An online journal celebrating the joys of living bare with pride! This site usually publishes every Monday and Friday. I may be irreverent but I am no way irrelevant! My preferred personal pronouns are he, him, his.
A sign of the upcoming holiday times that are rapidly approaching. As the various cultures and religions have varied reasons for celebrating, today’s image offers an opportunity to express “seasonal delights” of bare practitioners adorning themselves for a festive and fun championing of of clothes freedom for all to enjoy!
Without featuring a particular culture or religion, the intent is to represent the theme of ReNude Pride, the universality of nudity and the glorification of all of our joy in body freedom!
A holiday smile!
Naked hugs!

The last day of November is another reason to celebrate our buttocks and to admire the anatomical delight of the buttocks of all of those surrounding us! Nature has endowed all of us with this spectacular body part: share it and be proud!
The Shoneye Twins in London, UK!
Practically all of us who live in the Northern Hemisphere have to hibernate indoors during this month, it doesn’t mean we have to conceal our booties (affectionate term for buttocks)!
Bottoms-up! in the sunshine!
Those of our bare practitioner culture residing in the Southern Hemisphere are admirably and proudly displaying their glory in the openness of the natural world all around them!
A full Bottoms-up! circle!
No matter where we live, the last day of the month is always a time to bare ourselves and let our bodies dance in jubilation and our buttocks encircle one another!
Our pride in our buttocks isn’t restricted to being on land only!
Remember: a guy without boxers isn’t clothes free for no apparent reason! Bottoms-Up!
Naked hugs!

If you have not already voted, please remember to do so tomorrow, Tuesday, November 8, 2022.
All 435 members of the House of Representatives face voting and 35 members of the Senate are in competition. Various state and municipal elected positions are also on ballots. Make your decision!
Before casting your decision, please explore all options on candidates and proposed agendas. Align your electoral choices to ensure they are comparable to our communities and our culture!
Hopefully, this will someday be an election option!
The earth slowly begins the hemispheric shift of the sun’s rays from north to south now. Time to offer a gentle reminder to us all on the value of sunscreen – no matter where we live or what season we’re involved. A little effort enhances the health and safety of ourselves and our skin! A minimum effort now helps to prevent endless pain and suffering (or worse) in the future!
Sunscreen is for everyone!
A common misconception is that sunscreen is only beneficial for light-skinned – Caucasian – people. It has been proven time and time again that sunscreen is essential for all races of humanity. One person’s skin tone does not make her/him immune to skin cancer or skin disease. We are all susceptible and vulnerable, although our individual levels of tolerance may vary.
Applying sunscreen!
Rather than re-enter my current post entry on proper sunscreen use and recommendations again, I’m linking that posting here. To access, click to following title and review and refresh knowledge and memory:
One common myth that persists about sunscreen use is that it is only needed to be applied during the summer. The proven medical and scientific determination is that sunscreen is vital whenever we are exposed to the sun’s rays, no matter the season of the year. The radiation intensity of sunlight occurs all year long.
Living in the east coast mid-Atlantic region of the USA, Aaron and I are sunscreen users when in winter as well as summer. Our skin quality deserves more than just a summertime attention!

Congratulations to everyone living in the Southern Hemisphere! Your time for the warmth of the sunshine and the agreeable outdoor weather temperatures has now begun! Strip off all those burdensome clothing items and greet the day with both joy and pride.
We bare practitioners know all-too-well the splendour that awaits you in the upcoming seasons. Survey your balcony as you plan on how you’ll decorate the space this time of year. Enjoy your naked freedom!
A balcony profile!
This is the first day of the new season so bask away in anticipation. You’ve waited for this day to arrive so make certain you appreciate every moment given to you! Trust me, the time passes-by all-too-quickly!
Relax and enjoy your new season and day!
You have the entire season ahead of you – just remember not to waste any time dressed in clothing or worrying about that others may think of your nakedness or your sexuality. Be proud! Be yourself! Be happy!
Naked hugs!

Today marks the official beginning of the Summer of 2022! Whenever possible, remember to bare yourself and skinny-dip for all you’re worth. We know that this eventful season doesn’t last forever and the days somehow manage to fly past us! Lose the clothes and grab the sunscreen and have fun while you can!
Where there’s water, strip and skinny-dip!
The beach, a man-made pool, a lake, a river, relax and refresh – stay cool! This is the time for “fun-in-the-sun” so make every day productive! Autumn and cooler weather approaches all to soon!
Summer greetings!
For a great number of us, summer and skinny-dipping are synonymous. It is almost impossible to imagine one without the other. Those of us who advocate and embrace body and clothes freedom, this connection is – well – natural and understandable.
Classic skinny-dipping image!
However, to be fair and impartial, ReNude Pride acknowledges and respects that not all of us are aquatically oriented. There are bare practitioner enthusiasts who have absolutely no appreciation, desire or inclination to skinny-dip. To everyone, their own choosing! All of us have our own preferences for fun and pleasure.
A very happy and safe Summer, 2022, wish to everyone!
Naked hugs!

Not everyone has the luxury of baring themselves completely and observing bottoms-up! day totally “in the buff!” Kory Mitchell, in today’s opening photograph proudly presents us all with an option of exposing our derriere while remaining legally clothed. Whatever your situation, there are options for participating in bottoms-up!
Embracing buttocks!
Our men in the above image have no qualms about interlocking themselves in an embrace while celebrating their totally natural bodies close together!
Buttocks pyramid!
With Victoria Day (Canada) and Memorial Day (USA) both now behind us, summer has unofficially begun throughout North America. “Welcome back” is currently the expected greeting shared with the abundance of booties (buttocks) visible throughout this continent!
Floating in water!
Skinny-dipping (swimming naked) popularity multiplies and with it the return of bottoms-up scenery!
Outdoor grilling!
Outdoor chefs offer a variety of menu selections . “What’s your pleasure, sir?” isfrequently asked as the waitperson approaches to take your meal order!
Bare your buttocks in honour of bottoms-up!
Naked hugs!

I’m slowly beginning to heal (recuperate) from a horrible recent infection of influenza! I honestly can’t remember feeling this bad and debilitated! Two weeks out of the classroom has made me feel extremely vulnerable!
Hopefully, with each passing day, I’ll be back in control and soon!
Naked hugs (at arm’s length)!

As same gender loving (SGL) men, my spouse, Aaron, and I are both impressed by the commitment and dedication of the late archbishop to the equality of all people. At a time when few – if any – contemporary African leaders even acknowledge our community’s existence, the bold and brave Anglican (Church of England) clergyman publicly and repeatedly espoused the inclusion of gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and queer + (GLBTQ+) people into his agenda and messages. A most definite historical and notable accomplishment for any contemporary African icon.
In all the world, at that time, relatively few world leaders publicly joined in his efforts for inclusion. GLBTQ+ people were not deemed worthy of anyone’s political career or of the call for equal rights.
Archbishop Desmond Tutu and H.M. Queen Elizabeth II.
When aparthied (the legally enforced separation of the races) officially ceased to exist and democracy went into effect in South Africa in the 1990’s, it became the only country on the African continent to constitutionally guarantee and recognize the existence and the human rights of GLBTQ+ populations. This remarkable distinction is primarily the result of the extraordinary leadership of the ecclesiastical Desmond Tutu.
Honesty!
In the English language, there are numerous words that begin with the letter “F.” Some are polite, some are profane, some are descriptive and others are derogatory. There are those words that are simple and need no explanation and then there are those words that are so complex that volumes are required to deliver the meaning. Archbishop Desmond Tutu is indeed truly fortunate. There are three words that commence with the letter “F” that offer to all of humanity an accurate summation of his ideals and his life: Fairness, Foresight, Forgiveness.
Thank you, Desmond Tutu, for your exemplary example! Outstanding job: a lesson well taught!
Naked hugs!
