A smiling pumpkin face adorning his buttocks! A Halloween greeting from both Aaron, my spouse, and I to all of you! We’re not really enthusiastic Halloween celebrants, but we both know that many bare practitioners are excited about this particular occasion. Our best wishes to all of you!
A “live” pumpkin parade stalking down this special sidewalk! They’re both offering their complete nakedness along with their seasonal masks! Fortunately, this special season encourages us all to conceal our identities and to have fun and a good time!
He’s adorned himself as a “pumpkin head!” No other disguise is necessary as his bare practitioner affiliation is confirmed and duly noted by us all! All Halloween guests beware: his pumpkin ghost has yet to appear!
Flying through the air with the greatest haunting breeze available! His pumpkin adorns his backpack as his broom transports him from one Halloween event to another!
Have a happy and safe Halloween!
Naked hugs!

Strippers!
Halloween is naked on the beach and all along the shore!
In preparation of the upcoming Halloween observance (31 October, annually) a look at suggestions to retain our bare practitioner identity and still appear a part of the Halloween social custom.The Halloween season provides an opportunity for costumed social gatherings and this upcoming weekend, which is the final weekend before the occasion happens is time for many to host their own costumed events!
Halloween is traditionally a time for costume wearing and fun. Nonsensical spirited occasion that emerged as the general population sought a means to escape the western churches custom of honouring the deceased on All Soul’s Day and All Saint’s Day – the goodness of humanity and the sacredness of human life. The costume culture grew in popularity as persons sought ways to anonymously express themselves in a way that originally would keep them free from reproach.
This soon became associated with both horror and humour as well as frightening others into avoiding evil actions by the offering of treats (candies) to “save” their souls (well-being). It is now an obsession in many communities as participants vie to represent terror and life-threatening instances that often reflect crime and tortuous enterprising instead of humour, fantasy and fun!
The elaborate costuming now offers another fashion trend that encourages revelers to continue to conceal or to “cover-up” their bodies beneath these extravagant costumes. Many argue that this presents an ideal situation for bare practitioners to celebrate being themselves by hiding their nakedness and joining in the frivolous fun of adorning ourselves with the fabulous costumes!
Since a majority of us of the body and clothes freedom community must comply with “dress” (clothes wearing) codes on a daily basis for legal and professional compliance, the use of a costume – especially in a social engagement – is a most inconvenient and restrictive reminder of our repetitive surrender of our joy of our nakedness. Conformity too often is oppression magnified and extremely frustrating!
My spouse, Aaron, and I offer this post entry here on ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! in an effort to enlighten the Halloween enthusiasts among our bare practitioner community and culture these alternative options and possibilities for their horrific and specific pleasure. The trio of “the wild man” (cave man) clubber offered in the introduction of this posting involves the body painting of our nudity without concealing or disguising our pride and pleasure in our nakedness.
We’re employing colour and imagination in addition to enjoying, promoting and relaxing in our nakedness! A live testimony to our creativity and to our social nature! Using these depictions as an example, we encourage all to mimic (copy) this scenario or to improvise with a more personal favourite! The body painting featured here requires the material body paint but does not require intense artistic skill!
Another idea is the utilization of body paint in the designing of a message that proclaims our confidence in our bare practitioner status and our natural (naked) state-of-being! Announcing our enthusiasm and joy in our public display of our body and of ourselves! Simply: us being us! Join with us in our clothes freedom! Join with us and receive your due reward: a kiss!
While the body paint remains available, we can focus attention on our natural freedom and commemorate our natural (anatomical) ability to flaunt our disregard for conformity and a restrictive society! We can embrace our origin! We all entered this world without guilt or shame, why should we even be bothered by any false sense of embarrassment now?
The plentiful supply of body paint during this Halloween time of the year allows us to decorate ourselves with the colours of our rainbow heritage and incorporate not only our comfort in our nakedness but our pride in our same gender loving (SGL) character as well!
As authentic bare practitioners, we are equally comprised of the benefits of our clothes freedom and our sexuality heritages!
Essentially, we’re all qualified as Guys Without Boxers! no matter what style of underwear we prefer – or if we wear any at all! Our contentment, happiness and satisfaction is exemplified in our basic celebration of us being ourselves: nakedness and same gender loving!
Naked hugs!

For the remainder of this month, October, there will be some minor variations in the publishing schedule here at ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! This is due to the additional professional responsibilities that I have been assigned and a professional conference that I must attend – I am actually presenting a workshop for attendees that lasts three days. Actually, that conference is in November, so please be attentive to the upcoming publication announcements at the conclusion of each post entry!
What is today?
Columbus Day:
Legislation to create Columbus Day as a federal holiday was signed by then-president Lyndon Baines Johnson on 28 June 1968, to be effective beginning in 1971. It became part of the Monday holiday observance and is now traditionally the second Monday in October. As a federal holiday, it is observed by the USA government but it is not binding in all states.
The honouring of the holiday is declining throughout the country and is rapidly being replaced by IndigenousPeople’s Day. This commemoration pays tribute to the original people living here and who have no recognition for the hardships and suffering they endured once the Europeans began immigration here.
Many municipalities have begun dismantling statues erected of Columbus. For years he was credited with “discovering” when actually he merely landed here after the Vikings had visited and settled here centuries earlier.
Happy Indigenous People’s Day!
Naked hugs!

Author’s Note: The next post entry here is planned for Thursday, October 15, 2026, and the Proposed topic is: “Spirit Day, 2026!”
This observance was originally designed to encourage all to confidently, honestly, openly and proudly acknowledge their sexuality (sexual orientation)!
Recently, some bare practitioners have adopted elements of this strategy for urging all to acknowledge their affinity for nakedness!
It really makes little or no difference the reasoning for our “coming out!” What is important is the message that we share with others. We are accepting and are comfortable with being the person that we truly are regardless of what we may or may not be wearing or who we really are attracted to or love.
National Coming Out Day (NCOD) is a gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and queer + (GLBTQ+) awareness day in support of all persons being honestly, openly and publicly what and who they really are without any embarrassment, fear, guilt and/or shame!
The original concept of National Coming Out Day was to make the personal identity a very political identity! The emphasis being that the basic form of activism as everyone “coming out” (acknowledging) their sexual orientation to family, friends and colleagues and living life as a confident bisexual, gay or lesbian person.
The term “coming out” references that for generations the GLBTQ+ community has lived “in the closet” (secretly) in order to avoid arrest and punishment (or worse). “Coming out” meant going public, tearing open the proverbial closet door!
Remember: closets are for clothes, only!
The fact that homophobia (fear of same gender loving persons) thrives in an atmosphere of distrust, fear, ignorance, and silence encourages separation between “us” and “them.” Once people learned that they have loved ones and friends who are GLBTQ+ they are less likely and less willing to remain associated with persons who are homophobic and/or have repressive inclinations. Instead, they become more accepting, tolerant and understanding.
Why the 11 October date?
The first observance of National Coming Out Day was the actual first anniversary of the 1987 March on Washington for Gay and Lesbian Civil Rights. It was the first-ever massive gathering of bisexual, gay, and lesbian people in the nation’s capital!
The date also marked the first public display of the NAMES Project AIDS Memorial Quilt – in its entirety! This display took place on the National Mall between the U.S. Capital and the White House.
First NCOD Logo designed by Keith Haring!
Keith Haring
4 May 1958 – 16 February 1990
Keith Haring was an American graffiti artist who designed the classic icon for the very first National Coming Out Day (above). His pop art emerged in New York City subculture in the 1980s. Haring was openly gay and a frequent message in his early art was safe sex. He was diagnosed with HIV in 1984 and with AIDS in the autumn of 1988. During the last years of his life he used his art to generate activism and awareness about HIV/AIDS.
Remember to Remind!
For those of us who have already boldly and with courage identified ourselves as GLBTQ+ community and culture, today, as National Coming Out Day is a prime opportunity for us all to publicly renew (renude) our identity. We can remind others of our comfort and satisfaction in being ourselves within the community and culture to which we belong. Wave a rainbow banner, wear a GLBTQ+ T-shirt and/or support a GLBTQ+ business. Our day to confidently show our affiliation!
If our nakedness is an equal component of what and who we are, we can body paint or otherwise adorn our skin with exposing our confidence and pride in our uniqueness! Our celebration has no hesitation and no limits!
As for advocating for us all to “come out” in our nakedness, nothing surpasses our being bare – without clothes! Our state of body and clothes freedom proclaims itself without any language or words necessary! Likewise, the theme, “closets are for clothes” is both applicable and appropriate in promoting nudity as it is in announcing our GLBTQ+ identity!
As bare practitioners, we have a distinct advantage in bestowing equality to our coming out observance. Appearing in our nakedness with our GLBTQ+ identity body painted, written or otherwise publicly visible leaves no doubt in anyone’s mind as to how or where we owe our affinity and/or allegience!
Naked hugs!

As of this posting, I am implementing the above image as the official “header” (opening) of the Bottoms-Up! monthly postings series here on ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! A nice pair of buttocks to view on a monthly basis!
Buttocks bid good-bye to summer, 2026!
This is the end of the month that also coincides with the end of the summertime here in the Northern Hemisphere! So as we offer farewell to the passing season, we do it as memorable as possible, with our bottoms-up salute!
A bottoms-up novel!
Our days along the sandy shores won’t last forever, so many make every fleeting moment worth every effort!
Aquatic buttocks!
He’s skinny-dipping for fun as well as for celebrating this remarkable bottoms-up! occasion! Nice pose, amigo! Gracias!
Automobile exit!
Our anatomical “bottom” has – at last – arrived on the scene! Let the world know another pair of buttocks are now on location!
Outdoor shower!
Taking advantage of the moderate weather temperatures now that the autumn of 2026 has officially arrived in the Northern Hemisphere!
Be brave, be bold and be bottoms-up!

Author’s Note: The next post entry is planned for here, tomorrow, October 1, 2026, and the proposed topic is: “USA: Our History Month!”
Our contenders for today’s post entry offering here on ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! are both from the erotic and gigantic empire of Brazil. Their geographical location is by no means the sole detail they have in common. Both are open and proud same-gender loving (SGL); they have no problems with their disdain for any item that even hints at concealing their preference for nakedness, and they both have the honor of an identical first name: Felipe Ferreira (above left) and Philipe Coutinho (above right). Please note the different spellings in their first names in their native Portuguese language for their individual identities.
In this particular series examining their mutual dedication to the masculinity of the art of foreplay (intimacy prior to actual sexual engagement), Coutinho and Ferreira also proudly exhibit another bold and unique aspect of their clothes freedom allegiance. Both of them have confidence in publicly representing an unusual – especially in contemporary culture – appreciation and respect for their natural body hair!
In the above image, both passionately demonstrate for all their open and guilt-free assertion of their bromantic commitment and man-to-man belief and nature.
Philipe Coutinho (left) and Felipe Ferreira (right)!
In this second image of this Foreplay series, Felipe steps behind Philipe as they model their shared sexual versatility (flexibility) of their sexual roles. Philipe shamelessly assumes the beta (surrendering) positioning while affording Felipe ready access as the alpha (penetrating) partner in this relationship. Both men remain fluid in their sexual roles and nonjudgmental in conveying comfort, honesty and pleasure.
The familiarity and similarity of the duo with their versatility in sexuality (positions) they fulfill is a rarely noted attribute. The ease and relaxation they deliver is evident whenever they appear together and/or separately. It is clear they are two remarkably unabashed (free from all and/or any guilt or shame) from their celebrated tasks. It is obvious why they both qualify for the distinguished designation “celebrity!”
As referenced previously in this posting, Philipe in this second depiction of this series provides us a viewing of his sparse but completely natural growth of his chest hair. While his nipples are fondled by Felipe he affords his gratification of being a “man’s man!” We also get a glimpse of his sparse underarm fur!
Oral suction: Felipe (left) and Philipe (right)!
These final two offerings in this Foreplay series indicate still another common trait to both Felipe/Philipe: the male nipple. It presents a source of desire and fulfillment. It is an anatomical equalizer that is experienced by Coutinho/Ferreira in particular and us all in general. In the depiction directly above, Felipe’s nipple portrays the physical reaction to Philipe’s tongue while Philipe’s lips and focus reveal his oral desire. It is all natural and completely good!
The publishing here of Bare Celebrity Series#11: Brazilian Foreplay! serves two distinct purposes featuring two exciting and pleasing contender/actors. Primarily, it totally dispels the stereotypical assumption that all nakedness enacted is exclusively full frontal and completely pornographic. Secondly, it proves that bare can be implied and fairly represented without being completely graphic and visible. In other words, it doesn’t have to be an erection all the time! SGL isn’t always too real for a mature audience.
Philipe Coutinho’s chest hair is included in this series. Felipe’s natural body hair is offered under the second signature option (Francois) below the author’s notation.
A special mention of appreciation and gratitude is extended to both Philipe Coutinho and Felipe Ferreira here at this time on behalf of all of us at ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! Congratulations to you both!
Naked hugs!

As announced above, proof that our “other” Felipe does permit his body to benatural! A viewing of Felipe Ferreira’s body hair:
His pubic hair!
His hairy armpit!
And to prove that we are supporters of equality, a “bonus” view of Philipe Coutinho’s face and chest fur!
As a confirmed, devoted and loyal bare practitioner – by birth and by choice – it is an accepted and expected fact that Alex, my identical twin brother and I swim nude (skinny-dip). Neither one of us have a reason to discard, dispute and/or ignore this established reality of our lives. The same applies to both my spouse, Aaron and myself! This proverbial apple did not fall too far from the original tree! No benefit, incentive or reward is offered so why even bother to change!
As we observe the final official (recognized) weekend of the 2026 summer season here in the Northern Hemisphere, aquatic indulgence is compatible, convenient in addition to being also fun and healthy! This time of the year is ending now so enjoy very much what time we have remaining!
A weekend of wetness – of experiencing the exciting freedom of being all natural in our nakedness in full view of both nature and the sun – is an applicable and appropriate commemoration of the end of summer. An amazing and awesome means to bid a fond farewell (good-bye) to the season!
The location of our salutation to summer makes no difference. Either a natural body of water (lake, ocean, river, etc.) or a man-made creation (canal, pool or landscaped into) is all good. It keeps us cool and wet!
Of course, we all know that the weather transition from summer to autumn isn’t dramatic and instantaneous. It is gradual and tranquil. There are some days with ample opportunity to skinny-dip (swim naked) still ahead. Fortunately, that is the exclusive advantage of being able to go skinny-dipping – it is completely spontaneous and requires no attire! Nakedness only! In the official records, however, it will no longer occur within the designation of summer.
Thank you, summer of 2026, for all the memories and times of frolic, fun, happiness, sand, sun, surf and waves! They will remain within our hearts and minds for many years to come!
A happy and safe last weekend of summer to everyone here! Get yourself outside if possible and enjoy!
Naked hugs!

Stripping!
Everyone is anxious to skinny-dip for one more time this summer!
Believe it or not, we – residing in the Northern Hemisphere – are now entering into our very last (final) full week of the summer of 2026! As dedicated and loyal bare practitioners, Aaron, my spouse, and I are never really ready to surrender our summer, but we are powerless to alter the environment. The end result is that we suffer the extremes just like everyone else!
Like the rest of our neighbours, we face the enforced rigors of being confined to the undue hardship of restrictions of weather and less enjoyable temperatures. This is our period of captivity in a minimally hospitable environment!
Locked into captivity!
Unfortunately, Aaron and I lack the financial resources to blindly follow the earth’s hemispheric migration with the sun. Our option is to live as we must within our budget and enjoy nakedness – inside or outside – whenever we can!
Physical punishment!
Footnote #1: Despite being held against our will, the thought of clothes-free captivity does present a somewhat advantageous option, especially regarding the possibility of having the renowned Sean Xavier (Kyle Overton) as our guardian!
Sean Xavier as our guardian!
As personally appealing as Sean Xavier may be, his reign as our enforcer is fraught with discomfort and frustration! The removal of our freedom without covering must be endured throughout what remains of this year!
Therefore, what time we have during this brief week of summer, we plan to expend as much effort and energy as possible to liven and thrill our days ahead! The future springtime is a long time way!
Skinny dipping (swimming naked)!
Sunbathing together!
Gaming bare, without a care!
Nude adventures and exploration!
Bare at the grille: nude nutrition!
Indulging in a nakedness treat!
So, this week will be short and busy with plenty of fun for all! The time will pass quickly then we’ll have memories to share – with dreams to renew! Those cold winter days while seeming endless and cruel need our dreams and our memories as fuel to explore!
Captured again!
Suddenly, the reality of captivity isn’t as strenuous as it initially appeared. After our indulging in our prospects for the upcoming week, this time period doesn’t seem so confining and bleak! Additionally, there is another consoling thought. Even during the winter, we can always be bare when inside our home!
Bare practitioners inside a hotel room!
Naked hugs!

The first Monday of the month of September, annually, is the national Labour Day holiday!
The idea of the recognition of “Labour Day” as an official U.S. holiday grew in the late 19th century along with the expansion and growth of the trade union and labour movements. It was first observed as a national holiday in 1894.
In the USA, a holiday caled Labour Day was first proposed for the month of September in the early 1880s. By the time the national observance began, it was a holiday in 30 states.
Kory Mitchell: more construction equipment!
The initial holiday proposals focused on the manual labour force, primarily on those who physically performed the tasks in the growing field. The early national observances concerned those who were employed in the national workforce. It had little affiliation with private industry.
The recognition and honouring of the entire workforce, both private and public sectors, evolved with the expansion of the industry especially during the involvement of both world wars and afterwards.
During the 1950s and1960s, the attention to the entire workforce, every worker, no matter the type of work engaged in, became the central focal point of the observance.
Kory Mitchell: ladder!
Here on ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! I generally illustrate my postings with images featuring retired same gender loving film star, Kory Mitchell. Foremost, because he’s very photogenic and frequently appears in pictures depicting working situations. Also, because he gives his time in promoting HIV/AIDS prevention messages not only to his fellow actors but to the general public, too! Keep up the good work, Kory!
Happy Labour Day to all!

Before I create any more confusion than normal, let me inform you that this is an artist’s rendition of a campus lecture hall at university. It is not an accurate illustration of a class that I instruct. Yes, I most definitely would gladly preside with enthusiasm over a class of bare practitioners! Unfortunately, the policies and procedures of my university do not permit clothing optional allowances.
I wanted to address this now and avoid any misunderstanding. I have to wear clothes while at work as do the vast majority of people.
Mathematical instruction!
Currently:
I am totally unaware of any private or public university that allows clothing optional practices. I know that I am not the sole person who would engage in such endeavours, unfortunately, they simply do not exist. We all must comply with the clothes requirements of the social majority!
However, there always remains the hope that equality and freedom will bring about relief – and soon!
Stripping!
Until that remarkable awakening happens, it remains the typical educational component for us all. Classes resumed from the summer break on 31 August this year. For our current autumn semester, I am teaching one class more than ordinary. It represents an attempt at my school of instruction to reintroduce a broadening of our curriculum that was abandoned several years ago due to a budgetary restriction.
I was excited over this renude (renewed) effort this past spring when it was announced. Now that the reintroduction is underway, the pace is slowing somewhat and I’m uncertain if the reintroduction will be successful. All that can be done will happen and maybe the change will generate enthusiasm.
One positive notation, my extra class is now in this current semester. That means that this spring, I’ll return to my normal schedule for classes. An ideal way to welcome in the summer of 2027!
This first full week of instruction leads us into a national three-day holiday weekend. The second week of instruction isa four-day work week! Not a bad way to start off the autumn schedule!
Naked hugs!
