New Mexico Naturists Rules

Naturist EtiquetteIf you are new to Naturism/nudism, there are some things you should know about naturist etiquette. Just like in the textile world, there are some rules you need to follow before deciding to go about your day/evening in a Naturist environment.Towels: Towels are a MUST to have. There are various sizes and types of towels you can use to sit on for hygienic reasons. If you have not read my blog about the towels, you can read it here. Wherever you go, if you are gonna sit anywhere you should sit on your towel. Especially if you are going to go to someones house or visiting the Naturist campgrounds & resorts. You will be required to sit on your towel regardless if you just had a fresh shower.Shower: If you are going into a hot tub or Jacuzzi, etc do shower yourself down before stepping in one. This helps to make sure you are clean of anything that can make the water dirty from for example earth(dirt), grass, oils, sunscreen, lotion, deodorants, sweat etc. They are not asking you to shower down because you yourself are dirty but it helps keep the water much cleaner longer.Cameras/Photos: I think the majority of all nude recreation activities will not allow you to bring or use a camera because its not polite to just go around snapping photos. Many people do not want to be in your photo album. If you are going to take a photo its best you make sure that everyone that is in the shot, you have their permission, or you might just see yourself kicked out of wherever you are & this could also hinder your standing with the club, resort or federation outings in the future. Photos posted on our website are of a private nature. Please don't save, distribute or publish them on a public forum.Eye Contact: Hey my eyes are up here! It is very rude to stare and moreover, if you are gonna have a conversation with someone make sure you are talking to them with proper eye contact. If you're going to an event or beach for a thrill you might as well buy a magazine and do us all a favor and stay home. Also, its very rude to be talking about other people's bodies. Avoid it and talk about something safer like food, weather, etc.Clothes: Yes, were nudists but not stupid. At Naturist resorts, campgrounds sometimes clothes are allowed when its cold out or if the weather isnt in our favor. However, lingerie is not considered appropriate attire under any of these circumstances nor is walking around in your underwear.Get a room: Any sexual activity in a public setting is not only offensive .. its illegal. Nobody wants to see that. However, holding hands, a hug or simple kissing is fine. If you want to show extra affection with someone you love, I suggest you get a room or wait till you're back home to do so.Erections: Yes, they can happen. especially if you are new to nudism. The best way to deal with this is to either turn over on your towel or if you are at a beach, you can stay in the water until your situation comes more under control. However, if you see someone with an obvious erection and is purposely drawing attention, let a lifeguard or authorities know about this and in most cases, will be kicked out and banned from coming back again.Nude Beach Facilities: When you are at a nude beach, just because you are allowed to be naked does not mean that the facilities are accessible in the nude. So keep your clothes close or wrap yourself with your towel.Body Language: It does not take verbal language to be able to know what you are not saying. Body language can sometimes speak louder than words. You dont want to be sitting like the barn doors are wide open. Sit properly and keep your legs together. We all know you have one. Nobody wants to see your legs spread open wide.Food/Drink: If we are having a potluck try to bring something to share, but if you are unable to bring something don't be detoured from attending an event. We usually bring more than enough food to share. Alcohol is ok to bring but please drink responsibly.
