“Nude” swimming<\/h2>\n

It’s so odd if you think about it. Nude swimming. Who in their right mind would put on clothes to go swimming?<\/p>\n

\"\"Oh. Right. People would do this.<\/p>\n

On your left you see original Victorian bathing suits. Can you imagine the agony of having to haul all that around while you’re trying to swim?<\/p>\n

I’ve researched this for my book ‘The Unsworth Manor Nudes<\/a>‘ (available on Amazon<\/a>) and not only did they have these amounts of cloth hanging around them, the ladies even utilized ‘bathing machines’. Wagons that rolled into the water so people couldn’t see any skin (what skin?).<\/p>\n

My first time<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The first time I swam\u00a0au naturel<\/em> was at a sauna-like place. They had heated pools inside and out, and I went there with a few friends in the middle of a serious winter. The sensation was incredible, especially when getting out of the water. I’m sure that most nude-swimmers will understand and recognise that. If ever you have the opportunity to do this, do it. Swimming outside when there’s snow all around is incredible.<\/p>\n

Skinny dipping<\/h2>\n

Another expression I wonder about is ‘skinny dipping’. I call that swimming. Putting on clothes to swim is just odd. Nobody will wonder what you’re trying to conceal beneath those bits of fabric. The only proper way to swim is still naked, as far as I’m concerned. Getting out of the water with wet fabric hanging off you (and showing everything that’s beneath it very often!) feels bad and cold.<\/p>\n
