nudity is not a big deal feel, jet reminding it (unfortunately) isn't so in reader's world. It is the reader/writer for whom nudity is unusual and special, not necessarily the characters.

I used to walk around naked all the time. It was actually very effective for me when I was in a bad marriage. I discovered that he thought the naked body was disgusting. So any time he picked a fight with me, I'd just flash him and he'd be gone. Heh!

I struggle to believe such people exist, but unfortunately it's a fact. How much systematic childhood trauma is necessary to force one believe they do indeed think so, I hate to imagine.

I never cared if the neighbors saw me nude. Heck, I used to dance/exercise in the nude, in front of a mirror. It's a very effective technique for checking form, lines and to see what parts I needed to work on more.

Only reason I don't walk around nude now is that my gardener and his GF live with me. I don't want to make them or their guests uncomfortable.

In fantasy land, only a different ending would be welcomed, one where you convert the (younger?) couple into (at least casual) nudists, and then, one by one, convince their guests to join in the lifestyle too.

 

[LupusDei]

Writers probably don't write nudity in sci-fi because they don't want to. If they wanted to, they would. Besides, without a space suit, your friendly local astronaut isn't going to last very long .

I think a part of it is that honest depiction of nudist culture isn't welcome on this site, if even allowed. The very concept that nudity is necessary "sexy" is sometimes revolting for me. It is, of course, but not more so as lingerie, bikini, or cheerleader uniform. We seek stories that would be honest to recognize there's no actual difference, preferably packed as great discovery for the reader to find and characters to experience.

I know, I know, I should be writing some "creepy" and highly "unrealistic" crap like that instead of babbling about here. We all know it's not that easy of course, especially for someone who doesn't even speak English. Not an excuse, sure. Nor is the feel of preaching propaganda to a hostile audience; that should rather be a goal all on itself.

One spin on this was Robert Heinlein's The Puppet Masters (the book, not the dreadful movie), in which Earth is invaded by an alien race capable of complete mind control should they be able to achieve skin/skin contact with their human host.

Once the problem was realized, societal rules changed very quickly to requiring public nudity as the only way to allow the people around to confirm that you were not hagridden (and vice versa, of course). Appearing in public with clothes on was a good way to get shot.

In a military base the protagonist visited, rank was indicated by either a brassard or a badge hanging around their neck.

Heinlein noted the high proportion of ugly bodies one saw on the streets and also the human ability to screen out such sights, much like we do with billboards.

Not a particularly erotic work, but one where nudity had, by the end of the book, become essentially universal. What the solution was to inclement weather was something carefully ignored.

I 'borrowed' that idea (minus mindcontrol) for A Fall Of Stardust.

IMHO a logical consequence of mandatory nudity is fat-shaming; survivors will try to look better, lest they be ostracized. Expect society to sort into subcultures by appearance. Standards might differ in free-fall orbital colonies -- naked globular humans may be usual, with 'skinnies' either an upper or lower class. Will body-sculpting be mainstream or underground?

 

[CurtGiles46]

First off, I share your same tastes.

However, I think the lack of widespread appeal for nudism stories is that most people do not experience it as a specific erotic fetish.

Even on dream forums, many of the people who have the “suddenly realizing they are nude in public” dream don’t experience it as an erotic dream.

Also, perhaps for the person there’s no triggering erotic event or memory around the issue for them.

When I was 18, a bully stripped me nude in public. I was a senior in high school at the time and this was on the soccer field.

Despite the public circumstances, only the bully and a pretty girl student standing 10 feet away saw my penis.

What was erotic for me was the loss of control and the philosophical realization that clothes are not the security we think they are. And maybe there’s a lesson there about life.

Occasionally, I’ll be watching a news story about a region flooded after a major hurricane. I’ve seen helicopters trying to rescue people and some of the people will lose their pants and underwear in the frenzy to reach safety. The news station will blur the nudity, but I always found it interesting how in a moment of crisis, it no longer matters to someone if they are nude in public. It becomes the least of their concerns.

That’s very interesting. Worrying about other people seeing you nude appears to be one of the most quickly discarded concerns when humans are in crisis.

For the transition to a nude society, I would start with male public nudity being legal. A corresponding feminist media message would emphasize that male bodies were not special nor did males particularly need privacy in the way women needed.

The highly social/extroverted males would immediately conform and would begin spending most of their time in public nude. Eventually, even the shy males would adjust and would start being nude in public 50 days per year to show their surrender to social norms.

For women, who are historically perceived as not wanting to be nude in public, the first nudity era would be court imposed public nude sentences as punishment for criminal offenses.

Therefore, during this era, if you saw a nude woman in public you would know she was being punished for a crime.

 

[CuttingEdge]

I wrote a nudist story once and it had mixed reviews.

In my story, based on a farmer hiring a hired hand that was a nudist, it kind of broached the subject of him discovering she was a nudist. In my story, she was installing fencing in a far back field knowing he was in town getting supplies. But livestock got out and he chased them, only to see her working without clothing. From that incident, she worked almost exclusively without clothes after that. Tension within the story moved to him being worried about other neighbors seeing her working nude, until...

The sexuality of the story began when they were working on a barn and the farmer got hurt. From her helping him get bandaged up, the elephant in the room came out... "I am naked all the time, why don't you find me attractive" and from that, "I do, very much, but as your employer..." which led to sex and a happily-ever after story of them being lovers and her not being a farm hand but owning their farm. It got bad reviews because the farmer got physically hurt, and people did not like that.

As for sci-fi writings... that is just not me. I am SO, SO, SO out of touch with what the world's current market is. In writing, my style is with the short-run realistic novels of the 1890's to1910's era. Think of Steven Crane's Red Badge of Courage style here. My home is festooned with artwork of the Realistic Era, as opposed to the Impressionist, or Cubism style's. So, Science Fiction just is not my thing...

But nudism can be fun; in writing, and such art as Monet's Luncheon on the Grass, or Collier's Lady Godiva.

Interesting concept. One potential problem is that female nudity becoming equated with criminality would make average women less likely to go bare in public. Perhaps a punishment of having to be fully clothed?

 

[AchtungNight]

My least favorite Futurama story is The Beast With a Billion Backs. The villains are nudists. Go watch the movie if you need more details. Prepare to be disturbed.
