Historic?
My source said that our final photo of a hippie on a beach was historic without giving any provenance whatsoever. The hippie is quite well built and good looking, historic or otherwise.
Ah, the 60s...I was in college, smoked my share of weed, but never got to attend a big outdoor festival where going naked was "the norm." So my bareass self just swam at the Y and in my college swim class and "men's hours" at the pool. Of course, I didn't mind seeing all those other guys' gear swinging free.
I did make it to a few outdoor festivals, but didn't see much male nudity, mostly topless females. We did swim naked at Lake Travis nearly every weekend in the warm part of the year, and that's where the men took it all off. Happy times.
Actually, my skinny dipping goes back to the 1950s when I learned to swim nude in an irrigation pond on my family's ranch in Texas. As nakeswimmer says, growing up in the country makes a difference.
When I was seven, my cousins and I would look at the underwear ads in the Sears catalog. They looked at the women, and I went to men's pages. That's when I knew I was different.
Great post! Here's to the Hippies that gave us so much. I only wish that their culture was not more enduring.
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed the set, vv.

DeleteAt least you got to swim naked! That was before my time ( I was a toddler in the late '60s).
DeleteI was born in 1983. I only know about skinny dipping because I grew up in the country.

DeleteFrom 1960-1969 I went from age 1 to 10 but by 1967 I knew I was queer…or at least I knew males intrigued me more than females.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean, something was in my head around 1965 by 1971 I had it figured out. I've never looked back! Enjoyed this one Jerry!
