Thailand Experience with CMEN Friends CMEN Friends Thailand Experience 2011 You are cordially invited to join an exotic two week tour of Thailand, October 23 - November 6. This incredible Thailand adventure will feature 3 parts of Thailand, with some tours included, and plenty of time to just enjoy being there. Thailand Experiences since 2007 have been successful and a wonderful experience for all who attended, so we have decided to do it again! While CMEN Friends cruises and tours typically include naturist activities they are generally not all nude events.
Why nude social and recreational activities?
A Naturist is one who enjoys being nude, preferably in an outdoors setting, for social and recreational activities. We believe that the naked human body is to be accepted, respected, cherished, and enjoyed. We enjoy the natural freedom of being without clothes whenever possible and practical. Being naked makes one more open and honest about himself, and more accepting of others. If clothes make the man, then nudity makes everyone more equal. Come join the growing number of gay men that have discovered male bonding au naturel! Gay men everywhere are discovering the enjoyment of gathering together with other men for nude camaraderie, unequaled in any clothed situation, and the freedom to be found in non-judgmental body acceptance. CMEN is affiliated with Gay Naturists International and is among nearly 200 men's naturist groups throughout North America, the Pacific Islands and Europe. GNI and its affiliated clubs now have over 6,000 members in 12 countries who enjoy nude recreational and social activities. This web site also includes links to Naturist Community News and Activities including nude beach listings and other naturist events; Gay Community News and Activities including pride festivals, street fairs and rodeos; and links to Naturist Friends and to National Associations.
