In the USA, the month of October, annually, is observed as Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer + History Month!
Knowing our past enables our understanding of our present and empowers us to prepare for our future!
As a segment of the population that has been banned, blamed, discriminated, maligned, marginalized, punished and segregated, it is vitally important that we are all made aware of the major, notable, significant and vital contributions we have given throughout centuries of oppression and persecution. If we don’t celebrate and commemorate our achievements and advancements, who will?
Introduction:
Mentally, the phrase “gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and queer+ history month” (GLBTQ+ history month) produces an image that mistakenly projects the beginning of our GLBTQ+ community and culture as 1969. The year of the Stonewall Inn riots (SIR) in New York City, New York, USA.
Actually, historically and honestly, the story of our community and culture extends far back in time. Many persons believe that Adam and Eve were the first two human persons to inhabit the Earth. Obviously, they were a heterosexual couple. The GLBTQ+ story begins shortly thereafter and continues to unfold today.
In reality and in truth, the history of our GLBTQ+ community and culture begins with our global humanity experience, wherever we reside. It progresses along national boundaries once a political entity (nation) was created.

USA GLBTQ+ History Month:
The USA observance of GLBTQ+ History Month began in 1994 by a state of Missouri secondary school (high school) history teacher, Rodney Wilson. His intent was to provide role models for teenage youth, build community identity and to offer a civil rights statement of the achievements and efforts of the same gender loving (SGL) community and culture.
A GLBTQ+ History Month website was created, designed and launched by Equality Forum in 2006. In reference, click the link below:
The above website is designed and maintained by Equality Forum. The site features 31 honoured recipients (one for every day of the month of October) for every year since 2006, arranged chronologically.
Notation:
Equality Forum is a USA national GLBTQ+ civil rights organization with an educational focus. It coordinates GLBTQ+ history month, produces documentary films, sponsors high-impact social initiatives and offers an annual GLBTQ+ civil rights conference. Click the logo below to visit the site.

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!

A “Friday Footnote” posting on my solo agenda for the first weekend of Autumn, 2025!
Road Trip:
As frequently noted here on ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! Aaron, my spouse, is employed as a nursing supervisor at a local hospital. Unfortunately, after a fully engaged work week, he is also substituting as attending both days this immediate weekend.
Following a very busy and dynamic week in the classroom, a “quiet” weekend, at home – alone – is not a welcoming need at this time. Personally, a brief unusual distraction is appealing as an alternative to solitude!
The Friday Footnote!
Aaron’s work involvement was noted at home almost a month previously. All of his fellow supervisors within his department are joining together to cover a co-worker who is coping with a major family emergency situation.
Richmond, my USA residential “home city,” is approximately a 90-minute drive (depending on traffic) from our condominium in Arlington. I’ve made plans with Paul Turner, a Richmond resident, childhood friend, fellow bare practitioner and old neighbourhood crony and we are planning a one-day “reunion” venture together.
On Saturday, 27 September Richmond celebrates its annual GLBTQ+ Pride Festival. Paul and I plan to attend the event, explore the scene and then either share a meal at either a food booth at the festival or at a local restaurant. It has been several years since I have attended a Richmond Pride extravaganza!
Weather predictions for this weekend in Richmond aren’t that promising. Rain is forecast – why this particular weekend? Paul and I have agreed to meet no matter the precipitation possibility. We can always enjoy a long luncheon in a restaurant!
Regrettably, municipal laws banning nakedness will prohibit us from exploring the Pride event naturally! Perhaps next year? We can always hope!
Have a happy and safe autumn weekend!
Naked hugs!

An Examination and Exploration of Our Community and Our Culture of Same Gender Loving Nakedness! #3
Identical Twins: Double the Nakedness, Double the Fun!
Preliminary:
As promised at the beginning of this series, this final offering for this publication was guaranteed prior to the end of the summer season as my personal perspective. Just a reminder that this post entry also includes that of my own identical twin brother, Alex. Sometimes, the sharing of our ideas, inspirations, memories, reactions, recollections, thoughts, etc., become blurred and riddled with questions. However, the experiences are shared and together as they involve us both – guilty and innocence – together!
We, Alex (Twin) and I, are identical; our births barely two hours apart. Therefore, we share our personal experiences in nakedness – the comfort, joy, and preference for living, as much as possible, our lives without the burden, duty and/or obligation of clothing/concealment!
Footnote: For this series, I use pictures of identical twinsfrom online. Our brothers prefer I not use any from our childhood.
Identical and Serious: together!
Introduction:
Our family name is Poladopoulos and we are identical twin brothers born almost two hours apart. Alex – the “first-born” – is also Deaf, same gender loving (SGL) or gay and frequently confused with me, Roger, the author of this blog and the “second-born” of this twin team!
Our parents were born in the Kingdom of Greece during the time of the German invasion and occupation during World War II. They married and began their family there before immigrating to this country in the early 1950s. Neither of them became citizens here and they returned to Greece in the 1990s. We (Twin and I) have three (3) older brothers and three (3) younger brothers. That makes the both of us the exact “middle-child” in our family.
Our family household being predominantly male has caused many to assume our nakedness wasn’t a major issue.
A very false and unreal assumption!
Our infancy and early childhood progressed along the same pattern as that of our older siblings with the exception of our diagnosis of being Deaf. Otherwise, we were “normal” until our parents and older siblings decided to teach us to properly adorn (wear clothes) ourselves. Our “moment” to establish our true identity! Our joint (shared) “declaration of independence” was upon us!
Bottoms-up! to yardwork!
Reality:
Our initial opportunity to proclaim our self-determination (identity) happened when the decision was made to instruct us on the process of how to dress – put on clothes. At last, a chance to demonstrate (show) precisely who we really are! Twin and I are unable to exactly recall the experience, so this episode is best described by our surviving parent (mother) and older siblings.
The miraculous fascination that Twin (our familiar reference name for ourselves) and I had for learning how to decorate our bodies with clothes was that it also gave us the knowledge of how easy and simple it now became for us to remove (discard) our clothing!
The proverbial adage, “practice makes perfect” was the result of this lesson. Easy to put on, easy to take off! Our parents were amazed at the both of us getting dressed in garments and then removing them immediately! The essence and introduction into our world of “guys without boxers!” No underwear equals no clothes!
Needless to elaborate, but this basic logistic created an enormous amount of frustration within our family household. Our desire for freedom from clothes soon reached epic proportions that continued throughout our childhood. This conflict in nudity versus textile (clothes wearing) was compounded by a communication issue: our being Deaf against the fact that everyone else was verbal (hearing). At the time, the tensions in our family, along with the births of our younger brothers, made happiness and tranquility seem impossible!
Luckily, Twin and I shared a bedroom. Perhaps “identical” is synonymous with “shared!” Soon, our parents conceived of a compromise: we could be naked inside our bedroom if we agreed to wear clothes while elsewhere in our home. Our older siblings joined in this project, and while some awkward occurrences happened, tranquility returned to the Poladopoulos residence.
Footnote: Now, today, as a family, we all laugh when remembering this drama in our lives!
Calm and peaceful!
As we matured, our late Father eventually acknowledged to us all that the “bedroom nudity compromise” was initially considered only a temporary adjustment. Both parents believed we would grow away from this behaviour and the nude insistence was a developmental “phase” of our lives that would eventually disappear.
Our oldest sibling, Nick, (who “came out” as gay while at university), readily admitted to our family that at his young age, he briefly thought Twin and I were “double trouble!” At the time of this incident, he viewed our being Deaf as synonymous with our penchant for nakedness!
Sometimes, a “temporary” compromise affords a very rewarding and significant solution!
A doorway of twins!
As to the communication concern: our family all learned to manually share (sign language) – both in English and Greek! A process that remains underway still today with the addition of in-laws (sibling marriages), nieces and nephews!
Summary:
Life experiences provided Twin and I with an opportunity to explore, firsthand, the world of nakedness. It afforded us a chance to examine and explore our perspectives, reactions and involvement! These same life experiences reinforced, both internally and in reality, our identical appreciation and commitment to nakedness that we both share!
Naked hugs!

Author’s Note: The next post entry here is planned for Monday, September 22, 2025, and the proposed topic is: “Autumn Adaptability!”
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!
Naked hugs!

Author’s Note: The next post entry here is planned for Monday, September 15, 2025, and the proposed topic is: “Beach Memories!”
Today is the day set aside for all of us to honour and salute all who work – no matter our job – in order to live! Exactly what we do isn’t important. The fact that we all do a job – and – strive to perform it to the very best of our ability – that is precisely why we’re all paid tribute with today!
Originally designed as a day to recognize everyone who was a labourer (manual), this day has now evolved into a day for all of us who are gainfully employed (retired) to pay tribute to ourselves and the entire workforce!
Employed!
SGL gay film industry actor, Kory Mitchell, featured in the photographs above, is posed with construction equipment as the background. An ideal bare practitioner model with the devices used that visualizes our paying tribute to all who labour throughout the year!
Kory Mitchell
Kory is presently retired from the gay film industry. After being diagnosed as HIV+ before he left his active career, he provided numerous hours encouraging safer sexual practices among the studios and voluntarily educated countless persons in the curriculum of the Red Cross HIV/AIDS prevention education curriculum. It was in this capacity that I personally met him!
The accolades given to the workforce today is also offered to all those who volunteer (serve in a capacity/position without being paid). They are an essential part of the dynamic that helps us all in times of need. Both Kory Mitchell and I provided these services to the Red Cross HIV/AIDS prevention education programs.
Happy Labour Day to one and all!
Naked hugs!

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!
Naked hugs!

An Examination of Our Community and Our Culture of Same Gender Loving Nakedness! #2
Introduction:
As bare practitioners, we are same-gender loving (SGL). We are bisexual, gay, or transgender. We are emotionally, mentally, physically, and sexually attracted to others who are of identical attraction and persuasion. We are, for the most part, content, peaceful, and relaxed among those we perceive as most like ourselves. We are advocates and enthusiasts of our nakedness, our state of being body and clothes free.
As bare practitioners, we are advocates, disciples and enthusiasts of nakedness. We cherish and enjoy our lives without any concealment and/or covering. Not having to be bothered or worried about hiding beneath layers of clothing/disguise and/or falsification!
As bare practitioners, we enrich, explore, fulfill, preserve and satisfy our happiness and our lives as well as our community and culture of bare practitioners through development, education, example, kindness resourcefulness and support of ourselves and others. We embrace and welcome others into our community and culture and into our way of happiness, hope and life!
Levels of Comfort 2:
Within the community and culture of bare practitioners, there are those among us who are comfortable with situational nakedness or the label situational nudes. Their comfort level with clothes freedom (bare) is not based on embarrassment, guilt or shame – it is instead based on the amount and/or level of exposure of their personal nakednessand the immediate situation of being. They have no issues with their sexual orientation.
There are multiple situations in which we may find ourselves experiencing our bodies without clothing or any type of covering. These may be planned in advance, or they may be spontaneous. They may happen when we’re alone and with others we may not are familiar or among a crowd of friends and/or peers.
Losing his towel!
The spontaneity of being revealed bare often is considered in humour and is not of anyone’s control. It is rarely planned and is synonymous with “accident.” For this reason, it is not determined to be a matter that requires a particular level or stage of comfort. The surprise element of the unplanned nakedness seems to somehow erase the need for any additional attention in these situations.
As there are those who prefer to be nude alone, there are likewise those who embrace with enthusiasm all the advantages of social nudity or communal body and clothes freedom. The activities and gatherings of these individuals have created the path that has encouraged the establishment of many same gender loving oriented clubs and organizations specifically designed to address these needs.
These social groupings began appearing in this country during the later years of the 19th century. The primary purpose was to create environments for communal and social nudity free from the legal and puritanical judgments of others. They offered comfortable opportunities for clothes freedom and an environment to introduce the life of nakedness to offspring. They were ideally “family friendly” and welcoming.
In June, 1969, the Stonewall Inn Riots in Greenwich Village, New York City, USA, opened the closet doors to positive recognition of same gender loving (SGL) communities in the USA and throughout the world. Eventually, the emerging SGL movement acknowledged the existence of body and clothes freedom enthusiasts among their population.
SGL clothes freedom enthusiasts!
As the awareness and recognition of the significance of the SGL body and clothes freedom community increased, the need for social inclusion was perceived. In the larger metropolitan areas on both coasts, this led to the formation of specific clubs to address those needs. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, bisexual and gay exclusive groups emerged into the growing number of interest-specific organizations serving the expanding SGL community and culture.
The Males au Naturel (MEN) of New York City, Los Angeles Nude Guys (LANG) of Los Angeles, San Francisco Kindred Nudists (SKINS) of San Francisco/Oakland, Greater Atlanta Naturist Group (GANG) of Atlanta, Georgia, and Lambda Soleil of metropolitan Washington, D.C. were among some of the earliest nakedness focused social groups organized along the Atlantic and Pacific coasts. Please note: these early social nudist clubs are not listed in chronological order.
The SGL designated clothes freedom movement arose because the prominent naturist/nudist movement refused to admit SGL persons as members nor as patrons. This discrimination continued until the arrival of the 21st century and in many areas and instances still exists even today. This has created a major problem within the discriminating community as many commercial resorts and destinations are suffering financially due to the fast-growing SGL affiliated facilities catering to the bare practitioner communities and culture are making the competition between the two divergent groupings into a financial nightmare.
This resulted in the development of many facilities catering specifically towards the marginalized population. These facilities were newly constructed, efficient and modern in both appearance and amenities, appliances and audiences. The popularity was overwhelming as many were also attracted by the “clothing optional” policy in place which broadened their commercial base. This expanded target made these properties receptive to both the bare and textile (clothes-wearing) populations.
The irony is the discriminatory establishment (primarily heterosexual) was the initiator of the marginalization of the bare practitioner communities. They have suffered the loss of the GLBTQ+ community and their finances. The properties offered as destinations are now secondary to the newer facilities afforded by the body and clothes freedom culture. Their revenues are decreasing as prices and costs are soaring.
Same gender love!
The resulting fact is that they, the mainstream naturist/nudist movement, are now the ones suffering from their own bias and prejudice. There’s no one to blame but themselves.
Assessment!
Curiosity:
One of the simplest yet predominant reasons people offer for exploring nakedness is the experience itself. Being completely and totally clothes free and unconcerned about the situation. Intentionally ignoring the reality that everyone else is attired (dressed) the same as yourself! Oblivious to the fact that all around, all are bare yet no one seems to care.
Pride!
Upon observing the crowd, some are actually amazed with the reality that no one is even giving anyone else a serious stare as to their nakedness. It is as if everyone, everywhere, is actually supposed to be that way- naturally!
Advice:
Most “first-time” social nude explorers will feel some nervous anxiety on their first venture into communal nudity. This is perfectly natural. Take a deep breath and proceed. Visually focus on eye contact with others. Shaking hands is acceptable personal contact, as are naked hugs (non sensual). It is recommended to limit physical contact initially. Introduce yourself to others and let them know that this is your first social nude event. Almost everyone you meet will remember their “first time” and will make you feel comfortable.
Removing to emerge clothes free!
Spirit of Adventure:
Tired of the repetitive social scene wearing garments and looking for a new social setting? Many seek a bare (nude) adventure to refresh their social calendar/involvement. This reason isn’t as obscure or as unusual as it may appear. Similar to Curiosity addressed above, the same advice is applicable in this situation. Relax and be as honest as you are comfortable while meeting new persons on your bare adventure – especially without clothing!
Once again, we refer you to utilize the Advice posted above. It remains applicable here, too!
Footnote #1: Some SGL social clubs permit the “newbies” (newcomers) to wear underwear for their first several visits. We recommend no clothing whatsoever. It is is indeed to ne a new adventure, then be as adventurous as possible! You’ll never know if you like it until you experience it!
Familiarity!
Familiarity:
There are among us numerous bare practitioners who began to examine and explore nakedness due to having family and/or friends who enjoy body and clothes freedom. These persons may or may not accompany the “explorer” to their initial naked encounter. If your family or friend are with you, they will guide you through the function and procedures. If you’re “on-your-own” (alone or solo), then refer to the Advice offered above for Curiosity and/or Adventure. Be prepared to identify your family or friend to those you meet at the social activity. It may inspire them to offer to help you through the experience and they may introduce others within the same social circle/crowd.
Feel free to share with others that you meet on these occasions any previous experiences – one-on-one and/or social – related to nakedness. One memory revealed may open doors to the same in others.
Conditional/Situational nudity!
Conditional/Situational Nudity:
There are persons who are comfortable and relaxed in their nakedness yet have discomfort or issues in displaying their genitalia (male sexual organs, specifically the penis and the testicles) in an unknown environment. There are even SGL professional pornography actors who have problems with this complete, full, total exposure of their anatomy.
For some, this conditional/situational nudity is merely one phase or sequence in their developing level of comfort. Others accept it as their total way of life. As bare practitioners, we acknowledge that each person is different and this is determined by each one of us in whatever situation we confront. Our level of comfort is as varied as our number within our community and culture as well as our divergent life experiences.
Naked hugs!

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!
