Title: Do you go naked?
Post by: Gomboman on December 02, 2005, 12:58:53 am
I'm sure this has been done before but not since I've been here.  At night, when it's just you and whoever, do you use a suit or go naked?  The Terminator doesn't need to reply to this poll. ;D

I'll start: Naked, unless my next door neighbors are having a BBQ.

I've never gone from the house to the spa in the buff, but I have slipped off the trunks once inside the spa, if it's dark out and no neighbors out and about.

Au-Naturale is my preference. I do however wear a robe until I get out to the tub, then quick "drop and dip". ;D

Me, too. I'll usually hot tub in the raw.
At least after the sun goes down! Considering my body, I consider it common decency. Not to mention a public service! :O

I have a couple acre lot with a thick border of cedars, so I rarely have trunks on unless we have guests...we've got friends and family who drop by unexpectedly, so there's a pair of trunks hangin with my towel and robe on the robe tree, in case I hear a car come in the driveway.

I need to install a motion sensor light on the corner of the house so I see it trip on, in case I don't hear a vehicle over the jets.

I have a set up that sounds similliar to Keatings; a couple of acres  surrounded by woods.  We are lucky if we wear clothes  at all, not to mentaion at the very least while in the water.  :o   Folks have learned that when comming down the driveway to beep the horn.  ;)

I've yet to find a realiable, affordable driveway alarm.


It actually feels odd and slightly uncomfortable to be wearing wet swimming trunks, but we keep robes handy in case anyone pops over.

In the buff is the only way to go!  I have a privacy fence on one side of my deck and my other neighbor is a fair distance away, but I warned them already that if I'm outside heading to my tub in my robe, someone's about to get nekkid and wet! :o

One of my customers invited me to his Halloween party one year but I was already committed to another one.  He came in a few days later and told me they had 17 people in their Grandee.  When I asked how they managed that, he replied "When no one's wearing bathing suits, you can sit closer together."

His wife was Ms. Nude Texas in the early 80's.  She's very buoyant.

So... I tried it.  Not diggin it too much.  I'm too nervous if others can see me (doesn't help the neighbors pried open part of the fence in front of the hot tub) and if I'm sitting up too high in the seat and whatnot.  Not to mention I dropped my bathrobe in the tub getting in  trying to be discreet so when I got out that thing was freezing ice cold.

No to change the direction of this thread but Brooke, your neighbors pulled part of the fence open? After all that work you put into getting that fence and installing it?  I guess since I already have issues with my neighbors on both sides of me, I'm a bit sensitive but if my neighbors even set foot near my hot tub........you'll be reading about me in the paper!

Paint the side of the board that faces them RED before you nail it up. Or if you're artistic, paint a picture of an eye on it. They'll get the hint.

Hi there...

Newbie here. I thought I would ask this questions here - but if anyone knows of a place more appropriate, please advise.

We just got our brand new HotSprings Grandee delivered this week and we love it. We found out VERY quickly that this is definitely better in the nude. NO question about it. BUT - dh is convinced that out neighbors could report us for indecent exposure if they wanted to. We are not CLOSE to any neighbors. They could see - IF they were really trying hard... I am wondering if anyone knows what the law states in regard to this matter. We are in NJ, if that matters...

Thanks for your kind consideration.

Title: Re: Do you go naked?
Post by: NE-Phil on March 04, 2006, 06:02:34 pm
DaisyBug08016,
I don't know the laws in NJ - nor do I know the laws here in upstate NY but our preference is the same - no clothes.
Then again, discretion is necessary. We live in a city block and all of the houses are two story including a 2 story senior citizens apartment SE of us about 50 ft away.
If we go in during the day, we wear swimsuits. Once we're in we have the option of removing them. They won't be able to see anything at that time as our tub is not on the ground level.
At night, we leave the lights off and don't bother with the suits.
I hope this helps.

Phil

Yes - it is not like we go running around in the nude (what a weird world we live in that people care so much about the naked human body - I mean really - never mind all the violence IRL and on TV - let's get worried about our neighbors hopping into their hot tub nude... )

My dh is a little over-worried that people are going to "tell" on him... I have no idea why. We don't bother anyone. It is not like we give them any REASON to want to annoy us... And I really refrain from calling the police when they all go off shooting their shotguns in celebration at New Years eve and the 4th of July - and well - darn near anything else...

But I digress... Thanks for your input!

Post by: Brookenstein on March 05, 2006, 03:02:10 pm
I asked the same question when I was first looking... Someone posted the law (LtDan maybe), I may go back and try to find the post.  If memory serves, I think you are fine as long as there is reasonable amount of privacy expected, but that gets into the grey area of what is reasonable.  My neighbors behind me are all above me on a slope, but we have a 6' fence on 3 sides.  The neighbors would have to be up against the fence and peering over the fence to see something.  Well... then there is the street side, we added a bamboo fence to give privacy from the street.

Daisy, if you've got any friends (or friends of friends) in law enforcement, you might inquire as to the laws...I think if you take reasonable precaution (10' concrete walls with razor wire over the top should be good) to be discreet, things should be alright....send your neighbors cookies over the holidays, maybe put up a lattice-style fence on the most obviously open side... *shrug* the only people I know in NJ don't worry about clothing....they frequent some nude beach up that way, and attend parties that make my hair curl, so maybe we're a little more reserved here in the midwest.

That could be.  I don't have any close by neighbors that I'd even want to see naked, and I'm sure the ones close enough to see our spa think the same about me.
 
 This reminds me of a call that came in to our local PD a couple years ago.  Someone called the our police to report someone running around in the buff.  This was during the mid morning, if I recall.  The police came out, looked around, didn't see anything, so the went to talk to the person who called them.  The cops said they didn't see anyone at all, let alone someone naked.  
The lady said, "No, no, you have to climb up on my coffe table and look over across the street to that window.  
The police also noticed that the woman had a pair of binoculars on the same coffe table.  
Apparently she had nothing better to do.
True story, got published in the police report section of our local paper.

No, I think they told the complainer that the person was in the privacy of their own home.  IIRC, this persone who called the police is one of those people with a lot of spare time on their hands, and not a lot going on, so she finds excuses to call 911.
Good thing that calling 911 in our county doesn't require an actual emergency.

I've spent a lot of hours listening in on the phone calls  in our 911/dispatch center, and it's amazing what people call about.  Some of these callers are on a first name basis with some of the dispatchers.

I go in the buff, day or night, as I have a fairly private backyard with no 2-story houses nearby. Had an interesting thing happen the other day, though......

Last week I worked emergency shifts, which meant having mornings free, then being at work till the wee hours.

Day 1- get up sorta late (still jetlagged fom vacation)- looking forward to my first hot tub SOAK in over 2 weeks......and there are at least 12 men on my neighbor's roof, tearing off the old one to replace it! Grrrrrrr- no soak for me.
Day 2- same thing- wake up to the sound of construction, and yep, there they all are, so I soaked late at night AFTER work.
Day 3- Same damn thing.......WHEN will that roof be done?
Day 4- Wake up to blissful silence- ahhhhhh, no roof workers! Head outside, open it up and hang up my robe (I'll include here that the robe stand is several feet from the tub)....and hop on in. As I lay there relaxing, after about 15 minutes I sort of notice that there is "noise" in my neighbor's yard, but somehow it does not fully process in my brain. My favorite seat is next to the cover lifter, so there is basically a wall right next to me, so I see nothing, and I'm facing into my own yard, anyway. Finally done enjoying the water, I stand up, and yep, there are about 5 guys on the roof. I'm either REALLY luck that they could not see me from the roof because of the cover, or they have already seen their full and are carefully averting their eyes, because NONE are looking my way. I duck back into the water, behind the cover, scoot to the edge, and crawl over it, trying to stay as low as possible, but my robe is several feet away, and in the direction that I'm only going to get more visible. I grab it as quick as I can, never look back up, and head for the house. I didn't go back out to close the lid or add chlorine for over an hour.

I only wear a suit during the day or when I have company over.  I'll echo what Drewstar said, it now feels odd and uncomfortable to wear a wet bathing suit, not to mention waaaay colder now that it's fall!  Most of my friends don't understand this at all, apparently never having tried it (or maintaining a good front!).
