Nudist who just dont care...
Gays visiting Nudist Resorts
| I wanted this first "real" topic to be a tough one. We hear a lot about Gay marriage and should it be legal/illegal, it's a sin/ not a sin and the whole gambit of moral issues. Now, with Nudists and the concept of a "family friendly" resort/club, and the fact that some parents don't want to have to explain this type of relationship to their children, what is the answer for a Gay couple? Is the couple welcome? What's the legal, moral, ethical issues? This is my view point..."I just don't care". Now using your background, your education and your beliefs...convince the group why we should or shouldn't care about this... | |
| Thanks for lettng me join the group! Treating gays differently is like saying, you can't do something be cause you are six feet tall. Some people may say they don't want to explain gays to their kids, but I think they are insecure in their manhood or womanhood. From what I've been told, people are born gay. You don't just decide you want to play with dolls because your dad doesn't throw the football around enough. Now, because some people can be a-zholes gays need the job discrimination laws to protect them, and so do nudists, but that is another possible thread. Anyway, let them in, marry etc who cares? | |
| As long as they conduct themselves appropriately, just as is expected of heterosexuals, why should it matter? Besides in today's society gays are very openly allowed to interact with other members of society. Unless a person is homophobic (something children must be taught I'm sure) we're very likely to often interact with gays without ever realizing their sexual orientation. Yes, there are those who are flamboyant and very much want others to know they're gay but the vast majority are just like mainstream society. So,I say let them in just as others are welcomed as long as they abide by the rules. There's already enough descrimination against "single" men in an effort to maintain balance. Jim | |
| I do not care if all the phobic people open a club were no one is of a different color, religion, race, sexual preference, scarred, tattooed, disabled, pierced or anything else they do not want to explain to their children; so that I can open a club for all of us odd people, where those who which to expose and educate their children to diversity can come. Those children whose parents wish to isolate them from their curiosity about the world around them can let television, equally as ignorant friends, and experimentation educate their children. | |
| I have been a nude resort in the Caribbean that had no rules against gays, single men or women or unmarried couples. I had been there twice as a single man and once as a unmarried straight couple. A few of the private clubs in my area do not allow singles or unmarried couples. That last one seems to be a catch all legalize phrase. | |
| I'd feel as at home in a "Gays Banned" nudist venue as I would in a racially segregated restaurant or a Gentiles Only golf club. IE all three would nauseate me to a fairly profound degree. | |
| I wish all clubs would learn to accept the diversity this world has to offer. Gays should not be discriminated against at clubs just as clubs should not discriminate based on race, religion, weight, disability, single/solo or any other “group” that might be identified by someone as different. While it is not my place to question anyone’s parenting approach, I do feel sorry for the children that are being sheltered from some of the diversity of the real world. Sooner or later they will have to deal with the fact that not everyone in this world is the same. I was raised to embrace diversity without prejudice. This does not mean that I like every person I meet but it does mean that I do not pass judgment and I give every person a chance regardless of their “place” in society. I let their behavior be my guide. I wish all clubs would have the same approach. As Jim states in his first sentence above, “As long as they conduct themselves appropriately, just as is expected of heterosexuals, why should it matter?” Simply stated, it shouldn’t! We are all expected to conduct ourselves appropriately whether at a club or out in the textile world. |
