Family Nudists

[NancyF]

Ok Didn't know where to post this but since the main of my problem is sexual I put it here.

My parents have decided that our family should be nudists for the next 3months as we being paid to under go a study and how we adapt I guess.

So far its not well. I hate it. I shy about my body. I feel like my brother and dad are looking at my parts. Hell even my mom is staring at me.

I'm guilty too I admit it I can't help but look at there stuff mom too.

Brother and Dad walk around with them all hard and stuff and its awkward. I have to admit I feeling effected to and being all turned on around family isn't right. My instincts want me to sometimes reach out and grab hold of there thing but that is really wrong and wouldn't make anything easier.

My parents know how mad I am and I complain all the time but they say there not going to break there deal either. 2months 3 weeks to go and I going insane already. So much tension.

No offense, but parents who don't take into consideration their underage child is highly uncomfortable with the experiment are irresponsible (and a few other adjectives) parents. In fact, the set up itself sounds entirely unethical. There are laws against this kind of thing. You cannot force anyone to be naked, let alone a child in front of grown adults.

Report this to someone outside of your family or those conducting the experiment. Call the police if you need to, but try child protective services first. This is child exploitation, and it is illegal, especially compounded by the sexual nature of what's going on.

As for your experiencing sexual feelings from it, try not to feel bad about yourself for it. It imagine it is natural to be at an age of sexual awakening and finding yourself aroused somewhat by the presence of naked people, even if they are your family. My whole point is this is not your fault, and what's happening to you is sick and wrong. Report it to someone as soon as possible, because this seems to be having negative effects on your psychological health, let alone other areas of your health.

Ok I upset for them just seeing some money and not taking my feelings into consideration but I have reluctantly agreed to do this and I not going to go back on my word and then get them in trouble. I'd feel guilty then. I just trying to get thru the next few months. While I expected to be shy about my body and seeing there's I didn't expect these feelings inside me to start to stress me out. But thanks I will try to cope.

See... I don't know the legality of this. I'm not really sure this is something you should take immediately to child services. You are not being photographed, you are not being touched...this is a very difficult situation. They have no right to force you to be a nudist, so I would talk to them about allowing you to stay out of it. However, you do not realy have a choice on if they want to continue doing so themselves. Some families are veyr chill about nudity in the household. My family are not nudists, but I would talk to my mother in her room while she was getting dressed, and my father was comfortable getting dressed in front of me when I was a child (before I developed sexually) and I had no problem with it. Being comfortable wtih nudity varies from person to person, and there is nothing wrong with you if you are comfortable OR uncomforable. If you have a problem, you should talk to them first.

Child services are a great thing, they protect kids, but for situations like this, it could easily blow out of proportion and people can get arrested and it wouldn't be fun. I would recommend talking to your family personally about this before taking any legal action. Then perhaps talk to a guidance counselor at your school.

Nudist is a lifestyle choice and you don't always need to be nude you can have some types of outfits on any time and there is no law say that you can not be nude because you are expressing your self and if you ever feel uneasy just put something on when your home CPS can't really do much about family trying out being nude because being nude show your proud of the way you look and you don't care if people judge you my family was kinda like a nudist family at night because no one had on any outfits when your raise in a nudist family seeing the naked body does not bother you and they believe it to cut down sex and child molestation but i don't know much on that fact you can always google it.

Well, they shouldn't force you to do anything you don't want to do. I think my brother would be happy to be a nudist, he's always in his underwear...

One thing you could do is pretend to be cold and wrap yourself in a blanket, and you could try to avoid looking at waist level.

You should explain to your parents about how uncomfortable you are and what you personally feel about this experament.

I cant add anything that has not been said already, if you are too shy to speak to someone about it wear a blanket or just get dressed anyway. I know for one i couldnt be a nudist around my own family, doubt i could at all tho either.

My family never made any special effort to avoid being seen naked and I saw all my family naked many times, but it was always in some setting like changing into or out of swimsuits or coming out of the shower. I enjoy being naked with friends skinny dipping or in a jacuzzi.

But I think there's something else going on in your family. I think they're agreeing to this without taking your feelings into account is totally inappropriate and inconsiderate and the fact that the males are walking around with erections is inappropriate, too. I could understand if your brother is in his early teens when it can't be helped, but your father absolutely knows better. It's not acceptable for a guy to walk around in front of his teenage kids with a hard on. I think your family needs counseling.

I'm ok with social nudity, but in every legitimate nude situation the comfort level of others is always respected. I don't think there's anything wrong with your not wanting to participate or see others naked and you should have your feelings respected. (BTW, your curiosity is natural and healthy so you don't have anything to worry about with yourself.)

^I realize this isn't a debate, but I question your statement about the dad walking around with an erection to be inappropriate. It's natural, and no less natural than that happening to a teenager. In fact, nudity in ITSELF is natural.

That's not to say though that your feelings shouldn't be taken into account. They shouldn't be forcing you into this, at all.

Regarding your curiosity and instincts: don't worry about it--it's natural. We ALL have those feelings from time to time.
