Along the beach shoreline, inside a pool or just out in the open playing in the natural setting, the season is one for the proverbial “fun-in-the-sun!”
Pool!
There is one aspect of our nakedness that we as bare practitioners constantly remember: sun-sational sunscreen! The covering that we all know we can’t leave home without!
Fun-in-the-sun!
No matter who we are or what we do, when we’re enjoying nature, naturally, we need to protect ourselves from the ultraviolet sunrays that we are enjoying. Yes, it can be delightful and fun, but too long without any covering potentially can hinder our seasonal antics and cause serious health issues over time!
Before You Bare…Cover Up!
Here in the Northern Hemisphere, the Summer season doesn’t officially begin until 21 June, annually. However, the transition season of Spring is already in progress. Warmer temperatures and longer hours of daylight (sunlight) are also already upon us. As bare practitioners, our blissful dreams once again return into reality.
Aaron, my spouse, offers it best and honest. It advances our cause and needs no explanation:
“If nakedness is anticipated and/or expected it automatically loses “shock value” and instead becomes the normal, the routine. No judgment, no surprise!” ~ Aaron Michael Peterson-Poladopoulos ~ 24 August 2022
Therefore, coherent with our community and our culture, we comply with what we consider as normal and routine. That is our nakedness!
In keeping with that reality, this post entry seeks to remind us all of our health and safety, as well as the diligence and importance of the use of sunscreen. In our eagerness to get outside and frolic in the fresh air and warm sun, many of us forget one of the basic and essential rules of summer health. We all need to cover up (protect) our skin before we uncover (expose) any part or all of our body.
This entails the use of an appropriate sunscreen applied adequately (sufficient quantity), correctly (follow directions) and, when necessary, reapplied diligently. Using sunscreen allows most of us to make the most of whatever our summer plans may offer.
What should I look for in a sunscreen?
Regardless of where sun activity is happening, a private yard, ball field or court, park, trail, beach or shore, the product (sunscreen) should contain two elements for effective protection. Always look for a “broad spectrum” sunscreen that contains chemicals that block both UV-A and UV-B radiation from penetrating the skin surface.
While no product is completely waterproof, select a “water-resistant” type that is designed for long-lasting wear, especially if perspiring heavily or swimming. Choose a variation that is both easy to apply and feels good on the skin. There are numerous commercial brands available: creams, lotions, moisturizers, gels, sprays (aerosols), and solid stick types.
What Is SPF?
The initials SPF refer to sun protection factor. It is the measure of the effectiveness of the sunscreen in absorbing UV-B radiation. If someone sunburns after about 10 minutes of sun exposure, using a product of SPF15 extends the amount of time before sunburn occurs to 150 minutes or two-and-a-half hours. After this time, it should be reapplied to continue protection.
In terms of percentages, a product of SPF15 blocks 93% of the UV-B rays. One of SPF30 blocks 97% of radiation and one of SPF blocks 99%. The difference in protection may not always justify the added expense of higher SPF sunscreens.
What Is the Best Sunscreen For Me?
This depends on many factors, including age, skin type, activity, time of day, location (proximity to the Equator) and the UV index. For most skin types, a sunscreen with a minimum SPF15 is recommended. Persons with fair or lighter skin tones (all races) and low sun tolerance (burn easily) should use a SPF30. For minimal sun exposure, 90 minutes or less, a moisturizer cream may suffice (with correct SPF level). For extended periods of sun exposure and higher activity engagement, use a longer-lasting product such as a gel or lotion. Spray (aerosol or pump) are beneficial for hairy parts of the body, including arms and armpits, back, chest, legs and the pubic region. If a person is acne-prone, choose sunscreens that are oil-free or non-carnodegenic.
For persons with sensitive skin, the chemicals in some sunscreens may cause skin irritation. Use a product that contains only physical blockers (zinc oxide and titanium dioxide). A physical blocker does not penetrate the skin layers as do chemicals. Physical blockers stay on the skin surface to provide protection.
What Is the Best Way to Use Sunscreen?
If you’ve used sunscreen before and experienced sunburn, it was either applied incorrectly or it was the wrong SPF. For sunscreen to be effective, it must be in sufficient quantity, applied correctly (follow directions carefully) and thoroughly applied prior to sun exposure. It should also be reapplied when recommended by the directions. Remember the lips! Use a lip balm with a minimum SPF15.
How much?
One ounce – the equivalent of a full shot glass if mixing drinks – per adult body per application. Apply liberally all over the body, including behind the ears, on the edges of the ears and on the ear lobes. If in doubt, consult the application directions that accompanied the sunscreen.
When to apply?
At least 30 minutes before going into the sun. Reapply 15 minutes later. The extra application helps to cover body areas that may have been missed during the first application. Once in sunlight, reapply every couple of hours, especially if swimming, perspiring and/or towel drying frequently.
Who should use sunscreen?
Everyone needs skin protection. All races are susceptible to sunburn. Persons with darker skin complexions may have a higher tolerance for sun exposure but at some point will begin to experience sunburn. Bear and bare in mind that skin damage and serious complications later are the result of the failure to protect the skin.
What does the expiration date mean?
Sunscreen usually remains effective and stable for a period of three years. After the expiration date, the contents will begin to decompose and not afford the intended protection. Always check the expiration date before application. Discard any product that is past the recommended date!
African-Americans and Sunscreen:
In the Black and Hispanic communities, it’s a common misconception that their melanin-infused (darker) skin completely eliminates the necessity for sunscreen as protection. Yes, darker skin does protect from some UV rays, but all persons, no matter their skin tone, need the protection of sunscreen.
For a long time, all races believed that the darker complexions of persons of African, Hispanic and Middle Eastern ancestry/descent were fully protected from the harmful rays of the sun. Despite the fact that darker skin tones have greater genetic protection and tolerance than fairer (lighter) skin tones, everyone has a certain level of natural deficiency.
At minimum, human skin tones need at least an SPF30 for full protection from UV rays. Black people (on average) have a deficiency of about SPF17 therefore their level of melanin offers only a SPF13 level.
Concerns Regarding USA SPF Ratings?
Most consumers choose a sunscreen product based on the sun protection factor (SPF). Often selecting the higher SPF levels assuming that the level gives the best protection from the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays. In the USA, studies now prove that the domestic UV ratings are an unreliable measure of effectiveness.
An ideal sunscreen should provide equal broad-spectrum protection from both UV-A and UV-B rays. Throughout most of the globe, this is how sunscreen is rated. In the USA, however, the SPF value reflects the product UV-B ranking only.
Sunglasses Protection:
The most critical function of sunglasses is blocking ultraviolet (UV) radiation. The UV-A and UV-B sun rays damage the cornea, lens and retina of the eyes and increase the risk of cataracts, macular degeneration and photokeratitis (sunburn of the eyes).
By selecting sunglasses with 100% UV protection, polarized lenses and durable framing helps safeguard the eyes from both immediate and long-term sun damage. The use of sunglasses reduces the risk of sunscreen contact with the eyes.
Sunscreen is an important and valuable precaution in affording all of us, bare practitioners and otherwise, in the task of enjoying a healthy, productive and a very safe season of both summer and sun! Have fun and remember your sunscreen!

Phoenix Fellington, ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! bare spokes-model!
“I love being nude outside – all out in the open!” ~ Phoenix Fellington ~
The absolute truth in his own words, honesty is indeed the best policy! Thank you, Phoenix, for sharing your love with us all!
Alternate title:
The Glory of Spring! The Joy of Nakedness! The Wonders of the World!
Fresh green foliage, a beautiful day with ideal weather and everyone meeting at a local park for a…a) Spring hike; b) nature walk; c) casual stroll; d) environmental exploration? Any title (heading) for whatever is about to happen is probably appropriate as long as it doesn’t infer “formal.” After all, none of us are wearing any clothes!
But wait! No one informed us the nakedness was mandatory! Maybe “nature walk” hints that a “nature/natural” walk suggests bare but clothes free was never specifically mentioned. True, but no one gave us reason to expect that garments were required!
Honestly, a “dress code” – wardrobe – was never considered for this activity. Why bother if it isn’t a necessity? The month is May. The season is Spring. We’re all bare practitioners. Who has the inclination and the time to deal with attire? Given these conditions, if clothing is even an issue, it is convenient and safe to assume that it is optional. No additional thought is necessary!
Phoenix Fellington (center) and his hiking crew!
The mission or undertaking? An exploration, a hike, a stroll, a tour, a walk through a park. A time to leisurely absorb the splendours of the season after the barren and drab occasion of winter. An appreciation of the renewal of nature while completely natural (bare). The fewer the distractions, the better!
The ability to be us – ourselves – without any care, concern or regard as to fashion and/or style makes the hibernation routine of the winter somewhat tolerable. At least that inconvenience is now behind us for the immediate future. We can now concentrate on the present and our same gender loving (SGL) nakedness in planning our upcoming events and schedules!
Liberated from the confines of our dwelling, the adventure of new opportunities await. Our curiosity and imagination now provide the inspiration and the motivation to seek and to try! This is our well-earned reward: the Glory of Spring! the Joy of Nakedness! the wonder of Our World!
The mission in motion!
Joy of Nakedness is easily depicted by a communal walk along the trail in a park by bare practitioners. The energy involved is matched by the enthusiasm of the participants in their renude (renewed) tour of the natural world around them! As each season is different, we understand that the glory in each one contains familiar as well as novel elements!
Phoenix’s buttocks are the pair in the middle!
At the end of the adventure, a satisfied and well-earned sigh from everyone. Accompanied by the bare summary of my spouse, Aaron:
” A great day! Clothes free and fun for everyone!”
Naked hugs!

Author’s Note: The next post entry here is planned for Friday, May 8, 2026, and the proposed topic is: “Mother’s Day!”
For many of us “experienced” bare practitioners, the evolution from textile (clothed) to our nakedness is as simple as just not wearing any clothing at all! No detailed explanation is necessary, we’re merely clothes free – bare, naked, nude – and that’s it! It doesn’t require an act of parliament to recognize this fact.
Yet there are some among us who need patience, tolerance and understanding in order to evolve from fashionable (clothing) to freedom (nudity). This discrepancy is not by choice. It is simply a matter of personality and uniqueness. It is also the purpose of today’s post entry here for ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers!
Hesitant about being seen in nakedness!
The Reality:
The basic, essential and ultimate fact is there exists no determined universal standard agenda/formula/guideline/lesson plan that presents us with a guaranteed solution in resolving the issue of a) personal comfort posing and b) self confidence in our nudity. There are numerous suggestions and countless options but not one absolute perfect equation acceptable for everyone. Our similarities are endless and simultaneously, so are our differences.
Thus, the profusion of options/theories to consider, examine and explore. The choices are unlimited and new proposals appear and older offerings disappear without schedule or warning. This situation sometimes results in confusion especially when the newer ideas directly conflict the older concepts and vice versa.
Selfie pose!
Most persons posing for pictures without clothes or covering generate some consideration or hesitancy. This is natural/ordinary. The wearing of garments is a “learned” (taught) behaviour which is among the most difficult of behaviours to “un-learn.” Even the most experienced bare practitioners concede to a certain nervousness when posing for photos nude. Such is the “variety” of life and our uniqueness as individuals!
The simplest solution is to just pose naked and move forward in life. This is the coping strategy that is applicable to the vast majority. Yet there are some who have lingering anxiety about this problem. Unfortunately, there is no general resolution available.
His briefs on his head!
The Underwear Party:
Aaron, my spouse, has experience coaching (advising, instructing) and coaxing (encouraging) those exploring SGL nakedness in easing into social nudity. One method he endorses is the hosting of an “underwear party” where each participant must wear only one underwear garment. The overwhelming majority employ the customary and very traditional boxers/briefs/thongs scenario.
Underwear Party: the usual audience!
The usual approach conceals/covers the genital region and is worn 99% in the conventional manner. What is not admitted is the fact that about 6 – 8 planners of the activity wear their mandatory single underwear item on their heads – beret style!
His briefs as a hat!
When these planners enter the social gathering as a group, they receive everyone’s attention and laughter! They are immediate social “stars” and soon others are imitating their sense of style. Even those who were anxious and nervous in being completely bare in front of others! They were involved in the atmosphere of frivolity they disregarded or else forgot about their anxiety and joined in the fun! Mission accomplished!
The game of Twister!
The Twister Game:
The simple and popular game “twister” is another favourite activity according to Aaron’s experience in helping others become comfortable with social nudity. The game involves everyone being completely clothes free and then matching the body appendage (hand, foot) with a particular colour. The entanglement of the bare bodies creates the “fun” aspect of the activity.
Each game can accommodate up to four players so a number of games may be needed, depending on the anticipated attendance. The speed of the matching colour and appendage keeps the excitement and fun in focus. Fortunately, this activity can be played both indoors or outside.
Games that encourage participants to compete instead of focusing on their communal (social) nudity are very widely popular with newcomers to the bare practitioner community. The attention is directed into the activity rather than on just everyone being naked together.
More Twister!
As the “newly-nude” – nubies – begin to realize that there are opportunities for being bare that are participant involved instead of everyone just sitting around and staring at a room full of clothes free people. Nakedness is encouraged and endorsed while at the same time it is not the sole reason for the event. There is planned activity/agenda to keep everyone focused and involved.
Juggling!
Having a directed and organised theme enables the anxious and conscientious nubie that the majority of the attention of the bare practitioners will be on the actions of the competitors and participants and not solely on the bodies present. This “distraction” may not remove the concern and inhibitions of everyone but hopefully allow them to relax and begin to get comfortable in socially naked environments.
Aaron believes that any type of activity helps to reduce the nervousness and tensions that those who are newcomers may experience. Available options may include even simpler events such as charades and card games. It doesn’t require expense and extensive planning. Sometimes the familiar and the simple are the best and most enjoyed by all!
Naked hugs!

Communicating, celebrating, sharing, preserving our heritage and our life!
Earth Day was first held globally on 22 April 1970, At that time, it was official in only a handful of countries, but the public response was enormous and very encouraging. Before the end of the event, there were announced plans to hold an additional Earth Day on the same date in 1971.
Earth Day 2026: Our Power, Our Planet
“This Earth Day, people of all backgrounds and generations are called to stand shoulder to shoulder in defence of the only home we all share. Join us on Saturday, 18 April, Earth Day 22 April and throughout 2026 to take action and show your love for Planet Earth. When we stand together, our planet has a future.” ~ Earth Day website ~

There is no standard officially observed “Arbor Day.” Because of the differences in the temperatures, most events are staged relating to the weather within a particular locality. Arbor Day is customarily commemorated by an organized public tree-planting according with local needs.
The dates and times follow the regional “growing season” as determined by knowledgeable arborists and other professionals within the “arbor” (tree) community.

It isn’t magic, it is completely natural! Winter is over and Spring is here!
Happy Spring, 2026 to everyone!
Early Spring Hike!
Remember: The Springtime season does not occur instantly! Flowers will not appear overnight! Check the weather forecasts daily. Spring is time of year when temperatures vary! It may be a cold week, but Monday afternoon may deliver unseasonably pleasant and warm temperatures! A perfect day for an early Spring hike along remote secluded trails and/or properties. Plan accordingly and be prepared!
Keep an empty “carry-all” bag with you. When cooperating weather happens, strip off (remove) clothes “as-you-go!” Stuff the carry-all with your cast-offs! Enjoy the freedom of an early spontaneous Spring hike all full of your complete nakedness!
Life is an adventure! Let Spring, 2026, be an active part of yours!
Naked hugs!

I have an audience that I need to entertain! Too busy at this moment!
Strippers!
Quick! We’ve got to get rid of these useless briefs! This is ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! Wrong type of underwear!
March forward! Progress! March, the month that encourages our replenishment of ourselves and our renude (renewed) progress as both an individual, as a community and as a culture! Bare practitioners resolute in our quest for recognition and respect!
March forward! Progress! March, here in the Northern Hemisphere, is our traditional “transitional” month! Important, memorable and necessary as this is the month that marks our transition (change) from the dreadfully depressing and dull days of winter into the joys of spring!
Pace yourselves!
Due to this ecstatic progress, “March forward!” is a proverbial useless command. Some march, some run, some stroll and some saunter and then there are those clueless ones who aimlessly wander along, set in their own pace. What is critical is that we’re all moving together – in both our nakedness and also in the same direction!
March f-o-r-w-a-r-d! Trust me, no one wants to awaken tomorrow morning moving closer to winter than spring. F-o-r-w-a-r-d! Progress!
Keep your eyes open!
During this month of transition, the routine of daylight savings time (DST) occurs annually. The final result unfortunately is not any reward of extra time but simply a “gift” of longer days of sunlight due to time adjustments.
March also delivers the official arrival of the season of springtime every year! This includes our excitement about the fading frigid temperatures outside and the renewed of warmer temperatures in our natural environment! This annual event is honoured in our outdoor world with the return of foliage to our forests and woodlands as springtime blooms and blossoms all around us.
Flexing his muscles!
Here at ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! we are encouraged to practice the custom and habit of Spring Resolutions with the arrival of the rejuvenating season instead of the barren and burdensome drudgery of new year’s resolutions!
The arrival of springtime is welcoming to change and conducive to progress. The new year arrival at the onset of the winter season is merely too depressing an atmosphere!
Bare swimmers!
Bonus Reward:
The month of March also brings those of us residing in the Northern Hemisphere closer to eager arrival of the summer season and our fanciful practice of skinny dipping (swimming nude) in bodies of water offered in our natural world!
Ancient Greek warriors!
Triple Bonus Rewards!
March additionally offers the Feast of the Annunciation of the Theotokos (Mother of God)! The day that heralded the uprising against the Turkish Ottoman Empire and led to the establishment of the Kingdom of Greece by uniting the crown, the church and the state!
Naked hugs!

Author’s Note: The next post entry here is planned for Friday, March 6, 2026, and the proposed topic is: “One Year Later!”
It may not be always accepted and fully appreciated as an absolute truth, but the fact is that the common bond of our mutual nakedness – body and clothes freedom – indeed helps create and encourage friendship! Our relationship – Jay and I -is living proof that reality. We have been the epitome of this philosophy since we first met on Saturday, 3 January, 2009!
In the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, this day was the first “nude happy hour” of the new year. It was also the month of then President-Elect Barack Obama’s initial inauguration; the air was full of excitement and a welcome of change and hope following eight long years of repetition and stagnation under the retreating political administration. All of this accompanied by a balmy day with the outside temperatures into the 70s F: almost unknown for the month of January!
Now, my recollection of everything that happened on the actual date and circumstances related to our beginning our friendship could last forever as we observe this annually. For those who are curious about our meeting and then one week later encountering one another – again – and the both of us failing to recognize one another because we were textile (wearing clothes) that second time, check the two links offered here: Bare Friendships Part 1and Bare Friendships Part 2 .
Our initial meeting at the SGL social nakedness gathering, there exists a pictorial reminder/souvenir of one of the topics we discussed that day: penis fascination among gay men! Jay had this image sent to him by a friend and then showed it to me. I was intrigued and asked him to forward it to me and he did! I’ve saved it ever since and for a couple of years, it was our “signature” that we shared with one other over emails and/or texting.
Jay and Roger’s first communication “signature!”
The remarkable aspect of this early .gif image is that it is a reminder of simplyhow “normal” bare practitioner close friendships (BPF) can become! We could very well have been mistaken for “wearing clothes!”
Footnote #1: Later that summer – 2009 – when Jay and I took a day trip to a popular “nudist resort” in southern Virginia, we were limited to a day only stay. Virginia, the capital state of the former Confederacy wasn’t as progressive towards interracial friendships despite the fact that President Obama had won here that previous November!
Our “signature” picture had inspired us to attempt to be playful on that day!
Our having two prominent common denominators in our developing relationship (friendship) – being SGL and nakedness enthusiasts – are clearly potent indications of the myths that frequently happen throughout our shared community and culture. Often the assumption was made that we were “lovers” who just “fell” into friendship after our bromantic “coupling” ended.
Nevermind the fact that we have not ever shared any physical intimacy together! We’ve always remained strictly platonic and have enjoyed numerous times of fun and laughter doing so, especially when free without the heavy burden of garments!
The circumstances and the individuals involved determine the evolution path of every relationship, whether platonic or intensely erotic and passionate. There are those “authority” figures who seek to decree and/or mandate how all interactions should happen; yet, we all know that decision is conveniently, easily and often discarded, dismissed and/or ignored repeatedly time and time again!
Phoenix Fellington and friend!
In summary, no specific by-law or rule governs all friendships/bromantic SGL relationships. Guidelines and/or strong recommendations certainly exist, we all know that, but the ultimate decision rests with the persons affected – regardless of their gender/sexual affiliation and whether or not they are wearing clothes!
Footnote #2: I’m flying off to spend some time with Jay and his partner. Raheem. As 3 January this year also happens on a Saturday this year, time to be with Jay and reminisce and recollect on our friendship (very best friendship) anniversary! Perhaps we’ll have time to recapture our imitation of the elephant (penis twirl) again! Raheem can operate the camera!
Naked hugs!

Why SGL Adult Film Actors Illustrate ReNudePride: Guys Without Boxers!
Prologue:
One of the major purposes/reasons that my spouse, Aaron, and I launched this site, ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! was to create, designate and offer a safe space (blog) where same gender loving – SGL – persons who enjoy nakedness (clothes freedom) could experience, feel, identify and sincerely be themselves. One obvious tool of sharing a receptive and welcoming atmosphere is to offer a comfortable environment where our nakedness and our sexuality is the common bond that enables us all to relate to “home.”
The “header” image (above) proves that our life philosophy as bare practitioners (bisexual or gay naturists/nudists) is definitely not a recent phenomenon (occurrence). From the hairstyles of the subjects, the vintage picture posted above is from the late 1950s/early 1960s. We were actually around before the Stonewall Inn riots (SIR) took place in 1969!
The obvious message from the header is that we’re SGL and we’re clothes free! Not only “back-in-the-day” when the picture was photographed. The .gif image below reinforces the fact that we’re still the same today!
Introduction:
In an effort to provide a comfortable, familiar and relaxing space for our fellow bare practitioners, Aaron and I believe that we should illustrate and represent us with what and who we truly are: our bodies and ourselves! In order to accomplish this task, we feature depictions of us – SGL nakedness – without any embarrassment, guilt or shame. As stated in the first posting entry of this series, we don’t feature engaging in our physical intimacy, but we do honour our awareness of our same gender anatomy and our same gender attractions.
Our being honest does not demand us being evasive. Only the truth will set us all free!
Purpose:
One concern/issue that is often posed is why publish photos of professional adult actors here? Are we recruiting future “gay porn stars?” Are we “promoting pornography?” Are we endorsing a career?
No! We are not endorsing, promoting nor recruiting for the SGL adult film industry studios nor are we encouraging sexual behaviour. The photographic illustrations accompanying this post entry here show the aspect of truth. As bisexual or gay, the male penis for many of us is an anatomical reality of interest – curiosity and wonder. We accept that fact and then we move on.
Acknowledging what we know and facing that challenge is a valid component of what and who we are is, in our opinion, better than ignoring it and pretending it goes away!
We developed this site in the hope that we all, as bare practitioners, experience a dream where we just simply celebrate in a place that allowed us, as a community and as a culture, to just be ourselves! A haven of happiness, harmony and hope!
Footnote #1:In at least one (1) of the future post entries developed for this Bare Celebrities series here on ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! there will be another focus offered on the penis. That will be apparent for all when it is published. The reason for the inclusion of these images and the introduction of the penis anatomical topic at this phase of the seriespublication may necessitate this notation and reminder of this fact here at this time.
Justifications:
Probably one of the major essentials of being a successful and sought after SGL adult film industry “super-star” (extraordinary performer) is confidence and pride being publicly identified and recognized as a bisexual or gay man and extreme acceptance and comfort in nakedness (without clothing) – especially in being the only person fully nude in a studio full of support staff, all of whom are completely dressed!
In order to perform in an SGL adult film career, embarrassment, guilty, excessive modesty and/or shame is not compatible! Essentially, one is awarded a role that requires simply two simple talents: nudity and sex.
The professional actors who excel in this very specific industry, hired as such my executives who crave (desire) the action depicted and who emotionally and financially depend on the financial rewards afforded by this type of employment.
As performers in this industry, their male anatomy (penis) is one of their job assets and responsibilities. Due to it being an absolute necessity for employment, the professional actor has no obsessive or underlying need to be constantly or excessively flamboyant about their possession of this particular attribute nor are they driven to flaunt it endlessly.
Contemplating today’s post entry!
For this reason, professionals are ideal subjects for “photo-shoots” (photography sessions) – posing – where their erection (excited anatomy) is not the featured or focused object/subject. This allows them the ability to take one proverbial step away from their job essential status and become their natural, “playful” and relaxed self all with their preferred nakedness and in an environment accepting of their SGL attraction.
The result of this situation is the plethora of pictures created by professional photographers (paid by the studios) featuring the casual and playful actors in various situations not requiring their erections at full potential! A totally different promotional picture session than the routine!
The engagement of those who are experienced and familiar with the needs and skills of posing as camera subjects offers all viewers with pictures that provide better content and quality. These enhance reality and understanding. They also provide identity and recognition.
The availability of the photos offered is free online and financed by the film industry studios. This access increases the sales of the particular sales of the items offered and this increases the studio’s income (profits)! It benefits everyone involved! Admittedly, Aaron and I both enjoy the ability to view these images although at times it does test patience!
Another, slightly less prominent justification for the use of seasoned performers is that the majority of those are indeed bare practitioners (SGL nakedness) so they instinctively are aware what captures the immediate attention of those of similar identification. They also know what information persons seek and where these interests proceed. So the professionals, in order to both increase their audience base and to reward their loyalty are more than happy to at least respond to any legitimate request.
Footnote #2: Bare Celebrities #3! is already in draft format and will be published soon!
Naked hugs!

Author’s Note: The next post entry here is planned for Monday, November 10, 2025, and the proposed topic is: “Armistice Day/Remembrance Day!”
For years, the official name of the October federal (national) holiday was always “Columbus Day” – honouring Christopher Columbus, the Italian navigator/sailor who led the naval expedition to discover a new route to India and the East Indies from Spain. In attempting doing this task, he “discovered” the New World.
The legends surrounding Columbus sailing the Atlantic searching for a more timely/ faster route to the Far East often led people to believe that the new lands were barren and uninhabited – how else could he discover them? Also, as his day was supposedly a “national” holiday in the USA, where in this country did he land? He was an Italian sailing for the King and Queen of Spain. How did he rate a USA holiday?
Even more confusing, why was there no national holiday honouring the peoples who already lived in this newly “discovered” land? In addition, the Norse Vikings had previously established settlements along the coasts of what is now Canada. These settlers predated Columbus by more than a century.
Too much credit was given to Christopher Columbus for tasks not in his original mission. Also, successive Italian immigrants to this New World celebrated Columbus as the “godfather” of the New World. If not for his voyages, there would have been no deluge of immigrants from Europe into these new lands! The entire history of the whole world would be altered.
Indigenous= native!
All the attention and praise on the accomplishments of Columbus and the immigrants who stole the land of all the native peoples residing in this “new world!” No one bothered to offer the disastrous impact of the enormous slave trade or the ravages of imported diseases on the inhabitants of the Caribbean islands and both the northern and southern continents.
Wherever the European immigrants settled, the indigenous populations within that area were subject to the bias of the newcomers and their discrimination against the local natives. After all, they were bringing “civilisation” to this savage land!
Their civilized import prevailed, and this country began to celebrate “Columbus Day” exclusively. It remained that way until the people started to realize that we’re not giving any recognition to the earlier inhabitants here who preserved the lands, the livestock and the environment that thrived until immigration began.
Beginning in the early years of the 21st century, calendars are now listing the traditional “Columbus Day” holiday as “Columbus Day/Indigenous People’s Day.” Currently, calendars are now printed listing only the Indigenous People’s Day designation. Since Christopher Columbus didn’t actually “discover” a New World, he no longer needs a special honour. As the Italian people didn’t sponsor his voyages to the west, they made no contribution in exploring the new shores.
On this day, it is especially important to remember to honour, salute and pay tribute to the Indigenous Peoples of this site, ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! A very special commendation to allbare practitioners!
Happy Indigenous People’s Day to everyone! We’re all indigenous to some region on this planet!
Naked hugs!
