When I was a teenager my dad rented an old farm house that had lots of privacy. You couldn't see the house from the road. My folks are very conservative and would not approve of me walking around naked all the time so I had to sneak it when they weren't home. In the summertime when dad and stepmom would leave for work, I would go out and play and do my chores in the nude. One weekend morning when everybody was home I was drying off after a shower and getting dressed, I think my dad must've noticed my lack of tan lines because he was looking at my waist area where there should've been a tan line. I didn't even have a farmers tan. Let alone a tan line around my waist implying that I was shirtless. He asked me, "You don't go outside without any pants on, do you?" I lied and said, "No." Lol He never brought it up again. Now a days I don't tan at all. I just burn and then go right back to pastey white lol. Oh well.
I was at a commercial hot spring the other day, just swimming and soaking and had been talking to a couple. I went in to shower and it was a communal shower in the mens locker room. The guy I was talking to came in and showered too and complimented me on my all over tan. i said I have a private deck and usually go naked around the house. Then i complimented him on his allover tan, and he said his is from a tanning salon.we agreed to maybe meet later in the summer up in the mountains with our wives.
Way back in the early 90s I spent a week at Hedonism II in Negril. When I got back from my trip I stopped by my travel agent to thank
them for their leg work in making my vacation a success. The layout was a big open room with each of the agents having a desk in a corner. As I was leaving one of them said. " great tan" Without thinking I said " and no tan lines" To this day I have no idea who else in this small community was within hearing distance.
Years later I learned from one of the agents they had a a nickname for me. Nudie Boy.
Ive got a checkup coming in the next few days with the GP; I dont think those folks could spot an amputated finger if it wasnt on their tablet checklist. The days of the doctor having you get in the paper gown for a real examination are long gone. Anyway, the lab results came in & all my levels are good so it will probably be just a quick in & out. That is. . . once I get past the waiting room! LOL
Oops, I meant to add a line to the above about noticing a lack of tan lines. In a word, n o , they dont seem to look close unless its on their medical tablet or bloodwork list. They really could do better but everyone is into the checklist routine. Oh well.
AndyDi. We have a new dermatologist. When we went in for our 1st visit/consultation, she looked us over and seemed a little timid on doing an exam like our previous dermatologist. I then told her, "We are nudists." To that, she replied, "then I should do a full body check. Are you okay with that?" We told her about our exams over the last 30 years with our previous doctor and she seemed relieved that she could do a proper exam without concern for our modesty. When she examined me, she did comment on my all over tan. "That's a very nice tan.
You seem to have found another great dermatologist. Does she see both of you at the same time? Are you nude for the exam?
Our doctor said, "if she's uncomfortable with seeing patient's nude, she's in the wrong line of work!"
Im going out on a limb here and saying that quite a few doctors are being this way, maybe its due to accusations of unprofessional behavior.

I hosted a father son biking team. I list my place stating that I am a nudist. I did not go nude around them while they were here. The father thanked me for it. I pointed out that his son was in pre-med and would need to get used to naked flesh. The father agreed that he had not thought of it that way.

We were routinely taken into the hospital setting where we were exposed to nude patients of various stages. The doctors and nurses explained that when we are in the field, we will encounter situations where we would need to strip the patient to check for injuries we may not see with a clothed patient.This happened once to me where I neglected to expose a male patient that had been shot and stabbed. I documented the GSW's but mistaken the stab wound blood to be GSW blood. The stab wounds were more serious than the GSW wounds. Never made that mistake again. Truth be told, I had to take over several times for partners that didn't want to strip a patient due to embarrassment.
I have read and heard multiple times that trauma patients are usually stripped nude early in the examination process process in order to check for hidden injuries.
