If i dont have anythig to do ( uni/ work/ see people) i wear as little as the temperature in my room will bare.

straight from the bath, i dont mind slouching about in the towel only.

I live with my family, so naked aint an option ( unless i’m sleeping), but my room is my domain, and i wear the uniform of my regieme  
:o

( i really should move out… )

When you’re _what_ on your computer?

Oh! _Goofing!_

Okay, forget I said anything.

I generally lounge in bikini (non-thong) underpants, and a tank top. I just delay the shower if I don’t have to be anywhere. I’d probably spend more time nude except I hate having the blinds closed when there’s perfectly good natural light. I figure as long as I’m wearing something with as much coverage as a bathing suit, open windows are fine.

Also, I don’t like the constant reminder that I need to lose 10 pounds that I have when I’m nude.

Wow with all the nudists this thread has uncovered I think it’s time we organized a… NudeDopeFest!

We can rent a small B&B on the beach somewhere for a weekend, just for the use of NudeDopeFest attendees. That way we can all walk around in perfect comfort. Since most of us post to SDMB in the buff already it shouldn’t be awkward at all to mingle with other Dopers in person nekkid right? 😛

But I attack the notion! I wrestle with it! I knee it in the groin! I put it in a half nelson and make it beg for mercy! And then, when it is lying whimpering on the floor in front of me, I go and put on clothes, like a normal person.

Or I would if I had any energy left at that point, which I don’t. So nude it is.

Okay, all you people who say you’re naked half the time, I’m gonna need a cite. 😃 Seriously, I’m pleased to see so many fans of nudity on here.

My bf and I shuck our clothes as soon as we get inside the door at home and we spend the bulk of our time at home nekkid.

[homer]Don’t you hate pants?[/homer]

If I’m lounging around reading or watching tv with Mr. Armadillo, I tend to be pant-less as much as possible. If I’m alone, it’s nekkie time, _all_ the time! Actually, that’s not true. Usually I wear a shirt, if nothing else, in case the roommates come bouncing in (To my bedroom. Without knocking).

My catchphrase (one among many) is “who needs pants?”–which I think will now become my sig.

Peace,

That must make things interesting for any deliverymen or Jehovah’s Witnesses who come knocking.

Ah the joys of not having kids… Nekkid as much as possible here. Hubby tends to roam around in a 4x Tshirt and shorts which he sleeps in (he wears XL, but likes the wiggle room) I have to keep an old dress in the foyer in case someone comes calling.

I live alone, and I’m naked or in just a thong 95% of the time. Like right now. I’m guaranteed nude if I’m doing housework…why get clothes dirty when I’m going to hop in the shower afterward anyways?

I learned a good lesson the other day, though…don’t fry bacon unless you have a shirt on. Splattering oil and large boobies don’t mix well.

Did someone say naked dopefest? Alberta dopers, let’s organize!😉

I took a bath at ten this morning and I am still wearing my terry cloth towel-wrap at four p.m.

Best Saturday ever!

\*I’d go around completely nekkid but I don’t like the looks my cats give me when I do this.

I’m a big fan of the sarong-and-nothing-else while at home. The Spouse, on the other hand, wanders around in T-shirt and underwear. And yes, we usually keep our blinds closed. 😉

When I have kids, if I am actually able to (some medical uncertainty there ☹ ), I imagine I’l be pulling the sarong up higher and wearing underwear underneath it, but I can’t see actually wearing “outside” levels of clothing while at home.

And I attend clothing-optional festivals whenever possible.

I usually do housework in a pair of old denim shorts, I don’t like my dangely bits flopping around when cleaning. I’m afaid they’ll get snagged or crushed somehow. Likewise, I need shorts for the bacon frying! :eek:

Yeah, I suggested the nekkid dopefest, but I don’t think we can just do it regionally like most of them. I think we’d end up with just two or three naked dopers sitting around together in a hotel room in each city (hmm, could be a very good thing, or a very bad thing…) I think it’ll have to be organized along the lines of a Super Naked Dopefest if we want to get a critical mass of nude dopers running around 🙂

You mean like [this?](http://www.somethingpositive.net/sp04052003.html) . 😃 (First thing that sprung to mind).

(Warning: Nothing too explict, but perhaps a little inappropriate)

I often don’t feel like putting clothes back on after showering. Sometimes when it’s hot I don’t bother wearing much, but the problem is that as I have a ground floor room this means I can’t open the window, so is a little self-defeating. Outside my bedroom I can’t, as I live in a college dorm. (Sortof).

I usually put on a pair of trunks and lounge around in those all the time if the weather’s warm. During the colder months I’t sweat pants & socks; a T-shirt if it’s necessary. But yeah, temperature permitting, I wear as little as possible.
