As others have said, it would depend on the person. For example, Ive accepted some coworkers friend requests on Facebook and declined or ignored others. It all just depends on the person and our interpersonal dynamic. The same would apply here. If theyre on TN *and* send me a friend request, they obviously wouldnt be bothered by this aspect of my personal life.
Hasnt happened yet, though.

Absolutely.. I think it'd be great to have something like that in common. There are 2 guys I work with, I was talking about a cruise I went on, it was a nude cruise but I didn't mention that part. The one guy says well if you loved the cruise, you'd love this resort we have both been to in Mexico... They gave me the name of Hidden Beach... So at least we can share stories of our trips. With in the next year we're all supposed to go the same week that should be fun.

I would accept a friend request. Sending one wouldn't happen unless I happened to recognize the picture in the profile.

When I get a friend request, I PM with them a few times before I approve it. If it is a blank or private profile then I decline.

If their profile here is complete, public, and certified, and assuming I am otherwise interested in maintaining a friendship with them outside of work, then yes, I would be open to both. If I later needed to unfriend them, well, that might be awkward.

I most certainly wouldn't risk today's fraternizing laws in the work place by asking for a friend request and would do some serious thinking before accepting one from them. I've been thru the fraternizing of a co-worker accusations and it wasn't pretty for either of us. Learned my lesson!!
I keep my private life to myself ...

I know a colleague who's a nudist, and we get along fine, but I wouldn't send a friend request (he's not on TN, so that makes it easy). I like to separate work from home.

I am going to say yes to that. I have many work friends on other forms of social media. If we are both on this site then I would have to assume that it would not be an issue.

While someone's initial reaction may focus on the awkwardness or fear stemming from the situation, there is one thing to focus on: both parties are nudists / naturists who are adults that clearly share the same lifestyle and values. Seeing a coworker or even your boss here, a resort or beach shouldn't be awkward. It should be a moment to bond, make a friendship that may not have otherwise formed or simply acknowledge that you both have chosen to live a more natural lifestyle. There shouldn't be any shame or embarrassment. In some ways it is similar to running into a coworker or boss in the shower room of the local gym. Neither one of you will talk about the fact that you've seen each other nude but rather the conversation would likely be about not knowing you both belonged to the same gym and your experiences there. So to answer the question, yes I would accept or send a friend request to a coworker.

Of course not. Business is Business and private life is private life

I would not. I don't accept friend requests from coworkers on any social media platform. As said earlier business and personal life does not necessarily go together.

That could be super high risk since the person may just be setting you up for compromising photos to use against you.

I socialize nude with two teachers from the school where I use to teach (retired now). I see no problem with it. I'm now at the age where some of my former students are attending some of the nude gatherings I attend.

I had a collegue that I discussed nudism with, He said he was open to hanging out. We went to my friend's place to hang out. He used the washroom when we arrived, so I undressed and went to the kitchen. When he was done he joined us. He was at half mast and very comfortable with it. We hugged and laughed. We had a steam shower and my friend started to get sexual, which was very awkward for me. My coworker told me to relax, when in Rome... and we had a lot of fun together.

I would assume that the coworker was on the same site so would be of the same persuasion. I would have no problem sending or accepting a friend request. However, if it was someone I didn't care for I would probably ignore a request, and I certainly wouldn't send one. If we are not friendly at work why would being on the same nudist site change that any more than riding on the same train or bus?

Of course, if they were on here I would love to socialize with them.

Yes. I already know a couple of coworkers that are nudists or at least go to the nearby nude beach. Im not ashamed to be a nudist, especially if I know someone is potentially a kindred spirit.

What a great question!
There are clear cases for and against. Generally I don't cross over my personal social media with work social media (eg Linkedin), and seldom do I socialise with work place colleagues. I have just found life easier that way.
The issue here though is that they found you in the nudie world/community, which means that strictly speaking they too are a nudie, and this opens up opportunity for social nudity and that can often be extremely hard to find.
So you really need to first approach them 'off air' and not through here, and sound out whether they are genuine. Heaven knows there have been many casual nudies and try before you buy nudies during the pandemic who have now returned to clothed textile life.

If I socialise with them outside of work, why not?

We draw a strict line between public and private life in our office. I don't FB much at all and block my employees even from that. Absolutely there are varying circumstances where commingling private and public life is doable and then there are some that it would not bode well.
