Women have a lot of body issues, and self-esteem, to overcome, along with overcoming the fear that men may be gawking at them. It`s sad really, that so many more women are not involved in nude recreation. They could be reaping positive benefits from it. Sadly, we as a society, and I`m referring to the American society, which I am a part of, put so much pressure on women to look a certain way. If she doesn`t mean those expectations she is frowned upon. It`s very sad. Regardless of what women look like, they are all special, and each is beautiful, and spiritual, in their own way. As men we must be good role models, treating women with respect. Then maybe more will take an interest in nudism. 
And on a closing note, I don`t think it helps when a man calls a woman sexy on the board. I am sure you feel you are giving her a compliment, but some feel like you are just lusting after them. Remember, these are someone`s daughters, sisters, or wife. 
 
A very good post Jonathan with excelent points.

I totally agree with that Jonathan and Wall E said. I`m not much into social nudism except among close friends. I mostly enjoy the freedom of being nude on my own and enjoying nature in the nude. I manage to find my own spots most anywhere I travel but sometimes I`m forced to rather find an official overcrowded nudist place for lack of alternatives. There, as a fit straight man, I face the relentless stare of pervies and bisexuals who assume that because you are on your own that you are prey of their advances. For that reason I`d like to find female buddies to help each other out in such places with no strings attached.
Although eventually I`d like to find a like minded female mate to participates in this and other activities with me. I don`t have high hopes to find such friends here, since there seems to be a great mix of intentions here too. But I can asses outsiders that are not private nudists or wouldn`t be interested by how much excess clothes they feel secured under or from their reaction to casual skinny dipping stories. I know because I have been blessed in past relationships with uninhibited women that loved to sunbathe, hike or ride in the car naked but were not into social nudism either.
To help you out further, if you are not searching for a social nudist fan either but perhaps a more private naturist, you will have greater chance to connecting with many more that are out there open to the possibilities. Match.com actually has the option to search for women who are skinny dipping sympathizers and you can see photos to see how comfortable they look under their own skin. I wouldn`t suggest bringing the topic though until after you have connected in other areas later on first. Then bring a casual skinny dipping story, seek her feedback but don`t dwell in it. Even though your intentions might be clean, your insisting nudist talk might be flagged as obsessing or perversion.
Remember outsiders need to be introduced gradually, you are just assessing their openness. And don`t bring them to an official nudist site as their first experience. Keep it private, slowly progressing from indoors to the yard, to having to change clothes in the car, to a secluded beautiful but SAFE beach. If she is into you by then, you can ask her about skinny dipping together in the warm water or that it`s ok for her to take the sun topless there. Assure her that you will still be on the watch for anyone that might come close. If you have been considerate and caring but she doesn`t take the opportunity of such a place nor gives hopes saying maybe another time, she might not ever feel fine with it. 
Otherwise, you might have found a like minded mate which I must say, sharing life together is wonderful. Hopefully you have been also evolving into a better person for the sake of family, friends, a better world and perhaps a future mate. 
Live well,
Roko :-)

I have always noted the same here in New England. Not so in Europe so much. My guess is men arent raised with so much baggage about body perfect and shame. But who knows.

Bottom Line...

9 months ago

I think its how a single male presents himself. If he shows he is overly aggressive the first time around and does not show some class in his profile, he will be asked to leave, or will be ignored. One way to get along with the couples, and single females, is to be yourself, not aggressive, and most importantly when a female ignores that single male, just take it as a signal that its not that person, its may`be she is not in the mood or not interested. Bottom line sometimes being single has its benefits, which I have learned over the last few years.  Once that single male finds the one, the real challenges begin and set in.

The Singles Conundrum

9 months ago




I often wonder what life would be like if I was young again
and single contemplating my first experience at a nudist resort.  Fortunately for me my first experience was as
part of a married couple visiting together for the first time. Way back in the
early 80’s I was reading my morning paper when I noticed an article touting
National Nude Weekend. The piece went on the say that Paradise Lakes Resort was
sponsoring a weekend event whereas brave souls were welcomed to take a free
tour of the resort and would be allowed to stay for the day if you like. The
clincher was that it was a “clothing optional” resort which would allow the
novice to ease into the nudist lifestyle. We decided to check it out and we
stayed for the day. It took all of ten minutes for us both to shed our clothes
so as not to be obvious and blend in with the hundreds of guests that were
partaking.
For the next twenty years or so we frequented all of the
local resorts and whenever we were out of town vacationing we would find the
nearest nudist resort to stay. As a couple we were always welcomed with open
arms.
Almost ten years ago I found myself single again. Having
been a frequent visitor or member of several of the local resorts in the past
enabled me to make the transition easily. The fact that because I knew almost
all of the staff and management I was not subject to the scrutiny that most
singles encounter today.
To get back to my original speculation I think it might not
be so easy for the single gentleman today as it was for me. Most resorts today
have specific policies for allowing single men to visit or obtain a membership.
Some use the quota system allowing only a percentage of the single male
population. The concerns are that single females will be overwhelmed by
admirers if the ratio were not equal. Visions of ten guys competing for a
single girl give management severe panic attacks. I can see the logic in that
and when it is done fairly and consistently all is well. Where I have
trepidation is when there is a policy of selectively choosing potential members
or guests without rhyme or reason and to satisfy the whims of management.  Others have a rational policy that is mostly
common sense.  Some resorts do not allow
single men at all.
Seemingly the non-discriminatory policies often include a
criminal background check, a valid AANR, TNS or similar accreditation,
character references and possibly a probation period. This is a fair-minded
approach for permitting single gentlemen. Of course single men must adhere to nudist
etiquette and display proper behavior when visiting a resort.
Fellow nudists can all share horror stories of the single
male who consider themselves “God’s gift to women” and stalks every breathing
female in sight or the drunkard who feels compelled to bloviate and flirt with
anyone who makes eye contact. These individuals are rare and from experience
there seems to be a higher incidence rate of married men behaving badly.
Unfortunately that is a perceived problem associated with
the single male. The reality is that single men know they will encounter higher
inspection and will usually be on their best conduct. The policies at the local
resorts vary from super strict and indiscriminate, to fair and logical, or
liberal and open-minded.
Lake Como Family Nudist Resort, The Island Club, Gulf Coast
Resort and Cypress Cove are broad-minded and super singles friendly. They have
a fair and coherent policy for singles. Caliente Resort and Spa has a somewhat
more stringent policy and upon meeting the conditions singles are generally
accepted. Paradise Lakes Resort has a new rigid and indiscriminate policy
towards single men and has not been singles friendly lately.
For the most part if I was young and single again and
contemplating my first visit to a nudist resort I would find it easier to be
accepted than 20 years ago but it is still not always an easy walk in the park.
Locally most of the resorts have moved forward and unfortunately some have
taken giant leaps backwards.
For those of you who would like to be a part of the local
single nudist kinship I am the coordinator of two singles groups. Caliente
Singles meet for dinner at Caliente Resort on the first Thursday of every month
and Lake Como Singles meet at Bare Buns Café for dinner on the second Wednesday
of every month. Lake Como Singles also sponsors three singles weekends a year
with lots of fun and activities.

RE: Single Males

As Eden said, I too am not yet into the social aspects of nude recreation either at this point, perhaps because it is still so new for me.  I too am just interested in enjoying the freedom of being nude on my own and interacting with nature.   My first visit to a resort was planned for a time when there wouldn’t be a huge crowd for that very reason.  So thus far, I haven’t felt slighted as far as being a single.  I do know that many resorts have a singles quota policy and some even have couples only policies.  I do of course understand why they have those policies and don’t feel they are discriminating against me.  Fortunately I have found lots of places that are very open to accepting single members.  I don’t view nudist resorts as a place to go for the purpose of finding sexual partners so as long as I am accepted for the purpose of just enjoying the opportunities to do some hiking, jogging, swimming and sunbathing, all of my needs and objectives are getting met.  The woman I’m seeing at present isn’t interested in trying the clothing optional route at least right now, so I’m more than happy to go alone.  Who knows maybe at some point she will change her mind or if not, maybe I’ll meet someone who is interested in nude recreation and then I’ll have a chance to see the couples side of it and might then be more interested in the social aspect of it.
