Stealthy Nudists
This is a group for those who don't have the necessary privacy, to practice nudism at home. Join and discuss how you privatized an area of the outdoors outdoorsy home to be nude. Open back yard, close neighbors, city homes, decks in full view of the street..

Not sure about going outside
Return to DiscussionsEven though it is only April, we have already had several days in the 70's here in Michigan. Of course that means I want to get outside and enjoy the nice climate. However, last year the neighbors called the police on me twice. I was told that if it happens again, they will have to arrest me for indecent exposure. In Michigan, that means if I am convicted, I will be placed on the criminal sex offenders list. This could be very damaging to me as well as my career. I have only managed to go out on the patio a few times late at night when I know everyone is inside. I have located a couple to walking trails in my area that appear to be deserted. I have been to both a couple of times to see how many people actually go there. So far things look very good for me to get some outdoor time in these locations. But, until I am certain, I am resigned to being a inside home nudist. At least I can still drive naked anytime I want.

I believe the neighbors have made it quite clear what will happen if they see you nude again in your yard. Yes, its very frustrating that you can't be free to enjoy the property you live on, but not everything in life is fair.
Unless you can put up some sort of shelter, fencing or view blocker you will be stuck being a home nudist for the time being. Don't be ignorant and force the issue. Your neighbors are already mad at you. Just accept being a home nudist and try to attend clubs on vacations or possibly see if anyone has started a non-landed group nearby...say within like 100 miles.

My best suggestion ... re-read the post from Californiacoast, Post #3 ... she's given you the absolute best advice!
I think if this happened to me and it may not be an option for you, I'd try and find out who called the cops and ask to speak to them. Before doing so, I'd try and remember what I may have done, besides simply being naked in my backyard, to call the cops on me. Is there a neighbor dispute that has been ongoing separate from the nudity. If my neighbors called the cops on me twice due to my nudity on my property, I would suspect that they are now on the lookout for me to do it again. Sometimes people take their policing other people to another level and are on the lookout to see any hint of you doing anything wrong.
Aside from all that, I'd still heed the words of Post #3 and Californiacoast!
From the highway, you would have a perfectly clear view of my house (my backyard), and since I am surrounded by houses with little kids (younger than 8), I am not able to go outside naked unless it's late at night, in which people are home at that time. But I the rare case nobody is home or will be home that night, I will go outside for a good amount of time.
I just read the Michigan laws and analysis on indecent exposure. It is very broad, harsh and gives great latitude to law enforcement and the prosecutors on what is indecent exposure. Do not tempt fate as it is not worth it. I also live in a draconian state and community when it comes to public nudity.
