Andy if I was that rookie guy I would have second guessed the situation myself ! :D :D :D
We had dinner with this couple tonight. We were catching up about how much time we'd been spending at home again and Di commented on how less she does laundry since last year. He made a comment about me being naked all the time at work and probably are this whole time. We bantered back and forth and we were all laughing. During our banter, he did say that it wasn't that big a shock. He'd been told by others that some guy at FS 43 was always naked. After we met that morning, he figured it was me! hahaha
Andy it is not Vegas odds since you drive naked you sleep that way too. :D
Got to work that way, sometimes, after I became a Captain! It was usually on weekend or holidays. I had my own dorm with a satellite office. I rarely needed to go downstairs to the main office. Only time I slip on some clothes was for emergency responses and to eat meals... and our visit to Starbucks. Before I retired, I did take the reserve fire engine out for a naked drive! I had my work jacket on and unzipped and my turnout boots close by to slip on if I needed. I had a nice 10 min drive around the town and then back into the back of the firehouse. I backed the rig into it's stall and got out naked. One of my firefighters saw me get out and laughed and said, "now you've done everything!" Not quite but close! hahaha
I didn't feel embarrassed in my first socially nude event. But I did have an embarrassing thing happen.
I had gotten home from a long trip, feeling grimey, so I walked in the door and stripped in anticipation of a shower. I decided to get on Truenudists first. So, I was sitting nude in my office, chatting with a couple of friends.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door. My neighbor lady was there. She knew I was home and she tried calling me first but I didn't answer, but she needed help so she came over. Here was the issue, the door she knocked on was a full glass door and she was 4 feet from me. What could I do, I had to answer the door. I apologized and she said it was no problem. However, her eyes never left the floor. I asked her to wait while I grabbed some clothes, which she did. She told me what help she needed, which I provided, and I apologized again. Interestingly she said it was o.k. as she felt if you've seen one, you've seen them all. I guess that tells me she did see my all. Anyway, I felt embarrassed because she appeared to be embarrassed. Frankly, I am surprised she hasn't seen me naked before this happened. Maybe she has and that's why it wasn't a big deal to her. I have a few others but this is a fairly recent one.
For me, yes extremely. I was quite young and decided to answer an advert for someone chasing a nude model for photographs. Don't know what I was thinking but wanted to try it anyhow.
The gent was fully delighted with me, both my age and how shy I was, which helped encourage me along though I felt just about ready to pass out when I finally walked back into the room naked.
Was an amazing experience though!
What an intriguing story imnakednow. Was your mom getting paid for your modeling or was this rather embarrassing situation she threw you into for some other reason? And you didn't say whether or not she gave you any choice in the matter. It's a good thing you eventually got comfortable with all the strangers who saw you nude and possibly erect and your surroundings, but I find it plain weird that the supposedly professional people in charge of the affair wouldn't let you at least wear a gown on your way from the bathroom where you took off your clothes to the room where the shoot took place. That seems even cruel to do to a young man in the tumultuous throes of puberty.
It doesn't compare at all to your experience but you remind me of my mom putting me in a fashion show when I was about eight. I don't remember if she asked me if I wanted to do it. I do remember really enjoying the spotlight on me as I walked through the crowd, and the announcer talking about me and the clothes to the room full of women as I modeled three different suits. I was relegated to the coatroom to change clothes. I haven't thought about that in decades! Was that my first experience of being looked at by a crowd of strangers, maybe paving the way to me wanting to be seen by others, eventually without any clothes on?? I'll never know, but it is a pleasant thing to remember. I hope your mother at least gave you part of the profits she got by showing your bare body to the world.
I used to feel embarassed when someone who didn't know of my nudisty tendencies saw me without my clothes, but over time I got past that and nothing embarasses me. I would not be comfortable knowingly making someone else uncomfortable however. I was embarassed at first when my mother in law caught me nude, but that was because I thought it would be a problem, but it turned out not to be an issue. My first time on a busy nude beach convinced me that it was fun to be in a crowd without clothes. One time when we were travelling with a tour group in Greece I was walking on the nude section of a beach and a woman from our group waved to me so I walked over and talked with her (clother) and her husband who was like me, nude. It was fun, and we never spoke of it on the tour afterword.
As with many in earlier comments, I must say that nervousness and a little apprehension were the order of the day but not embarrassment. I had checked into visiting a small nudist retreat and was told to come down that weekend and say hello. I drove down, found the place out in the woods and as I parked saw a few guys nude. I may have been a little anxious and obviously a newbie but managed to get nude and wander about the area. I spoke to a couple of folks, found out the guy who told me to come down was not there and proceeded to say hello to whoever I encountered. After a few minutes, I found a member and recounted my story. Without further ado, he introduced me around and I throughly enjoyed the day. I went back many times and am now a member. Its was and is a good experience.
