Hi Everyone,
I am new to Tribe and I must say that I am really enjoying my experience :) I read a previous posting and the caption was Why Be Naked??? When I read it I was surprised to find a woman 1) labeling people she does not know as Freaks because they enjoy the natural self, 2) she also wanted to change a man because he likes being au natural...I think that labeling and stereotyping is wrong on all kinds of levels but trying to change a person is even more wrong...I can't help but wonder was this mans free spirit part of what attracted this woman to him? If so then why try and change it? Being in a relationship does not mean you have to sacrifice who you are by any means....I mean yes there are sacrifices and compromises but not at the risk of who we are.....It's about growing as a individual, growing together, etc.....it's clearly not about trying to change a person for another person hang ups, or prudish ways....I think that a person should not knock what they don't know or are not willing to try.....I think the question should be "Why Be Naked"??? I have many answers for that.....The body is beautiful (doesn't matter what shape or size), it's freedom, it's natural, it's exhilerating, it's who we really are unmasked etc......I mean think about it we came into this world naked, we are naked when we shower, when we have sex, etc......I don't think the problem is with nakedness itself rather it is peoples views of it which is a shame.... To my fellow nudists kudos, to those trying to change us try it you might like it and if your not willing to explore your au natural state then don't be foolish and judge, label, etc on something you know nothing about and are not willing to try.....Im sorry but that post struck a nerve with me....
Bright Blessings and Peace :)
