There are many stories and/or confessions online pertaining to nudity. Some about exhibitionists, voyeurs or just people who like to be naked. There was a recent rumor where I work about a man I don’t know who was exposing himself to young girls. It brought back memories when I was a small girl that I rarely think about anymore, being so young when it occurred. Its over 30 years ago and I am not sure how old I was at the time. A guess would be probably as young as 7 or 8 or as old as 10. I’m not even sure of how long it went on but think more than a year and possibly much longer. I lived in Dover, Delaware then and know for sure I was at least 11 when we moved to Annapolis, Maryland. It revolved around my friend Clara, her younger brother Terry, her step father and one other girl who’s name I can’t remember. Clara’s mother left us alone often with her step father and that is when all the nudity took place. I visited there house several times a week and not only saw them naked but I was naked in front of them. We took baths playing with Barbie dolls along with Clara, her brother and the other girl who was there less often than I. Clara’s step father who she called daddy or dad would also end up nude.

As far as I can remember there was never a time I was embarrassed or shocked by seeing her brother or father naked. I suppose the fact I saw my own brother, who is 3 years younger, naked many times. I also know there were times back then that I saw my mother or father naked and it just wasn’t a big deal. At that age nudity wasn’t anything I thought wrong. Clara only lived 2 houses down from my house and my mother always knew where I was. Clara’s dad prepared a bath for us not so much to wash but to play in the large tub they had. Clara’s dad would also bathe with us in the bathroom and would have Clara wash his genitals with a long handled soft brush. What I do vividly recall is that when she did this his pee pee would get huge. Back then to me a penis was a pee pee and words like dick and balls and ass were never used. Everything was like pee pee or poo poo. Even a vagina was her pee pee. Now I do have to say this man never touched or molested me and as far as I know he never did anything to Clara or the other girl. What I know now that he did was masturbate in front of us. At the time we didn’t understand what that was and had no idea what semen was. The only other thing I remember that he had us do was exercises while we were naked. Most of this had us in precarious positions where we were fully exposed to him. I doubt at the time I ever gave it much thought and actually had fun doing it naked.

Once we got dressed we were rewarded with ice cream and other treats and he even played games with us. We all liked him very much and pretty much did whatever he said or suggested. He never got mad at any of us and was always kind. Even when Clara’s mom was home he was attentive to us and catered to our needs. I’m not sure about this but think her mother knew he filled the tub for us to play in especially in the warmer months. We had dolls and small boats they fit in. The bathtub was so big that Clara, her brother, the other girl and me had plenty of room to play. I thought little about seeing her brothers penis and didn’t think much when her dad was naked except that he had hair. I do remember paying attention to his genitals when Clara washed his privates with the brush. It did amaze me seeing he penis grow not even knowing at the time what an erection was. We all watched him masturbate and never questioned his ejaculation. I recall watching how his penis would then again shrink and at times we would smile and laugh about it. Not once do I ever remember saying anything to my parents about it. Ignorance about sex is all I can attest to. I doubt I ever thought anything was wrong about it until I was in my teen years. By then I knew what this man was doing but never said anything simply because I didn’t want anyone to know how dumb I was about it. I did tell my husband about that man many years ago and he remarked that I was just immature and stupid. This probably goes on more than anyone can imagine and there are very deceitful people. It is mostly men guilty of this kind of thing but I have read about some very strange women also. I guess everyone has some type of sexual fantasy or obsession but I hate anything an adult would do with a child. Kids shouldn’t be subjected to someone’s sexual perversions. Even though that man never molested me he took advantage of my innocence. He aroused himself by viewing me and those other kids naked. To make matters worse had us watch him masturbate just to satisfy his sick mind.
