Naked Yoga

My first visit to Sandy Bay was to change my approach to being naked out of doors for ever. I left my bicycle in the parking lot and walked maybe two kilometers along a sandy path through the beach bush, meeting all sorts of very friendly people on the way. Many were moms and dads with children.

(Ed: She looks very cute to us….)

I have to tell you that I nearly fell over when the beach came into view around the corner – there were dozens of people doing what people do at the seaside except they were all completely naked. There were families having picnics, kids making sand castles in the sand, boys and girls holding hands, even an ancient granny and grandpa catching a suntan.

I stripped off, left my clothes under a convenient stone and wandered down to check out the action. Funny thing is, I didn’t feel awkward at all and to be honest it was like being in a dream come true. I swam out into the sea and body surfed a wave until I got dumped in the breaking surf. When I surfaced I found myself looking into the eyes of a girl about my own age. And boy was she cute with blond hair, freckles and all. Then I remembered that I was standing in knee deep water with nothing on, and that she was naked too. I blushed red as a tomato.

(Ed: In Fact she looks so yummy we will take two)

I can see you’re a newbie, she said. Come and meet my family. And that’s how I ended up running across a beach full of people, stark naked, and hand in hand with the girl I was to marry a few years later stark naked too.

“In the artsy, laid-back hippie town of Victoria, on an island off the west coast of Canada, Poetry in the Raw is in its third year running. Held at a popular downtown coffeehouse afterhours with the windows curtained off, local performance poets and spoken word artists bare their souls (and much more) as they share their literary musings in the nude.

(Ed: Nice post)

The poems all share a common theme of acceptance, tolerance, body image, and ideas of beauty. It began as a fundraiser for the Victoria Slam Poetry team to fund their trip to Halifax to compete in the Canadian Festival of Spoken Word. It became a sold out sensation and attracted so much positive attention that it became a yearly event.

The audience were so moved by the experience that they started shedding their clothes as well, leading to the current tradition of the “pants-less intermission” halfway through the show. I was there in the front row for the original performance back in September of 2007 and I must say that it was one of the most entertaining and liberating experiences of my life. I still laugh about the moment when I threw my bright lime-green bra onstage and it accidentally hit one of my favorite poets in the face!”

Ed: (We will take it on the chin with a lime green bra any day)

If you were at Sky Harbor International February 5th, 2010 you may have been in store for a strip tease. 27 year old Daniel Green decided to run through the airport in the buff. People who were at the airport that day saw a naked man which was Mr. Green running throughout the airport until security caught and arrested him.

(Ed: Looks like Daniel Green to us…….some folk get all the luck)

Police are reporting Daniel Green pulled up to the terminal in his car at high speed jumping out of his car, without putting the vehicle in park. He then begun to rip his shirt off and ran inside the airport. As the car began to keep running and rolling luckily the airport staff saw the car in time jumped inside the driver’s seat and stopped the car before any serious damage took place. Meanwhile, after Green took his shirt off he proceeded into the airport, reports said Daniel Green went straight to the ticket counter and started to raise hell.

(Ed: Now only if Daniel had kept his panty hose on)

The witnesses who were around said Daniel Green acted very bizarre pushing over signs until he then began to strip completely naked inside the airport. While Daniel was undressing the police said he threw a small pocket knife on the ground, he was then detained by security and Daniel Green’s fun was instantly over. He was arrested and now is facing charges of reckless endangerments, disorderly conduct, and indecent exposure.

The granny brigade and other religious loonies like to make out that being ashamed to be in the nude is proof that nakedness is a deadly sin. While nasty people like boot camp sergeants and police interrogators may use this fact to their advantage, the truth is that the loony brigade couldn’t be farther from the truth.

(Ed: Master Philip is in Love)

In the early days when the ancestors of human beings were just making their appearance in warmer climates they were completely naked. As they migrated northwards to colder climes they invented clothes – animal skins actually – to keep themselves warm. Later on, after their descendents invented weaving, they learned how to make the clothes fit better, and added embellishments to indicate position in the tribe.

(Ed: Great down pipe job……two of ‘em)

In this way clothes became a status symbol – the more powerful you were, the more likely you were to have the best clothes made for you. At the other end of the scale, the poorer and the less influential you were, the more plain would be the clothes – at the far end of the scale you had nothing, wore nothing, and were ashamed of your social status, not your nudity.

It’s high time we got the tables turned, and pointed out that people wearing clothes are after cheap status, and nothing more.

Katy Perry has unveiled the cover for her new LP, Teenage Dream.

The pop star is not known for her shyness in fact she has often got her tits out for the boys….and girls, so maybe it does not come as a huge shock that the cover portrays her naked, surrounded by pink cotton candy………….. and we would like to lick her cotton candy ANY day. Big kisses to you Katy. We love you!

Pioneering English feminist Mary Wollstonecraft felt that women should not give up freedom and control of their sexuality, and thus didn’t marry partner Gilbert Imlay, despite the two having a child together. Though the relationship ended badly, due in part to the discovery of Imlay’s infidelity, Wollstonecraft’s belief in free love survived.

(Ed: Nothin’ like some good ol’ free love we think)

 She developed a relationship with early English anarchist William Godwin, who shared her free love ideals, and published on the subject throughout his life. However, the two did decide to marry. Their child, Mary took up with the English romantic poet Percy Bysshe Shelley at a young age. Percy also wrote in defense of free love in the 

(Ed: Looks like Mary and Percy being a bit of a tease….actually it looks like some spanky fun to us)

 Epipsychidion (1821):

I never was attached to that great sect,

Whose doctrine is, that each one should select

Out of the crowd a mistress or a friend,

And all the rest, though fair and wise, commend

To cold oblivion…

Free love has this, different from gold and clay,

That to divide is not to take away.

Every January 26 in Maslin Beach, Australia (South of Adelaide) hundreds of athletes compete in the buff at the annual Maslin Beach Nude Olympics. Slathered in copious amounts of sunscreen, and braving the inevitability of getting sand stuck in uncomfortable places, they participate in such events as the discus, the flag race, and even a nude three legged race.

(Ed: Gotta be the best butt in the world)

It’s not too far-fetched of an idea; the original Greek Olympics were a nude event. Most people believe this tradition began because an Athens runner tripped on his clothing, some say it was so that females couldn’t disguise themselves as men to compete. Either way, it’s a great way to show appreciate for athletically toned and perfected bodies.

(Ed: Gets a gold medal from us)

While inspired by ancient tradition, some of the Maslin Beach events such as the “best bum competition”, were probably not held in 776 BC. I’ll bet the judges for that event love their job!

(Ed: Gotta be the best job in the world)
