BARE with Me: Exploring Nudism and Sex/uality
A podcast about body positivity, culture, blackness, and nudism
Welcome back to the BARE with Me Podcast, where we dive into the intersections of body positivity, culture, blackness, and nudism. I’m Jay, your host, and I’m excited to guide you through these meaningful conversations. Each episode, we bring in a diverse range of guests, including those who aren’t nudists, to share their unique perspectives and experiences. Our goal is to create a space for thoughtful dialogue, challenge societal norms, and deepen our understanding of these interconnected topics. Whether you’re a seasoned nudist or simply curious about body positivity and culture, this podcast offers something for everyone. Find it wherever you normally get your podcasts. New episodes are released monthly.
On this month’s episode, I’m joined by my good friend Dani, a brilliant sexologist, for a conversation many of you have been asking for. Together, we’re stripping it down and exploring the connection between nudism and sexuality. We’ll discuss the role of body positivity in our lives, its relevance in Black culture, and how social media shapes our views on these topics. Dani will offer her expertise to unpack why nudism and sex are often linked in societal conversations—and why this connection can be both helpful and harmful. This is an episode you won’t want to miss.
Stay tuned, and BARE with Me! 🪐
Thought provoking! The guest remembers visiting her Grandma clad in T-shirt only, the rest of her family sounded pretty uptight about cloths. My dad was openly naked in the home in the mornings and I was exposed as kid to Nudist magazine covers high up on a sales rack, it would be interesting to have a comparative study on what draws people to social nudism. Not sure about my wife, she grew up Dutch Reformed Church with 5 older brothers but when we became Nudists at a Florida club she got naked quicker than me!
We were good Naturists when naked, not to say we never had intercouse out on the grounds but only when alone. I will say naked is convenient!!!!
We eventually joined a Swinger Club that met twice a month at a Sheraton, clothed dinner and social hour and introductions with interest declaration. Then the easy part, for us at least, get naked but this time for sex with like minded adults only!
An interesting podcast. You mentioned something that really agrees with my thoughts, and that is how most social nudists absolutely overdo this 'it has nothing to do with sex' line. I actually feel that there is a lot insincerity being put forward. Because of what I consider the sick attitudes of our society, the social nudists have really overdone trying to convince people that nudism has nothing to do with sexual matters. They do this to try and protect their ability to meet together with other naked people. I must be very honest in saying that I believe that there should be NO laws against public nudity. Also the denial of getting pleasure from seeing other naked people is, I feel, disingenuous. I could say a lot about this, and wouldn't be popular, but we need to all be honest with each other.
