Interesting opinions. Just for the record, my parents were fully supportive; it was only my bio-mom who freaked as she couldn't get past the naked pictures (child pornography???) of me. It was all about leading by example and 'Hi, I' a nudist. Naked bodies are good but naked pictures are bad.' would be hypocritical. Anyway, that’s her baggage, not mine but I was so messed by the whole thing I just shut everything down. So I guess she wins, anyway.
Also, I never gave out my home address though I did supply three e-mail addresses for contact. Like, I'm a total idiot? (or fucking stupid, as my bio-mom put it) Yes, I did say I live in Alberta and anyone who wanted could find out that was Edmonton (pop. about 1 mil) but no one went a-stalking and I didn't get any (well, very few) weird e-mails. I choose what to do and what to say and my parents helped me and offered their opinions/criticisms the whole way. I also had some great input from some members of the nudist community (especially Jan of netnude) who really helped me fine tune my site. The version on the ‘wayback’ site was archived when my site was still pretty raw (yes there were some links to ‘adult’ material as I was trying to figure out were I was taking the ‘occupation sex’ segment).
Anyway, it’s all history now. I am thinking about bringing it back because it had such great info links but I (as in, my person) may be less in-your-face. We’ll see.
