I've been reflecting on different cultures acceptance or comfort with nudity, hygiene, sexually or presentation.

What is your personal modesty level? Are you comfortable with nudity? Yours, others, situationally? Are there somethings you wouldn't let a partner see? Does the way you present yourself in your day to day life match with how you present in private?


I'm comfortable with partners being naked. I'm not comfortable with myself because, well, I don't think I'm attractive at all and I don't want to subject people to all this.

Now, people I don't know? If someone rolled up to the pool naked? No, fuck off. A private (or even public) space specifically for nekkid folks? That's fine because I have a choice not to go. I always say that I won't want to be part of someone else's spectacle and this is lumped into it. Don't want to wear a bathing suit because it's part of diet culture patriarchy? OK, fine yourself a place specifically for nude folks. I have no problem with that at all.

I don't let any partners watch me "groom". There's a lot of waxing involved and it's not pleasant. Otherwise...I think once you've had a child, nursed a child, and all the unpleasant things that go along with it (tears and stitches and scars), it's pretty hard to hide things. You sort of get used to everything. I don't leave the bathroom door open, but otherwise...I don't care. It's a level of intimacy that you can't get anywhere but in a primary cohabitating relationship, I'm afraid! My non-spouse partners usually get me at my most groomed if I can do that. I enjoy doing that so it doesn't bother me. I don't wear makeup, so to me, meeting them clean and groomed is still a very natural state for me since I prefer it. Alpine used to laugh at how frequently I shower, which did make me wonder. I like being fresh and clean <shrug>

I'm not sure what Does the way you present yourself in your day to day life match with how you present in private means in relation to this, though.

Well, you know, when you’re a guy who grows up walking around locker rooms naked and sharing communal showers with other guys, you just get used to it. I'm probably less bothered by naked men than I am by men in Speedos. (What's up with you Canadians?) While I’ve always been both intrigued and perplexed by the complexities of feminine presentation, I’ve never gotten the impression that anyone would swoon over me strategically exposing a little more flesh—I’ve always seemed to have greater success when I lead with a suit and tie. No, the way I present myself daily does not match the way I present myself privately—I have an utterly twisted sense of humor known only to my closest, most likeminded friends and partners; it amused me in school that I could get away with mischief because I came across to others as a choir boy. And I bathe at least once a week. ;)

There's a bit in one of John Mulaney's Netflix stand-up specials where he talks about going for a massage and the massage therapist tells him to undress to his comfort level, to which he said, "...so I put on a sweater and a pair of corduroy pants and I felt safe." That's about where I'm at these days.

I was thinking of this exact bit and concur.

I'm so attracted to him, even I can't stand it

LOL

I went for a massage a month ago and they give you monouso (disposable?) thongs. But I asked her: Should I keep the bra on or not? I had put one without straps, so not to get in the way when she would work on the shoulders. She said as you wish but I asked her because although a woman, I don't know. Maybe she doesn't like a pair of tits on display. lol

"I'll just surprise you in the shower". Nope. Just stop right there.

Ahahahahah. Exactly! :D
And really, I find shower sex highly overrated.

A well dressed man is candy for my mind. Very few things want me to get a man naked faster than the speed of light.

:D

Public nudity. Topless at the beach I can do but anything more is a hard no. The hygiene aspect bothers my OCD. I would be a terrible addition to a nudist colony.

However, being naked around lovers/significant others I can do. I also have no problem with them being more comfortable with nudity than I am....to an extent. I just want them to enjoy wearing clothes sometimes too.

Seems a bit inconsistent perhaps but how it works for me.

You have inspired me to go to the dry cleaner's and pull out the ironing board. Who knows? I might even apply for a job. That's gotta get your engine racing. :D

If I am sexually involved with someone, then I am perfectly comfortable with that person seeing me nude or semi-nude. With everyone else, however, I avoid exposure as much as I can. (I do shrug off nudity in medical situations.) I have always been extra cautious of making sure that doors are locked and that curtains are pulled shut before getting undressed. Because of that caution, I've never had anyone 'catch' me naked. Maybe I am giving myself too much credit here, but I do think that if my cautions failed and some guy I wasn't involved with happened to see me naked, I wouldn't freak out or be overly embarrassed. I think I'd make a joke of it and move on.

There have been a small handful of times in my life when I have been in public while exposing more than I normally would. Each time, it was terribly arousing.

Im quite comfortable with nudity, I wouldn’t hide from a partner and I can’t think of anything I wouldn’t let them see in private. And Orchi said exactly how I feel below

However, in public I have limits. If I show cleavage I would not wear a mini. Viceversa, If I show my legs I wouldn't wear a revealing top.

So, no my day to day doesn’t match to how I would present in private. I’m definitely more reserved in day to day life, at work etc. In private, very different.

How are you privately? A wailing banshee?🥵🥵🥵
 
I do always, at least momentarily, think about how 'he has seen me naked' when I have contact with ex-boyfriends and such. It's a funny feeling. It's not something you can ever 'take back'. It's permanent.

I'm comfortable with nudity in an appropriate context. I love being naked with a partner, and not just during sex. For work/business/public settings, my dress is fairly conservative, for practical and personal reasons. With women friends, I'm pretty flexible. If they are conservative, then I'll wear sleeves and cover my knees and cleavage, and I will be comfortable in that setting. With friends who are fine being more relaxed, I'll wear less and be equally comfortable. I think I could go to a nurse beach and be okay there as well.

What I have a hard time with is gratuitous nudity. Nudity innapropriate to the context. Nudity for the sake of drawing attention to itself. I find that distasteful and an immediate turn off, regardless how attractive the body is.
