O’Natural: To Be Or Not To Be…

In my younger years I was disgusted by the thought of these nudist getaways and farms and thought to myself that only old creepy people go there. Although that might be true for the most part they do have a good point, pun not intended. In the last year or so I have been toying with the idea of loving my body and embracing nudity and the beauty of it. We came into this world naked why should we let society dictate to us that we need to be covered and ashamed of our bodies because we do not look awesome. I have been fortunate to go to a nudist beach a few years ago and experience what the whole thing was about. At that stage I was not that comfortable with shedding my gear but I did look around at what was on display. It was more the older generations on display and honestly sometimes you really do not need to see someone that reminds you of your grandmother in that position on the beach. None the less it was a pretty cool experience. When I get the opportunity again I would gladly go and try it for myself and strip away the chains of confinement that society has bestowed on me.

Beau Brummel was ostracized and criticized from pillar to post for embracing nature and nudity and talking about the things we were all thinking about but to scared to say in public. It’s not just about being perverse and checking out naked people it’s more than that. It is about sharing a common interest with like minded people. Embracing who and what you are, returning to your roots and getting back to basics. Naturally there are people who do these things for the wrong reasons and get a kick out of it. They must just get over it and move on. Of course for us males it is perhaps more of a sexual thing than for woman, and men obviously have more of a difficult time hiding it. But ultimately even an untimely rush of blood in the wrong place that may “raise” your spirits a little too much is just a natural response and you should embrace that too you dirty perv…  Its exciting and liberating at the same time and the rush of exhilaration will let you know that you are alive and that you are a perfect specimen no matter what you look like. In the gay world though it is definitely a sexual thing and the guys on Sandy bay playing with himself in public while making eye contact was testament to that. There always has to be one freak out there that keeps the stereotype alive.

Our bodies are unique and granted some are more attractive than others it is the only one we have and we need to look after it and take care of it. Love your body for what it is, every inch of it from head to toe. Love your love handles, your orange peel, your cellulite. Love your beer boep and your hairy legs because they are yours and the things you are able to do everyday with them is a miracle. Leave your issues behind and shed those clothes and love yourself. When last did you look at yourself naked in the mirror? Everywhere we go these days there they are, these super models on magazines and billboards displaying perfect abs, boobs and buts. What makes them so super? How much of that is reality and how much of that is done by a very clever geek behind a computer with a wild imagination. This geek succeeds in making you look like the perfect specimen using clever software while probably touching himself inappropriately.
You will never have those abs on the billboard because it is not real and that tight ass is only a fantasy. I have my own issues with my body and naturally there are things that you would like to change but be realistic about it. Nudity is most definitely not one of the seven deadly sins and you wont go to hell for being naked, just like you wont go blind or get hair on your palms for touching yourself.

So come on people love yourself and love your body its perfect just the way it is…
