Quotes From Women
I closed my eyes, and thought, and thought some more. The idea of taking off my clothes in front of men, how could a nice girl do that? But there were other women there, and they took their clothes off, and they had no problem with letting men see them.
The ocean looked more and more inviting. The guilt weighed on me. Even if I stayed clothed, just being in such a place and seeing such sights was wrong. For almost an hour, I was torn. I went back and forth and finally, the ocean won. If it was a sin to be here anyway, it couldn't be any worse of a sin to participate. If these people saw me naked, they wouldn't be seeing anything they hadn't seen before.
Quickly, before I could think again and change my mind, I stripped. I took everything off, and ran into the ocean. As the waves washed over me, it washed the guilt away. I felt wonderful. I was skinny dipping in public, in mixed company, and enjoying it thoroughly. I came out of the ocean, and the feeling of not wearing a wet sandy bathing suit felt terrific.

I was basically a home nudist. I enjoyed this way of living for a number of years. One day I decided that I wanted to be among other nudists who also enjoyed this way of living. So I decided to go to a nude beach. This would be my first time nude in public.
I didn't know what to expect. At the time I was living in NJ so I went to Gunnison Beach in Sandy Hook. I went during the week hoping that it would not be as crowded as on a weekend and it wasn't. It was still early morning. There were few people on the beach. I found a spot away from anyone but not far from the water.
At first I was very reluctant to get undressed. It was a hot day and I had to get comfortable. So I got undressed. By this time the beach was getting fairly crowded. This meant that I had to walk past a number of people to get to the water. So I started walking. To my surprise, the fact that I was nude did not come to mind. It felt so natural. The swim in the ocean was unbelievable.
There is nothing like an ocean breeze and the cool water on one's body. Later I took a nice walk on the beach. It was great. I went back a number of times.

At the college I teach, there is a place way back in the woods where you can go skinny dipping at night, but there is absolutely no one there during the day. Well, some friends and I went back there after class one day to do some sunning. We had been there a little while when one of my friends suggested that we go swimming. This was ok with everyone because it was very hot, so we got up and headed toward the water when one of the girls started to strip.
She explained that she refused to wear a bathing suit when it was not necessary and that we should join her. After some serious thinking I removed my bathing suit and went into the water. We swam for a while and I have never felt better, so when we got out a streak of daring hit me and I thought, "What the hell, I'll just stay this way and get rid of these tan lines." The others followed suit, and we were naked there beside that creek for about 6 hours that day.
We all enjoyed this so much we have continued these day trips to the creek, and we decided to go to a nudist resort to see if we would like it there as much as we do in the woods. We have not been yet but a trip report will be coming.

I love being nude, especially outdoors. Years ago, and to this day, I did not get dressed immediately after my shower. If it was summer and fan was blowing it felt even better to ‘air dry’. I have always been comfortable being nude around the house, mostly upstairs in the bedroom areas. I would clean the house in my underwear. Many times, I experienced and loved skinny dipping.
So, when my brother–in–law ‘confessed’ to me that he and my sister–in–law were nudists. My first reaction was laughter; my second reaction was ‘I have got to try this!’ My brother–in–law showed me some web sites and introduced me to the philosophy of nudism.
I talked to my husband, who thought I was nuts, but he agreed to try it. Every day after that, I was on the internet reading message boards, and woman’s first time experiences. I wanted to go with all my being, but I was nervous at the same time. But, after reading so many first time experiences all saying the same thing, I began to relax about attending a nudist event.
My first experience was at a naturist club. I immediately felt comfortable. It’s like the old saying ‘When in Rome, do as the Romans.’ Everyone was nude and comfortable, so it was not hard to join in. We brought our snacks to share, our towel and some beer to drink. The people were friendly; the water felt good without a suit on and the night ended all too quickly.
