AGORAPHOBIA

Agoraphobic and Naked

I haven’t done my laundry since March.

I don’t know if you’ve been watching YouTube Live, Facebook Live or Twitter Feeds (or even the news) lately, but it sure doesn’t look like a good time to leave the house.

Even the $1200 dollar stimulus check from the POTUS was put to good use by me. I ordered bottles of wine and steaks online that were delivered right to my door.

How We Live Now

You see, I chose to start working at home after the pandemic got real. The weeks and months have dragged on and on, but working from home has lots of advantages and if you don’t have roommates or pets then there are a lot of things you can do naked around your house.

  • Have you ever washed your dishes naked? Me too.
  • Cooking naked? Be careful with hot grease and oils. (I might need to invest in an apron soon, no doubt.)
  • Exercising indoors naked is no problem. Squats, jumping jacks, dumbbells, running in place— all doable.
  • Sitting at my laptop naked and “contemplating my navel” is now my daily practice at 6AM. (And no, I don’t have a band aid placed over my laptop camera lens!)
  • And there’s nothing like turning the AC to high and sitting in my easy chair in my birthday suit.

The Zoom Room

The only exception is when I Zoom conference. Then I put on clothes and even pants because I like to cross my legs a lot and they always enter the camera view, but right after conferencing is over I pull my shirt off quicker than you can say Bert Kreischer.

A Safe Place

I know it sounds like I’ve “given up” by staying home so much without my clothes on, but honestly, I have given up…completely.

I watch headlines from the mainstream media where they ask questions like, Will America ever be the same? and I shrug and go crank up the AC because it’s 90 degrees outside, right now!

Steppin’ Out

When I do go out I walk to the grocery store and I’ve even been to a bar once or twice with my painters mask on and I can tell you COVID-19 makes everything more creepy than I care for like have you ever tried to talk to the opposite sex at a bar with a mask on? Yeah…me neither!

Nature Is Normal

Taking a gander at Wikipedia you will find “Nudism,” or “Naturism” as it is referred to, has been practiced all over the world. It is a non-sexual activity than can be done publicly or privately with groups of people and normally happens in nature. Most nudist happenings are likely to take place on the beach, in saunas and in swimming pools.

A Naked World

The first European country to have resorts to be naked in was Croatia and fifteen percent of their tourism industry is made just for naked people. Finland is known as the most liberal when it comes to Naturism and it’s not as taboo there as in most other countries.

My Naked Future

I guess my next vacation will be at a Croatian nudist colony or maybe I can change careers and sign up for an adult webcam chat room where I can get tips for showing people my nether regions, but whatever I decide to do “exhibitionist wise” in the immediate future it will surely be in the privacy of my own home and away from prying eyes that could not possibly understand how “cool” it is to beat the heat this summer by staying home and being naked.
