How many of you are comfortable and confident being naked?! I was surprised at how many women said they feel the most sexy and confident and desirable naked. I hate sleeping in the nude (although I have a bad habit of walking around the house naked while trying to find clothes to wear)... I have to seriously have a drink or two or be on some kind of natural, goofy, sunshine and daisies good mood high to feel comfortable naked!!... and that's far and few between! I don't know why, I have a decent body (by 'decent' I mean I've come to terms with it, LOL)... I've just never been one to feel comfortable in the buff.

Are you comfortable and confident naked??

What can I do next?

I personally find it hard to believe that you can't sleep naked but you walk around the house naked. In bed, you are covered with sheets and in the privacy away from windows and children. Walking around the house, you are exposed. And you want to know who is "comfortable and confident naked" -- in bed? You didn't even say if you're sleeping with someone. This gives me pause............ and makes me wonder if there is any other underlying question or response here that isn't as evident.

I have the opposite of what I would consider a decent body, but that doesn't stop me from being naked! I'm aware that I definitely look better with clothes on, but my husband loves every inch of me physically, no matter stick-thin (20 years old) or lusciously curvy (current), makes no difference to him. If I'm naked, he's happy, period. I prefer to sleep either totally naked or at the most in a pair of undies. I don't want to feel like my clothes are stangling me while I sleep because I do tend to roll around a good bit.

To Cathy: You can't have been on this site long if you don't at least know OF R. D., she's on here constantly & very open-minded about just about everything. You'll find she's got a lot of friends & your best bet would be to not bash her without at least reading her profile first. Just a little head's up for ya! ;)

Very much so - I love my body! The older I get, the more I love it. I actually have a better body now than I did when I was in my 20's. Babies actually HELPED my bod! Having babies gave me bigger boobs (ok, they are still only barely C's, but bigger than they were) and I am a size 2, nice firm butt, flat tummy with no stretch marks. I used to be a size 6 pre babies! Love it!

only 'in the act'
You've heard that saying - if you ask a man who is the most beautiful girl in the world, he will say the naked one in the room. I've really taken that to heart. When we are having relations, I feel very sexy and confidant about my body. Then afterward, I immediately get up and look for a robe before I go get us a glass of ice water!

LOVE being naked! I despise laying in bed with clothes on, and pretty much would only do that if in a hospital or if I was crashing on someone's couch, lol. If a guest at someone else's home, I keep clothes by the bed but no to sleeping in them. I'm overweight, nowhere even close to perfect, but having a perfect body is not a prerequisite for liking yourself. :)

Yup. When my husband and I went to St. Croix for our Honeymoon, once we got there, we found out that the pool/poolside right outside our room was clothing optional... We both took advantage of that. : )

I don't sleep completely nude. I will wear cotton undies... But that's it.

I dont know why. Last night I was all tired and went in to take a bath, when I got out and looked at myself naked, I was like "Yeah lets do this!" Lol. Maybe Im just ovulating...lol I dunno. Since I just had a baby, Im not liking the way clothes are fitting me, but Im ok with the way I look naked. Weird.

Cathy, that was a little deep. ;)~

answers from Spokane on

I am not comfortable being naked at all! Only during "relations" :) I sleep with at least boxers/boy shorts and a tank top (maybe TMI, but I seriously can't stand my bare nipples rubbing on the sheets).
I dress as soon as I dry off from the shower (and my clothes are already picked out and in the bathroom with me).
It makes my hubby crazy. We've been together 16+ years. You'd think I wouldn't care at this point!!

answers from San Antonio on

no way. I am much more comfortable now than I was as a teenager, but at 31, I still am not comfortable to just lounge around the house naked or sleep naked. (Who knows if my kiddo will wake up in the middle of the night and I have to go to him - naked!) I am very comfortable walking around in just undies and a tank top, which I do during breakfast with my 3 yr old, but much less than that and I am not comfortable.

No way. My tummy is a sore spot for me. I feel that I look good dressed but I am very self conscious of my stretched out tummy. I also cannot sleep unless I am in a tank top and undies. Naked just is not comfy for me.

answers from Baton Rouge on

I am quite comfortable naked.
Sometimes I feel sexy naked, and sometimes I just like the comfort of being naked. And my husband knows that my being naked is not an automatic invitation to sex. He has learned how to tell the difference between my "I want you" nakedness and just hanging around the house nakedness.

answers from Seattle on

Well, when I was little, I was ALWAYS naked. Naked, or partially dressed. My daughter is just the same way. My folks were fine with it and I got to run around the beach in my birthday suit. Thanks European family!

Then my folks divorced (10 y/o), and it was just me, my mom, and my sister (and our male dog who ate underwear). I'd shower while my sister was doing her hair, for example. She'd change while I was on the toilet. My mom would take a bath, and we'd be in and out of the bathroom asking her questions, sitting in the bathroom talking, or bugging her. It's not that we didn't deal with body image issues, it's that *nudity* didn't feel anymore or less comfortable than being dressed. That's just how we rolled.

I don't have to love the way I look, to love being naked ;-)
