For someone who is as new to blogging as they are to nudism this will be an interesting adventure. Why, well this is my first blog ever, and I have only been what I call an open nudist, for about six (6) months, that is very NEW.

As a single person wishing to find someone to explore all nudism has to offer, I went straight to the online date sites. What I found was regular date sites, where women thought you were some kind of pervert for wanting to disrobe in public, or a site where, all the women wanted to do was spread their legs and get BANGED. All tho both sites were full of women, neither of these attitudes is conductive of what nudism is about. But then I found a NUDIST date site and thought all my problems were over, just to find they had just begun. Since this site has only people of the right mind set, you would think this would be the end of the search, the problem is it consists of about 90% men, and 10% women under 35 years old.

I am a 62 year old, straight male, who would not have a problem escorting one of these young ladies to a nude beach or a nudist resort, but for reasons I understand, they don' t want to go with a fossil like me.

When I went to a local nudist resort (alone), my findings were that most of the members my age were married couples. So the question I asked myself was, Where Are All The Women. Again if you go back to the dating sites, you will see that most of the women are divorced or separated. So does this mean that nudist couples stay married, while all of the "regular" couples who follow society's way of thinking are getting divorced? If so this would be another BIG plus for nudism.

So what is nudism? From what I have found in my research so far is, it is a means of getting closer to nature, and becoming one with it. But I think, from my own experiences with nudism, it is the best stress release there is. It's crazy, but it seams that all the stress from the world stays with your clothes. I have thought long and hard about this, trying to figure this out, and this is the only thing I can come up with that makes any sense. But first understand, all tho I do believe there is a GOD, and the Bible is a history book of the those times, I am not a RELIGIOUS person.

Now this is what I found: In the book of Genisus you read about Adam and Eve. How Eve was talking to the Devil (the serpent), and was told that GOD, does not want you to eat from the tree of knowledge, because HE (GOD), does not want you to be that smart. (a simple version I know). Then it says that after they ate the fruit, they saw their nakedness and was ashamed, and covered themselves with fig leaves. The REAL question is, Why were they ashamed of their bodies, and what or who caused it?

Churches seem to let one think that GOD did this as a punishment, and back it up with the fact that GOD made them (Adam & Eve) more durable coverings, (what we now call clothes). So I ask you, do you really think GOD would want or expect anyone to be ashamed of his (GOD'S) creation. I don,t think so!

So lets look at the tree of KNOWLEDGE: This must be the Devils tree and that is why GOD told them (Adam & Eve) not to eat from this tree. That would mean that our being ashamed (modest) of our bodies was created by the Devil, from the Devil's tree of KNOWLEDGE. So clothes is actually a creation of the Devil's to hide or cover GOD'S creation.

This would explain why, when you remove your clothes, and put your body back into nature, as Adam & Eve were, and feel the breeze blow across your skin, you loose all the stress of the world. A world created by the Devil, from tempting Eve with the fruit from the tree of KNOWLEDGE.

If this makes any sense to you please comment. I am not saying that this is right, I am saying it makes more sense to me than anything else I have heard.
