First steps in nudism.

My first blog here, not really sure what to write yet, but I guess I'll give it a go. I think it is quite hard for a person like myself to become a nudist. Not only because the culture I am part of mostly laughs it off, and also friends that think it's my latest 'craze' to want to try something like that. People saying things like; "You dont even like to sunbathe!" which is true; but I am mostly interested in this lifestyle because of the sense of freedom it gives me. It is also hard because my boyfriend Tom really isnt into the lifestyle and has so far shown no curiosity either, but on the other hand he supports me into exploring this newfound interest of mine, which is enough for now. Alot of people still have strange thoughts when the word nudism comes up, and akward glares are seen around the room, when mentioning it at a party or a friend's house. It is sad that it gets intertwined so much with sexuality and perversion, while in my mind it has nothing to do with each other. Unfortunately people with the perversion mindset are also infiltrated into this community so, I know that I have to be careful with who I talk to...But it's a trial and error process I believe. This coming summer I will definately go for it, and we'll see what happens next. Boyfriend says it will feel like I'm a sorta nude soldier going to the battlefield of nudism, and maybe for him it feels like that. To me it will feel like freedom, and I am looking forward to this. Have an excellent weekend everyone. -Romy
