Positive discussion with my wife today

I had a discussion with my wife today regarding the effects of my recent prostate surgery, and commented on the effects on my penis length... She is a nurse, and said "well, it's pretty good compared to some I see on older men". That opened up a discussion of the whole issue of nudity in front of others (she used to go to nude beaches and resorts, hike nude with me, go to hot springs nude, etc. but stopped a few years ago), and she actually listened when I pointed out that society, and other Christians (we are fervent believers), think nothing negative of nurses, doctors, and other professionals in the medical and emergency-services fields see random people nude, so obviously neither our society nor (most) Christians condemn seeing someone of the opposite sex naked, per se. Spouses can see each other nude without recrimination - and see their young children naked. Examples abound. That removes nudity from the "never" category to the "sometimes permissible" category. Now the question becomes, "when is it permissible?". I pointed out that to her, it's unremarkable and nothing to get sexually aroused by... nor is it titillating for almost all medical professionals. Why? Because in the context arousal is not acceptable nor allowed, and because they are so used to seeing people naked that it's commonplace and not exciting. I went on to say that as often as she and I have been to nude venues, we are used to it and it's no longer titillating or exciting - just fun and freeing. I pointed out that we never have seen sexual or seductive behaviour and no indication that people were being turned on by a nudist / naturist environment. She replied that "we don't know what's going on inside their heads", to which I said "that's the case with or without clothes". She accepted the premise - "I guess you're right" - but went on to say "people will see the sags and wrinkles" to which I said (and she agreed) that it's not like you can't figure out someone has a saggy whatever with their clothes on... no real surprises. I also reminded her of the very first time we skinnydipped in mixed company - two hot tubs full of naked men and women (except for us in our swim suits), some of them attractive; no one was ogling anyone else. UNTIL a very attractive young lady in a HOT PINK BIKINI (an itsy bitsy one) came onto the hot tub deck. PRETTY MUCH EVERY EYE turned to her and watched her. That was my ephiphany: She stood out and attracted attention more than the nude bodies around us, because the bright clothing ATTRACTED attention to her boobs and pelvis. All the nude flesh looked pretty much standard issue - compared to the hot pink We took our suits off right after that and blended in. Disclaimer: My wife skinnydipped with others summer of 2016 at hot springs near Sun Valley, and we camped nude not far from there in the National Forest, and we both camped and hiked nude near another hot spring where we hiked to the river, forded the river, soaked in a hot spring, and explored the island the hot spring was on, all nude. She also hiked nude with me on two separate days in 2015 in the Eagle Cap Wilderness, 8 miles on day, 12 miles the other day; we didn't run into anyone else - but we might have, and she was ok with that. But this discussion today, I'm hoping, will open her to more nude vacations and adventures. Part of the trigger for the initial discussion was her coming home to see me nude at my computer (not that unusual except lately having houseguests has mostly precluded my naked time; today they were all away from the house for several hours). She has never had a problem with me being nude in the house.
