My double standard was really quite simple.

When under 11 or so when ever we went to beach my mom kept me naked even though I had sister 5 and 7 years older than me dressed. When close to 11 sisters were not around much any more though.

This started early when my friend my age went naked and I just kept doing it and enjoyed it. Sometimes I still dream about it and being naked on beach mile from car with no clothes.

For me, I was more like some described.

I was raised in small community. I was friends with a boy and girl nearby and boy was naked often. I was closer firends with girl and we went everywhere together. I fianlly asked why boy was naked and girl got her mom. They explained they were raising boy naked as healthy and I should too. I thought my mom would get mad but she really was indifferent and said do same at home too.

Back in the day, you'd hear talk about a 'double standard,' I suppose. Folks treated girls a little differently, and left them on a pedestal you could say.

Didn't matter much to me, though. I grew up playing with the same boys and girls in the neighborhood, and that was just how it was. The girls were usually in homemade sundresses and sandals, and us boys ran around in shorts and t-shirts.

In a backyard pool, nobody wore much of anything. It was out at the lake where you'd notice it more. We'd spend the day drifting on a big pontoon boat, and all the little kids would skinny-dip. But once you got to be about eight or so, the girls would get modest, and it was just the boys jumping in and spending day naked. It was no big deal, though; we were all just having fun.

I think it was seen as healthy and easier to to take care of when warm. It was only at home and lakes though.

I did but never saw much objection but certainly a different time.

So nudity for boys was seen as healthy?? That's interesting! As much as nudity of boys upto a certain age was common in my family and culture, I don't think any of my friends or sisters thought that it had any added benefit. I guess the closest thing to any benefit was for us boy moms, as a lot of the times things would be much easier for us than for girl moms. For example if boys need to get changed, you don't need to find any private place for them as you can make them naked anywhere. If they need to pee, no need to find any public bathrooms, they can pee anywhere. And let's just say we boy moms always took full advantage of this lol

in what way did you moms take "full advantage of this lol"? like, what "advantage" is there by having your son naked? did you always oversee your son going pee when he was naked? i'm not being critical, just curious.

I was talking about taking advantage of the situations. Like for example, if we are outside and my kid needs to pee. Now if I had a girl, it's a hassle, I would now have to look for a public bathroom. But since I have a boy, it is a lot easier, I can just tell him to pee by the side of the road. No hassle! This is the advantage I was talking about. I explained this in the reply too, so not sure what are you curious about.

I think people today find the topic scandalous but every summer as a boy I saw a dozen boys play naked off and on and more at beaaches. Girls saw penises all summer and grew up well adjusted.

Maybe I was slightly embarassed when closer to 12 and told to what younger boys swim n ocean and still played naked but, I also got over it quickly as place was rural and no one said much of anything about it.

It was a gift to your mom to stop washing clothes.

My double standard was in a gym too!!! lol

When a teen years ago we did training year round in different activities. When weightlifting a bit older, I would take nude swim afterwards or sit in sauna for 20 minutes often.

There was boys with moms in mens room most days. A few girls showered with dads when under 9. One of the female coaches entered boys room all the time

It used to be a boy thing to hang out naked sometimes. We would sit on edge of pool and talk sometimes too for an hour after done.
