I think it might have to do with boredom, lack of excitement in life. This saddened me the most because I don’t really understand this. What really made me the most disturbed however, was learning how many of the nudists AT THIS CAMP swing- as in sharing sexual partners, switching back and forth- 50-60-70 year olds, which amazed me. I suppose I would become desensitized over time but that is not a goal of mine. I could not STOP looking at them as I was amazed and interested. I was told that they do not look at one another. I STILL did not want to look at so many of them at one time. It did not seem to be about health to me at all- we don’t need to have all our clothing off in order to absorb Vitamin D.īut IF they really mostly enjoyed nudist camps because they simply hated wearing clothing, I can get that.
So this fact bothered me- it felt like the nudist camp gave them all permission to not care about their bodies. They do not bike ride or hike or do any other kind of physical activity because if they enjoyed it, they would be doing it on weekends instead of lounging by a pool nude. A handful of men play volleyball but only one or two women. Every weekend, they drive to the nudist camp to hang out on chaise lounges. I started to think that everyone at the nudist camp was content to stay the way they are and accepted the way they are because everyone else there looked equally as bad. It is all connected and I think we are more able to do the work we were meant to do much better if we are healthy and fit.
If your body works well, your mind will work well and your mental image of yourself will be more positive. I believe when you are healthy and fit, your body has less aches and pains, it performs better, enabling you to move through life and function more proficiently. I personally believe in fitness, not because it is aesthetically more pleasing to look at but because I think it is the way to live, to strive to live. ASTHETICALLY I just prefer that visual- fitness. It doesn’t matter to me if it is an older fit body or even an old fit body. I personally think a body that has good muscle tone is the most beautiful. I do believe the human form is beautiful and human beings are beautiful but I found it disturbing to view so many bad-looking bodies. I am not talking sagging butts etc from age. I was surprised to see so many out of shape and chubby people at the nudist camp- nearly everyone. So I am not JUDGING anyone thinking I am a babe and they are not. That is for my sake as well as for everyone else’s. I am happy that the worst part of me can always stay covered. I think I have good parts and the bad part (my belly- from multiple births) is really best left covered up. I do not think I am a treat to look at personally. After a few hours, I was thrilled to put my clothing back on and felt much more comfortable clothed, even walking through the pool area of naked people. It was too much.īut I did not personally enjoy being naked at the camp. So someone said, “Oh, so you have a difficult time with everyone ELSE being naked? “ Yes I suppose I did. I don’t dwell on the fact that I am clothed and they are not. They certainly look at me, but they are looking at the shadow the light makes on my skin, the way my hip curves, the shape of my eye. I look out onto completely clothed people and I observe them. I am the only one nude on the modeling stand.

There is a huge difference between taking off my clothing and sitting on the modeling stand (enables artists to learn how to draw the human form) and hanging out with a shit ton of naked people. Many of my friends were surprised to learn that I, who has been a life drawing model for 25 years and recently returned to the job after a 20 year hiatus, had a challenging time. I needed to talk about it and process it verbally to try to understand what I was feeling.
I felt emotionally disturbed after I left the nudist camp, for about two days.
