1. Actually embarrassed easily with certain things (like confrontations in public, criticism in front of others, doing something clumsy/stupid, etc.) but when it comes to anything sexual or dealing with nudity no problems with being embarrassed at all. Modesty and embarrassment are two different things. I learned to not be modest from the earliest of times in my life with having to change outfits for routines and competitions (dance, twirling lol, cheerleading, etc.) in dressing areas set up with curtains just under the stands or just out of sight’s eye for most observers (everyone changed in these places not just me) as well as from doing runway modeling and stripping as soon as you hit the curtain to get in the next set and be right back on the runway (with security guards all around making sure no one bothers you- what a job! The guys loved it and my mom always reminded them that I was X years old… what a great mother…. hehe).

2. I love my body. I am completely comfortable with my body. I like showing that state of being with others and to give some women who may have had bad situations in their past like me with name calling and such to realize that they too can have confidence in themselves and their bodies. You have to love yourself before you can truly open your heart to love someone else (that has nothing to do with posing nude in any way). There are things that are not my favorites about my body, but I love that I have been given what I have.

3. Laughing my ass off would be a start. Followed by “wow I didn’t know they had invisible clothes vacuums in here?” or “I knew I would get caught taking those clothes” (not that I would but that would teach a moral too). Then more laughter and “Can I borrow a shopping bag or something to head outside so that I don’t get arrested?” That is if anyone were left standing by that point in time around me.

4. I would do it myself no matter where I was.

5. Yes. I have not been to one, but I would like to go. It is on my to do list. I have not been yet as I am always with friends or family who just do not understand that side of things when I am even remotely close to a place like that. Another thing is that everyone has their perception of what they like in a person’s body. What if I go and there is no one that I like? That would be a disappointment.

6. I would talk to the person if I realized that it was being taken. After all, why take a picture of just me when I would invite them to take a picture with me. I do not mind having my picture made (even naked) and would love to give them the picture that they really want.

7. I would ask them how their vacation was at “x” place and send a picture of me to them so that they knew that it was truly me speaking to them. I would probably give them a Spotting Verity award for actually seeing me in public and posting a pic. I would also ask them why they did not want to take a picture "with me" instead of "of me"?

8. You know I would not mind being naked in front of either group. But, I would be more excited to be in front of a larger crowd.

9. Not modest… so not applicable.

10. Definitely something to laugh about later. Hopefully the friend taking the bathing suit off was a guy and that leads to something else. But never know those girl friends can be quite naughty at times too.

11. Yes. I have been caught when I did not want to be caught. In the past I would have covered my boobs with one arm and my muff with the other. That was when I got caught. Now, I do not care as I am naked in my home most of the time and completely comfortable with my body. I have found in that situation that it is better to come back at them with something funny, like “How are you today?” When they turn tail and run in embarrassment for catching you naked, then you throw in the “Have an awesome day!” That will get them every time. Just turn the situation around on them.
