Nah, they were not only family. There were also friends of the family.

I don't remember it correctly, maybe. It was pretty foggy (well, duh

), and I don't think I paid exact attention to that.

Well, I had the unfortunate opportunity to get a bath from my folks a few years ago (wow, it was like, 6 years ago!) when I got home dead drunk and fell asleep in front of the door (and it was kinda raining outside).

So, that's the last time they've seen me naked.

But, I don't really think I'd like to see my parents naked. And especially nekkid.

I wish we had naked sauna's here on Iceland. People really should be more comfortable with their own and other's nakedness, in my opinion.

Isn't it too cold in Iceland for visiting the sauna naked?

Sorry, couldn't resist...I actually would like to go to Iceland. Amazing place.

Hehe

My drunken bare ass has been caught on camera loads of times, but there's nothing beter than walking naked round your own flat

I prefer the Russian banya, which also involves branches and thwacking.

Eh, it shouldn't be especially foggy in a real Finnish sauna. Are you talking about a steam sauna or?

A real Finnish sauna also involves branches and thwacking. It's not as common as before though.

I'm one of those incredibly lucky people who have a sauna in my backyard, and is it ever fabulous!! Clear cedar(smells wonderful!), 6' x 8' inside, upper and lower bench, stainless steel heater with rocks for steam--we have it set to get up to about 185 degrees fahrenheit.

And the point (other than gloating

)? If anyone ever found me in that sauna in any state other than naked, I'd need to get my head examined. That goes for anyone smart enough to get in there with me.

There is nothing improper about nudity in the right context, I don't care who's around! And it is a good idea, I think, to teach children to be comfortable with nudity.

Definitely not! I think the humidity is something around 15% without steam, and 30% with steam. All the steam does is bring on the sweat faster and more intensely--you don't really see much difference.

Might be. Well, it wasn't too foggy, but there was steam. In one corner there was an oven with Volcano stones, and from time to time, they poured water over it.

Yeah, I don't see what Jaz's problem is. I mean, I'm perfectly comfortable with her being naked.

I don't know if that's good or bad.

Anyway, I wish I was naked right know, being naked when the thermometer hits above 40°C should be mandatory

Are you at work right now? If yes, then try it at home. Trust me, it is really worth it.

I feel uncomfortable all the time, regardless of my state of (un-)dress...

Try singing some Monty Python songs in public: It will be the other people's turn to feel uncomfortable (in your presence).

But seriously, you will be too preoccupied to think about feeling uncomfortable, while singing silly songs (Ooh, alliteration goodness!)

What if we sing silly song while being naked?

Anyway, being uncomfortable is a state of the mind, just don't think about that and let other other people worrie about it... unless they start throwing things at you
