Felipe Ferreira: early nude pose and “Pride” tattoo!
The above photograph is one of the earlier bare published poses of Brazilian-born fashion model, DJ and SGL adult film industry performer (porn star), Felipe Ferreira! My spouse, Aaron, brought this to my attention when he first encountered it back in 2018. This was when Felipe initially began appearing in the USA modelling men’s athleticwear, swimwear and underwear styles.
What caught our immediate attention was the modesty he implied using his right hand all while boldly revealing his “pride” tattoo at the base of his neck! A typical “mixed message” pose that enhanced his growing career here in the USA!
In sportswear: jock-strap!
While focusing primarily on his modeling career – and his sense of wearing what he considers fashion – Felipe carefully “bares-his-buttocks” in twirling in his jock-strap! He also very subtly gives us a quick glimpse of his bare buttocks – an ideal bottoms-up! pose!
Felipe: pride in purple briefs!
He adjusts himself in his briefs and shares his pride in being same gender loving (SGL) or gay without mentioning his personal comfort in his nakedness! Instead, we are able to access photographs of his bare body without actually seeing anything below his waist safe for his buttocks!
Felipe’s comfort in posing as a member of the community and culture of a bare practitioner increases as he began working and posing with the SGL film-great, Rhyheim Shabazz who rapidly aligned with the rising celebrity and carefully encouraged his foray into publicly posing as an openly gay man and his growing affinity with those of us who are confident and proud of our nakedness!
Soon, under Rhyheim’s guidance and patience, Felipe grew in acknowledging and posing bare with subtle hints of his pubic hair and his appearing in a film with Rhyheim as his naked lover.
This film offering proved successful and both men, Rhyheim and Felipe, receiving attention and positive commendations on their cooperative efforts. In the above image, their foreplay reminds all of us that they’re both comfortable being bare together and in front of a camera!
Finally, Felipe Ferreira, comfortable posing with his full frontal nakedness! He took his time, becoming himself and willing to share what and who he really is with not only his loyal fans, but fellow bare practitioners as well as the general public! We can also attribute his accomplishing this task with the patience of his guide, Rhyheim Shabazz!
A very proud, open and amazing bare practitioner, DJ, model and gay adult film star, Brazil’s dynamic export, Felipe Ferreira, gaming away as the man he meant to be!
Naked hugs!

Splashman!
Running to see Felipe completely bare and to be prompt for skinny-dipping!
Every year, during the month of our GLBTQ+ Pride, the age-old debate/discussion persists: do we need to continue to observe pride? For appearances sake, some want to honestly engage in an examination of the necessity of retaining the preservation of our pride designation. Others see us as having outlived the need for that distinction. Aaron, my spouse and I both cast our votes in the yes! determination on this question!
The primary reason for our affirmation of keeping pride alive is that the need to celebrate us being ourselves is just as important and imperative today as it was in 1970 during the first anniversary of the Stonewall Inn riots (SIR). Case in point: the trumpster-dumpsters are continuing their assault on our community and culture and ourselves on a variety issues, notably the transgender concerns, identities and recognition. They are so biased and foolish that they fail to comprehend that their obsession with transgender is exactly what is underscoring the vitality of this situation!
The not-so-subtle attacks on the U.S. Supreme Court’s landmark rendering in favour of marriage equality is now underway, again under the endorsement and patronage of the trumpster-dumpster imbeciles. As the GLBTQ+ communities and culture, we need to remain vigilant in preparing for defending our equality and our inalienable rights. We cannot allow the resurrection of a Jim Crow Part 2 in which all advancements are frozen in a “separate but unequal” status!
Into this foray is one basic reality for the continuance of our pride commemorations. Many of our community and culture exist in an isolated environment regardless of social media and online accessibility. If even one of those persons benefits from a pride encounter and/or experience, then an enthusiastic and overwhelming yes in answer to the question of the need of pride in our community, our pride in our culture and our pride in ourselves for being what and who we are!
If our retention of pride helps to prevent just one suicide from depression over feelings of being alone and/or totally misunderstood, then definitely keep pride alive! If our retention of pride helps two persons reunite and renew their friendship, mutual support and relationship – bromantic or platonic – then keep pride alive!
The above are not the sole justifications for pride preservation in our GLBTQ+ communities and culture. Out festivities offer us all the convenience and opportunity to network together. To reignite our acquaintances with others and to remind ourselves of services and situations that can reward and strengthen our cultural exchanges and enhance our lives.
Our involvement and participation in pride functions affords us prospects of development and growth in both our personal and professional lives. We stay aware, informed and introduced to exciting and refreshing concepts, ideas and plans that enliven and enrich our own lives and what we share with others.
In remaining active in pride events, we expand our familiarity of issues, persons and topics that embrace, enhance and impact us personally but also us being members of a variety of communities, cultures and groups. Our knowledge of people and resources is invaluable in sharing!
Additionally, there are the usual arguments for keeping pride alive. Foremost among those is the opportunity to enable us all to remain current on issues that we share as a community and as a culture. This allows us to explore the options available to us and to discuss the solutions with those whom we otherwise may not have the chance to consult.
Another advantage the interaction within our community and culture with cohorts we normally have no contact. We can renew acquaintances and/or encounter new persons. This permits us to expand and explore as well as socialize others outside our usual crowd and to stay abreast of new and exciting interests and issues.
Hopefully and ideally, it makes no difference how we define, identify or label ourselves – bisexual, gay, lesbian, normal, queer+, “real,” transgender – there exists within all of us an element of belief, confidence, pride and stamina in being the individual person that we indeed are. That we appreciate and understand that throughout this global “home” we all share that there maybe (possibly) lives another similar being who perhaps benefits from the nature (sense) of community and culture inspired through a celebration of our being what and who we really are – us!
This chance (enablement, opportunity) is sometimes worth all the effort (involvement) necessary to afford and offer this person the reason to continue living another day! Keep Pride Alive!
“Our pride in being bare practitioners (same gender loving nudists) extends beyond the month of June of every year. It’s an ongoing process that reaffirms our self-worth all year.”
“This development of our sense of confidence in ourselves doesn’t bestow on any of us the right of arrogance and/or the right of judgment. We, of all people, know better than to make that assumption. Most of us have been the target of prejudicial behaviour (or worse) in our own lives and know first-hand how that makes people feel. Patience and tolerance of others, regardless of the beliefs or values they hold, should be our guide. Our pride in ourselves includes pride in our actions towards others.”
“Being confident and proud of ourselves involves respecting the rights of others in allowing them to be proud of themselves, too. Our freedom should not entail denying the same to anyone else.”

June: Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer+ Pride Month!
June is Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer + (GLBTQ+) Pride Month!
The Stonewall Inn Riots (SIR) happened on the early morning of 28 June 1968. In honour of that occasion, seen by multitudes of people throughout the world as the inauguration of the gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and queer + (GLBTQ+) equality movement, the month of June receives the attention of being GLBTQ+ Pride Month! Of course, we all know that our pride extends to everyday throughout the entire year! It is not limited to just one brief month in every year!
Rainbow Pride Flag!
The original Rainbow Pride Flag was inaugurated in 1978 for the San Francisco, California, USA, Freedom Day commemoration of the anniversary of SIR. The emblems were added to signify same gender love (SGL)! Yes, our flag-bearer is completely boxer-free nakedness!
The above image was the initial flag display header for our early post entries here on ReNude Pride: Guys Without Boxers! Before then, I also used the picture for my original Guy Without Boxers blog.
Progress Pride Rainbow Flag!
The Progress Pride Rainbow flag is now the current emblem for our GLBTQ+ community and culture’s global campaign for universal acceptance, equality, recognition and respect. It includes the rainbow design of our original pride flag plus the addition of the arrow to designate progress necessary to complete the inclusivity of both our community and our culture!
GLBTQ+ Pride Month 2026 is a time for us all to join in and celebrate and congregate each one of us being the basic person that we truly are! Of our community and culture being an open reflection of us and our institutions and our interests. Of our acceptance, our challenges and our joy!
Yet within this time of celebration and festivities, there are some extremely alarming realities that we are facing. These concerns and issues are in small doses now, but the potential for future expansion is very present and tangible.
The transgender community – especially the vulnerable youth – are under attack from those who seek to erase their very existence. Recently, the U.S. House of Representatives barely enacted a delay on voting on H.R.2616: a ban on schools nationally from teaching about gender identity, using correct names and pronouns, having reference materials representing transgender persons and acknowledging an individual’s transgender status and even their existence.
This conflict happened this year. In this, the halls of the U.S. Congress. The so-called “land of the free!” All courtesy of the fierce determination of the supposedly “elected” trumpster-dumpster!
The value of GLBTQ+ Pride 2026 is on the horizon and has yet to be fully realized. This is a mid-term congressional election year in the USA and the future of our freedoms is being severely tested.
There have been supposed basics of our democracy that we have been taught not to challenge or to interrogate. Yet the time is upon us now that these clauses no longer hold true or are valid. Institutions built when women couldn’t vote, when Black people were enslaved, when GLBTQ+ people didn’t legally and socially exist at all and social exclusion was theoretically baked into the very foundation of our laws and values.
If we are dedicated and serious in maintaining a democratic system that represents the dignity and will of all the people, then the time to evaluate and examine as to the structure of that system is now upon us.
Perhaps it is time to eliminate the electoral college?
Perhaps it is time to set term limits on the Supreme Court?
Perhaps it is time to rid politicians of corruption and greed?
We, the GLBTQ+ community and culture need to resolve to forge with other groups and organizations to unite and let the entire world know that not all of us residing in this country are blind followers of bigotry, greed and ignorance!
Happy Pride Month, 2026!

June:
The primary focus and theme is on gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and queer+ (GLBTQ+) issues. Of course, clothing remains an option and we both encourage nakedness at every opportunity.
July:
The primary focus and theme is on bare (clothes freedom) especially as it concerns our GLBTQ+ community and culture!
Result: two months of social pride all in one summer!
Remove those boxers and start the party now!
Happy Pride 2026!

A penny for my thoughts, now that the coin “penny” is a) no longer made in the USA and b) is only used on credit card purchases. Why bother?
“While being bare we dare to share!”
Basically, summer is the time to skinny-dip (swim naked). What better way to celebrate the fast-approaching season of “fun-in-the-sun” than to skinny-dip with someone important in your life?

Author’s Note: The next post entry here is planned for Monday, May 11, 2026, and the proposed topic is: “World Naked Bike Ride!”
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!

Analogy: if similar in some respects, then they must be similar in other respects.
The header photograph (above) probably needs no explanation as it is obvious that the two men are pointing to the penis on the other; therefore, they are referencing it. And as a notation, the Black man is a celebrity within the same gender loving (SGL) film industry (porn). His stage name (performance) name is Landon. We are unsure as to why they are discussing penis but on closer inspection they’re both almost identical in length and thickness, at least while flaccid (calm, relaxed).
The .gif images published below also feature Landon, today’s guest celebrity, this time sharing a sudsy bath with a different partner.
Landon and his partner’s buttocks!
Comparing all the visuals of Landon and his accomplices, perhaps they are sharing information on hygiene and/or what is known as “spring cleaning.”
The fact that Landon and his cohort appear to be clean, it is appropriate to speculate that cleaning is a similar trait in their personal routine. Given Landon’s professional status, hygiene is expected of him as part of his work preparedness.
Landon’s fascination with male anatomy!
A patronizing inference is not intended so we can safely assume the same applies to the level of cleanliness of Landon’s buddy/friend/lover/partner. Thus, the phrase “spring cleaning” in no way refers that they each bathe just once, annually, in the Spring!
Hence, the usage of “spring cleaning” may infer – hopefully – to the routine of maintaining a tidy, pristine and safe environment (body, living space, etc.) by both men, individually and/or jointly.
Footnote #1: No disrespect to Landon nor to his friend. Aaron, my spouse, and I both appreciate his DVD scenes as well as his personal appearance. Just a “spring speculation” on an uncertain phrase and what it really means!
Footnote #2: Since we’ve identified the analogy here, perhaps the time has arrived to rename the title of this posting. A suggestion of something more accurate and descriptive. Maybe: Bare Spring Cleaning? We are, after all, bare practitioners!
