As usual, we’ve got a huge list of male candidates for Experiment #5 and just one female candidate (there were two more but they changed their minds). So we have from now until the end of the lockdown to find (at least) two more female participants. If social distancing is still a necessary thing after the lockdown ends, that could make for an interesting experiment session.
I’ve tried getting some of the women who have taken part in previous experiments to return for this next one but the consensus seems to be that doing it once is a “challenge” or “experience” but doing it more than once is “weird”.

When the conversation at social gatherings turns to “bucket lists” it seems fairly common for women to have getting naked on their list but then they say they can’t do it yet because the world isn’t ready or it’s too cold or they need to spend time in the gym or whatever. That would be consistent with the women you’ve spoken to just wanting to do it once for the challenge. Of course we’re all individuals though.
Speaking for myself, I imagine I’d find it very difficult the first time but then I’d want to do it again, and probably enjoy it more once I was able to relax into it a bit.
The women who used to join in when we played strip games did so repeatedly, but I suppose it’s different when you’re doing it as part of a social group. We weren’t just assembling to play strip games, we were a mixed group of long-term friends getting together in any case and it was one way we used to have some fun and express ourselves. (I need to find a way of restarting those when things get back to a bit more normal but I suspect the day-to-day practicalities of distance and family life will still get in the way – we haven’t done it for ages now.)

Also on the subject of repetition, I sometimes visit an online forum where people discuss all manner of social and hobby activities and a few sections there are places where people can post naked pictures, either ones they’ve found online or ones of themselves. Most naked photos are posted from single-purpose accounts with names like “Look_at_me_naked” but a small number post on other topics as well as sending in pictures of their own bodies, almost always from the neck down. I noticed one woman who was posting about something else altogether (trees, I think!) and she mentioned that she also sometimes posted on a “naughty” (her word) forum because it gave her some affirmation that she was a good-looking and open-minded human. She did that now and again, not just once, presumably to remind herself that she was accepted in that way.

It’s a very difficult area to get right. I tend to stay away from mentioning positive feedback from viewers to female potential participants. Back when I did, it often worked well but annoyingly often caused them to drop out. Maybe I should be more willing to take risks?

Fingers crossed you manage to find the right mix that you want.
I agree that mixed is best for experiments such as this. As a reader of the previous published experiments, it was better reading about the mixed experiments. As a hopeful participant in future, I can see part of it is the unusual aspect of doing it once and that you have played on that “initial reluctance” – which may be adding to the sense of “weirdness” to do it again.
I am sure you have, but have you asked previous female participants what change they would make to repeat the experiment? With any returning experiment participant, as with any reader of the published ones, there will be advance knowledge of what happened before that means you could (a) use any returning participant as a facilitator and (b) go further than before with new participants.

I was hoping the experiment reports would “spread the word” more than they have so far. It would be great to try out some more daring things such as the bodypainting on the Horizon show the experiments were originally based on, and more outdoor stuff etc.
There probably will be a tendency for experiment sessions to push a little further each time anyway and explore new areas, but it would be cool to get together a group of more daring people to see where this could go.
I should start a thread for experiment suggestions.

Would you be willing to attach a photo/video of the kind of bodypainting you’re thinking of? I haven’t heard of the Horizon show

Firstly, here’s some information on the show:
https://docuwiki.net/index.php?title=What%27s_the_Problem_with_NudityIt looks like pictures are going to take some time as the BBC gremlins appear to have attempted to remove all media from the show from the Internet again! I’ve got the whole thing on an external HDD somewhere.

If I was ever in the UK, and I hope to be as participating in one of these experiments is newly on my bucket list, I would also be down for body painting and being the only one naked. Maybe even outdoors, so long as it was secluded enough that I wouldn’t get arrested. Sadly though, I won’t be able to help with your gender issues, as I’m male.
Also, weird question, do you allow pseudonyms for participants that end up in a book, or only real names?

Would you be able to do an Experiment, even a mini-one, via something like Skype video if this quarantine lasts? Just a thought, since I’m based in the US and that’s the only way I could participate other than a lengthy flight, not that I would be ready for that quite yet anyway

Looks like the #5 I’ve been planning will become #6. Another experiment has just lined itself up for me. All I need now is for the lockdown to end.
Actually there’s a slim chance that I might get permission to publish another experiment that’s already been completed but I’m still negotiating that one.

I never heard any more about the calendar. I’ll try to find out about that – I’d be interested to hear myself. Sadly Anni’s car trip wasn’t as exciting as you’re hoping. She set a day of the week when her female partner was routinely out all day and a time she had to be home by. It would have been interesting if we’d got stuck in traffic!

I would potentially be interested too, especially like the idea of permanent loss or a public nude walk to get the clothes back.
another fun idea would be a strip game with an audience, perhaps the men play and the women watch. Might encourage women to get involved if on first adventure they are not getting naked.

I should point out that almost all the women I’ve spoken to who have shown interest in the experiments, are interested in being naked themselves more than any other part of the experience. There’s very little interest in male nudity. It’s more that they are happy to see men naked so that they get their chance to be naked too.
I get more women wanting to take part in women-only experiments, which probably says something.

I wonder if any of the previous participants could blog about their experience, email it to you and you could publish using the character name from the experiment to preserve anonymity.
I’ve only read the first one so far, but would be very interested in the 2 slightly more embarrassed men, I wasn’t very interested in the one who couldn’t wait to get his kit off as I felt it spoiled slightly as the other 5 were on a brave journey.
Also Sian and Natalie for different reasons, Sian as I’m older and similarly slightly nervous and inhibited, and Natalie as I have been known to dom and was interested in her submissive side and would like to know how she felt reacting to orders to expose herself.
Also what did the participants feel reading descriptions of themselves and what happened to them. What were they feeling as they were naked and others were looking closely at them?

Getting people to post anything online is very difficult. This subject is just too much of a taboo. SO many people are happy to talk about it in PMs but not in any kind of public forum.
Maybe I should consider restructuring this community as a private club? But then that might put others off joining. Half-and-half maybe?? How would that work?

Should I advertise that as a feature of the Community Supporters‘ area? That’s not open to the public…

Possibly there is more we could do privately. Also why not have an anonymous section, may encourage more women to contribute.
They email you a post, story, blog or picture and you post all the posts in that section as anonymous, covering faces if requested on pics
