To me it is extremely odd. Unless the person is way out of shape or something that looks very bad, I don't understand why so many men are repulsed by male nudity.  On the other hand, some people I guess could simply be repulsed by the human body. I don't know. Also are there any straight men who appreciate the beauty of male nudity?  There is a nice picture for this group. It is quite attractive. I don't find it sexually attractive. I just like it. I live in a society where men claim they can't tell (as if they are blind) if a person of the same gender is attractive or not. I mean men here. Females comment on each other's beauty all the time. But going beyond that, being nudists (If you've ever spent a lot of time nude and you are straight) do you "notice," "appreciate," find "attractive," or however you would describe it--the male form? Someone had to pick the picture for this discussion group. I don't assume it had to be a gay person. If straight, that picture appealed to that person for some particular reason.Since I'm not completely straight, I find this really hard to understand the various responses people give on the topic.  My feelings are obviously different.Does anyone have anything to share about this? It would be helpful to discuss it. I understand that this group being a bunch of nudists are sometimes in the same boat in that they accept nudity and wonder why people don't feel more comfortable. Either way, I'd love to hear your thoughts.

    It is a matter of upbringing of the individual and the acceptance levels one is prepared to to support or decline. We actually can say thanks to the media for having great negative impact on nudity as well. Fashion is a great deterrent of nudity, which they think, isn't flourishing if nudity would be more widely accepted. There are a lot of trendsetters out there, however nudity is not the frontrunner.

    I think it is wrong to suggest straight men find nudity repulsive. Some may, but then some bi or gay men may find it repulsive also. I don't think people's opinion of nudity is connected in any way to their sexuality and to suggest so is a gross generalisation. Some periods in history were more tolerant of nudity than others, and today certain cultures are more tolerant of nudity than others. Views on nudity vary quite dramatically, but without scientific proof to the contrary I don't think we can link them to sexuality.

    I think it is the way they were raised by their parents, that was what was wrong with me and the fact I had a small penis too. I was told that you never let anyone see you naked and you don't look at others. Then in the sixth grade I had to start taking showers after PE,  so I went to my dad and told him they were trying to make me take showers with the other kids and he just said I had to do as they say even though it was totally against the way I was raised. It took a week or so to get over and by then the pantsing had started, then when I was about 17 a bunch of us guys were running around and one suggested one hot night we go swimming at the YMCA, he told us others that it only cost a quarter and everything we needed was furnished, It was but he forgot the small detail you had to swim naked, but we went on and done it anyway. After I graduated I started driving a truck and after a while I started driving long distance, usually gone a week or too. The only showers were gang showers at the truck stop, it was that or stink. This pretty well ended my shyness to being naked around others. So it didn't take long to realize that there is nothing wrong with men being together naked. It all started in the sixth grade with showers after  PE, something most kids don't have now. It should be required in all schools for everyone.

    In the US, I think it's religion. They're told that it's a sin, hence the increase in the locker room towel dance, etc. It wasn't this way years ago so it can only be the proliferation of Christian preaching.

    I don't think the idea of public nudity (I guess this is what you are getting at) being abhorrent is limited to straight men.  That's a stereotype that should be challenged.  It's not just straight men.  Lots of people, straight, gay, trans, bi, whatever, have a problem with nudity.  It's about culture, religious upbringing, and so on.  Some of us are brought up in a culture of shame - and being naked for some people is shameful.  I was brought up by a mother who thought anything to do with sex was shameful, and being naked was always equated with sex (which any nudist worth her or his salt knows isn't true).  Generalisation sometimes have truth behind them, but are usually dangerously inaccurate,

    i also think it depends on the region your from too.i'm from the west coast where its not a big deal(usually) but i had a co worker from the NYC officefly in a few years ago.. and i told him to save his per diemfor the hotel as pocket money and stay with me..  we went out drinkin and he fell asleep first,on the inflata-bed in my room.. when i woke uphe was already up.. i went in to grab my coffee in the kitchenwhere he was.. stark  bare assed naked.. and was hitting the showerwhen he was like " uh gross.. put that thing away.. .. dude i can seeyour dick"  LMFAO yeah that was the reaction he had.  He was a guy that went to the gym all the time, too, so it didn't occur to me he'd have hang ups about a lockerroom envireomentin my mancave.   i lost contact with him soon after just bc of that reaction.. no one *ever*wants to hear that their nudity ( especially in their own home) is repulsive to them
