About my lifestyle

If you have see any of my content online then you know by now that I’m very open about my nudist lifestyle. I tend to take nude photos of myself in various locations along my journey. I take these photos so I can share the experience with my followers, and to show textiles that nudism isn’t sexual. By taking and sharing these pictures I believe I’m helping the nudist cause or at least I hope I am.

Do you think nudists sharing nude photos helps or hurts the cause? Comment below.

What happened?

When I visited Blue Lake in 2021 they has very lax camera rules. Essentially stated “no photographs”, however if u look online many people have taken and shared photos at this resort. I assumed the rule meant: “No photographing other people” as people take photos here all the time. My nudes there were taken before they started requesting that people cover their camera with painters tape.

In 2021 I took nude photos of just myself at the resort enjoying the experience. The photos were used online on X, Bluesky, and this website to promote not only nudism but the resort itself. I thought the photos were very tasteful and well done. The photos were non-sexual, simply just me enjoying my time nude at the resort.

In December of this year after the photos had been online for a number of years Blue Lake contacted me requesting me to remove the photo of me nude by the sign. At the time when I took this photo I didn’t think anything of it being hurtful to the resort. Blue Lake rep explained that it is illegal to take a photo by the sign due to it being by the highway and didn’t want it to bring bad light to the resort.

I removed the photo from the internet as she requested and I thought the problem was resolved. Fast forward to this year when I registered for their 5k run, I was asked to not return to the resort at this time. The Blue Lake rep stated they wanted to talk it over with the rest of the board and decide if I would be allowed to return. I ended up telling the rep to forget about it and that my friends and I would simply never return to the resort.

I never did hear from the resort if I was allowed to return or not. Over the years I brought new nudists to that resort with me and introduced them and they have also stated they won’t return to that resort anymore.

As of right now I simply plan to forget the place even exists. I already have plans to visit nudist beaches and explore other places in my nudist journey.

Most controversial

The most controversial topic I often hear about is people asking why I share nudes online. People simply can’t wrap their heads around why somebody would willingly expose themselves nude to the world.

I often get comments like:

• Why do you share nudes online?
• Why would you want people to see you nude?
• Aren’t you ashamed?
• Nobody wants to see you nude!
• Your privates are only for your partner to see.
• Your privates are meant to be private!
• What are you a pedophile?

While I do understand people’s concerns about why they do not want to be seen nude. I personally do not have any hang up at all with being viewed clothed or nude. I’m not ashamed of my body, I’m comfortable in my skin. I’m happy simply being nude regardless of who sees me.

Before you get it twisted… I DO NOT:

• Share nudes with minors nor do I intend for minors to view my photos.
• Flash others to get a rise out of them.
• Share nudes in DMS with total strangers.
• Have any sexual desire regarding nudity.

Some folks I know have tried to defame me by calling me a pedophile. These people think that I share nudity or I often times go nude for the wrong reasons. I do not believe that me simply being nude, or sharing about my nudist journey makes me a pedophile. My intentions behind sharing and promoting nudism are pure.

My intentions

I have many good intentions behind my posts, and my sharing of nudity online. Some of my intentions and reasons for sharing nudity online are as listed below.

• Educate others about the nudist lifestyle.
• Show others that being nude isn’t sexual.
• Highlight nudity as a normal state of being.
• Normalize nudity so others stop sexualizing it.

I believe we can’t normalize nudity if we don’t show nudity in normal day to day activities. Simply telling people that nudity isn’t sexual isn’t enough if we can’t back it up. I like backing up my proof that nudity can be normal by simply showing it in photos.

“To be naked is to be oneself.” — Ruth Barcan

Every photo I share to the general public is simply just me, unclothed, and entirely non-sexual. If you see my photos as sexual then you simply need to change your perspective on nudity and learn to be more open minded.

Please leave me a comment and tell me if you can relate.

Nudism is the practice of social & personal nudity as a natural lifestyle, focusing on body acceptance, freedom and connecting with nature. Some nudists practice nudism in private at home, while others practice nudism socially. Nudism has many core principles and philosophy associated with it.

Core Principles & Philosophy of nudism

• Body Positivity: Celebrates the human body in all its forms, viewing it as natural and worthy of respect, not shame.
• Health & Wellness: Believes that nudity offers physical and mental health benefits, fostering body image and self-acceptance.
• Freedom & Authenticity: Promotes personal freedom by removing clothing as a barrier, allowing for more honest interactions.
• Non-Sexual: Emphasizes that nudity in nudist settings is non-sexual and focuses on wholesome, non-voyeuristic appreciation. 

What does nudism mean to me?

I believe nudity in general is not inherently sexual, simply being nude is a natural form. The human body should be celebrated not be hidden behind restricting, uncomfortable clothing that doesn’t allow the skin to breathe properly. I see nudism as a way of promoting body positivity, a way of being your true natural self. Most importantly, I find being nude far more comfortable than clothing and allows me the freedom to be myself.

How does society view nudity?

Society forces us to believe that all nudity is sexual, even when one isn’t committing a sex act. Society is prudish at best when it comes to bare skin, or any form of nudity especially when private areas are exposed. Society views topless women as sexual as well but topless men are not sexual which I find very goofy and backwards thinking.

If you ask anybody who follows social norms they believe you should only be naked for two reasons: Having sex and taking a shower. I disagree with that entirely.

How did I get involved in nudism?

When I was a teenager I used to try to cover up my body to hide my “shame” from the world. I believed that I was ugly or unattractive and since I stutter that made my confidence sink even lower.

Even though I hated clothing, covering up didn’t fix anything or make me feel better about myself. I finally decided to do the entire opposite and started going nude at home in the privacy of my room at my parents house. I eventually started exploring going naked by roaming the house naked while everybody was asleep and even snuck outdoors entirely nude to feel the air on my entire body.

Once I felt the outdoor air brush against my naked body I knew that nudity was something I enjoyed. At first I didn’t know there were others like me who enjoyed being nude. I thought maybe I was an outcast, or that I was simply weird for not wanting to wear clothing.

It wasn’t until I researched Nudism that I knew I wasn’t an outcast, that there are others like me who enjoy simply living life without clothing.

After I moved out of my parents house I continued my lifestyle as a nudist. I practiced nudism in my own home with my partner at the time. Over the years I grew the desire to be naked more and in more places. I started looking for places outdoors that were private and not visited often by textiles where I would strip off my clothes just to feel the sun and breeze on my naked body.

I started sharing my nude photos online in the 90s to try to meet other nudists and find other like minded folks. A lot of folks frowned at me for sharing photos of myself entirely nude online and claimed I was just seeking attention. I persisted though and kept sharing and had many profiles where I had shared nudity. Some of these profiles are gone and have been replaced with new ones over the years.

At one point I met a few people from the Camelot Nudist Club in Iowa that has now since disbanded. I joined them at skinny dip events, house parties and more. My friend Rob joined me at the skinny dip event & we had an amazing time.

Finally in 2021 I visited my first nudist resort in Illinois called Blue Lake. This was my first experience at a nudist resort and I had an amazing time at the resort. I have been back to this resort every year since I first started going there and made some cool friends there.

Relationships

I’ve had a few long term relationships and all my girlfriends including my last one who was a nudist hates the fact that I openly share photos of myself nude online. I would say every one of my past partners has told me “There is no reason to share nudity online” or “You share nudity for attention”.

I could see how somebody would think I share photos of myself nude for attention online but that simply is not the case.

All of my relationships have ended the same way, with my partner leaving me because I choose nudism over their opinion of what nudism actually is. I accept that people have their own opinions but I don’t stop and worry about others opinions of me. The right people will accept me while the wrong people will turn me away.

Why do I share nudity?

I have many reasons why I share nudity of myself online, there is no one simple easy answer. When I am nude I simply feel whole like this is me, unfiltered, unashamed, and is simply the best version of myself. A nude photo of myself is simply just another photo of me, I don’t see my nude photos as a “nude photo”. These photos are just photos of me, in my natural form, uninhibited, not being sexual. These photos are “just me” in my normal form.

Conclusion

I don’t believe nudity is inherently sexual, nudity is natural, non-sexual state of being. I enjoy being nude for not only comfort, but because I feel my skin needs to breathe and not be restricted by clothing 24/7.

Reflecting on 2025

I wouldn’t say 2025 was an amazing year for me but it was definitely an interesting one. This last year isn’t one I wish to repeat in 2026 and that’s saying a lot.

Looking back at my year in 2025 I had a lot of ups and downs such as:

Positive things in 2025

• gained some friends.
• many nudist adventures.
• went on my first world naked bike ride entirely naked in St Louis.
• many new nude photos shared online.
• started to refocus on my Youtube channel.

Negative things in 2025

• End of a relationship.
• Lost a few friends.
• Lawsuits brought against me.

Looking forward to in 2026

In the year 2026 I have a lot of plans, some goals to achieve and many things to look forward to doing if I can financially afford to do everything I desire doing in the new year.

2026 Plans

Some of my plans include:

• Traveling to new nudist resorts.
• Visiting a clothing optional campground in Iowa
• Building my Youtube channel up to 1k subscribers.
• Traveling to new places to record for YouTube.
• Working towards paying off debt.

2026 Goals

• Reclaim my house from my ex-gf’s kids.
• Find new house mates.
• Start building a real savings.
• Focus on my health.
• Prioritize my To Do List.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. I hope you all have a Happy New Year in 2026.

The world naked bike ride is an international, clothing optional bike ride that is both a protest and a celebration. The ride highlights the vulnerability of cyclists, promotes body positivity and protests against oil dependency.

I participated naked!

I took part in the World Naked Bike Ride in St Louis, MO this year and I rode my bike the entire route over 10 miles entirely nude! I decided to not wear a single stitch of clothing because after all I’m a nudist and I’m not ashamed to be seen nude. This ride had hundreds if not thousands of onlookers taking photos, making videos, and more of all the riders. I likely appeared nude on a lot of people’s devices but that’s ok.

One fun aspect about the ride is the crowd in random places is busy handing out bottles of water, beer and more to the riders. It’s quite entertaining watching them hand out drinks to a bunch of naked riders exposing it all for the cause.

I had so much fun on this ride that I’m already planning to do more WNBR in 2026 and will do all of them naked of course. Below are some photos of me taken before and during the event. I wish I would of taken some while I was riding nude too but atlas I did not.

The first time I visited the resort they gave me a grand tour on a golf cart and showed me all the different areas of the resort. I felt a bit overdressed during the grand tour since everybody else was nude and I was still clothed at that time.

Once I was dropped back off at my truck I promptly stripped down and I decided to setup a tent and camp there for the weekend where I enjoyed visiting with other nudists. I enjoyed time in the hot tub, hung out around the fire and even took a dip in their pond. Blue Lake is a great place to meet new nudist friends which I did right away!

I continued visiting the resort more in 2021 and some of my friends even joined me at the resort with their camper. I moved onto staying in one of their three apartment style houses they had available before they built their new cabin which I haven’t seen yet in person.

My Review

Finally here is my breakdown review of Blue Lake Resort in Erie, Illinois.

If you visit Blue Lake Resort you will want to bring some of the following items:

• Towels
• Meals to eat while you are there especially for supper
• Sunscreen & Bug spray
• Personal items like soap, toothbrush, toothpaste, etc.

Would I go there again? Yes I plan to visit this resort again in 2024 after it warms up.

I know 2020 has been a trying time with Covid-19 and all the stuff going on in the world but hopefully things will start looking up in 2021 at some point though I don’t expect any huge improvements right out the gate. I just pray the country doesn’t go through lock downs again.

What are you looking forward to in 2021?

I built them in the safety and privacy of my garage.

This article is about why I believe nudity is NOT shameful and shouldn’t be viewed as such.

Some Facts regarding nudity

Below are some facts and also how society generally views nudity.

• Nudity is shameful or frowned upon.
• Nudity is seen as sexual, pornographic or lude.
• Society teaches us to wear clothing from the moment we are born.
• Society teaches us to be ashamed if we are seen nude.
• Public nudity is illegal in many countries especially in the USA.
• Many folks are closed minded when it comes to nudity & most consider nudity to be straight up lude.

How I feel about nudity

Like other nudists I also have my own many beliefs regarding nudity and what nudity is to me:

• Being nude is liberating and freeing.
• It’s just skin, being nude is nothing to be ashamed of.
  • I believe If more people saw nudity the way I do then the world would honestly be a better place.
• I don’t believe that nudity in itself is sexual and it certainly is not the same as porn nor are my photos pornographic in nature.
• The human body while nude is NOT lude.
  • Do you think your nude pet is lude?
  • Are wild animals lude because they are nude?
• Nudity is about being yourself.
  • It’s not about the brand of clothes you wear or how you look clothed or nude. It’s simply you.

So I ask all my nudist friends to continue BEING YOU and don’t let society bring you down or get away with rude comments regarding nudity or your nude body.

NO! I am NOT ashamed of myself for being nude or publishing my own nudes on the internet because it’s not about body shame, it’s not porn, it’s just me being well, ME in the natural skin I was born in.

If you have a problem with me being nude then simply look the other way and move on.
