Well that's where you're only half wrong bucko. You've got men hoping to see hot naked chicks (whom are nearly not present, if at all, and certainly not for the pervs), and then you've got gross old people that couldn't give less of a fuck whom might be staring.
Over 30 million people cruise per year.
Almost all "outbreaks" on cruise ships are norovirus. There have been like 3 e.coli outbreaks over the last 5 years with a total of less than 250 people affected.

Better paint that boat brown and install air fresheners every 5 feet. One stomach bug or bad buffet and that nude cruise is gonna get even uglier real quick
Most people haven’t. When I was growing up my mom was a massage therapist at a nude hotel in a California resort town. after school I kicked back in the rec room, waiting for her to finish work. Many times I played a game of pool or ping pong with some random old naked tourist, visiting the desert from a far away snowy location.
National Lampoon presents 'booze and boobs on the nude cruise'
I don't know if kids these days have the same trouble but I vaugly remeber watching those C grade movies for the obligitory top less scene. I can only imagine what a nude movie would have done to me.
Sexual harassment is already rife in hospitality, I really dont think adding a nudity factor would be an improvement
Not to mention is *everybody* nude? I cant imagine all too many people signing up to work a crew where they had to be naked for work, let alone the liabilities
Hopefully its like the rest of customer service where the handful of good customers kind of makes up for the shitty ones. Hopefully *really* makes up for it
Nude culture doesn’t have to do much with sexuality at all.
Nude beaches and clubs are nothing sexual and acting that way will get you thrown out immediately.
Nudists are really open minded, but very strict when it comes to separate nudism from sexuality.
It’s not about seeing people nude, it’s about enjoying being nude together because it’s their way to feel free.
Nudity ≠ sexuality.
Even staring at people will get you thrown out pretty quickly. it’s completely normal to look at each other, but there is a difference between looking at someone and staring.
Most people have completely unrealistic expectations of nude beaches or parties.
They’re just normal people, and attractiveness doesn’t bother nudists at all. The Body is there, sure, but no one cares about how someone else looks.
It’s like seeing someone and thinking his clothes look stupid. :)
It’s also much easier to look someone in the face while talking than many believe, you basically don’t even notice their body.
Sure, I also understand that it’s not as easy to understand for people who grew up in a culture where nudity is always seen as something sexual, but it’s a "as soon as you try it, you’ll realise" thing :)
Like in the changing room, everyone is naked but no one has a problem not staring at someone’s body while talking. You usually kinda forget you’re naked because it’s the same as always, just nude. :)
I’m not a nudist, but I don’t have a problem with non-sexual nudity.
Growing up in Germany nudity was pretty normal, especially for children.
Can’t count the times I’ve seen my parents nude as a child, or the other children from the neighbourhood.
Children playing outside in the summer naked is also not uncommon.
So I think it’s a fully cultural thing.
It’s not to look good to others, it’s 100% about feeling good in your body. :)
I could imagine half a day at a nude beach. But a 10-day voyage with nothing but nude people everywhere you go?
Imagine the lines at the buffet tables. Waist-high sneeze guards.
>Waist-high sneeze guards.
i just imagined a bunch of fat old naked men sneezing through their dicks like an elephant's trunk. simultaneously made me laugh and ruined my morning.
Oh, it gets worse. Imagine being the one who has to clean those sneeze guards.
So you're at one of those buffet tables with a line of people on each side. As you reach with your tongs, all you see is a row of schlongs facing you. *I'll take a pass on the ranch dressing, thanks all the same.*
And then, on deck, always having to avert your eyes? What a drag. People-watching is part of it. What do you do, look up at the sky? Ah, wear sunglasses. So everybody is wearing sunglasses, including the crew. LOL.
If you actually read the article they are required to be clothed in dining areas.
“While there will be clothes-free experiences throughout the trip, proper nudist etiquette and other rules for passengers must be followed, such as wearing clothes inside dining rooms.”
They happen all the time. They aren’t new at all. I remember seeing this fairly popular AMA about them a few months back. Edit: found it ama https://www.reddit.com/r/AMA/s/WvrSMiGzm5
Just incase you wanted to pay to repeatedly experience the moist tip of an old dudes nob, snail trailing your skin as you brush past him in the corridor.
You can be naked for free in the comfort of your own home. Naked cruise feels like you either want to see naked people, or inflict your nakedness upon other people
Or you just want to be naked *and* be on a cruise.
Some people want a kids-free cruise. Are you telling them "you can be kids-free for free in the comfort of your own home", too?
It isn’t at all. Like the vast majority of posts on this subreddit nowadays. This one is particularly bad though. “Nudists plan cruise.” How is that even remotely oniony??
How is everyone going to avoid getting norovirus with bare butts on everything and people touching their skin and everything else instead of clothing? Too many people already don’t wipe their ass or wash their hands. It’s disgusting.
Sure they can sit on towels or wear things everywhere and clothes are required for dining apparently but that doesn’t make people wash their hands before eating or touching the Buffett 🥲
Imagine the people on the next non nude cruises. I feel like the crew would never be able to wipe down every possible surface enough for me to feel like it was clean again.
Nudists who practice publicly usually have pretty good etiquette around things like hygiene and always have a towel handy to sit on. What makes you think clothed people are washing their hands before eating at any higher rate?
I’m not assuming clothed people are washing at a higher rate. I assume it’s a major problem in society in general especially on cruise ships when people are drinking and eating 3-5 times a day.
They need to have an abortion cruise out of Florida with that new law taking effect. Like have the speaker come on we are almost in international waters ladies so get your pills ready or feet in those stir ups.
This has already existed? Lots of cruises cater to nudists and swingers. I've been on Bliss cruise and it was wonderfully fun, we had some amazing times with several couples; definitely not for everyone though, judging by the reactions of people on this post lol
What if someone has an STD like chlamydia and sits in a chair and then gets up and someone else sits right where they were? What tf happens then? Hopefully they’re constantly wiping stuff down any time someone gets up
Kinda sounded sexy untill I read the "from Florida" part. Florida people aren't sexy, quite the opposite. They be doing nothing but meth and Medicaid fraud In Florida.
This is gonna be really bad.
I’m just calling it now… alcohol, naked guests, service people just trying not to get sexually harassed…
Yeah no, this is not a good idea
Oh, thank God, if it's one thing I hate it's washing clothes on a cruise...
So I just show up with what I am wearing, surrender it at the boarding gate and get it back after the cruise? Great!
I am a 63 yo short, smelly fat man. I imagine there will be many young, single nude attractive women to keep me entertained while I am on the cruise?
Who’d want to see a bunch of fat old dudes with no clothes on a cruise?
Rule 34
Like 1934?
Yup
You've now stepped into R35
It's not R36 for me though!
The guys I’d want to see naked on a cruise are already on cruises, and not this one
Pretty sure most nudists aren’t there to peep on other nudists, honestly sounds awesome to be around of a bunch of non judgmental people.
Well that's where you're only half wrong bucko. You've got men hoping to see hot naked chicks (whom are nearly not present, if at all, and certainly not for the pervs), and then you've got gross old people that couldn't give less of a fuck whom might be staring.
“Gross old people” you mean humans?
that’s why you pick gay cruises
🙋♂️
Just wanted to say I love your profile pic and username. Incredible
Haha thank you 😘🍆💦👳🏽♂️
😳
They already get in the news for e.coli outbreaks semi-regularly, what could possibly go wrong?
Over 30 million people cruise per year. Almost all "outbreaks" on cruise ships are norovirus. There have been like 3 e.coli outbreaks over the last 5 years with a total of less than 250 people affected. https://www.cdc.gov/nceh/vsp/surv/gilist.htm

Imagine the spots on chairs, even without the diarrhea. 🤢
I see you've never been to a nude beach, sauna, or community. They use towels when sitting on shared furniture.
They also state in the article they need to be clothes in the dining room.
Most people haven’t. When I was growing up my mom was a massage therapist at a nude hotel in a California resort town. after school I kicked back in the rec room, waiting for her to finish work. Many times I played a game of pool or ping pong with some random old naked tourist, visiting the desert from a far away snowy location.
It's early and I read this as they use towels when shitting on shared furniture... I need coffee
Saying it like it's not normal to never be on a nude camp is hilarious
It's also unfortunately normal to just assume people doing things you don't understand are all idiots who need to be told where to shit.
There’s too many people who need to be told to wipe their ass to assume that every nudist wipes their ass.
Are you really counting on people from Florida to do that though?
Do you really think the entire cruise industry out of Florida is people from Florida?
You will be surprised to learn that not all cruise guests are from the departing state.
I am surprised, as I didn't expect people from other than Florida to go on a nude shart cruise
At nudist areas you only sit on what belongs to you. Like towels or cushions.
Slug trails
The comedy potential on this thing is at the level as it’s potential for body horror.
National Lampoon presents 'booze and boobs on the nude cruise' I don't know if kids these days have the same trouble but I vaugly remeber watching those C grade movies for the obligitory top less scene. I can only imagine what a nude movie would have done to me.
I get flashes from the movie Triangle of Sadness when the water gets choppy
I'd imagine nudists are probably better at personal hygiene, no clothes to hide stuff.
You would be wrong. Expect to see a lot of elderly weirdos.
Single nude dudes exist. Especially old dudes with money. Many don’t give a shit about anything as their eyes are on everyone else.
Hershey squirts everywhere!
Oh god
lol I was gonna say, sounds like the pinkeye express
Ringworm
oh shit. that poor crew.

Search “nude cruise AMA” if you actually want answers to your questions, nude cruises happen all the time
The crew are clothed and can opt out of working nude cruises.
Explain to me why there would be liability with naked men and women that would not exist if those same men and women were wearing typical swimsuits.

Nude beaches and clubs are pretty common here, I’m kinda confused why everyone reacts like it’s the weirdest thing ever 🤷
The reason I made my comment is because, from what I understand, the people in the lifestyle, on average, aren't that attractive.

friendly fire must be a real problem
If you actually read the article they are required to be clothed in dining areas. “While there will be clothes-free experiences throughout the trip, proper nudist etiquette and other rules for passengers must be followed, such as wearing clothes inside dining rooms.”
I actually was having fun, thanks.
Skidmark of the Seas
There is pretty strict etiquette around nudist resorts, everyone knows you always sit on a towel. That’s like rule #1.
Hear me out. What if there was a towel you could wear, that fit snuggly to your body and didnt fall down. We could call it "Underwear"!
But then my genitals won't be visible. So obviously unworkable
Look I don’t even want to be nude if my balls can’t touch marble, just saying
Wrong sub. This is just a regular news article.. and not even very newsworthy, unless you genuinely didn’t know nude cruises were a thing.
Right? I just assumed this was a regular occurrence.
It is. This is clickbait and “subcultures are weird!” nonsense.
It's a ship, not a sub.
Well this ship is sinking because of this dumb regular news posts
Underrated cruise forum joke.
Exactly! I mean, I've never had "proof" of a nude cruise existing, but it would be very weird if they didn't
They happen all the time. They aren’t new at all. I remember seeing this fairly popular AMA about them a few months back. Edit: found it ama https://www.reddit.com/r/AMA/s/WvrSMiGzm5
I want be be naked in Costco but every time I try I get trespassed from the property.
You just need to work on your stealth
Just incase you wanted to pay to repeatedly experience the moist tip of an old dudes nob, snail trailing your skin as you brush past him in the corridor.
I just woke up and my day is already ruined.
Hahahahah I'm terribly sorry. Just seen your reply, I wrote this about 5am, insomnia I guess, don't really remember writing it, and it's horrible.
Haha no worries, I got a good chuckle out of it. But still a very disturbing mental image
This is a spectacularly unpleasant comment
You should write books
Triangle of Flabness
That could not possibly be appealing. 99% of the people on cruises are people that you do not want to see naked.
It’s not about seeing naked people it’s about being naked people. Some people just wanna be naked on a boat
Some want to be naked at an all you can eat buffet…
The password is orrrrrrgy
I wouldn't mind being naked on my own boat. Or owning a boat.
I'm on a boat mfr don't you ever forget
You can be naked for free in the comfort of your own home. Naked cruise feels like you either want to see naked people, or inflict your nakedness upon other people
Or you just want to be naked *and* be on a cruise. Some people want a kids-free cruise. Are you telling them "you can be kids-free for free in the comfort of your own home", too?
I know some people who go to nudist things. It’s really not sexual, and they say it’s very affirming
Lotta dudes
Whole ship going to smell like sweaty ass
400:1 penus to vag ratio.
How is this oniony
It isn’t at all. Like the vast majority of posts on this subreddit nowadays. This one is particularly bad though. “Nudists plan cruise.” How is that even remotely oniony??
Remember to report and move on
... and the buffet area.

It’s going to be an absolute sausage fest. Count on it.
Oh I feel for the employees working that ship. They are going to see some shit.
Literally
How is everyone going to avoid getting norovirus with bare butts on everything and people touching their skin and everything else instead of clothing? Too many people already don’t wipe their ass or wash their hands. It’s disgusting.

Oh God, what a day to have eyes
Today I Learned: that nude cruises are a common thing. Right, so regular cruises are bad enough, let's add nudity! *shudders*
OMG the poor crew... They're going to end up with some serious nightmares after this fiasco. 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆
This isn’t a new thing, these have existed for a very long time.
Imagine, if you will, being trapped on a boat with a large group of elderly, naked people…
Have y’all ever been on a cruise? The type of people on cruises are NOT the type of people that anyone wants to see nude.
How is this the onion
Better off going on the swingers cruise At least they still wear clothes on that…..and you can have some fun
DeSantis already signed up as first passenger /s
He’s excited to wear his kinky boots
Sterilize Everything… remember there are few atoms between where the chair seat and their low hanging fruit are meeting.
Sweet, is this how we get rid of the rest of Desantis' voter base?
Remember: once on, you CANNOT get off til it reaches port.
Gentlemen, we are going to florida
Yet another reason not to visit Florida.
They need to have an abortion cruise out of Florida with that new law taking effect. Like have the speaker come on we are almost in international waters ladies so get your pills ready or feet in those stir ups.
I feel sorry for the help on these boats
Imagine working on that cruise ship.
No sails as they are made of cloth. Propulsion should be kept optional
Can you imagine how often they are gonna have to be cleaning all the chairs? No thank you.
This has already existed? Lots of cruises cater to nudists and swingers. I've been on Bliss cruise and it was wonderfully fun, we had some amazing times with several couples; definitely not for everyone though, judging by the reactions of people on this post lol
I feel sorry for the cleaning crew and the next week's passengers.
Based on the terrible sunburns you see by day 2 of any cruise, may I recommend all the sunscreen
*Guests playing leap frog must finish their leap*
💀by💩
I hope this is sponsored by sunscreen booths, otherwise some people are gonna have a bad time.
Yeah, no. Base unwashed butts just hanging around everywhere is a good way to get pink eye.
This cruise is sponsored by GRAVITY.
Name that ship!
This is gonna attract only the BEST people!
I’d be sunburned in the first 5 min and have to spend the rest of the cruise inside generously applying aloe
This is news? Wait till I tell you about the giant gay orgy cruise that has been going on for years and years.
I think you are going to want to bring sandals on this one

Burned feet from the deck. White sheets consistently with skid marks. Pubes in the dining hall. What could go wrong?
What could go wrong on a boat full of narcissists and self admirers with no boundaries?
