Nudists are exhibitionists - Do you agree?
Return to DiscussionsWhen I look back, I find that i used to be extreamly excited in my younger days when someone saw me naked. With aging, that desire slowed down. But when I see younger generation of present era, I feel all have the desire to be seen. Depending on sexuality the expected audiance varies. Some wants to show hard on (flasing) some just want to be seen by others in its natural way.
What do you guys think? (I am coming from a male's perspective only)
I think as a nudist you are at least somewhat of an exhibitionist, but maybe also a little rebellious and adventurist too. Naturism is an alternate world right here in this world, for me, social nudity is the best time spent.
I think I have to agree with you here!
NO nudists are not exhibitionists. There are two fundamental flaws to this argument. First the definition of exhibitionism is the derivation of sexual pleasure being viewed naked. While I believe many people who like to be naked are indeed exhibitionists, nudism and the non sexual nudity that is part of the nudist way of life is is not about sexual pleasure or pleasure from being viewed naked.
Second it relies on the notion that has been popularized that anything naked or anyone in a state of nudity is de facto a nudist. This is like saying anyone or anything in a garage is a car.
So for those two reason among many others categorically NO to proposition that nudists are exhibitionists. Not even close.
In the 2000s there were some people in naturism / nudism / FKK who started the nude activism, like the nude in public movement. They said nudism would be the same as exhibitionism. We should stop that. This harms only our nudism & naturism movement.
Co-sign on this many of those people were not for the most interested in actually promoting naturism/nudism but rather self promotion as so called nudist content creator. They pushed the idea that anyone who promoted nakedness online should be considered nudists. They are in large part responsible for the degradation of the nudist way of life as the uninitiated looks at that particularly online and associates sexual nudity with nudism.In the 2000s there were some people in naturism / nudism / FKK who started the nude activism, like the nude in public movement.
