Up until I was about 25 years old, I was always acutely shy and embarrassed about my private parts. Since as long as I can remember, I had a strong awareness of the need to keep my private parts private, covered, hidden, and unseen. The very worst thing that could ever possibly happen is for them to be exposed and seen.
...
In my early twenties, I began to think to myself: This is intolerable, and I need to begin to do something to overcome this.
I began to hatch a plan to force me to overcome my fears.
I had to come out of my ENM shell.
Has anyone else experienced anything like this or understands this?
If anyone is interested, I’m happy to post the details on the above 7 events.
I can deeply relate to this, the worst thing I could imagine was being seen naked. I was terrified of getting pantsed. I was especially afraid of older stronger kids that I saw roughhousing each other all the time, knowing they could easily overpower and take my clothes and there would be nothing I could do to stop them (which fortunately for me never happened). Even changing in the swimming pool locker room I'd always change under a towel to not be seen naked.
I've seen home video VHS tapes of my young toddler self being carefree running around the house naked so I clearly wasn't always this way. I'm not sure where it began exactly, maybe just from my parents telling me I need to keep my clothes on.
Or maybe it started with cartoons or media growing up, I remember watching an episode of Arthur where he rips his pants and is devastated to be seen in his underwear and everyone laughs at him.
Or that scene in The Parent Trap where she loses a game of poker and has to jump into a lake naked and they steal her clothes.
Or that scene in Malcolm in the Middle when Malcolm pantses Reese's swim trunks in front of a girl and a crowd people who all laugh at him.
Maybe just seeing that happen to other people made me never want to experience it.
I also remember playing soccer in elementary school, one of my teammates told me he overheard his mom say she liked how big my butt was, and I was so grossed out at it that I didn't want a grown woman to look at me in that way, I kept my soccer jersey untucked so it would cover my butt when I played.
It's weird though because I do remember fantasizing about a woman seeing me naked. We had a few VHS tapes of movies, Zorro, and Titanic were among them, and I recall waking up early in the morning before anyone else and finding the scenes where Rose asks Jacks to draw her, and the scene where Zorro cuts Elena's dress off. I loved rewatching them and seeing them naked and exposed, and I started imaging myself in their situation, where instead Rose was the one drawing me, or Elena was the one cutting my clothes off, and I'd drop my pajama bottoms and stand in front of the tv naked at the same time when they were stripped imagining it happened to me in front of them.
Despite that I was still terrified of being seen naked by anyone.
I'm not sure if I ever consciously came to the realization that "I need to do something to overcome this" and seek out CFNM+ENM situations to take control of it in my mind, but that might be one of the ways I've tried to cope with it (see
viewtopic.php?p=51277#p51277 ). I still don't really feel in control though, in the moment that I'm experiencing a CFNM+ENM situation I still feel embarrassed and humiliated the entire time, and I regret doing it in the moment. It's only when I look back in hindsight that I enjoy the situation and relive it in my memory, and even then it's mostly just enjoying the female reaction to seeing me.
I wonder if I just love that I'm able to make a female feel some good emotions of laughter at my own expense, it's the best if she feels excited or empowered with the knowledge that she has seen me naked. If she was disgusted or grossed out I wouldn't look back on it fondly.
That's enough about me though, back to the point of this thread I'd love to read about your experiences. I love that the 'perpetrator' was female each time, there's something about a female going out of her way to see a guy naked, I just love it.
