I am curious about nude males on beaches. I have been going to nude beaches on and off most of my life and I am straight. Recently I have been going at least 2 to 3 times a week by myself for the last 3 years to the same beach (my wife occasionally joins me as well).
I have tried to strike up conversations with others but it seems that I have spiders all over me. Not one has ever approached me and said hello.
Very few if any will engage in a conversation and when they do, they seem very introverted/reluctant/suspicious. I thought nudists were likeminded people who would gladly associate or engage with others.
Is it a fear that I am bi and after some action? Or it believed that 2 male nudists chatting are perceived as bi or something sexual? From experience on this site, a good proportion seem to have an agenda other nudism.
Is it a male thing, some sort of taboo or is that male nudists are loners because of public perception that all males are somewhat perverted and have a hidden agenda. Nudist couples do not seem to have a problem from what I have seen.
Id like to hear your thoughts.

JimAug 31, 2020[quote]A club in my state charges a non-member female $25 per day to use the resort. But an unaccompanied male would pay $150. What state do you live in? Is this sort of disparity common? I've heard that some clubs favor females over males, but SIX TIMES the amount?[/quote] The club here does the same. Here's why. If they let single men in at 25, 50 or even 75 bucks, there will be 5 to 1 men to women. And the women will not be having any fun at all, because all of the dudes who come in at 25 are there to try to pick up. I, gay dude, can get one of 5 or 6 women to accompany me to a mixed function so that I am not throwing the gender mix off. Sometimes, I bring two. One, they appreciate the escort, they know I am not going to hit on them, that I will bounce the bozos, and back up whatever their interests for the day are. The 150 buck fee is the one they know will reduce the number of men to women to a reasonable ratio. It is better to have 10 single men with the means to pay that fee than 60, which is how many you get at 25 for the same money. Ask anyone who runs these things, and they will all tell you the same thing. Anything less and it turns into a sausage festival (which even platonically is not what most guys or women naturists are wanting). The solution is to bring a date. Half of my women dates are bi leaning lesbians who want to be able to be in that environment with a man so they can enjoy that space but safely and passing as heterosexual. If she went with another woman, it could be much less pleasant (or not, but once is enough for most), I get to follow etiquette and everyone gets to meet people socially and for social interactions. It's a win win.ReactReply - JO

And if I tell the women I meet that "Hey, I wanna go to a nudist resort. Do you want to come with me? No touching?" I don't think I'd get many takers. So guys can't get in without paying more because then there'd be too many guys. And if there were too many guys, there wouldn't be any gals. It sounds like a Catch-22 situation to me. It sort of implies that, unless women were in the majority, they wouldn't go to nudist resorts at all, and the only way to get them there is to guarantee that there wouldn't be any single men there. If movie theaters or restaurants had the same policy, I doubt that many would stay in business.ReactReply - ST
StevieLornaSep 1, 2020We eat out a lot, its very rare to see a single man or woman eating in a restaurant alone.
Ive never went or wanted to go to the cinema by myself.
Nudist resorts must have something to attract single men that restaurants and cinemas dont

A group of 2 or more men together at a nudist resort would be just as unwelcome as one being there alone.ReactReply - STStevieLornaSep 1, 2020
My point was Woodmans comment about restaurants and cinemas was a nonsense comparison as single men would not make a dent in takings as its something they dont do.
The resorts and hotels weve been at, often have pairs of men (not in a relationship) sharing rooms. Its cost is the same for the rooms /apartments even if its single occupied.

I completely forgot that Americans are nomadic. No wonder you all have to do things as single men.
Makes a lot of sense now.
