I agree that genuine nudist friends can be the best friends. As said above, our best friends are also nudists, there's a mindset that seems to go with many true nudists being open physically and inclined to be the same mentally. Over time we've also found that our best friends are nudists, we don't always have to be naked together to feel both closer and that everyone is very upfront in each others company. We're probably nude +75% of the time we're with them, but if we're in textile situations with them and good textile friends we find there's often an extra bond with the nudist friends.
Some time ago we realised that we were gravitating towards spending more time with other nudists, partly because we enjoy nudism both at home and when socialising very much, but also because of the extra dimensions our good nudist friendships have. Similarly to what was said above our long term textile friendships lack that extra closeness we have amongst our close nudist circle. I can't imagine not being a nudist for the rest of life, its a brilliant way of living, so I can only imagine that we'll continue along these lines, spending more and more time with other nudists because of what I said above.
There are certainly instances when we've been visiting a new nudist club and found the great majority of people we've met there to be very friendly. The chances are obviously high that fee-paying members at nudist clubs will be genuine nudists with similar appreciations to us of living naked, with the associated openness mentally. I love meeting new people when we're all nude, its a great leveler of a starting point, no labels attached through clothing and generally less hang-ups. We've certainly made some good new friends on these visits, I'd be very interested to know if we'd have got on so well from the outset if we'd not all been naked together throughout a long weekend, but I'll never know that, I guess we may well have because we have similar openness mentally.
However, I also agree that the same description does not apply to all nudists. I can think of some who I have much less in common with, different outlooks and attitudes to much of life, just as I don't have a lot in common with some neighbours or work colleagues. Of these it tends to be people I've met on public nude beaches rather than at nudist clubs. As we use our local nudist beaches a lot thats no big deal as we have some great local friends who use them too. Just as at work where I interact more with some people there than others, I'll make the most of having those very close nudist friends, we don't have to be friends with everyone just because they are also nudists.
There are some people I am friends with online through sites like this, due to our locations we'll probably never be in the same physical place, however our shared love of nudism has bought us in contact and we talk about some things I don't talk to with textile friends I've known for much longer. This applies to both genders, single and in relationships, our shared love of nudism has brought similar mindsets together. I do love both being a nudist and having great nudist friends, when things work well between individuals it seems far better within the context of nudism.
Stay naked, when life is at its best for me I'm invariably nude and in the company of other nudists.
I think one of the reasons that nudists tend to be nice is that jerks and assholes don't want to show vulnerability by being naked. Their personality requires being in control and intimidating other people, and that's hard to do when you're naked. Getting undressed also removes the trappings of power that they're wearing. So, the real jerks avoid nudism for the most part, leaving the nicer folks free to get along with each other.
