My wife and I choose not to wear clothes when in our home, on our yacht or traveling in our motorhome and invite others to join us at their comfort level. We practice good hygiene, and always have a towel between bare skin and furniture. We do it as we find it healthy, relaxing and socially acceptable.

Flame away!!


You have a yacht and a trailer? That's interesting.


OP here - yes that would be a 50ft sailboat to be specific and motorhome, not trailer. We tow our vehicle behind our motorhome, unlike people that tow their trailers behind their pickup trucks.

Bless your heart you have confidence few people have anymore.

I for one has my nipples pierced at age 48, and don’t often wear a bra,
the piercing clearly visible under many of my outfits including swimwear.
I prefer to drive my Subaru Outback to your BMW. Our other car is a Jeep Wrangler
Panties are no longer my thing, commando is far more comfortable.
DH and I sleep naked.
We have a hot tub in our yard and don’t allow bathing suits to be worn in it.

People can think what they want about us, but we are happy and will continue
to do our own thing, whether you or others think it’s trashy or not!!


You force your guests to be naked in your hot tub? How very rapey of you.


Understandably the homeowners don't want the detergents/chemicals/oils/chlorine from the swimsuit fabric in
their hot tub - it has nothing to do with being 'rapey' is that even a word?

We have a similar rule for hot tub use in our home. It has nothing to do with sex, its about cleanliness. Have you
ever maintained a hot tub? Unless cared for properly and the water treated, a hot tub is the breeding ground for a
multitude of bacteria and organisms. Those bubbles you see floating on the surface of a hot tub are body oils, lotions,
and other chemicals/detergents that are carried into the bubbling hot water. A showered "naked" person is cleaner
than a person wearing a swimsuit. We have a shower near the hot tub for people to use.

Guests in our home understand our hot tub use policy, and if they feel differently, they are under no
obligation to get in the hot tub. They are welcome to enjoy the pool and sauna wearing their swimsuits.We have
no children living in our home, and 99.9% of our guests are child free as well. This is about adults being adults.


Really? So you sit in your hot tub naked with your naked friends? This is fascinating to me.

Either a lot of people here have demented notions of what it means to be trashy or I'm way out of touch.


That's the way it is in the alternate universe of the DMV.

No one has explained how drinking a soda out of its container is somehow a sign of low class.


It is! Use a glass.

You still haven't given any reason why drinking a soda out of its can is an indicator of low class. Soda cans are typically (and maybe even the majority of time) taken on the go, which is a circumstance where pouring the soda into a glass makes no sense.

I'm sitting at my desk in my office, with a can of soda I picked up from the office fridge. What point would there have been to me searching for a glass to pour the soda into?

Your opinion on this is based on nothing, frankly.

I think this nicely illustrates the difference between what is trashy and what is classy: somebody’s arbitrary, completely unsupported and unsupportable opinion.



It is also correct.

I think it's fine to drink from a can if you're sitting on the sofa. If you drink a soda at the table, however (cue discussion of how only water and wine should be consumed with a meal), it should be decanted into a glass. I don't judge people who don't do this as trashy, though, it's just my little thing about making my table look nice. I also don't like condiment bottles on the table. I freely admit this is persnickety and will accept all judgement on it.

I ate a combo at Taco Bell and ordered a Mountain Dew with my meal.

And I enjoyed it!

I love candy crush

I wear workout clothes all the time.

My yard has looked like hell for two years (and I don’t care) (but this is because we have been working for two years on drainage issues, we are somebody going to have nice landscaping but for now I’m sure we look trashy).

I believe pets are very far away from human beings. I think they should be treated well but their needs should come far, far after the needs of humans. I would never pay 5K to save a cat, for instance. I think this stems from being raised around farmers in fly-over country.

You’re the second poster who’s mentioned this. I’m a nail biter too, but I’ve never thought of it as trashy. Just anxiety.

Speak one language.
Have a significant number of tattoos.
Say the f word way too much.
Poop with the door open sometimes.
Drink coors lite.
Sleep with my dogs.

I have never strived to fit in with a certain "class" - I enjoy being who I am. Although our HHI is in the seven figures, my dh and I both have jobs that are not considered high class and allow us to still get our hands dirty.
