22.0. "That redness is NOT sunburn..." by CADSE::WONG (Where's the party?) Tue Feb 09 1988 14:08

    In keeping with the spirit that naturism is fun and enjoyable,
    I think it would be nice for people to describe some funny and/or
    embarassing things that happened to them while they or someone else
    were in the nude.

22.1Look like a flasher when the JWs arriveSSDEVO::YOUNGERCalm down, it's only 1's and 0'sTue Feb 09 1988 14:5810
    Once while being nude around the house alone, the doorbell rang. Since
    I was picking up the house, my clothes were not in easy reach, so I
    went to the coat rack and grabbed the nearest coat.  Wouldn't you know
    - I grabbed a raincoat.  No skirt, no slacks, no socks, no shoes.  It
    was pretty obvious that the raincoat was all I had on. The people at
    the door turned out to be from some religious group.  It was very
    embarrassing for them to be attempting to convert someone who looked
    like a flasher. Needless to say, they didn't stay very long.

22.2For what magazine ?VOLGA::MACKAYTue Feb 09 1988 15:453
    There was a female professional photographer, also nude, that wanted
    to take my picture in a mudbath at Martha's Vineyard. The funny part was
    that my wife didn't object.
22.3Could never happen to me, right?AURA::WONGLet's cut them off at the pass...Tue Feb 09 1988 16:0821
    Imagine this...
    
    You're going to a naturist resort for the first time...you're very
    nervous...
    This will be the first time that you're going to be nude socially
    with people you've never met before...even more nervous...
    You drive up to the front office to register...
    The person who welcomes you in is nude...(no problem)
    You are told that if you stay during the visit, you must be
    nude...(that's what I'm there for...)
    You go and park your car...while people nearby are playing tennis
    in the nude...
    You undress, put everything in the car, and then head for the
    restrooms...
    
    You come back to the car...
    
    ...and the car is locked...with everything inside the car...
    
    
    Imagine that...
22.4Days gone bySUCCES::BURTONTue Feb 09 1988 16:3647
    
    
    When I was 15-16 myself and the gang used to sneek into a secluded
    area of a resevoir and fish, swim, pick blueberries usually totally
    nude. Most of us had grown up with each other so the woman/girls
    in our gang would also be nude. 
    One day, about 9 of us were lounging around our favorite island
    (was a short wade from shore) when we heard dogs barking. Seems
    this old woman that owned a kennel on property adjouning the reservoir
    was in the habit of running these dogs down to the lake for drink
    and exercise. Being all tresspassers and nude, we all ducked for
    the nearest blueberry bush. It was a large bush but it's ability
    to hide us all was limited. Anyway, we all huddled together for
    over an hour while this woman stripped down and skinny dipped
    with her dogs. Of course atr this point we were in no more danger
    of getting trouble for trespassing than she was, but we were young
    and so sure we'd get in trouble if she were to see us.
    After an hour she got out of the water and got dressed and left.
    We waited for the sounds of dogs to get further away then we all
    came out from hiding. We got dressed (very quietly) and proceeded
    up the path. When we had gottebn to the end of the path there was
    the old woman, just sitting on the stone wall at the property line.
    She smiled at us and told us we looked pretty stupid all huddled
    under that bush for the better part of an hour.
    To make an already long story just a little bit shorter, we talked
    with this woman and found out she and her brothers used to sneek
    in the exact same way and swim, fish and enjoy all the activities
    we were doing just a few moments ago. She also told us she had known
    that we were doing it as well and had no intentions of turning us
    in. That is, so long as we took our trash with us and never messed
    up the place. 
    For the next two years she would come down to sun bath with us and
    swim and she also told us many stories of herself and her brothers
    escapades on the island when they were all young.
    I haven't been back there for years and don't even know if this
    woman is still alive. I do remember the innocent fun we all had
    over those three summers. (two of which with older company)
    It was also my first experiance with an older person with
    no hang-up nudity. She was in her sixties and had such a natural
    attitude about it. (She also taughht us how to catch fish with our
    hands) 
    
    Perhaps not the funniest experiance but one of my favorite memories.

22.5Not an embarrassing moment for me, but funnyDSSDEV::JACKMarty JackTue Feb 09 1988 17:165
    I was standing on the beach at Club Orient when a young couple,
    both wearing perfectly pressed T-shirts with the IBM logo and perfectly
    pressed IBM-blue nylon shorts showed up and walked the entire length
    of the beach and back.  It was all I could do not to yell "Hey, why
    not come to Digital -- no dress code!".
22.6Not so isolatedCSSAUS::BELLPeter L. BellWed Feb 10 1988 08:328
    I used to go swimming nude in a small mountain lake (the lake was small
    not the mountain), and was happily doing so one day, when I noticed a
    group of people on the opposite shore. I slipped out of the water and
    dressed before wandering over to see what was happening. To my horror I
    found that it was a film crew, to my relief they had not been
    interested in filming me.

22.7Lots of nudes in my life.WRO8A::GUEST_TMPHOME, in spite of my ego!Fri Feb 12 1988 22:5018
         Being in California makes it easier to go to nude things, I
    think, based on what I've seen people printing in here.  Any beach
    that isn't commercial is likely to have naked people on it.
    So, maybe it isn't so unlikely here.
         Anyway, a few years ago I went to a pond about two miles from
    where I live.  It was built originally to water cattle (by closing
    off a ravine with a berm.)  Well, it so happened that I was the
    only one there, and, being a hot day, I undressed to take in the
    rays.  After a short while, I heard some voices.  I looked around
    to see a whole troop of girlscouts (about a dozen or so) coming
    my way.  Well, I quickly decided that I should act natural, so
    I did.  What I found interesting was that as each girl passed within
    three feet of my toes, not one of them looked "directly" at me.
    And I didn't hear too much snickering, either.  
         Isn't life fun?

22.8Wrong showerRDGCSS::HUMBYSir Stephen DangerousMon Feb 22 1988 14:5817
    
     Reading the nude_rec item on the difference between male and
     female shower blocks reminded me of a funny story. 
    
     Every sunday a gang of us go to the nude swim at the local sports
     centre. As a rule we all use the female changing rooms as the are
     better than the mens. A few months ago the girls of our group
     decided to go midweek to the regular (textile) swim. After the swim they
     take a shower not thinking it strange there is a naked man already
     in there. The fun started when the gentleman looked up and realised
     he had wandered into the wrong shower, and worst 3 naked women had
     joined him and were behaving as if nothing was wrong!
    
     I should add the man in question was quite inocent its is easy
    to wander between the showers. Why this should be? would need to
    ask the architect.
      
22.9AKOV04::WILLIAMSMon Mar 14 1988 18:3711
    	About 10 years ago my wife (she is NOT a nudist) and I were
    out with our best friends, they, like me, are nudists.  After a
    lovely dinner we decided to go swimming in the Ipswich River.  Libby,
    my wife, would not join us since bathing suits were not available.
    After a 45 minute swim, the three of us dried off, got dressed and
    left for home with Libby.  The evening air was cool but enjoyable.
    
    	Two days later Libby was laid up with a cold!  Who said clothes
    are healthy?

22.10Stupid in SnowdoniaBLURB::YOUNGThu Dec 22 1988 19:3323
    I was hiking in Snowdonia on one of the few days of sunshine that
    area has seen since creation (this was in 1976).  Accompanying me
    was a soprano who was verging on coloratura, and who preferred hiking
    topless.  She was given to singing that paradigm of bad phrasing
    from Handel's Messiah as we perambulated through the hills, "We
    like sheep/We like sheep/We like sheep have gone astray."
    
    We were going up Snowden from the Capel Curig (sp?) side when we
    came upon a tarn.  We shucked our clothes and dove in.  When the
    Girl Guides arrived and had lunch on the other side we were not
    disturbed, but sunned ourselves dry behind a few rocks so as not
    to offend their sensibilites.  We had hoped to avoid them when we
    continued our ascent, but a screed meant we had to pass them by.
    
    All but one green eyed girl studied their footwear carefully. 
    The lass with green eyes gave me a quick once over to categorize
    the male, then scrutinized the soprano with care.  We were more
    amused than embarassed until we reached the summit, when, after
    admiring the view of the sea to the north, we discovered the coin
    operated telescopes on the balcony of the station at the summit
    were all pointed directly at the tarn where we had been swimming
    and sunning.

    RE: .10
    
    Interesting...
    
    At the Mountain Air Ranch in Littleton, Colorado, there is one peak
    that is higher than the naturist grounds there.  On top of the house
    is a very nice house.  I was told that there is a telescope trained
    on the pool area of the MAR grounds; the occupants were always looking
    for an orgy or something.  They gave up after a while because all
    the MAR visitors just sat around and worked on thier tans.
    Boring, I guess...:-)
22.12busted by the clergyCSC32::KRUEGERIn my own Private IdahoThu Feb 15 1990 18:2813
    My friends and I usually bathe at St. Francis beach, so named for the 
    Catholic children's resort at the beach.  Well, this particular weekend
    followed a storm that had pretty much covered the markers for the
    resort.  Needless to say, we were on church property.  
    
    Well, we were laying there, naked to God and everyone, when a priest
    came up to us and asked us to move.  What made it strange for me is
    that I had fallen asleep and woke up to see a priest standing over me
    there in the buff.
    
    Oh well.  It keeps you humble.
