To me, ‘naked’ is when your genitals are in display. Those are the ‘parts’ that would get you in trouble if people see on your walk, not your feet 😁

Seeing this question come back up in popularity again it got me thinking if I would ‘ever’ do this. It also made me reflect on the following piece of artwork. It’s a depreciation of ancient spartan boys and girls excercising, such practices being reinforced in Spartan society for many reasons. The Ancient Greek men typically exercised naked, and such can be seen in the painting, however, the women in the painting are not fully naked. Despite the fact men/boys worked out naked to honor the gods with their figures, that same logic is not entirely carried over onto the women? Why?

Well, I got to thinking, even in their nude statues of women ancient Greeks offer women modesty ‘down there’, many examples of naked Greek statues have women using one hand to cover or are positioned to offer modesty one way or another. If they are full frontally nude, a woman’s ‘lips’ or ‘slit’ is not depicted in the artwork offering some censorship. Even in a more ‘liberally nude’ society like the ancient Greeks, even when nudity was almost required, women were modest enough to cover ‘down there?’ Why?

Well, I can think of several reasons why I want to cover ‘down there’ why I am working out.

1. General modesty and privacy, even in a society where nudity is more acceptable there are those that are still perverted and horny enough to be aroused and perhaps want to try something at seeing a fully naked woman. I imagine in Ancient Sparta especially where there was strict social guidelines about marriage that this could be very ‘arousing’ to the young Spartans, and in a present setting could be all the same. Breasts seemed to not have been as sexualized then as they are in our present culture.

2. Sexual positions in exercise; there are many machines and even free body excercises that offer a very easy ‘imagined in a sexual’ context. The leg press machine (if we can all be adults) basically puts me in missionary and the ‘leg spreader’ I call it does the same. To be fully naked on these pieces of equipment would let anyone and everyone see inside of me, which, is even more embarrassing than just generally being seen naked! Even doing crunches, sit-ups, or other excercises of the like have a ‘sexual innuendo’ behind them that being fully naked gives another level of exposure to.

3. Sexual signals; going off my previous point, seeing a naked woman basically in (again if we can be adults here) missionary where they can see as much as a gynecologist can give some pretty heavy signals to many people about what that woman might want. Clothing or the lack therof have always been used to help convey feelings, thoughts, and other ideals, and a naked woman often portrays feelings of sex. That level of attention alone could make being naked in a gym setting, where it is mostly male, be very uncomfortable.

I know this was a long post, but just wanted to give my thoughts on it. I still don’t think based on my believes and how I was raised I would ever work out fully naked, or even topless, but I know some women might and even enjoy it for the same reasons I wouldn’t. However, that is just my humble opinion.

I would be inclined to say no because for me nudity, especially in a relationship needs to have some sort of level of trust behind it, and if we are on a blind date and just meeting I don’t know of that trust can be established so quickly. Good question though 😉

I really don’t have a limit in my mind, $1,000 dollars is what seems to grace my mind as a number but in general any decent sum that can help me long term.

Sorry Ed; I just like keeping my clothes on

I feel like if clothing allergies were a thing, there would be more research and understanding about what in our clothing is triggering the allergies and a workout would be implemented from that rather than a rush into nudity. But, perhaps the workaround would be for that person to live on a nudist resort type area with others that have the allergy of a new form of non allergenic clothing isn’t possible?
