Male Bonding2
For those who like to explore the concept and dynamics of male bonding. Men are socialized in different ways in different societies, and so many men would like to have close male friendships, yet after spending time establishing a career, primary relationship and live in general, find themselves without close male friends. Many of us want male friends with whom we can share openly without...

younger and older nude guys
Return to DiscussionsI miss having the opportunity to hang out nude with other men,
including younger men. I had many of those experiences for a good
20 years until life and career became complicated and I had no more
time for it. And as I've gotten older, I'm self-conscious about my
aging body, which makes me more reluctant to put myself out there,
esp. with younger guys. I haven't figured out an easy away around
that.
I have a fairly large group of nudist friends across the age span. I don't have a perfect body, but few have! We are all beautiful in our own way and I respect and rejoice in diversity. Younger people make me feel young and older people make me realize that being yourself is a vital way to be healthy.
As a guy who's getting older I find it refreshing to hear from younger guys who are able to see beyond the "ageism" spectrum. I run into younger guys (and gals) at the various naked venues I visit, and I enjoy talking with folks no matter what their age. But it's really nice to hear the declaration from others that age is no issue. Thanks, All!
Thankfully the nudist community has both older and younger members and even better that the general consensus is that age is immaterial. As for me, I'm finding it difficult to find older nudists to hang with (LOL) but find any age more than acceptable.
There is a bit of an age difference in our relationship, and I (Mark) have always been attracted to older men...but when it comes to nudity we love the variety of ages! I too have always felt more comfortable around older people than myself...just more in common with them I guess... I've found a lot of us old souls in younger bodies out there!! Well, I'm 57, but I don't feel any different than when I was 35... but I'm probably ancient compared to some of you...who cares! lolEnjoying the naked weather every day here in Phoenix!
Oddly, there are some responders extolling the virtues of enjoying a wide range of ages among their nude friends who nevertheless in their profiles list some pretty strict age criteria for who they wish to associate with. Went to a naked party a few weeks ago with guys ranging 20s to 80, and had a great time meeting the whole age range. A lot of laughs. Celebrating diversity is worth the effort!
