I Can't Stand Clothes

[Kalinychta]

I really, really, really, really hate wearing shoes.

Just by soft clothing only.

But are the sides where the fabric is kind of wrapped together on the sides of the inside of the shirt where the tag is called seams?

Just cut off the things that bother your skin, lol.

Have you tried getting some seamless shirts to wear as a base layer perhaps?

 

[Christine Jarvis]

Well I thought if I cut the sides/seams off of the sides of the shirt it’ll rip and ruin the shirt.

And in the inside of the clothing where the fabric is knotted up on the side ( I think it might be called seams) it bothers my skin horribly and so painful that it feels like my skin is peeling off from an awful sunburn and I’m getting poked by needles all over my body. And when it’s in my skin I can’t think about anything else other than how painful it is. I just don’t know what to do.

If it's a T-shirt, sock or undergarment, you could try wearing it inside out.

Where would some good places be to get seamless shirts?

Use the search term "seamless tee shirt"....or whatever kind of shirt
you're looking for and you will get some results.

I used "seamless tee shirts" and got

Well I’ve also looked into seamless underwear but the edges on the inside keep coming apart and still irritating my skin

It’s not just the seams in the underwear it’s the bottom on the inside where it looks like the fabric is attached but it looks like it was cut or ripped which bugs my thighs and irritated them

Having worn clothes for the last 64 years I can say I have resigned myself to the discomfort of seams and clothing in general.

I'm a big fan of nudity but that is reserved for when I'm alone or with people who are comfortable with it, the climate is right, and there's no tension about having to suddenly throw clothes on because there's someone at the front door or I need to go outside. Also, I hate having to pull the shades. Makes me feel like a prisoner or that I'm doing something wrong. So I spend most of my time clothed.

I like to wear things that are loose and soft cotton. I am sometimes told that I must have lost weight because of it. My wife thinks I dress like an old man. Big fan of loose-fitting robes and the basic towel wrap around the house.

When I go hiking or backpacking, straps and belts and pads are inevitable and very uncomfortable. Wrap terrycloth around the annoying ones. But the pack stays on even when nothing else does.

Sorry, but I had to laugh as I think there is nothing more scary than naked bodies. Things natural, of beauty? No, absolutely not. I sport the body that looks like a shark attack victim due to extensive surgeries, so I am prejudice. But I understand the clothes sensory thing. Those idiotic labels at the back of your neck are always the first to go & there is a new sports clothe out that is supposed to be good for moisture transfer. Yikes, creepy - feels like being wrapt in kitchen cling-wrap.

I've done quite of bit of very public nudity in addition to the more pedestrian nudist club stuff. Just because I got old and operated on isn't going to stop me. It is about freedom and acceptance and loving what you have rather than what you wish you had. You might catch me on a long hike in the backcountry. Or the World Naked Bike Ride LA or the San Fran Bay to Breakers. Or on a stage doing a comedy routine.

Scary only exists as a part of novelty. Aesthetics are irrelevant. Let the young kids worry about that.

I admit I don't do strip-o-grams any more. Not much market for senior citizens. Almost had a figure modeling gig to supplement my meager retirement but COVID shut down the community colleges.

Hang at a nudist club for any length of time and you'll discover other bodies like yours. Nobody cares a whit about surgeries or age or weight. And soon you'll find you don't care either.

You have made me blush, hilarious. Merry Christmas for everyone. I hope the world gets better soon.

 

[SusanLR]

I'm a natural nudist the same as Au Naturel.
Live in a hot climate and a house that has no others near to worry about windows.
No one comes to visit if you don't have friends.

I'm older also and have big surgery scars. Had liver cancer ten years ago.
You can imagine what my stomach looks like. I thought I would never feel right about
showing it again, but, I decided what the heck. Other older people at the pool and in nudist
resorts aren't there to show off their physique.
Now I just feel natural again.
I only wear clothes at home if I'm cold or when I have to go out in public.
My houseshare partner is male and he is comfortable with nudity too.

We have a non-sexual existance together. That only shows clothes aren't there to hide
shame.

I should do some studying into how and when it became illegal to go topless or nude.
Merry Christmas to you and everyone too!

Only Aspies understand this, say this to a neurotypical & they break blood vessels. The nice thing for Xmas will be the absence of visitors for me. I have things to do like planting out Moon Flowers, a collection of Sunflower types, & cactus zinnias. I have art work to do & all fully clothed! Actually bought myself some Sun protector clothing - Sparms & Neck Gaiters - I have really bad skin cancer. My arms look like bleeding slabs of butchered meat, my doctor is disgusted with me. I take chemotherapy & am sunlight sensitive. I thought the garments might cause me some discomfort, but they are surprisingly cool & noninvasive. Even in the privacy of my abode I dress; I make an effort. People always note my matching outfits.

Why would a doctor, of all people, find it disgusting? He's an f-ing doctor. This is his job. Find another doctor if you can or confront him about it if you can't

Hmm... what would an "artificial" nudist be like?

 

[artful_aspie]

Now, now, Au Naturel do not grab the wrong end of the stick. My doctor is an excellent specialist who explained to me the dangers of my chemo & I was in the Sun too long. By & by, I should point out living in the regions of Australia has some real drawbacks, the nearest other specialist in my type of skin cancer is over a 1 000km away. He was very nice about it & I was packed in ice; I had pain relief for my pain. But he explained I could die suddenly at any time, the chemo is so toxic, so I must be more careful.
Strange thing to discuss here. Do any other people with ASD have high pain tolerances? I have withstood some extreme pain situations without reacting immediately. Consequently, the damage is worse. Everything from burns to kidney stone colic to being punched in the face! What are your feelings?
Oh, by the way, artificial nudists come in boxes from certain suppliers of naughty things - saw a program on TV. Apparently, whole groups of people today only engage with fake plastic people.
