Wearing Clothes Sucks

[warrprayer]

or, rather, being forced to wear them under penalty of law. When did it happen, back in the cave days when we wore animal hides to survive the cold, did some Neanderthal thug decide our natural bodies were taboo? Was it because, after the long winter when the stinky skins could finally be discarded to feel the fresh breeze and warm sun on our bodies, that Ogg popped a stiffy when he saw Oglas body after it being hidden for so long?
Furthermore, there is always great outcry when a 'nude photo is circulated". It is always about a woman, nude photos of men circulating generally are not news unless it is a politician. In a sane, mature society, a nude photo of anyone would bring a reaction of "so fucking what". The emotions around this stem solely from the propertization of our bodies.
And, as we have come further, it has become more evil. We are taught to be ashamed not only of our bodies, but of our sexuality. Why? So you feel so afraid of your own natural being and so unfulfilled that they CAN USE YOUR UNEXPLAINABLE FEELINGS OF EMPTINESS TO SELL YOU SHIT!
It saddens me that having grown up in America I shall die without having experienced living in a sane, mature society that works together for the good of all.

1. It is sad. I would like to offer you comfort that it'll change for the better. But I cannot!

[img][/img] Lots of folks suck!
Having said that ... my backyard is no longer nude friendly.

[warrprayer]

2. I just added the song

"Ape Man" to the post. Thanks for understanding reply! And I agree with you, most of western civilization is irrepairably nuts.

[In_The_Wind]

6. Great song. That nails it.

OT: Will be off in real life from late Friday until early next week. I'll pop in as I have time.
I have help getting my trike ready to ride. My pilot car needs the wiring for the strobe tweaked.
Digging up and transplanting old stuff. Who knows what else.

3. you are very brave

34 hits and no one wants to touch this with a 10 foot pole

[In_The_Wind]

4. I go where the meek rarely follow.

You already knew that.

How do you like my hat? [img][/img]
Cause ... it's off to you.

[warrprayer]

5. you can leave your hat on

10. got my own world to live through

[In_The_Wind]

49. Nor was I ~ 8 Miles High plus one White Rabbit ........

[OriginalGeek]

15. Well heck - I can't compete with a 10 foot pole

but I was just yesterday looking at the HGTV network web-site and reading an article about outdoor showers.

I think it would be pretty nifty to have an outdoor shower open to the sky. So nifty that I am planning to build one regardless of how well I can compete with a 10 footer.

I agree with your general premise too - clothes suck and I wear them as little as possible.

[warrprayer]

19. that sounds like a truly awesome project!

unfortunately in our twisted society to enjoy freedom one must own land....

[OriginalGeek]

21. yeah that sucks too

gotta hide everything away from everybody. Or move to a nudist resort and I think those are expensive to live in full time.

This looks a little like heaven to me:


although they had some even fancier ones on the site.

I live in Florida so it's something I can use almost year round. This one was cool too:

[warrprayer]

22. WOW

that is truly beautiful! Thanks for posting the great pics!

[Gidney N Cloyd]

8. If it weren't for pockets, I wouldn't touch the stuff.

[warrprayer]

12. gotta keep

all of our "stuff" somewhere!

[Sekhmets Daughter]

9. It's another control issue...

nothing more, nothing less. Ogg didn't want anyone else popping a stiffy upon seeing Oglas body. Then Oglas became as territorial....

From that shame grew...and has been used very effectively...by both genders...to keep their partners covered. Your ass is too big, your breasts too small, your penis is too small, your shoulders too narrow. The rest is just masquerade.

Ever wonder why we're all so hung up on fidelity? Does the world really stop spinning on its axis because someone samples something new every once-in-awhile? More of the same...control.

[warrprayer]

11. my dog, somebody gets it!!!!

You know exactly what I mean and expressed it perfectly. Thank you.

[Sekhmets Daughter]

13. You're welcome!

I've been enjoying your threads immensely.

[warrprayer]

14. awww shucks!

[Sekhmets Daughter]

16. OMG! Alfalfa....

Lord I miss the Little Rascals. That was not a gratuitous compliment... I don't put myself out there....I admire those who do.

[warrprayer]

18. I miss

the Rascals too!

[In_The_Wind]

17. Not for the people who are able to think instead of follow.

Pop a stiffy indeed!

[warrprayer]

23. We are leaving

... they don't need us

[In_The_Wind]

25. We have defiled my home too much.

[IMG][/IMG]
I won't be back again.

[Sekhmets Daughter]

29. Even thinkers can become

repressed under the weight of a total societal taboo. It's why we are so twisted as a species.

[In_The_Wind]

30. There is a place down in Delaware that does a Beltane weekend.

I haven't been there in years.
I would love to go again with someone special.

[Sekhmets Daughter]

31. Oh wow...

Hope you get your wish!

[In_The_Wind]

32. Last time I was there it was with a couple.

That Was Tons Of Fun!

It's a wild weekend of sacred sexuality.
The outfits at the dances are unique.

[lovemydog]

20. So much shame and guilt and competition

gets attached to bodies. Lots of self-loathing as well. And projection. All sorts of neurotic and plain crazy stuff. Makes me wanna puke. Great post. Love that Kinks song too.

24. Young people think they'll never age

I'm 64 and at my age I'm doing everyone a favor by wearing clothes. Take my word for it.

Do you really want to see a bunch of naked Boomers? Really?

[In_The_Wind]

26. I'm 64. I love going naked, feeling the warmth of the sun on my skin.

I go where age does not matter.

[lunatica]

27. So do I, but it's in private

I think young people think everyone is going to look great without clothes. It simply doesn't work that way.

As for myself, I'm an artist and do figure drawing so I'm quite used to seeing all physical types naked. You rarely get sexy models, which I don't find very interesting anyway. I like faces and bodies that look lived in. I love aging faces too.

[In_The_Wind]

28. Sigh. Bernie Madoff stole my privacy with his ponzie.

The best I can enjoy now is a public nude beach.
So either I forget about everyone else or I'm stuck in my clothes.
That's not gonna happen.

[CheapShotArtist]

33. I'll tell you one thing--

I'd rather wear clothes than go out and see a bunch of naked dudes' d*cks and have all the seats smelling like somebody's ass everywhere I go.

[warrprayer]

37. One BIG question!!!

... WHY are you sniffing seats??!?




Seems a bit OCD if you ask me - but, to each their own.

Also, thank you for sharing your mature and intelligent insights. A lesser poster might have just popped off with the first knee-jerk reactionary bullshit that came into his head. Thanks for not being that guy.

Lastly, you might want to talk to a therapist about that phallophobia. No need to live in fear!

[CheapShotArtist]

52. OK, so move somewhere

that nudity is cool, then. There are nudist colonies. Most Americans are perfectly fine with not having naked people walking around in public. There is a reason why indecent exposure is illegal. Not only is it unsanitary, but also unhealthy.

[In_The_Wind]

53. "Not only is it unsanitary, but also unhealthy."

[warrprayer]

56. why should I have to move?

[In_The_Wind]

59. Cool! It's way off. You have plenty of time.

One way or another, I'll buy you a drink, coffee, hot cocoa.

34. Has Antonin SCALIA heard about this HIDDEN Constitutional RIGHT?!1 n/t

[warrprayer]

36. The military has issues with nudity?!??

Damn! Who'da thunk it?
I take it from your handle that you are active/ex military. Thank you for your service and your post!

"Colonel, why do I have to wear this"?

* NEVER bother Col. Kane with crybaby lifer bullshit while he is having flashback/nightmare of holding conversation with severed VC head which he is holding in his hands. Stacy Keach was a real USMC officer.

35. Spreading your e.coli sucks even more.

At least for the rest of us.

[warrprayer]

38. Words fail me

[In_The_Wind]

46. !!!

[In_The_Wind]

40. Then you should not spread your e.coli here!

Obviously you are too full of it! [img][/img]

[warrprayer]

43. Hello again!

[In_The_Wind]

... people are not compared to ridiculous standards of body types that only ken and barbie can achieve. In a sane and mature society, different body types are accepted and valued, just as we accept and value different eye, hair and skin color. In a sane and mature society, people are not brainwashed by the media into fearing the onset of the natural aging process to the point where they spend billions (selling you shit again by making you hate yourself) making asses out of themselves purchasing crap to hide the effects of time, and engaging in self mutilation (plastic surgery) for the same reason.

[In_The_Wind]

45. I agree! ^^^ I will age gracefully with no surgical augmentation.

[warrprayer]

47. time is up -

back tomorrow!!!

[warrprayer]

48. snuck in the back door!!!

54. Well it does keep the death rate down!

Just think of the number of additional deaths that would occur from people laughing themselves to death!

[In_The_Wind]

55. Also think about this .........

No place to hide a weapon.

60. My 6-year old son is fascinated by and proud of...

his morning erections. We treat it like it no big deal, but even still, he shouldn't talk about it with anyone other than his mother or me. I'm deathly afraid of what will happen when he brings it up at school. Crossing my fingers.

[LancetChick]

61. I don't accept any naked human as he or she is.

I find naked humans to be ugly and offensive, and I really appreciate people who cover up. Animals, on the other hand, are beautiful, for the most part. But then they have fur coats. Naked humans remind me of those hairless cats, only fatter and more bulbous. Yuck.

(Yes, I'm terrible in bed).

[warrprayer]

62. you win the thread

surely you can't be serious

WELCOME TO D.U.!!!

COME AS YOU ARE

63. then don't wear any. problem solved.
