Today is the last day of the month of September, 2025. In the Northern Hemisphere, summer is officially finished and autumn has arrived! Above, the group is enjoying one last effort to collectively and communally share all their bottoms-up outdoors before the dreary and frigid days return!
A bottoms-up! line-up before winter arrives!
The communal commemoration of visible buttocks is engaged in all over the world and by all peoples residing throughout the globe!
Teasing with his buttocks!
Above, our model wants to assure every one of us that he is providing a barrier-free view of his bottoms-up! contribution!
Bottoms-up! exposure!
In a hurry, lack of time to remove all their clothing, this duo above simple grab their shorts and drop their waistline in order to pose for today’s bottoms-up! post entry! At least they tried to make the deadline!
Bottoms-Up! discipline!
For whatever the reason, our man above has his buttocks slapped as his duly deserved consequence for his most recent infraction!
Summer’s end: skinny-dipping!
Summer of 2025 has officially ended! In honour of this transition period between summer and autumn, our bald friend above celebrates with a skinny-dipping venture before the outdoor temperatures drop too low!
Naked hugs!

Since my last posting here, Bare/Dare Series, 2025! #3, the season of autumn has arrived in the Northern Hemisphere. No surprise that this happened. I’m certain the majority are probably now wondering: Doesn’t that fool know that autumn always follow summer?
Yes! This fool (myself) does indeed have that knowledge! However, it has only been recently (since I first met Aaron, my spouse) that I’ve received the ability to accept and embrace that change and positively proceed with life!
Prior to 2010 (the year that Aaron and I met, were attracted to each other, fell in love and then moved together under the same roof), I was unable to acknowledge the last of summertime and the start of autumn without offering a manual monologue (sign language) of profanities! I was so addicted and obsessed with summer and being comfortable that I reacted to the seasonal transition in an outrage followed by a major period of depression and frustration!
I publicly acknowledge and admit to my severe shortcoming regarding this issue. I also want to thank Aaron for patiently teaching me the prayer attributed to St. Francis of Assisi:
“Lord, grant me the ability to change what I can; the ability to accept what I cannot change; and the wisdom to know the difference!” ~ St. Francis of Assisi ~
Aaron, I’m grateful for your sharing of your Roman Catholic faith and encouraging my adherence to this prayer!
Thank you, Aaron! Happy autumn to all!
Naked hugs!

A brief and happy reminder of the visual delight and joy that the now rapidly evaporating Summer of 2025 (for those of us living in the Northern Hemisphere) and a planning guide for our next summer season!
For those residing in the Southern Hemisphere, a brief view of the upcoming seasonal adventure along with some thoughts. Enhance your summer and enjoy your “natural” nakedness in the sand and surf!
A shoreline with incoming surf!
A bare embrace!
The above images of the Summer of 2025 were taken from the internet this very summer to illustrate the season of sun, surf and simple pleasure the beach brings to the majority of bare practitioners the world over! As a reminder that the concept of “summer fun” isn’t a recent phenomenon, other nostalgic pictures are offered below!
Many “fashionable” clothes-conscious people always seem to be completely baffled as to why there are those who enjoy and thrive in the act of skinny-dipping (swimming naked). It isn’t anything “new!” As a matter of fact, swimsuits didn’t actually appear until the reign of Queen Victoria in the 1800s! They gained popularity and became an aspect of “fashion” in the early 1900s. For centuries, humanity would engage in the sport of swimming in the same way they had for centuries – in their skin!
They may have segregated themselves by gender after various religions entered the picture but for the purpose of aquatic activity, covering wasn’t considered a necessity. Swimming was for fun and relaxation, not a showcase for fashion!
A couple of bare practitioners, early 1950s!
Sicilians, late 1800s!
Vulnerable feet!
Therefore, before we accuse, alienate and assign blame, we should remember a little of our history and remain calm. Accept what we are unable to change; after all, we are powerless to alter what has already happened.
Our bold spokesmodel, Phoenix Fellington, flaunts himself and the incoming surf!
Thoughts:
Those of us who are bare practitioner advocates and enthusiasts have often encountered situations where we were criticized for our memorable shoreline involvement. Too often we are confronted and judged by how we relate among ourselves and to how we react and recollect our “day at the beach!”
There exists within our broader society a common ideal that “patience is a virtue.” Similarly, tolerance is considered exemplary!
The same reminder is applicable to those who harshly degrade us because of our appreciation and preference for our nakedness! Their “flair for fashion” predilection is in no way superior to our status. All of us are equally entitled to our own expressions. If our choices aren’t identical and/or compatible, we should all respect one another and our differences and move forward together.
Our acceptance and recognition of what we share – the beach – is paramount. How we engage in it is relatively unimportant!
Tranquility!
Naked hugs!

The official end-of-summer is fast approaching! This is the next-to-the-last weekend of the official summer season of 2025! The final days are upon us as it is practically over. Make every moment both memorable and remarkable as we, who live in the Northern Hemisphere prepare to bid a farewell to one more period of comfort, warmth and extended days of sunlight.
To all our bare practitioner soulmates who reside in the Southern Hemisphere, prepare for your turn in the bliss of your approaching days of outdoor freedom and fun!
To all, best wishes for a very happy, healthy, safe and successful weekend!

It seems like only yesterday that we were bidding Bottoms-Up! July, 2025! Yet here we are again offering the same for the month of August! This entire season appears to have developed a skill in flying away no matter where we live! This is also the finalBottoms-Up! post entry here for the Summer of 2025! We all join together to thank our individual pairs of buttocks for the wonderful experience!
Bottoms-up! flotation device!
Our body and clothes freedom comrade (above) has no qualm about posing his buttocks while floating in his local lake. Why should he? It involves nothing complex, he’s just sharing his skin!
A rooftop pool? Ideal for bottoms-up anyday!
Bare buttocks! Bare feet! All bare all over! If we can “do it” on bottoms-up! day, we should enjoy the possibility of sharing ourselves with all every day! All year long!
All within reach!
Body and clothes freedom is our joy and pleasure, not only during the month of August and the season of summer, but throughout the entire year – every – year!
Open arms!
The bromantic couple above open their arms together in order to embrace one another and the entire month of August and all year!

Bare practitioner adult actor, Sean Xavier, dances his way through August!
Introduction:
The month of August may be more than halfway through but keep in mind that we still have almost four full weeks of summer remaining. As many of our acquaintances and friends perhaps are drifting off, we discover that we have time free but no one to spend the freedom with us! Not to worry – this season offers an array of activities to engage in, not only as a group but alone, too!
Footnote: Our “header” dancer (above) is Sean Xavier (birth name: Kyle Overton). He’s a bare practitioner performer in SGL pornographic films as well as talented with rhythm. His profile facial is inserted in black and white below.
Sean Xavier (Birthname: Kyle Overton)
Opening:
August is the last full month of the Summer of 2025! It is also the nuptial anniversary month of my spouse, Aaron, and myself! The entire month is absolutely worth dancing through! And as a bonus, for this dance, no formal attire is required! Feel free to join the dance floor with Sean Xavier and demonstrate your own type of rhythm!
Prepare yourself!
In order to participate with Sean, all that’s necessary is to strip off your briefs and simply be your natural self! After all, our month of August Antics is almost over! Do it now and avoid the last-minute rush to express your true self!
Bare feet complete the bare practitioner!
Hurry now! It’s impolite to keep Sean waiting too long! You don’t want to miss your once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to fulfill your fantasy! Or to create a new one!
August Antics casualty: exhausted photographer!
Unfortunately, this time of the year often affords an overwhelming amount of work for one of our “necessary” professionals: our bare practitioner photographers. The anxiety of the antics takes its toll on these often underappreciated individuals. Frequently, they collapse from exhaustion and have difficulty recuperating. At this time, my spouse, Aaron, and I both offer our sincere gratitude for their efforts in trying to respond to our every need! Keep up the amazing work!
Teddy Soares uses his “top hat” as an accessory for his antic!
There is no shame when August Antics becomes the norm! All of us understand the deceit that modesty instills inside our minds and souls!
Grin and join in all the fun!
Teddy Soares encourages all of us to acknowledge the absurdity of the disguises some of us assume “preserves” our dignity by making us all appear foolish when we employ this sad tactic! Remember the adage: Laugh and the world laughs with you! Cry and we cry alone! Teddy and his ridicule of imitating modesty proves the validity of these words of wisdom!
An August “treat!”
Before the too few remaining days of August, 2025, completely escape us, either dance with Sean Xavier or prepare for yourself an August treat and indulge! Make every remaining moment count to last you throughout the cold days of the upcoming winter season. Memories can and do provide us a serious consolation!
Naked hugs!

One of my summer pleasures is skinny-dipping (swimming naked). One of my favorite pastimes while enjoying the aquatic environment is reading. Using the spare moments to enjoy the books that often I failed to read while my university is in full session throughout the year. Strictly pleasure reading (fiction) for my excursions to outdoor bodies of water (natural or a pool). The subjects aren’t as intense or serious as professional reading or for research!
My surprise discovery!
David Baldacci is one among my favourite contemporary authors and I was very shocked to discover that he had a novel published earlier this summer that I knew nothing about. Several local booksellers that I subscribe to always alert me whenever my designated authors have a release to enable me to order. I had received no information on Baldacci’s newest, Strangers in Time!
It was never featured in my local bookseller (part of a national franchise) that has always promoted this particular author. When I stopped one of the management team as Aaron, my spouse, and I were in the location, they researched the title and were equally unaware of the publishing.
I was very fortunate and lucky to have discovered a copy of this book. Published in April 2025, Baldacci’s latest novel takes place in London, UK, in 1944 during the final days of the Blitz (German bombing). It is the documentation of the friendship that grows between 14-year-old Charlie Matters, orphaned by the bombings of the city and the ravages of World War II, and Molly Wakefield, a 15-year-old evacuee from London in 1939 who is returning to the unrecognizable city from which she fled.
They encounter Ignatius Oliver, a widowed bookseller attempting to heal from his recent loss of his wife. The three join together in friendship, dependence, and support in a dangerous and perilous time. Disaster and doom strike, yet they somehow manage to survive until the peace approaches, when fatality falls upon them.
A World War II historical fiction novel unlike any written by the author previously and presents a very impressionable and memorable story that is captivating, entertaining and refreshing as to the rewards of life.
When I first began university, my major area of study was history. David Baldacci’s Stranger in Time closely aligns fiction, history and suspense into a true work of an inspired mind!

Author’s Note: The next post entry here is planned for Friday, August 15, 2025, and the proposed topic is: “Tenth Anniversary Today!”
In the previous posting here, August Play-Day, 2025!, I broached the topic of referring to August Play-Month rather than “play-day” as the entire month of August appeared to be “fun oriented!” The higher the outside temperatures rise, the instances of excitement and playfulness climb (rise), too!
Aaron, my spouse and I both agree that there is simply no time for us to sit back and complain of “nothing to do.” It is, after all, summer and there’s always a body of water – somewhere – to remove all clothing and to dive into! Not only is the month of August here; it is also time to skinny-dip (swim naked) as a means of celebration! Skinny-dipping is relaxing, refreshing, rejuvenating and f-u-n!
Blue water skinny-dipper!
The phrase, skinny-dipping (swimming naked), is an American colloquialism that the author, Mark Twain (Samuel Clemens, 30 November, 1835 – 21 April, 1910) popularized with his literary characters Tom Sawyer and also Huckleberry Finn in the days of Southern rural communities in the middle 1800s.
The term skinny-dipping is relatively new as it didn’t emerge for many until after World War II ended. The enormous numbers of young men enrolled in the armed services against Germany, Italy and Japan brought together millions from all geographical areas of this country. The traditional rural Southern term, skinny-dipping, began to gain and grow in comprehension and recognition once they were discharged from defence service and returned home. The majority of young men entering the armed forces once the war began grew up reading Mark Twain’s novels. Thus the nickname (slang) for swimming naked became popular.
Celebrity spokes-model Phoenix Fellington at a clothing optional beach!
The exact origins of the slang term, skinny-dipping, is unknown. The popular conjecture is that skinny is used to denote “naked” to describe the swimsuit (skin). Dipping is thought to refer to the entry into the natural body of water a person would dive (dip) into. Hence skinny-dipping instead of swimming naked.
Few, if any, of the rural Southern areas had the financial resources to construct (build) an outdoor pool. This resulted in the early post-war skinny-dippers only having access to natural bodies of water (lakes, oceans, rivers, etc.). Skinny-dipping was affordable for everyone. The only “cost” was the effort necessary to remove one’s clothes and jump into the natural body of water!
A contemporary “pool” skinny-dipper!
Marvelous Monday Mentality!
An aspect of skinny-dipping that is too frequently ignored and/or overlooked is the attitude that accompanies the pleasure! It is a mindset evolution the naked swimmers absorb that produces positive energy and perspective! A POV (point-of-view) that is almost exclusive to skinny-dipping enthusiasts and their outlook!
Throughout our modern world, there can be found an almost universal bemoaning and dread of the arrival of Monday and in particular, Monday mornings! It represents a “return to the routine,” especially regarding the “work week.” The mundane life is back into place with little or no chance of any change.
A mundane Monday morning!
Yet in the lives and the perceptions of the swim clothes free population, quite the opposite is the reality. Their Monday is of the happy arrival of another full week – seven glorious days – skinny dipping! A repeat of all the aquatic antics and pleasures a person can enjoy minus the nuisance burden of wearing swimsuits! Among this community, naked swimming is in place for an “instant replay!” A substantial day in, day out existence to highlight their summer season!
A bonus for all of us who engage in swimming while bare, weather isn’t a major concern. If it happens to be a day of rain – no problem! Bodies of water, whether natural or man-made (pools), are both wet – as is the rain. Skinny dipping remains doable even during a rain shower. However, thunderstorms remain hazardous. Lightening and wetness are most definitely not compatible!
We are now living in our 21st century, some progress has been made regarding the skinny-dipping world. Man-made bodies of water – pools, whether enclosed or outside – are now possible locations for clothes free swimming activities!
We now have the option of removing our swimsuit once we gain access to the pool. Just take it off! Skinny-dipping is not a difficult chore to master!
The discarded swimsuit can be placed along the pool edge and now let all the “naked-fun-in-the-sun!” commence!
Naked hugs!

August is here! The last full month of the summer of 2025! Honestly, it feels like it was only yesterday that I was busy making notes for postings of the rapidly approaching Pride Month (June, 2025)! In reality, not only are we beyond Pride Month, 2025; July has fallen past, too! Why do summers disappear so fast?
Play-Month:
Instead of referring to an “August Play-Day,” I should rename this post entry “August Play-Month!” As far back as I am able to remember, the month of August seemed synonymous as an entirely “fun” month, a totally “play-month” despite it also being the very final full month of summer. A season that has remained my favourite of the entire year. Those “jolly and joyous” days of summer!
A Trail to Hike:
The group of bare buttocks featured in the heading image (above) are in line to proceed on a hike along The Trail through a shaded and cool local public park. At this time, before beginning the hike, I should mention that this particular trail is special as it is completely “pesky insect free!” All mosquitoes, spiders and other bothersome insects (such as fleas, lyme, etc.) were evicted from this park site years ago!
Not a surprise, our trusted bare practitioner hike coordinator is none other than ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! very own unofficial “official” celebrity spokes-model, Phoenix Fellington (born: Tre` Leron Fenderson)! He has both the ability and the devotion to nakedness to orchestrate all of us “out” of our clothes whenever and wherever he so desires! One of the many reasons Phoenix has a leadership role of all of us is because the “leads by example” (clothes free)!
Footnote #1: As our hike coordinator, Phoenix determined this photograph to be the first one depicted. “In line” (one behind the other) he wanted everyone to have a full preview of exactly “who could see what” while hiking!
Now, I realize that yesterday was Bottoms-Up! July, 2025! publishing day, so if any of you failed to recognize our spokes-model’s buttocks above, he’s the third set of buttocks from the right!
Footnote #2: More on Phoenix’s buttocks is offered below!
Return from Play-Day hike! Phoenix is 4th from right!
Our August Play-Day, 2025! hiking crew returned to the park trail entrance once the entire course was accomplished. No one looked exhausted or overly fatigued in any manner. Our excursion event for our August Play-Day, 2025! celebration was indeed an overwhelming success for all and also 100% body and clothes free!
The halfway cul-de-sac along The Trail!
We made it to the halfway point with everyone accounted for and intact. Our bare practitioner celebrity spokes-model, Phoenix Fellington, once again proved himself worthy of all of our trust in his leadership and true to his oft quoted philosophy:
“I love to be outside and naked with others!”
In the cul-de-sac photo (above) Phoenix is facing the photographer, second from the left! Halfway finished and still ahead!
Phoenix and His Buttock’s Poses!
The above .gif image depicts Phoenix modelling his buttocks while kneeling on a picnic table in the park. In an effort to avoid any additional confusion or mistake regarding Phoenix’s buttocks. This one shows him “in action” offering himself as a special “treat” to everyone surrounding the table! Excellent job, Phoenix Fellington!
Phoenix: same park, same picnic table!
Aaron, my spouse, located another “still” picture of Phoenix in now familiar neighbourhood! Obviously, he’s thrilled with the photo-shoot! Thanks for the picture, Aaron!
Naked hugs!

This pair of skinny-dipping (swimming naked) buttocks are the proud and bountiful property of renowned bare practitioner, male escort/model and Venezuelan born Gio Dell! He enjoys sharing his “generous treasures” with everyone who is interested in joining him in his outdoor pool! “Lose” your boxers and join in the fun!
Bottoms-up! sunbathing!
The beach, especially during the summer season is a perfect place to strip off all swimwear and stroll around, admiring all the buttocks being displayed!
The couple above have the ideal way to “cool” from an afternoon sunbathing in the hot sunrays: a “shower-for-two” outside before they begin a sandy trek inside their home!
Our bottoms-up! enthusiast (above) reaches for the shade of a fern leaf or a palm leaf while out in nature!

Skinny-dipping (swimming naked) is this bottoms-up! enthusiast’s favourite July way to spend his day!
Remember to bare your buttocks and celebrate bottoms-up!
