Hardly worth talking about, but in the spirit of the OP I'll share something I learned a long time ago about tanning "stuff".
Somewhere around 1968 or 1969 I kept company with Sue.?ÿ Sue was you quintessential hippy chick.?ÿ She wore wire-rimmed glasses and granny dresses...with nothing under them.?ÿ ?ÿHer lack of underwear was probably the reason I embraced the hippy movement.
Weekends would find us on some sand bar down on the river being free spirits.?ÿ If the weather was cooperative we would be naked free spirits.?ÿ Life was so simple back then.
Anyway, as anybody that has worn flip flops all day on a boat will tell you, the sun has a way of getting to tender skin that doesn't usually see much sunlight.?ÿ One day I procured a rather uncomfortable sunburn on an important part of my male anatomy.?ÿ Hurt like hell...and took way too long to heal.
I have intimate knowledge as to why Adam sought out a fig leaf in the book of Genesis.?ÿIt had nothing to do with Eve or that snake.?ÿ I can only hope that all those idiots that feel the need to toast their gonads get what they deserve.?ÿ?ÿ
Decades ago there was a week of the Tonight Show where they kept bringing up the fact that Ed McMahon had visited a nudist colony.?ÿ The result was as you explained.?ÿ Ed had already been overheated but Johnny roasted him all week, anyway.
Popeye's solution was simple.?ÿ He stuck it in Olive Oyl.
I can speak from experience when I use to go run around and soak nude at the hot springs...
Certain "parts" definitely get fried in the sun, and on us girls too! Ouch!!! ????ÿ
Back when I was a teenager a nearby lake had what they called sunboards.?ÿ The idea was take one to float on as you went to places on the lake where the water was deeper than you preferred for swimming.?ÿ It was your life raft, of a sort.?ÿ The other option was to lay on it and soak up a few rays.?ÿ One of the girls fell asleep for a few hours.?ÿ She was wearing a bikini and a sort of mesh (fish net) thingy, whatever it was called.?ÿ She ended up with a terrible sunburn interrupted by blurry little lines forming squares and diamonds.
A friend of mine, from the PNW, tells a story from his youth:
Him and a friend of his, decided to head south one summer. Seems they heard about a beach, Black's Beach, a little north of San Diego. Clothing optional. Seems a long way to travel, just to get a glimpse of...well, you know...
Anyway, like you would expect; early 70's and pink skin in sun like you don't see very often in a rainforest, leads to red skin that burns and itches, at the same time...
Just glad it wasn't me!
It was reported that the fence around the local nudist colony had a hole in it.
The police are looking into it.
What in the name of Jubilation T. Cornpone is that??????
We are on different frequencies, today, good buddy.?ÿ Not saying that's necessarily a bad thing, though.
