Until recently, I made videos with Bing but now it only allows pictures. Everything else I’ve looked for requires money.

I found this interesting and I understand how they must have felt because I live in Canada as a citizen now and came here indirectly due to a terrible military experience. While I know they are still around, I haven’t personally met an old guys who came here for that reason although I met one deserter who came later on.

I’m currently watching alone at a Hooters and it’s kind of depressing.

I live in Toronto and do inspections at different places every day for my job. Occasionally I’ll be in some drug area and it seems to always be the case that I’ll see fentanyl addicts around 730 in the morning before I get started. Sometimes there are groups of them. I only recall seeing one at night once and maybe one in the afternoon. Is it their version of coffee?

Someone asked about nudism in your country. I made a detailed post I put a lot of thought into because being a nudist is an important part of my life that means a lot to me. I like explaining what it’s like online and in person and clearing misconceptions as well. I made a post the other day going into great detail but no one really responded.

Anyway, here was my post.

I’m a nudist here in Canada. I’m very involved in the community and was literally just at a nudist resort a few hours ago. I go most weekends during the summer.

Unfortunately, most people I know are not open to it and a lot of people have wrongful misconceptions. I get asked the same questions so often when I tell people that I say, “I know what questions you have and the answers are…” I remember one time at work a guy I was working with randomly said, “yo, I heard you’re a nudist” and I said, “great, people are talking about me.” Most people I’ve met think it’s a bit odd and aren’t open to trying it. I’ve encountered the occasional person that has legitimately hated me for being a nudist but that is rare. Those people think we are somehow a danger to children and trying to explain things to them just makes it worse.

Thankfully, I’ve gotten several friends to go with me and one was as recent as a month ago. She has gone with me 3 times now and loves it. She randomly called people on her phone her first time and said, “I’m at a nudist resort, you need to try this.” I saw her yesterday and she wants to go next weekend too.

The demographics tend to be older however there is usually a minority of younger people as well as families with kids on most weekends. I’m 37 myself and have been a nudist since I was 21. The vast majority of people that go are white, I would say well over 90%. The resort I go to can be very busy during the summer especially if there is an event and there were a few hundred people today. Other days can be what I call a, “10 old people day” but even then you can enjoy being with the friend you went with.
