I'm jumping in on this because I've actually dealth with the pressure to become a nudist in my life.
I'm just writing about the thought processes I've had on this subject and nothing more:
My father is a nudist and for the longest time he tried to encourage us to go with him to nude beaches and resorts - etc. I loathed the idea and absolutely refused. When I married my first husband my dad actually had a 'it's okay to be a nudist' talk with him - and lo and behold, not surprisingly, my husband went for it and started walking around naked all the time.
The pressure from a nudist to BE a nudist - I thought it was annoying for my whole life.
When I married for the 2nd time my father approached my new husband about this too and thankfully my husband refused to go along with it.
So what is my thinking? Why don't I like it?
1) I don't like when my breasts spend too much time rubbing against the skin just under my breasts - can't stand it. Especially if it's summer and I'm sweating. It's just gross.
2) My thighs rubbing together for too long *even when I'm wearing a skirt* is very uncomfortable. I actually traveled cross country via flight in a dress and by the time I arrived in my destination my thighs were so sore from rubbing together I was in pure agony. I had to ice my thighs and put neosporin on them to get them to heal.
3) The way my dad went about it was just obnoxious. It was embarrassing. Did he not understand why I don't like being naked constantly? *sigh* I'm comfortable with clothes on most of the time. Eventually I had to tell him to stop talking about it - stop HARASSING me about it - just QUIT it.
4) Sitting on furniture when I'm moist - if I'm not wanting or getting ready to have sex, but instead just being casual like paying the bills - is just gross. What was further gross was knowing my father's bare ass was all over the furniture - yuck.
5) Why is it gross? Because I am a female and do not like KNOWING that I generate body fluids that - you know - aren't pee, aren't feces - and ARE there. I change my panties twice a day to stay fresh. The idea of then spreading that fluid around the house is further gross. I had to require my father carry a towel at all times - but given - men don't PRODUCE fluids like women do and I think the average woman doesn't produce *as much* random fluids like I do. I think a lot of men don't understand this element of being a woman. I know my husband doesn't get it because one time he asked me "why do you change your panties during the day"? - so he had no clue what so ever what I deal with routinely. He's the type of guy who can wear his boxers several times before tossing them in the dirty clothes. Not me. Nope.
6) Nudity full time - for me - robs the appeal and interest in the naked form sexually speaking. With my ex husband I remember really not caring that he was naked all the time. Seeing him naked was no longer a turn on. If he had a hard on - so what. None of it thrilled me and it put a damper on our actually sex life. Because - who cares? So he's naked again. . . whoop de doo. My husband NOW - when I see him naked [getting out of the shower - changing his clothes] he can and does turn me on and we've been married for more than a decade. Nudity IS natural - and thus it is NOT sexually appealing when I see it on a constant basis. You become numb to its psychological effects after a while.
7) My husband, however, did used to encourage me to go without panties in bed. I do sometimes - but most of the time I don't like my pussy and thus my vaginal fluids to rub all over my legs when I'm NOT turned on or wanting sex. I like to remain dry and clean as much as possible. I enjoy the stickiness of it when I'm turned on - but not otherwise. Not when I'm sick, not when I'm tired, not when I'm in a bad mood.
So . . . to sum it up: When I am turned on and wanting / having sex - I'm all for it. Otherwise, clothes on lest nudity in a constant state ruin my happening sex life.

I've always been curious about this: Why do nudists really badger and harass non-nudists to BE nudists? What appeal does having someone else be a nudist have to where people will have a 'it's okay to be a nudist' conversation with a new family member ALL THE TIME? Why is 'no thank you - not interested' NEVER acceptable?
OP: why do you keep asking your wife to do so when she's clearly not interested. You're coming to Ask Olivia as if it's a serious problem that we can give you the answer to? Respect your wife! She's says no time and again them maybe you should just quit before that 'no' becomes 'what in the fuck - are you deaf'?
Maybe you're not as extreme as my father was - but seriously - I found it offensive and embarrassing and ultimate had to give boyfriends the 'my dad's a nudist and will most likely talk to you about becoming one yourself one day - just be polite and tolerate his insanity' As an adult I now see my father [a minister - mind you] as mentally unstable because of his stubborn insistence to push this particular subject. I don't understand his compulsion . . . so, please OP - don't go THAT far.
