Nudist women and pussy exposure

Over the years I've noted various takes nudist women have about their pussy being seen.

The "pussy-shy": these are the women that take extra special care in making sure their pussy is not seen. They'll cross their legs while sunbathing/socializing, climb out of the hot-tub or pool sideways, and never bend over. It just seems like too much effort.

The "incidentally exposed": these are the women that do not intend for their pussy to be seen; but it happens as a function of just "moving around." Like while bending over to straighten their towel or straddling their lawn chair to apply sunscreen. It's usually a flash; as they'll readjust and hide the moment they realize their pussy can be seen.

The "obliviously exposed": these are the women that don't really put a lot of thought on whether their pussy can be seen or not. They might socialize or do activities with legs open and their pussy in plain view; but it's mostly because they are either very relaxed or not self-aware. My wife fits that category for the most part.

The "purposefully uninhibited": these are the women that have no hang-ups about their pussy being seen. As a matter of fact they consider it completely natural. You can find them laying by the pool or socializing with their legs open and a smile on their face. They are fully aware their pussy is fully exposed and embrace it.
I've known a few women in that category (which includes my ex-wife) and it's hard to not be completely captivated by the sights and variety. My ex had a "clean slit" (tiny labia). I've seen women with hanging lips, women with open vulvas. Sometimes right in front of my face. Beautiful.

    I like the way you categorize the nudist women regarding how they behave concerning their pussies being seen. Even though a woman is a nudist doesn't mean that she isn't shy about displaying her private parts. But a woman who is a true nudist should not be overly shy or self-conscious. At our nudist club, my wife is usually somewhere between "incidentally exposed" and "obliviously exposed", but occasionally she may be more "purposefully uninhibited".

    My wife, who fits more in the "obliviously exposed" category, will occasionally transition to "purposefully uninhibited." It typically happens when she realizes she's "exposed" around other people; and instead of "readjusting", she decides to not worry about it and just be natural and confident. Especially among friends and acquaintances, her thinking is: "eh...they've already seen it all anyway." And she's not wrong; especially since she started shaving bald, her pussy is much more easily seen anyway.

    I think that's a much healthier attitude than being constantly "on guard" about being seen exposed.

    Thinking more about the women at my resort (which btw is not representative of ALL nudists resort), my rough estimate for the "split" is probably 20% "pussy-shy", 40% "incidentally exposed", 25% "oblivious", and 15% "uninhibited." Again, that will vary depending on the day; and many will transition from one to another throughout the day. Added to this is 80% completely shaven, 15% with a landing strip or trim, and the rest with full pubes.

    What that means is that actually relatively few women will socialize/hang out with their pussy in full view, with no hang-ups about it being seen. But most other women will be exposed at some point; although it will mostly be "transitory."

    When I first started many years ago, the "splits" were more along the lines of 50/35/10/5; and 10/50/40. There does seem to be a correlation between the "normalization" of baldness and increase in exposure. I attribute this to two things. First, the removal of pubic hair has naturally made the vulva/labia more visible. For example, when my wife was hairy her labia was not discernable when she stood naked on a paddle-board; but now, it is clearly visible. Second, seeing other women exposed will often decrease self-consciousness/increase confidence about being exposed themselves. This was confirmed by my wife as she transitioned from hairy to bald; and when I asked her about her increased confidence with her pussy being seen, she simply replied that it was "seeing other women's pussy exposed."

    So my anecdotal/unscientific observation is the more women are shaven and not "pussy-shy", the more other women will tend to be less self-conscious about theirs.

    Just a thought...

    Obviously, you've given a lot of thought to this. Although your observations are anecdotal and not scientific, it is fun to think about it. There are so many variables.

    I would say that my wife is in the oblivious category. She doesn't deliberately open it up to view but if it ends up that way she doesn't really care. She was very apprehensive on the way to her very first visit but it turned out that she was afraid that she would stand put from the others because of her shaved pubic area. Once she saw that all the other women present were also shaved she got over it. Now anytime we plan a visit she makes sure to get it shaved the night before.

    My first wife went from pussy shy to deliberate in practically no time at all. She really enjoyed the attention so made sure everyone saw everything.

    [quote]Now anytime we plan a visit she makes sure to get it shaved the night before.[/quote] Same here; ever since she first started shaving bald. Sometimes she'll even do a second pass the next morning to make sure she's completely smooth. She says it's because "everybody else is doing it." She's still in a bit of denial that it's also simply because she likes the way her pussy looks hairless. She's seen the "admiration" on guys' faces at the sight of her bald vulva; and even though she doesn't actively pursue it, she's not immune to its attraction either.

Yes, she likes the way her pussy looks hairless, but it's the admiration of the guys that motivates her. It's just that her discreet behavior enables her to appear proper.

    I'm not so sure. I'm thinking she was after a faultless presentation, but then there is the underlying rationale that it's because it's going to be seen, so perhaps you're right. :-)

    Once your start chatting down hairs, it's easy to get obsessive.

    Not to split hairs...but. (ok, corny pun lol!)

    It can be hard to tell what motivates smooth women to shave bald. It can be as simple as "I just like the way it feels" or "everyone else is doing it and I don't want to be the only hairy one."

    My wife was initially completely opposed to shaving bald. But then we started socializing with other nudists; and most of the women we met were bald. She observed these bald pussies; and comparing them to other women who weren't shaved as well as her own (she trimmed but it was very uneven), she started feeling that bald just "looked better." So her decision to "lop it all off" did stem from a desire to be more "esthetically pleasing." "Liking the way it feels" was a side-effect; but the initial motivation was to "look better naked." Which was confirmed from the positive and approving looks she got from being bald with a now fully visible labia (she's an "outie").

    It's not so much that she wants everyone to look at her pussy; she just likes feeling that if it is seen, it is regarded as "good looking." Vanity can lead to uninhibition lol!

    We males can only guess at what truly motivates a woman to display a smooth pussy at a nudist club or resort, but I like to think that she may get turned on by the idea that the men can see her sexual areas completely bare.

    It should also be taken into account that a lot of women enjoy the sun on their pussies. A girlfriend I had who would normally fall into the very shy category told me that the sun on her pussy made her wet and she would lie on the beach with her legs open.

    There's that too.

    The first time my wife sunbathed legs open, we were at a nudist venue by ourselves and I "challenged her" to tan "fully exposed." She decided to accept my challenge; bending her knees to place her feet on the lounge chair, and letting her legs swing wide open. She got so comfortable that she actually dozed off.
    While she was asleep I took a peek; and saw that her pussy was opened and seemed moist. When she woke up she noticed it too; and I asked her about it.

    She said that being spread open had stretched and relaxed the muscles in her pussy, causing her vulva to open and the clit to be exposed. The "tickling sensation" from the sun and the breeze on her open pussy had clearly aroused her. She was actually quite happy with the experience lol!

    She won't do it around other people though, even though she'd very much like to tan that way. She feels that people seeing her wet open pussy up close is "too much"...

    On my girlfriends first visit to a beach, it isn't a nude beach but people do, she stripped somewhat nervously but but very soon comfortable and loving it.
    They were only maybe a hand full of couples around. As she walked along the waters edge an older guy was pulling a small boat ashore. Maybe forgetting herself she offered to help before rejoining me on the towels.
    Thee older guy, who wasn't naked, came over to thank her and chat.
    As they did i watched as her legs opened giving him a full view of her smooth pussy. Again maybe absent mindedly, maybe she was simply expressing her sexuality.
    Either way i enjoyed him enjoying her view.
    I didn't want to mention it incase she was unaware and didn't want to spoil just how comfortable she found it to be naked in public.

This was similar to when my wife sunbathed nude on an old wooden dock in Key West, Florida in front of other people who had their clothes on. I didn't say anything to her. She just liked being nude.

    [quote]I didn't want to mention it in case she was unaware and didn't want to spoil just how comfortable she found it to be naked in public.[/quote] I also think you made the right decision. My wife has had a couple of these instances. One of these times we were at the resort; and we were a bit away from the crowd, so she decided to just relax and sunbathe on her lounge chair open-legged. An acquaintance of our walked by unexpectedly as my wife was half-snoozing. When he spoke and she became aware of his presence, she rose up - making no attempt to close her legs. He saw her bald pussy in full view as they exchanged a few words. I did not comment during or afterwards because it would have only made her self-conscious. In my wife's case, she had initially been surprised by the encounter. But she was in such a relaxed state that she chose to not alter her position and hide what she figured he'd already seen by then anyway. In her mind the "cat was out of the bag" (pun intended) so there was no reason to get self-conscious. Treating it like a completely normal occurrence - by not saying anything - helps normalize being seen "exposed." It's happened enough times for my wife that - even though she does not seek out that kind of attention - she is not put off when she finds herself "exposed" around other nudists. As a matter of fact she finds it kind of fun!

Being nudists, my wife and I have been in a number of situations where she has been either unexpectedly exposed or more exposed than usual. I find that to be very exciting. I especially love when she is completely naked in front of textiles. Usually, she'll just behave innocently, like nothing is out of the ordinary, but I think she knows the effect that she is having on a person. I don't always say something to her because I'm enjoying what she's doing and wouldn't want to discourage her in any way.

    [quote]I don't think we men can truly know what our women are thinking. [/quote] Many years ago, during my first marriage, I was much more "immature" when it came to such things. My then-wife, after initially being very shy, went through a phase where she decided to not by shy anymore - at all. We were lounging by the pool. I went to the bathroom; and when I came back, I saw her bent over, applying sunscreen to her legs with one leg hiked up on the lounge chair. Her pussy and entire ass were completely visible from across the pool, and I saw some guys "admiring the view." So I walked over and said something to her about it, along the lines of "Hey...everyone can see your asshole..." She gave me a dirty look and a tongue-lashing. I realized then that I had made her self-conscious, and she was pretty mad about it. I learned my lesson that day. I felt I was "protecting her"; but she wasn't looking for protection. It's hard to know whether she was fully aware of oblivious to her exposed posture. But what was clear that the last thing she wanted was for me to bring it up at all. I should have just kept my big mouth shut!

A younger, immature me might have done the same trying to " protect " when it wasn't required.

    [quote]I'm pretty sure she knew what she was doing, and wanted to enjoy doing it.[/quote] Subsequent behavior at resorts would indicate that your assumption was correct. It did appear that she was "testing the waters", so to speak, in terms of being exposed without seeming to be doing it on purpose. And I made the mistake of bringing it up. That did not deter her at all. On our following trip, she took it a step further by shaving bald and choosing a lounge chair right by the pool; and laying there with her legs open and her bald pussy in full view of the entire pool area. This time I kept my mouth shut and never brought it up again. Best to indulge her in her "experimentation." I think for some women - especially when raised conservative - indulging in a bit of "low-key exhibitionism" is a way to liberate themselves from a "taboo" they've carried their entire lives. They just don't want to seem "obvious" about it.
