    My dad and brother were always in their underwear. LOL, I remember one time, my dad was watching tv in his boxers and my mom said (she talks like marge simpson's sisters) "Tom, cover up! Your dingle-dangle is hanging out!"
    hahahahahahahahahahahahahaa

    Yeah, thats me. I'm in my underware right now and the kids are right here. I often answer the door in my underware. If someone comes in, I'll put some shorts on.

    Yup, that's exactly how my dad was. I remember one time in high school bringing friends home...and there's dad...in his underware...not even embarrassed about it. I was mortified. I haven't lived at home in years...but I haven't seen him do it lately...but who knows..

    My brother walks around in his underware, too....I guess boxers aren't a big deal.

    I guess children only start to feel uncomfortable with nudity when they enter puberty. Parents then should be respectful. Before that, it's just natural and no deal at all. We have family dressing rooms in public indoor swimming-pools, so we dress and undress even in the presence of other families. There never was a problem, not a place for flashers. And of course you have to tell your children not to stare at others!

    Hell, boxers cover more than the old NBA shorts used to. I've been known to swim publicly in my boxers...

    But what about the "wormhole"?

    Mine won't fit through that hole, so I don't worry about it falling out... Actually, a lot of boxers have a button for the worm hole.

    Same here.

    Also in Europe if you go to most hotel swimming pools on the continent and beaches (not just nudist beaches) there are going to be a good percentage of the women who are topless so I know I always saw my Mum (and even my Grandma :p) topless when we were on holiday.
    So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?
  • unfortunately, at least for me, the only thing this thread has done was cause me to picture my parents naked.... and if you hadn't yet about yours, you just did....lol

    shhh.....trying to think: deserted island, deserted island, deserted island....

    Oh, I don't think there's any doubt that it's completely taboo in America. I'm gonna throw out the words "Superbowl", "nipple" and "complete meltdown of society", and let everybody piece it together. :p

    Haha, that's great.
    I was just thinking about this topic this morning getting dressed in front of my 2 year old daughter. I was wondering at what age that it becomes weird. I think soon. Everytime I come out of the shower and she is in my room she points at IT and stares. lol very weird. Time to change the situation.
    For boys though its fine. Men are men. Big deal.

    LOL the other day I was peeing, standing up of course and she tried to stick her head between my legs from behind to have a look at what was going on. OMG!!!! I had to yell at her for her to get away. Hahahaha

    This is hilarious as well, lol.

    The hole in the ozone is the only hole I can't reach and even then, its pretty close. You and Acoustic Guy feel threatened when other guys talk about their junk? Don't worry, I'm sure your penis is adequate.

    Oh, and I was just joking. I'd think some of you might realize that by now...

    I always did the same when I had my own child and never really thought about it either. I always sleep naked also. Once she became a teenager though, and my new guy moved in with us, I stopped doing it because he felt a little weird about it - he did not grow up the same way. I still will walk around in my undies and bra, but not totally naked anymore.

    I personally don't see anything wrong with it.

    I grew up in Wales too, and I sure don't remember my parents walking around in the nude all the time!

    I think the idea is that your children shouldn't be able to remember those sights when they're older, thus I think after about age 6 or so it's probably not so appropriate. At least not to see the parent of the opposite sex to yourself - that's just NASTY!
  • tell you what,post some pics of you in the nude (ladies) and we will decide if you should run around like that or not :D:D:D

    I think when I was young it didn't bother me seeing my parents naked, but if I saw my dad's hog now I'd probably throw up.

    people do this more often than you would think!
    I know someone who rode in a group across country and they all got naked for the entire state of Montana!

    and I've been in running races where people run naked!

    I remember showering occassionally with my mom when I was really really little, probably for efficiency's sake- easier to just clean me up in there than drawing a separate bath, but I don't think I ever really saw my dad naked, that would have been kinda weird...
