Is Nudism Kinky?

Louise, any fundamentalist religion is a kink all by itself.

I don't think of nudity as a kink. Now public flashing in inappropriate places, well that is a king as well as illegal.

Jds4med, I agree with you regarding fundamentalist religions. It took me a few years to get over my early training to accept that women can and should enjoy sex and that things like nudity or wearing tiny bikinis on clothed beaches were not a sin. Now I know that it is not kinky at all. The other aspect is that fundamentalist steer their children to associate with fundamentalist peers. Thus, I didn't even realize that oral sex was a normal activity until I left home.

I prefer to classify it as a pathology of the mind. By far the most prevalent pathology on Earth.

I don't consider it "kinky", but it decidely is against the mores of many societies on Earth.

I don't count it as "kinky" because there is not necessity of sexual connotations - in the sense that one may find it more comfortable to live in the nude. We used to do that a lot at home with my wife before we had children - not bother to dress.

Nudism is only kinky to those who are not nudists or naturalists.

Being naked isn't kinky ... where u r naked ... or when u r naked ... that would be some part of a kinky 'event' ... but just being naked ... or nude ... it isn't kinky.

I don't consider it to be kinky at all and agree with some of the other posts that there is a difference between nudity and sexuality. It can be a very enjoyable and pleasant experience in a non-sexual way and the beaches I've visited have been very non-sexual and family friendly. I suppose that what confuses the issue is that in most societies / cultures, nudity is not seen as the norm and for people who have never experienced public nudity the reality is quite different to what they might like to imagine.

I don't think nudism is kinky - it's not something I have tried, yet, but I'd love to be with others who are nude and just accepting each other for who we really are. It's something I want to try - but I am not thinking of it in a kinky or sexual way.

Lora you definitely need to give it a go and to my mind there's nothing like nude swimming or just the freedom associated with walking around nude and in a natural state. Liberating is probably the word I'm looking for and once you've tried it I reckon you'll want to continue. The big problem from my point of view in the UK is the weather!

Social nudity is also the ultimate equalizer. First, you park in the midst of cars ranging from expensive to barely running. When you get to be naked, you don't know who drove the expensive Audi or the POS Chevy. Next, you quickly realize that you're not the -est anything. You're not the thinnest or the fattest. You're not the biggest or smallest.... You just begin to enjoy who you are, not worrying about how others see you or how you see them.

It's not kinky, it's the ultimate natural way. Clothes are kinky.

Nudism isn't necessarily kinky but can be part of something kinky.

I'm into CMNM sometimes sexual but not always.

Being naked is fun in these situations.

Nudism is not kinky. That said, the mind is powerful and the possibility of turning someone on does not mean that you need to be naked. Take the effect of sexy lingerie as a good example.

But getting back to nudity, one of the nicest vacations we ever had was at a clothing optional beach in the Caribbean. It was novel for maybe an hour or two and then just quite relaxing and liberating. We would do it again in a minute, but not sure we want to (pardon the pun) expose our kids to that just yet. There might come a time however.

I see it as being not kinky and also kinky. When just out at a river, or a nude beach, or in nature, or in the privacy of your own property, not kinky. But, you have to look at the whole equation. Who is involved, what is taking place, when is it happening, where is it happening, how does everyone feel about the nudity, why are people nude, etc.... You can be kinky and nude in certain places and at certain times, and it can be okay, or not okay. If you and a friend want to run around a deserted beach or campground wearing butt plugs, and nobody is bothered, or nobody is there to be disturbed-great! On the other hand, I've been at some nice, natural hot springs resorts and half or more of the people in the pools at night are getting each other off (and not being all that sly about it). There are rules posted against that, but nobody enforces it at night time. I say: "Get a room or a tent", I don't pay big money and drive hours just to soak in a crowd of stranger's semen and mucus. So, I guess the answer is that you have to look at the big picture to answer this question.

Nudism is natural, is turns kinky when you put a corset on, or nylons with garters. . Or just heels...

Nudism isn't kinky unless there is a feather involved.

You know, all of what members here say about nudism being natural is undoubtedly true.

But still, many nude venues have rules about not admitting single males, many are couples only. So there must be some kind of past experience that dictates these rules to be useful or necessary. That there are in effect people who use nude venues as places for activities other than going about normal activities in the nude.

Agracier: This rule about no single males is, as far as I understand, common in many activities related to sex, and is meant to exclude those who stare at women or otherwise bother them, for instance by trying pickups.

Nudism is not kinky. Our society has made it kinky and even morally dirty to be nude. However in private one can dress as one pleases and in our household we rarely wear clothing on hot summer days. It is just natural and there is no arousal either from seeing the opposite gender in her/his birthday suit

I don't think so, but the first time I was in france we went swimming and it was a communal changing rooms i lot of naked women it did turn me on but i was only about 12

There are lots of naturist holiday parks/areas here in the UK and it isn't viewed as being kinky. People do as they please, as in all walks of life. I admire those that are brave enough to lead such a lifestyle whether at home or outdoors.

Nudism or naturism as practiced in resorts found in many countries is FAR from being kinky. I feel that it's living life as it was meant to be, free of encumbering clothing, free to feel the sun and air on the body, free to swim without the clinging swim suit, and much more.

What I do think is kinky however is going to a public nude beach, only to be confronted by gaggles of male gawkers. Correction, that isn't even kinky, it's downright rude.

I enjoy being nude when and where ever possible. It's just a shame that more safe public sites aren't available for nude swimming and sunbathing!

I don't think nudism is kinky, but I do think for some (like me) it is titillating. I enjoy nudism when I'm around many others, but find it rather boring when there are very few other people. This is why I seek out nudist crowds, such as pools at nudist resorts and crowded nudist beaches. I like to look at other people and like other people to look at me. Is that kinky? Maybe, but I don't walk around with an erection or otherwise behave in a provocative manner. Does anyone else feel this way?

Connie davis: I reckon that at many naturist places, it's prohibited to be clothed. So at least the male gawkers would have to show everything as well... which probably cuts on the gawking.

Exactly the same for me

Nudism itself is not kinky. If you let a girl direct you where to go by grabbing hold of your genitalia & start walking as you're being led around, that could be kinky You get the idea.

No is the answer to this question .Nudism in its self is not kinky as its about being comfortable in your own skin .I visit nude beaches every summer and you don't see men wandering about with hardons its very rare to see men aroused . I see a lot of kids with families naked on the beach as I took mine when they were younger .I suppose you do get the odd gawker but it goes no further as they wouldn't be tolerated and would quicly find themselves chased off the beach by the genuine nudists .The beach I went to for many years I used to go to there was a guy who had 2 alsations with him and wierdos etc were chased off the beach by his 2 dogs and I never saw any trouble down there because people knew why he was there .

I've been a nudist most of my life. Most of the nudists preserved located on the west cost of usa are in california,oregon and my home state of washingron. Some are clothing optional ,but some require total nudity upon entering the nude preserve. Most of the nude preserve are about body acceptance. Most of the nudist at these preserves are mostly middle age and not the barbie type.

When you see a good looking and well dress person you notice and look. The same goes for a nude person. For first timer ladies,it may take afew minutes to accept being nude in public,but the feeling is soon forgoten and the freedom of it is enjoyed.

As previously mentioned by other members, i personally have never seen a man with an errection in those nude preserves.

I have taken many ladies to nude preserves and in every case ,these ladies were glad to have been afforded the experience of being nude in public and have always asked to repeat the experience many times.

Like all questions like this , it is relative to what is going on. I have been nude with others simply for relaxation , and at other times , as a prelude to sexual adventure

I am very relaxed being nude. it's sexy and can be kinky
