Personally I like walking around the house without any clothes on or just a pair of boxers or box. briefs. I did that in the dorms in university so it doesn't bother me as I don't have that "victorian" era mindset.

Regardless, last night I was bbqing some food out on the deck with just my boxers on and my neighbour's wife I think it was looks out the window at me and I wave back at her. She gives me this look of disgust and closes the drapes immediately.

Now I don't want to get into any trouble with inspectors or the police, but can people cite you for indecent exposure or something on your own property in the backyard? As I'd love to have sex on my deck sometime with the birds and the bees buzzing about near my waterfall and gazebo but with I'm kinda of worried about my neighbours calling 911 and next thing I know I see a bunch of cherries going off coming up my street lol.

My backyard is fenced but the houses nearby can look into the backyard if they were on the 2nd floor of their homes.

where i live, they can... even if it is in the privacy of their own homes. i have heard of stories (here in pa) where people were cited for indecent exposure because they could be seen/heard from the street.

We're lucky enough to have a very private setting. Unfortunately, the kids are of age where walking around nude isn't good. It takes good scheduling now. lmao

I believe that even if you are on your own property (even inside) you can be cited if someone files a complaint. It may vary from state to state though, so I would check locally.

I love to be naked, and yes, I do wander around my house in the nude quite frequently (every day, in fact) but I do so precisely because it doesn't bother anyone else.

I do not wander naked around my kitchen with the blinds up because I can be seen from the street, and I'm careful when sunbathing in the 'next to nothings' in my garden because I realise while I believe being naked is normal and natural, I'm aware that other people don't necessarily want to see it.

They have as much right to look out of their windows without getting an eyeful of my wobbly bits as I do to wander around in very little, so the unspoken compromise is that I don't walk around where they can see me, and what they don't know doesn't upset them.

When you live close to people you do need to be considerate of their feelings, their beliefs and the ways they wish to bring up their children, regardless of whether you think they're 'Victorian' or not.

Your neighbour was obviously displeased with what she felt was your unnecessary show (I'm afraid a man in his boxers isn't always the most attractive sight, despite how sexy you may feel when you're walking around semi nude) so she exercised her right to look disgusted and close the drapes.

Many would say her behaviour was far less offensive than yours so if I were you I'd think twice about antagonising her further by having sex where she can see you. At best she may be offended by the sight of your naked arse, and at worst she may actually feel threatened, frightened and distressed.

If you want to have sex outside, do so at night, or in a place more private away from home. If you want to be an exhibitionist, do it here at Pixies for a willing and appreciative audience, not some poor unsuspecting woman (not to mention her kids!) who happens to live next door to you.

Good answers.

Around here, yes, you could be cited for indecent exposure. So, you need to be careful. I'm not sure if you were wearing boxers since they're not that different than many swimsuits. Our lawn isn't fenced in and so we couldn't be nude in our back yard, but I wish we could. Keep thinking one day I'd like to have a privacy fence that would make it possible to go nude in the yard. I'd still have to schedule things to avoid the kids, though.

My wife and I have several times spent days/week at a naturist (nudist) resort and loved being able to simply be nude all day. It was wonderful. Sex still required privacy, but just being nude was great.

I love to be naked. However, my kids are around most of the time so I stay clothed. On those very rare occasions when hubby takes the kids for a few hours, I will strip for a while. I love being naked outside and have taken to laying out naked recently. I love to be in the hammock naked. I also love to swim naked but I have to wait until night when the kids are in bed. My yard is privacy fenced and I feel quite secure in it. Well, except for the fact that my neighbor occasionally peeks over the fence to say hi...she only does it in the daytime though. I figure if she does it at night and gets an eyefull, that's her problem. She's cool though and would never report us. I love it when hubby and I make love in the pool...I sit up on the ladder while he eats me...I am quite visible to anyone passing by...oh how that turns me on. We have a nude beach near us. I used to go there in my youth and even stripped several times. I love being in the ocean naked. Hubby and I plan on sex on the beach very soon...at night of course. LOL
