Is it Awkward Seeing Your Friends Naked?

Ryan, owner/blogger of everydaynudist.com sitting on his bed in Spokane Washington.

Seeing your friends naked, why can it be so awkward or “taboo”?

It is because we are friends? Or is it because we are embarrassed to see or be seen naked due to our personal body image? Maybe because seeing our friends naked may be somewhat of a turn on, or we have secretly envisioned what they would look like naked and know we know? What happens if I get turned on masturbate to thought of them naked, does that make a bad person? Will the next time I see them, be awkward because you now know what they look like underneath all those layers of clothes?

These are all legitimate questions you have probably asked yourself, and I have no standard answer for them as each person is different.

Personal experiance

Speaking just from personal experience, I can tell you I have seen a metric shit ton of people, including a good number of friends naked. Sure in my younger years I would look at them in a sexual fantasy, and more than likely masturbate to the thought of them. However, the more I hung out in a social nudity environments, the more of a fan of the naked body I became. It turned from sexual thoughts, to admiring thoughts.

If anything, I found a much better connection, maybe because we eliminated barriers and, well, seen each other naked.

I won’t lie, when I first started it took a lot of courage to get naked in front of people, especially people I knew. But over time, it became much easier to the point that butterflies (well more excitement of hanging nude with others) comes and goes pretty quick. Probably not so much for Jessica as she is still new to the social nudity scene.

As a nudist I enjoy all body shapes, sizes, and colors. The human body is a beautiful piece of artwork and if you are wondering, of course I check it out and enjoy it.

I won’t lie I look at breasts, vaginas, butts, and dicks (to check out my post on my sexuality click here). I don’t judge, I enjoy the beauty of men and women; however, it can be odd for friends to be naked and not indulge in sexual fantasies or thoughts. Therefore, if this occurs don’t beat yourself up. Hell Jess and I will talk about people we see at nudist events when we leave (only good things believe me).  

Nudity isn’t porn

Nudity is not porn and it isn’t lewd (unless it done with sexual intentions such as showing erections, masturbation, or spread leg pics focusing on the vagina, etc.).I think this is where nudity gets a bad wrap from the general society as it is no well understood.

Over time I am sure there are people that will stumble across my site that know me personally. While I am sure it will be an initial shock of seeing me naked, my hope is that through this blog it I will help to normalize nudity.

To aide people in becoming comfortable in their own skin. My desire is to encourage people to give it a shot and go against everything they have ever been taught by their parents, school, church, or society.

If you are overweight, have stretch marks, don’t pack a six pack and large muscles, aren’t hung or have nice perky breasts, or know you will never be asked to pose for a cover shoot of men’s magazine or Cosmopolitan, that is okay. If you look that described above, that is okay. Bottom-line, now matter what you look like, I would love to hang with you nude any damn day of the week.

Here is a funny YouTube video that shows guy best friends seeing each other naked for the first time (without seeing them fully naked). These are best friends but you can see the nervousness and them checking each other out..it is a guy thing 🙂 See the video here.
