What Kind of Things Would You like to See in a Novel about a Shy Embarrassed Naked Man?

@CurtGiles46
That has such great potential for him to be emotionally jolted by what’s happening to him. To his surprise, he’d notice one of his favorite actresses present and think, “Not her too! Seeing me like this!”
I sort of thought of it along similar lines where you think of imagine like this gorgeous actress that you'd probably love to see naked but you don't get to see her naked but she gets to see you naked. I think meeting a famous actress would be nerve-racking enough but doing it while you are completely naked and she is nicely or spectacularly dressed would be mind-boggling.

I also think that it would probably be a good scene because it would be a great way to poke fun at virtue signaling where you have all these actors and actresses and politicians who pretty much are coming out in support of the naked men, but at the same time there finding it a real grand old time, just basically using the naked men as props in their own campaign bringing attention to the naked person and bringing attention to them, but he is the one who ends up being humiliated! Sometimes even when people are being supportive it can be even more excruciating.

Those are excellent ideas. You are very skilled at incorporating the psychological dimensions of this kink into real world settings.

I'm very much a get into the characters head kind of writer, as to me the psychological inspects of anything are really interesting, how the character thinks and feels. Although in this case it's pretty easy because the character is based on me and I just basically think what I would think and feel in a situation like that, which is something I have given excessive amount of thought to considering it's an entirely fictitious scenario!

I probably will include a scene like that where he encounters naked women just because of the contrast of the fact that although they might be uncomfortable naked at the end of the day it still frustrating for him that they still get to put their clothes on eventually!
 
I haven't gotten around to writing this novel yet but I started writing another novel set in a similar world where the 1% of men are naked, and it's basically about this guy who is dating this woman who is a sociologist who is studying the second female revolution that is coming as a result of all the naked men around, and I think it's a pretty interesting angle to tackle it from, and it will be good preparation for when I write the longer novel.
 
Find myself thinking about this again if anyone has new thoughts to share. I suspect more women would enjoy this than would admit!
 
After reading the OP, I can say that I'd like to see the guy have some really amazing sexual experiences, through which he funds his confidence and masculinity. Then he finds a strong woman who appreciates both and she proudly walks her handsome man around town. Together they have amazing adventures together. I'd make the whole story a sex with strangers extravaganza. Public sex, dogging, invited into homes off the street, sex clubs, etc. All the while their relationship gets stronger and stronger.

But based on your screen name, that might not be what you're looking for.

I'll admit I base my main character entirely off of myself was extremely shy and sexually inexperienced, so that's sort of the angle that I am going at it from. I actually think it would be pretty great though to have a woman who is a turned on by the naked guy being vulnerable, as I always like to find a strong woman who would be attracted to me, but I have to admit that it probably would be extremely embarrassing and awkward because everywhere you go everyone would be knowing that she chose to be with a guy who was completely naked all the time and it probably would cause people to make assumptions about you.

When I think of the main character I think of this other woman that I knew in college she was like really progressive and cool and everything but I was always so shy about the idea of pursuing some kind of relationship, and I think that she would probably find it nice to have "a naked friend" that she could parade around and I always thought she would probably get a real kick out of it.
So while there would probably be some sex in a story like this inevitably I figured it was mostly going to focus around the guy dealing with his awkward embarrassment about being naked in public all the time, basically you figure a really shy guy who is shy to talk to women suddenly getting all of this attention because of the fact that he's forced to go naked everywhere.

And I think that I would also emphasize a lot of the humor of this just because if I was one of the non-naked people I would probably find it hilarious seeing what the naked people were going through so it would sort of be like a little bit of poetic justice for me to be of all people stuck among the naked people. But I would also emphasize the fact that yes the naked men would be highly sexualized and would probably be mostly treated like sex objects which for a character like my main character would be something that they were very very not used to!
 
I was actually going to have one of the main characters be one of his platonic female friends who suddenly starts realizing that she is attracted to the fact that he is naked and how they have to deal with the sexual tension from that. So I do want to give equal attention to the fact that not only with the guy have to get used to being sexually objectified by the women but that the women would be emboldened by the fact that the men were naked and that they had the upper hand for once. I am attracted to very strong women but it would also be rather intimidating to be approached by one while you are completely naked especially if you are caught off guard! And I think that the average woman if she saw a man who is naked would probably feel more confident in a situation like that since he would be the one in the vulnerable positions.

I have thought about this more and I was kind of thinking that I was probably coming out this more from the perspective of somebody who's not particularly attractive or anyone particularly special, sort of an awkward normal guy like myself. I couldn't see people necessarily wanting to have sex with me just because I am naked, but then on the other hand I do think that there would be a certain novelty of being around a naked person, they somehow seem more approachable because you feel more confident when you are wearing your clothing. Like I sort of think about it in reverse if I saw a naked woman even if I didn't find her conventionally attractive they would sort of still be that titillation of the fact that she was naked and you were not, and I can't help but think that it would be kind of similar the other way around. A woman seeing a guy of ordinary attractiveness just by virtue of the fact that he was naked would perhaps be a little bit titillating, there's a certain fun that you can have with the idea of that guy doesn't get to wear clothing.

That is why always found it would be kind of ironic to be in a situation like that, I love the empowerment of women and I love strong women but at the same time if I was walking around town with a woman who was always getting the stayed dressed parading me around naked I can't help but think that that would still be such a weird feeling, an exciting feeling for sure, but at the same time you kind of feel weird about it because everybody sees you and knows hey that woman really likes being the one who gets to keep the clothing on and likes parading the naked guy around!

Sounds good to me. I'm just not into humiliation of any sort. So for the young man to be nervous is fine, but him to be ridiculed or made fun of would be a huge turn off for me. I wouldn't finish reading the story.

I think it's more about the social awkwardness of being naked and more light embarrassment and humiliation, I kind of like situations involving sort of awkward sexual tension where there is sort of an imbalance, particularly one where the women get the upper hand like that. I am once again coming out of my own standpoint where I would probably find this comical if it were happening to somebody else even if I would be supportive, so the funny situation of being that naked guy when you are sorted the shy awkward one is what makes the situation I think very humorous and outrageous and partially what makes it exciting. I figured that my character would eventually have to grow to get used to it but I often wonder if I would ever really overcome the embarrassment of being naked in public all the time, I mean in time you would probably get used to it but if you're just an innately shy person having to be a public nudist, well…

I also thought it would be sort of like a little bit of an ironic situation because the guy likes the fact that women are feeling empowered by the guys being naked but also very frustrated by the fact that he is one of the naked guys, so I kind of wanted to be a character you can sort of relate to, sort of a nice guy who just sort of now finds himself in this highly awkward embarrassing and for him sexually charged experience and just how he has to try and deal with it. Once again it's a pretty exciting fantasy but the reality of it would probably be unbelievably intense. It sort of almost like my ultimate fantasy worst nightmare kind of situation, it would certainly be very much an adrenaline rush, that is for sure!

The thing I'm most interested in hearing about in regards to this scenario is how other people would respond if they saw others naked versus how would they respond if they found themselves in this situation. For example if you are forced to be a public notice do you think that you would find it easy to deal with were very difficult to deal with? I think that the average person who wasn't a nudist or an exhibitionist would probably find it a very big adjustment to say the least.

And while the obvious focus of the novel would be an erotic novel seeing as it's about someone forced to go naked I also figure would be a comedy, again not so much a story about humiliation but just sort of the awkward embarrassment of suddenly being forced to be "the naked guy" for the rest of your life and how blatantly humorous that would be I think to the average person. Once again you have to figure that people would get used to it in time but that the naked people would probably be always a major focus of attention and a source of amusement to the majority of people.
 
I actually did start writing and almost finished a novella or novel with a similar premise about a guy allergic to clothing who finally meets a woman who is on his intellectual level and fulfills all of his needs but he has to deal with the embarrassment of being naked around her all the time.
 
I have found this scenario has once again affected my mind, so I thought I would revive this thread to see if anyone has any new thoughts to add.
 
Yes, we thought you might... since you've posted over half of the 90+ 'reponses'.

Words like 'horse', 'dead' and 'flogging' come to mind....
 
'His own' just about sums it up.
Many folks on here start threads about their "own" fetishes and fantasies. If you see one that you don't find appealing, maybe you could just not comment on it. You seem to have a couple fantasies yourself that others might even find offensive. But this is the last place anyone should be kink shaming.
 
@SmokingFap
Thank you. I will never understand why people go out of their way to make a comment in a thread saying that I have no interest in this thread. That's one of the main reasons I don't participate here on a regular basis, I have noticed people here are sort of rude, hostile and judgemental compared to most of the fetish boards I have been on.

Fuck 'em. Share what you want and just focus on the folks who are interested.

It's funny you should mention being a Sigma male as I've been watching a lot of videos about the Myers-Briggs personality type and I realized I was in INFJ and how much I don't really conform to social norms at all and I actually thought that that would probably be an ironic thing for me to be among one of these 1% of men forced to become public nudists.

Basically everyone who knows me knows that I am very weird and that I don't really care much what society thinks, and I always had a humorous attitude towards things like sex and nudity and had a perverted sense of humor, and the irony of that is I feel that in my case if I found myself as one of these 1% naked men is that just because of my attitude of not caring so much what society thinks and finding things like this to be amusing that they would probably be less sympathetic to my condition if that makes sense.

You figure you have this weird guy who has this twisted sense of humor about these kind of things and this is like a situation that would be tailor-made for me to find screamingly hilarious, and yet when you are in that situation it's not quite so funny or so comfortable! Yes I go against societal norms but that doesn't automatically mean that it would be easy for me to suddenly become a public nudist! I mean I think that people realize that if I'm socially awkward and sexually inexperienced that suddenly having to be a person defined by the fact that I have to go buck naked everywhere I go and with every person I meet that that's certainly not going to make me less socially awkward to suddenly be a highly sexually objectified individual!

So yeah I might reject most societal norms but that doesn't mean I'm going to run out and become a nudist. It's funny because I come from a really uptight prudish and conservative family so if I was in a situation like this they would probably find it rather disgusting that I would have to go naked in public and at the same time because I'm sort of this oddball person in general they would probably be thinking it probably doesn't bother him that much and I would be like, would it bother you having to go naked everywhere?!

So yeah I think a lot of people would say it would figure that I would be in a situation like that because seeing as I am weird in every other way this is just one more weird thing about me, but I think it's totally different because it's one thing to be weird and like to talk about weird things in joke about weird things, and it's another thing for everybody to see you naked in public and automatically know that you are different for that particular reason. Like being a naked person is I think a thing that would become completely the defining thing of your identity and that you would never really be able to shake that off fully.

But it seriously would make pretty much all social interactions extremely awkward and weird. My family I think would just again write it off as, well he's the weird one in the family, kind of figures he would be ending up with this weird affliction where he can't wear clothing and I wonder if they would still be constantly encouraging me that I need to get out and socialize more if I had to do so naked!

My friends who are more in my age range would probably find the situation humorous. I would feel pretty weird around my male friends admittedly and that would be awkward, and I think that my female friends would probably find it more amusing than anything. I haven't really socialized much outside of my home in a long time but it would be a weird thing to see some of my friends from high school where I had all of this weird and dark cynical humor and it would be hard to think that they would see me and not be able to have fun with the fact that we have a friend who is stuck being a buck naked public nudist!

So yeah in my case I think it's basically a case of of all the people you could picture being in a situation like this it almost seems kind of fitting and yet at the same time also kind of not. You have a weird socially awkward guy who takes humor in the most inappropriate things and now suddenly he has to spend the rest of his life completely buck naked everywhere he goes, I mean I can think about how some of my friends from high school would react to that!

Like I remember my friend Carolyn who was like into Wicca and vampirism and all of this stuff and would wear dark every day and how we always like to joke about the darker aspects of life and I remember when she had her sweet 16 party like 20 years ago and she said something about all of her friends and she was talking about all of these crazy stories I would write and everything like that as like the defining thing of me, like the weirdest person you can imagine, and I can almost picture her hearing the news in a situation like this. Like I can imagine somebody that we knew in high school telling her the news. Guess who of all people that we know who is afflicted with that naked virus, weirdest guy you could ever remember, and also the shyest and most awkward one. Again she wouldn't be especially cruel but at the same time it's like if you have a dark sense of humor the fact of having one of your friends stuck permanently as a naked guy is just irresistible, I would like literally never hear the end of it.

But that was going to be another sort of plot point about the story because the guy has a similar attitude towards me of finding humor in the absurd and craziness of life and everything like that, so one of the real mind fuck frustrations I suppose would be that this would probably be the most hilarious thing that they could imagine happening if it happen to anyone other than them but they are going to find themselves now that they are the constant source of amusement for everybody else. Again I have a good sense of humor about this but the jokes about it would be pretty much endless.

As to the physical aspects I don't consider myself particularly attractive, but I feel like again in a situation like this there would still be the novelty to nudity. I may be overweight and out of shape but I think that a lot of people wouldn't care, they would still find that amusing, hey look at the naked guy.

I think of this because I think of it in sort of the opposite position. If I saw a woman in public that I didn't consider to be conventionally attractive but she was naked I probably would still look and probably still get a little bit of a kick out of it. I probably wouldn't go up to her and I certainly wouldn't be mean to her and anything like that but I would still be sort of snickering and amusement. And I've talked to other people about this and I think that the average woman would be no different. She may not be attracted to the naked guy but it would still be somewhat amusing that he was naked.

And that of course goes back to the point I was just making above about how this would be incredibly amusing for the people who get to keep their clothing on but incredibly embarrassing for those who can't. So the irony would be that I would probably be in lots of situations where I would be seeing attractive women and thinking when it be great if they were naked and they would be looking back and just sort of smirking.

So yeah I would try to find ways to cope with it but at the same time I don't think I would ever get over the feeling of constantly being in the source of public attention and a source of amusement for everyone around me. It's hard for you to feel serious or to be taken serious when everybody is focusing on the fact that you are naked wherever you go.

It would be a weird thing to go from being the shy awkward and generally seen as asexual nerdy guy and intellectual to every time leaving the house all of the women whistling and hollering and pointing and laughing and saying hey everybody look at the naked guy! And the thing is you can't really get mad either because it is hilarious, and I do love seeing women enjoying themselves, and I think in a situation like this women would be enjoying themselves like never before.
@SmokingFap
Do you have any thoughts on this scenario?
I guess I would just think it was interesting to flesh out the initial reaction of society and especially the 1% of men affected when the virus first start spreading. Obviously, a lot of that 1% would be thrilled to have an excuse to just walk around with their dick flapping in the breeze all the time. Just take a poll of male Litsters. 😆

But since you're writing a novella or longer, you could spend a lot of time with your "protagonist" desperately fighting to just be a hermit due to his social anxieties, deciding to work from home and having everything delivered. But then circumstances force him to go out in public more often. He gradually becomes more comfortable in his own skin, so to speak. And the approving stares of both women and men help him gain increasing confidence over time.

I'm hoping to have a drawn out over a long stretch of time where you go from the initial reaction where my character find it amusing because let's face it how could you not, to the horror when he finds out he is among one of the afflicted. I mean again I am Basing it off my attitude because if this happened and I was unafflicted I would probably find it rather hilarious and it would be nice seeing all the women having a laugh at the guys expense but if I was like one of those people it would just be like excruciating since I am cripplingly shy. That's what I think is more interesting, seeing an exhibitionist in a situation like this wouldn't be as interesting as seeing someone sort of forced into a situation they would never otherwise willingly put themselves in.

I can say this is definitely going to be longer than a novella this is probably going to be like a Stephen King length novel in all honesty, I've been thinking about this one and adding material for it for like 10 years so no real lack of material, I just like to find out what other people would probably find interesting to see.

And yeah that pretty much is me I am sort of a socially isolated hermit myself, self published writer at home who rarely gets out much but I thought it would have been interesting because if this had happened to me when I was in college and having to go out every day on a largely female campus that would be a lot more difficult to deal with I would think a lot more interesting. Luckily college universities tend to be fairly liberal and accepting but it would still be just insanely embarrassing. I mean at some point I would maybe get over it but never fully, it does make me wonder though if I would develop more confidence even though I don't consider myself physically attractive probably a lot of people would find something attractive about the novelty of not being able to wear clothes. Once again I think that will be a big funny part of the story to see what kind of women specifically go out for the guys who literally can wear clothing, because a lot of people probably make assumptions about you if you are that woman who likes to date involuntarily naked men LOL.

I think seeing the transformation from shy awkward nerd into "oh my God look at the naked guy" everywhere he goes is certainly going to be a very humorous thing. So although it is sort of erotica novel I do think of it also as like a really just great comedy because of all the comedic potential for that scenario. In fact I was thinking of writing another novel specifically set in that same universe about a man who is dating a female comedian when the virus starts going down making it a golden age of female comedians who are able to poke fun at all of the naked men around.
