How comfortable are you with getting naked in front of strangers?

Do you like getting naked in front of strangers? Or are you hesitant because you're self conscious of your body.. or certain aspects of your body?

I will admit I am what you would call an exhibitionist (to a certain extent). I see the body as art, not vulgar.

When I was a virgin I always said I wouldn't get naked in front of anyone. However, I became an ovate in a group studying the Old Religion, and it was a requirement being naked in certain rituals, so as to gather the energies said to be sought for the acts. Now I get naked in front of my friends girls/guys whatever. I have no fear at all!

How do you feel about getting naked?

My boyfriend and I are both avid hikers, and the group we belong to is often 'clothing optional' in summer, and becoming more so. My boyfriend began to hike completely naked last summer. Happy as I was to have him going nude, though, I only went topless. I think that was mostly because he's always hiked barefoot anyway. 👣💕🥿🥿 I've always wanted to wear shoes, though, and was afraid my oxfords would look stupid on me if I wore nothing else, so I kept my jeans on.
This summer, though, he bought me some really nice gladiator sandals that look great when I'm wearing nothing else, so I've been happy to loose the rest of my clothes.
I've seen that girls quite typically like to have only their partners go nude the first time they're out with us, and gain the confidence to go nude themselves the next time.
