Naked Men Talking: What are you hungry for?
Strip off and share some food and friendship.
As part of my podcast, Naked Men Talking, I've been exploring all sorts of different approaches to naturism and the power of getting your clothes off.
As a result of the podcast, I've connected with a really strong community of men in London who coordinate opportunities to get naked through the Naked Mates platform.
This has led me to test out a number of different event formats - partly to help me explore different experiences of naturism but mainly because I like getting naked with other guys.
Which is how I came to be hosting a regular series of naturist events focused on food.
There's lots of different options when it comes to getting naked and sharing food. I really enjoy pot-luck dinners - where everyone brings along something to share. However the most recent was a cooking demonstration hosted by Emi.
Emi is a dietician and so the dish he was demonstrating was a vegan gnocchi dish with a creamy porcini mushroom sauce - using blended cashews to create the creaminess.
It was a group of 11 guys in total. Everyone brought their own drinks and Emi provided the ingredients for the meal.
Emi talked us through each stage of the process and there were plenty of opportunities for everyone to get involved in the preparation of the dish.
This wasn't a serious food event - there was a lot of chat and laughter. The cooking demonstration was part of the experience but the event was also an event to enjoy hanging out with a group of interesting guys.
This was a social naturism event - non-sexual. Obviously, there's an undeniable sexual energy when you have a group of naked men in a room, but this isn't a sex party.
Emi's passion for healthy food was contagious and we all got to enjoy a delicious meal of gnocchi which I'm definitely going to add to my repertoire.
The next naked food event is going to be a Pot Luck dinner - it's scheduled for 20 February. This event will be free to attend but numbers are limited - you can register via NakedMates.
