Mary, When we purchased our home we were perticularly interested in the private pool which was "mostly" not visible from the neighbors with the exception of the ones who were on the east side "if" they were to go out on the 2nd floor balcony, or if they went to the end of their yard which was higher ground and over looked our pool. So with the slim chance of being seen we really like the idea of having a private pool to enjoy as we liked which is nude. After receiving the keys we decided to paint the house before moving all of our things in, so we got started painting right away, and as to save on cleanup we both painted in the nude and would take a break by cooling off in our pool. So after dropping the girls off at daycare we came back and started painting as we had the day before, only this time after painting for an hour or so we went out to take a swim and after a few minutes my neighbor came walking thru our side gate while I was sitting in waist deep water and my wife laid out on a raft. Needless to say she was a bit shocked, but on the other hand she was the one who intruded on us. So I got out of the pool and walked over and introduced myself to her as she looked around and she noticed we didn't have anything to wrap around us, so we didn't make an effort to look as we were doing anything out of the normal.

I live in the city, and lay out in the back yard quite often in a thong. The neighbor on one side was an old man who had vegitables growing along the fense line. When I put in a new fence -- a wooden privacy fence, he begged me to not put it up on his side, since it would interfer with the sunlight in ways the chain link fence that existed would not. He knew I wore thongs, and his back-yard deck was high enough that even if I had installed the wooden fence, he could have seen me and my friends exposing our buns. I had intended to use the yard sometimes in the buff or as close to the buff as I could go. When I explained this to him, he reluctantly agreed to us wear as little as we wanted -- as long as his precious plants could be maintained. As this neighbor got older and older, he was unable to spend as much time in his garden as before. Soon he was asking me to water his plants since I was "Ready to get wet". I did this at first in my thongs, but gradually started doing it nude since the neighbors in the next house knew about my nudity and didn't mind. Eventually, this house was sold, and a new family from South of the Boarder came to live here. The family was buying the house on a very fast-paced rent-to-buy program that would get him full ownership in 5 years or so. Anyway, I kept to myself and timed my sunning to those times when I didn't expect anyone to be at home. This worked for about two weeks, but eventually, they came home when I was laying out in the buff. I had time to flip over onto my stomach, but the lady of the house nextdoor came to the fence and called me over to discuss something. I expained I was only wearing by birthday suit and she basically said "who cares?" I stood and she had absolutely nothing to say about my nudity, but she did get a grin on her face. I ask her if she minded me wearing so little or nothing at all, and she said "of course not". After this second sign that thongs would be okay (and nudity too), I didn't bother wearing more most of the time. The family has been there about 10 years, and they are the best neighors I have ever had. They take care of their property, watch my house and take in the mail if I am away from home, and treat me to some of the best Mexican food I have ever had. While none of the neighbors are into thongs or going nude, the youngest daughter has started going topfree. New people moved into the house behind mine, and are just as nonchalaunt about nudity and thong wearing as my other neighbors. I wonder if people, especially new neighbors, are more likely to accept thongs and nudity because they don't want to stir up touble in their new homes. I think this goes doublely true when the new neighbor is foreign and tries extra hard to fit in. Many foreign people often have an image of America that includes tollerance to others at all levels of society. This attitude further makes wanting to fit in a big part of their new life style.

Was talking to someone I know in Florida the other day and they had to talk to their neighbor who was having a company add security cameras to the back of their house which were high enough to show over the privacy fence and include the pool of the house behind them. They talked to the neighbor and installation guys about the fact they wanted their privacy preserved because they use the pool nude. The neighbors said- well us too- and the installation guys came up with locations that only included the monitored property and with the ability for the owners to shut off poolside feeds when they wanted. I hope they don't forget to turn it off -- hey look there's Mom and Dad- what are they doing out there??

The house across the street from me sold this week. Every time I saw people looking at the house, I walked out onto my front porch in a small thong or g-string. I wanted any potential buyer to know before they bought that I wore very little on my porch and in my front yard. A very nice, or at least the young daughter appears to be, the Spanish family started moving in yesterday evening. I went over to introduce myself and see if they needed any help. A few minutes later I noticed one of her friends needed his car jumped. He had left the lights on. I went over to help them. His buddy after we got the car started turned off the car and I had to help jump his car again. I told them it was a very nice neighborhood and I was the only weirdo and laughed. The young man whose car I help start laughed and then said. "You look great in your thong." He had seen me take a slow walk to the mailbox on the road in one a couple of weeks ago. I told him that about all I wear in the summer on my porch and in my yard and at the lake. I told him if he ever wanted to try wearing a thong to let me know. The neighbors were building something in the backyard and when I asked the girl what they were doing, she replied building a chicken coup. I'm not so crazy about having chickens across the street, but I can deal with it if they don't mind me wearing a thong or g-string while I'm in my yard doing work.

tobias5711 you said "very time I saw people looking at the house, I walked out onto my front porch in a small thong or g-string. I wanted any potential buyer to know before they bought that I wore very little" I do this frequently, walking out on the street in just a thong, especially when there is an "open house" day for a house they are selling on the street. Let's the people know what to expect if coming to the neighborhood. Hopefully scares of the up-tight and encourages the more relaxed people to move into our neighborhood. I don't specifically know of anyone on my street who bought a house after seeing me out in a thong, but I have had people tell me they moved to my town after seeing me out in a thong, around home or running down the beach. They have told me they want to live in a place where a man can do that unmolested. I have also had families who were looking at houses pull up, roll down there windows and ask questions about the neighborhood, while their kids in the back seats looked on. So obviously they were not worried, or they were teaching their kids not to worry about men in thongs. Yesterday I was out on the street, talking (socially distanced) with five adult neighbors while four of their young kids were larking about and chasing balls. It is normal for the mothers pushing strollers to say Hi, and for the teen and tween kids to wave as they go by on their bikes, skateboards or scooters. Some people regularly exercise using our street, rollerblading, biking or running. One gets to know the regulars, however there have been many more now that most people everyone are on forced vacation. Some exchange greetings and most give a friendly wave or acknowledgment. The more you are out publicly around the home and on the street the more people accept it as perfectly normal.

JM The more you are out publicly around the home and on the street, the more people accept it as perfectly normal. That statement is so true. 95% of my neighbors have seen me in a thong or g-string and only one that I know of doesn't like how little I wear. I end up talking to most of my neighbors. Some even say hello when I don't notice them. Mind you I live in a suburb and nowhere close to a beach or lake. I think attitudes are changing. They might be surprised the first time they see me, but waving and saying hello seems to break the ice. I think most are a little jealous that I have the confidence to go out in public as I do. I have a pair of white almost see-through shorts that I wear with my thong or g-string when I take walks through the neighborhood. Lots of stares but most people that see me will wave and say hello.

I have a sort-of update to post #1. The daughter, Mary, who sometimes went topfree became more and more a thonger, and as the years have gone by, and she moved into college, she seems to like going bottom free as well. Very cute young woman + little or no clothing = quite a distraction for me. Unfortunately, we have had only a hand full of truly nice days so far this spring, so what little thonging I have done has usually been in cooler or cloudy weather. Mary had been seeing me in my thongs and also nude for years and I like to think I had something to do with her decision to dress (or undress) as she wanted. Her parents accepted seeing me nude or in thongs, and only ask me to wear at least a thong if they had company who might see me. They had taught their kids that thongs and nudity were as acceptable as clothing was. Yesterday was a very nice day, warm and sunny, and Mary came over to my house to ask me if she could use my yard to get some sun, since her back yard was quite a mess since they were bringing in topsoil and other stuff in to try to level out some of the low places. Naturally, I said it would be okay. She knew I had seen her laying out in the nude, and said she had asked her parents if she could use my yard in the buff, but that they said it was completely up to me. Everyone in her family had seen me in my thongs, and often nude in my own yard, and they always treated me the same as if I was wearing traditional clothing. Naturally, I told her she could wear as much or as little as she wanted, and that she knew I had no issues with thongs or nudity. She then ask me if a couple of "friends" could come over and use my back yard as well. Again I said that would not be a problem. "Would it be okay if they wear skimpier swimwear or go nude too?" she asked. Again, I said it would be okay. As the day progressed, I assumed Mary's "friends" were girls, but later when I wandered by, I saw they were both young men. Both wore board-shorts, even though she was as naked as a jaybird. She came over, (keeping a politically correct safe distance) and thanked me again for letting her and her friends use my back yard. I told her she and her friends were always welcome. Later when I walked nearby she asked "If we are over here, will you sometimes wear a thong or go naked too? I think I can get them into thongs if they have some encouragement." "Unless someone has an objection to seeing me in a thong or nude, I plan to do the same things I do every year, wear as little as I can." "Mike (one of her friends) has a bikini with him but didn't want to wear it until he knew it would be okay." I said I wouldn't mind if he chose to wear something smaller. I looked over, and saw one of the guys wearing a men's bikini suit with a little bit of a cheeky look in the back. She went over to talk to him, and then he came over to where I was. He asked if it was true that I sometimes wore thongs or even took all my clothes off so I could enjoy the sun. I told him he had heard right. "Cool," he replied. He then ask if he could wear something a "little" smaller than his bikini, and I said "of course. When I came out again, he was laying on his stomach, wearing a very cheeky men's swimsuit with about 2/3's of the bottom back crammed into his ass crack. He had amazing buns. His male companion was still in his board shorts. After the boys left, Mary came over and said Mike promised to bring along a skimpier thong the next time he came. Emanual, the other boy told her he would think about wearing a speedo, but not anything a small as what Mike had worn today. We will have to see. If I know when they will be coming over, I will be sure to wear a thong and find some work to do around the yard or on the back of the house. I will also try to get Chris, a fellow-thonging young man to come over and wear a thong too. Maybe with three other men in thongs, Emanual will be more willing to show off his buns too.

I would urge caution with this experience in the future. I’m not a lawyer, but if those boys had done something to her on your property under your supervision, I’m guessing you could have liability assigned. Especially since most people in the legal world would not be as open to letting a young girl (under 18?) be fully nude in the presence of young males without their parents around. Even though you have the “ok” of the parents, that might not really mean much if a legal situation were to arise. And I’m not saying young males will always act inappropriately, I think most males can control themselves, even at that age. But out of concern for your livelihood and protection you should be cautious.

Nudity is not a crime. Allowing people to be nude is not a crime. Don't panic. Allowing under age people to drink is a crime in most states, so that would be your liability, if you knew or encouraged underage drinking.

My new neighbors moved in two weeks ago. They had seen me several times on my front porch in a thong and saw me get my mail in a g-string before they bought the house. Roberto (changed name) comes over to sit and talk with me on my porch almost daily now. I am always in a thong and g-string when he comes over. He told me he used to go to Hippie Hollow (nude beach on Lake Travis- outside Austin, Texas) when he lived in Texas and today he told me he used to wear a thong to the beach with his then-girlfriend who also wore one. I told him I also visited Hippie Hollow when I lived in San Antonio. He lives with his brother, sister-in-law, nephew, niece, and a worker with a 5 yr old son. All have seen me in a thong or "g". I helped the 5 yr boy pump up his bike tires in a thong. The older teenage daughter's friend told me I looked great in a thong. Couldn't ask for better neighbors.

I have a young European couple that live across from us (30 feet max between windows) we both keep our blinds open and they stay conservatively dressed almost always. I have seen the middle 30s wife in her bikini underwear once or twice, but very rarely. Their MIL is living with them now, and seems the most interested when I'm walking around in my thongs. I will work out in my living room since covid doing yoga and lifting weights, they see me bent over and twisted lots. I assume they don't mind, or maybe are voyeurs. When I'm bent over and can see behind me sometimes I notice they are being obvious about watching. I have gotten over the husband watching, but do prefer when its the wife and MIL. its an ineresting dynamic where we don't wave or acknowledge each other but we both definitely know we can see in eachother's places. what do y'all think they're thinking? my wife stays clothed and doesn't walk around in thongs like me but we are both fit and active and young. She does wear her thongs at the pool. anyhow I wonder what they think? it seems like they come from a modest Turkish culture - probably muslim, but they seem to watch/not mind at all that I'm wearing tiny pouch thongs all the time.
