Loving nudity and sex doesn't mean that I am into being lewd or invasive about it. I don't have random sexual encounters with strangers, out in the open, and I am most definitely not out to objectify or pursue sex, constantly. I'm merely honest in believing that people can be free to include their sexuality in the enjoyment of being nude with one-another. That this can be an honest and natural way of sharing and connecting with friends. To me, this means living in balance -- neither rushing toward, nor pushing against sex. It is a position of neutrality, in which I remain joyfully open to possibilities and don't live in denial about what's going-on inside of me. I think that the most vociferous of "non-sexual nudity" proponents completely miss the entire point. They see the world in terms of needing to wholly dis-identify with a world that packages-up sexuality as a commodity to be consumed. In some ways I agree with that mentality, but I don't agree that it has to mean contorting oneself into believing that they don't find nudity to be sexually-appealing in any way, shape, or form. That's simply not human. There is simply no way to deny it: nudity IS sexual -- that's just the way we are wired and there is no way around it.
