Before we get going, I just want to say to the commenters here, get your minds out of the gutter.
The Nude abides.
Personally not interested, but this is really not an activity where there’s much risk that normal clothing would protect against, as far as I can tell. Am I missing something?
Apparently you’re missing your plate armor every time you go bowling. I’m scandalized.
Whatever you do, do NOT sit on the ball return.
Apparently I’ve been making bad fashion choices all this time because very little of my wardrobe includes Kevlar or armored padding.
But the hand blower, that’s A-OK.
We used to play co-ed naked Ultimate Frisbee in college, against other schools.
That said, it was a hippy-ish New England liberal arts college and there was occasionally (though not always) a fair amount of weed and beer involved.
Rather more chance of injury than in bowling, I think, but I never knew of anyone getting hurt.
even as a bowler, i fail to see why this needs to be a thing.
Tell me you’re not a nudist without telling me you’re not a nudist…
tell me you’re thankful without telling me…
I’m all for the existence of an activity like this. I don’t think I could participate in it due to cultural programming and self-consciousness, but I want things like this to exist for people more free than I am.
Bowling shoes required, though. You don’t want to see the injuries associated with not allowing people to slide when they throw the ball.
This reminds me. I need to get my thumb hole re-drilled.
Hey, if you can manage the flipping and flopping around in nude volleyball, you can definitely handle a little wibble-wobbling during nude bowling.
Because if you do, they will not.
