Swimming nude or sleeping nude.
When we moved into this house, it had a pool with a low chain link fence, so I could only swim nude after dark.
It didn't make sense to put something on to go to bed, so I slept nude on nights I went swimming.
Early in the second summer. I began sleeping nude every night.
I made a short halfhearted attempt to wear something in bed when fall arrived but decided to continue sleeping nude.
33 years later, I still do.

    Neighborhood friends had a pool and we used to swim nude at an early age.. When we went camping, we'd skinny dip, get out and let the air dry us and the one kid said we always sleep nude its up to you if you wanna join us. So on camping trips and staying at their house I slept nude.. At 13 I said screw it and started sleeping nude at home and 43 years later I still do..... So the nude swimming came first LOL

    Swimming nude came first, we had a backyard pool as did several of my friends. We were pre teens (10- 12) and would skinny dip at night which felt great. Skinny dipping was our introduction to nudism and to social nudity although we did not know it at then. I started sleeping nude soon afterwards.

    For those of you who started sleeping nude at 13 or younger, how did your parents react?

    Swimming nude came first for me. I was on the YMCA Swim Team at age 5. We did wear suits until many years later when the YWCA closed and the combined the operations in 1968. That was about the same time I switched to the high school team where we swam nude fir one year till the school hiree a womens coach. We had to wear suits after that because some of tge women trained with us so they could assist teaching others to swim. High school, I started sleeping nude and have been for the last 55 years.

    Hmm. It feels like it all happened at once for me. There were many activities I enjoyed doing without clothes while growing up, without realizing or knowing what being a nudist meant.

    On sweltering, humid days, I would hike into the heart of the woods with a friend, seeking respite at a secluded creek. Though not particularly deep or swift, the creek's waters flowed with a gentle flow of water. I can't recall exactly when we first shed our swimsuits, but one day we did, and from that moment, we were hooked. We would lie on the smooth, cool rocks, their surfaces slick beneath us, as the water cascaded over our bare skin. It felt instinctive, a simple pleasure that we cherished, returning to this sanctuary summer after summer.

    However, during those sweltering, humid summer nights when the air was thick and heavy, and the absence of air conditioning left no relief, I would shed my pajamas and sleep nude until the first light of morning. The cool embrace of the night air was the only relief I could find. Upon waking, I would slip back into my pajamas as if nothing had changed. It was an odd routine, perhaps, but it felt perfectly natural to me. I never wore underwear with my pajamas; it seemed redundant, as if the pajamas themselves were enough. Observing other men, who chose to sleep in their underwear, always struck me as peculiar and somewhat unnecessary.

    Swimming came first for me, an adventure in the creek running through the family farm. Don't recall sleeping naked as a kid at home, but did once I moved out of home. Sleep naked every night no matter where, my home, my partners, when away. Only time that's a problem is when camping in a camp ground and having to get up to use public toilets.
