Butts on bikes look especially funny to me haha. Never hosted a naked party but been to many a nude beach and my participation was almost exclusively decided based on critical mass of female nudity!! Didn't even realize it...

I appreciate the tips in this article, but I have one critique that I couldn't ignore.

Characterizing a guy saying "Nice titties" as evil or hegemony is a bit dramatic, even for a prude.

Should he have said it? No

But to imply he wanted to assert his dominance over you (which is what "Hegemony" is) based on those two words is a dangerous mischaracterization and perpetuates the continuing vast discrimination men face by many nudist groups and resorts, especially single men.

Simply tell the guy that's not appropriate and 9/10 times they will apologize and that they meant no ill-will by it. If they don't apologize, then sure, your statement applies, and the guy should be kicked out.

To reference, I have had women at nudist events tell me I'm "well hung" or that I'm bigger than the average, but does that mean they want sex? No, and I never assume so. It's a compliment, nothing more, nothing less. As long as they never try to touch me, I just take it and move on and don't think a second about it. If I didn't like what they said, I tell them for their awareness for future endeavors....but to attach an "evil" label on them or wanting to kick them out, again, a bit dramatic.
