Does anyone else find it a little creepy that the life-long nudist they talk about with the leather "genital bracelet" was a middle school teacher?

"They're a good class of people, they're no different to you or I," said John Bussi, owner of the midtown restaurant. "They're not hurting anybody, it's not a wild Roman orgy."

I'd definitely go there if celebrities ate there

No, turtle777, that's not me.

She has too much body fat.

See her flabby upper arms?

I thought he was Harvey Weinstein.

Like Michael Moore?

Good thing the story had pictures. One might have "gone visual" with an entirely different image-and quite a different one it would have been. Reality has a habit of intruding and bringing one to one's senses. That's fine. No, I won't be stopping by, thank you very much.

But I will invite people to stop by Rudy's Bar-B-Q near Sea World San Antonio. Great food, laid back atmosphere, friendly folks all over. Wear jeans and a tee shirt or people will stare.

No.

Nudist != (Pervert | Pedophile)

It's just a different lifestyle, one that doesn't necessarily have anything to do with sex.

Not sure what the "genital bracelet" is about (haven't read the article), but the fact that the guy's a nudist doesn't automatically make him a danger to kids. If he whips the genital bracelet out in class, well, that's a different matter...

This would seem to be the lesson of nudism and HBO's Real Sex.

Case in point, ever met or even seen an attractive polyamorous person? I haven't. What a waste.

[Agent69]

Personally, I wouldn't care about be naked so much as I would be worried about accidental erections. (This happens to me all the time but at least I am dressed.)

AND she has a huge black mole on her right shoulder.

Yikes, it would be hard to ignore something like that, but somehow she does because it's still there.

I'm thinking more along the lines of Natalie Portman, Ashley Judd and Catherine Zeta-Jones (to name a few), obviously, withouth their boytoys

Maybe if you show up in the nude too and "impress" them, you could become their boy toys

uh, it's not a different lifestyle, it's a creepy lifestyle. nudists are creepy, and people who wear c0ckrings to restaurants are probably perverts

Why is wearing clothing not creepy? Because it's a socially accepted practice, that's all. I have no idea what the correlation between said rings and the perversion rate, so I won't comment.

I don't know about you, but I like to keep my world limited to what is socially acceptable. Most of us live within the social norms, meaning that we brush our teeth, put on clothes, chew with our mouths closed, etc. People who deviate from what is acceptable become gross, or just plain creepy. As humans, we are all expected to act alike, and its natural to be wary of somebody who acts totally out of line. Thus, I would be creeped out if I ate in a restaurant with a guy who was nude and had phallic jewelery.

[dreilly1]

I find it funny that she's eating her dinner naked but still puts her napkin on her lap.

Not sure

Anyway, AFAIK, she posted it last on the HP/Fiorina thread, but that link no longer works. Maybe she'll see this and post it again . Either that or you'll at least be able to see her tummy at www.sexytummies.com soon.

[sugar_coated]

Everyone is nude inside their clothes.

The restaurant may not have hot soup, but a hot pasta sauce could sure cause some unpleasant burns!

What's creepy about it? There is absolutely NOTHING hidden about nudists; you cannot say that about ANY group of non-nudists. And you've probably been in a number of restaurants with people wearing cxxx rings-you just didn't know it. Doesn't that make it a little "creepier?" I hope so. BTW, "pervert" is usually a label applied by someone who does not understand what someone else does, and is threatened by it. Not too many years ago, any sexual position other than the missionary position was LEGALLY a "perversion," and punishable by imprisonment. So, for that matter, was any form of birth control. Now THAT'S creepy.

What I think is creepy is people seeing someone who demonstrably thinks differently than they do, and assumes that the demonstration has the same meaning that the observer would assign it. I.e. "nudity is directly related to sexuality," which is the oposite of the nudists' most basic tennent.

Judge a book by its cover... would that be like judging you by your choice of screen name? i.e. completely unrelated to whether or not the person is good/nice/etc.

Whether a person is nice or not is a different question. I'm sure that everyone is nice in their own right. However, I think that social desirability is a more important quality in daily life, and you can gauge this by a few observable traits. I'm not saying that judging people based on their appearance is right, but that's just how life is. "The clothes make the man."

In other words, the vast majority of people won't want to associate with you if you are naked.

I don't think a napkin would make that much of a difference in preventing against pasta sauce.

Crumbs might be a problem, though, I suppose....

Same goes for anything else that's not the "norm." It doesn't make it creepy, it makes it different. While we're at, let's define the word we're discussing. Here's my attempt:

A personal feeling of discomfort which is highly influenced by social norms.

And why should a person be socially accepted? Wouldn't it be better for them to be happy and to do what makes them happy? I think it would be against the norm to think that you should do something socially acceptable that makes you unhappy. Note that socially acceptable and legal are two different things.

[Burke]

Actually, a place like that could serve well for a blind date. You know what you're getting right off the bat, none of that Jay Sherman "Okay, I am now removing my shirt...a mild feeling of nausea is normal..."

The way I see it, life is like a big machine, and we are all cogs in a wheel. In order to keep the wheels of society going, we all have to conform to certain standards, otherwise we won't work as individuals. We have to relate to people in a normal way, and to do so, we have to dress, talk, and think in a similar fashion as everyone else. I'm not saying that people have to all be exactly alike, but we all have to be at least reasonably alike. How are you supposed to get on in school or at work if you don't act like your peers? You have to be like your peers, otherwise you are severely restricting yourself to the outside world.

The same goes for nudists. They may think that it is important for them to be naked, to be "who they are," but in reality they are cutting themselves off from everyone else. Nobody wants to be around somebody who is naked. It's pointless, in my opinion, to satisfy some unusual desire at the expense of your social relationships.

I'm not saying its wrong to be a nudist, I'm just saying that its unusual and it puts most people off. If I had some need to be naked, I would just confine it to the privacy of my home. It's like sex.. I don't care what you do, just keep it to yourself.

How are they imposing their nudism on you?

[sugar_coated]

Nudity can be too disturbingly pure for the unpure.

They aren't imposing their nudism on me, that's not what this is about. I'm not moralising the issue, or saying that nudity has some kind of agenda against us. All I'm saying is that when people take off their clothes and go to restaurants, it's weird, it's a little creepy, and it puts most people off. I'm not the one who decides what's acceptable and what isn't, I'm just pointing out that nudity is socially unacceptable. If those guys in the picture want to eat their fois gras and place a napkin on their lap to keep sauce from getting into their pubic hair, that's fine, but if it's still gross, and I don't want to see it.

Personal opinion noted. I probably wouldn't venture into a nudist restaurant either, because I would be uncomfortable being apart of that lifestyle.

Anyway, the original sentiment that brought about the "creepiness" word at all had to do more with the ring and the guy being a middle school teacher, not the nudism. As a high school teacher, I can tell you there are plenty of things that teachers do, both normal and abnormal, that would raise more eyebrows than a penis ring.

Oh right, well fair enough. I wasn't implying that he might be a paedophile, just a pervert. There's a difference! That he might be a risk to his students never crossed my mind, I just think that nudism is creepy (and I'd bet money that most people in the real world would agree).
