I've wondered this myself, how some women under certain situations will just almost have a complete personality 180. I've mentioned before how my wife basically drops all her boundaries and defences around her family, and I had a similar thing growing up with my own mum.
My mum has always been very modest, bordering on conservative. She’s always worked a high pressure job in a respected and senior position and much of how she conducts herself would reflect this. She always dressed modestly, one piece swimsuit, never really anything that showed anything. But whenever we went on holiday it was like that went out the window. She’d walk around the house naked, sunbathe topless most of the time regardless of how many people were on the beach. Sometimes she’d even go fully nude on the beach or lakeside.
On a normal day at home she wouldn’t been seen in any state of undress, not even underwear or a bikini, but the moment we were on holiday she would become a different person. It was always such a dramatic and sudden transition. I never paid it much notice when I was younger but as we all got older I found myself more and more fascinated by this strange transition into holiday mode where all of her inhibitions would just go out the window.
No one at home would ever walk around naked or get dressed except for behind closed doors. Seeing my mum brazenly expose herself in holiday eventually turned into this strange thrill that I would start looking forward to. It was so surreal for me knowing how uptight and properly she presented herself in day to day life, and then going on holiday and seeing her laying out on the beach completely bare, chest and flaps on display for anyone who stopped to look. And the older I got the more I would notice how many people would. Particularly older married guys, family men on holiday themselves.
I remember one time in particular, we were staying at a cabin on a campsite by a lake. We were all at the beach, down one end on a quiet spot, I was in the water with, my siblings had swam over to a floating pontoon further away and my dad had gone back to the cabin to pick some stuff up. I was looking back towards the sand and noticed that since we had been in the water my mum had completely undressed, and there was a guy around my dad’s age slowly making his way along the beach. Eventually he came within a few metres of my mum and the started chatting. I was transfixed watching it, he was more or less fully dressed, standing over her chatting away while she lay there stark naked, not even bothering to close her legs. She always kept her pubic hair really closely trimmed and away from the lips, so literally everything was on display. They would have chatted for at least five minutes before he headed back the way he came. Later that day as we were all making our way back to our cabin we saw him again and he waved hello to my parents. I realised he and his family were staying in the cabin a couple of spots down and both of my parents had already met and spoken with him before he saw her like that. It was such a rush for me knowing he’d seen her and met her fully dressed before finding her stark naked on the beach like that. I feel like on any normal day she would have been mortified to be seen like that by someone she knew. I wondered how many of her colleagues or how many of my dad’s friends would have paid to be in that position.
