If you have male genitalia, at least wear a kynodesmē (NSFW educational link) to stop your junk from flapping.
I did not expect the, ahem, instructional images under the “purpose” heading 😅
oh, sorry, I just added a warning.
Haha, no worries! Just caught me off guard
Looks like a trussed up chicken
I can’t help but think some guy’s realizing his weird fetish by showing his junk to unsuspecting people on the internet in the name of history education. The visualization is definetely helpful, as otherwise I wouldn’t be able to imagine this, but maybe a drawn image would have been more fitting.
I… Don’t know why I went back, but I had to see it for myself. That was… Interesting
It’s wikipedia and it’s the human body - I don’t think that drawings can do it justice as a repository of information.
I don’t see anything sexual with it. There’s also videos of proper fucking and creampies on some pages - I find those weirdly unsexual as well.
I need links for… research
Modesty and decency demanded that men who showed themselves naked in a public setting, such as athletes or actors, must conceal their glans.
Naturally.
New word learned
Kynodesmē Senpai!!!
(Sorry…)
Wh… Why… Why not just wear pants? I know it was ancient times, but didn’t they have something? Briefs, a diaper? Anything seems better than stripping your dick to your neck.
Now we have elastics and stretchy fabric. I guess it was more difficult to have a firm and comfortable hold with loose fabric.
I mean they have a string right there. Just loop that around over your hips to keep them up
Nah bro it’s better to lynch your dick for several hours while doing intense athletics. Trust me bro.
Rofl but I think you’re onto something. It had to be either a kink or aesthetic thing.
The smell 🫠
Letting out your kynodesmē after a long sunny day of wrestling with the boys. 😩
They were naked when practicing athletics. I don’t know if it was a cultural thing or an actual lack of good options for sportswear, but I’ll bet you can find out with 5 minutes of searching online. My bet is it was just a cultural thing.
I mean can you imagine sweating into the same clothes you then need to wear to the Spartan assembly?
I guess, when you have to make all your own clothes from scratch by hand, the advantage becomes apparent. People without armor also fought naked in battles. Understandable if you need to handwash and mend your clothes.
Ancient Greeks placed great value on a fit body, I imagine that’s at least part of the reason why.
I love the thought of all the original Olympians wearing diapers.
Because not everyone is prude and scared of the human body.
Dude, I’m no prude. I have been known to be naked in public spaces. Just the idea, of tying a string to Your Johnson seems impractical. Either let it hang or cover it up with something comfortable.
foreskin is clothes i guess
There are peoples in New Guinea where the men walk around with their penis attached to a cord tied around their waist. I had assumed the cord was tied to the head of their penis, but in fact the foreskin was tied around the cord. Hard to fathom for a circumcision victim like myself.
I’m a koteka guy, myself
We should definitely make this a thing …… but I seriously doubt it’s practical for running
Just secure the tip D:
one time i went to a park with a guy wearing a skirt and no panties, we improvised one of these (tied to his stocking)
This reminds me of a time when I was drunk, and said to my mate “Hey, wanna go run naked on the streets?” and he said “obviously”. So we were running naked in the middle of the night back and forward along the street, and another mate looks out the window, shakes his head and says “you idiots, without me?”. And he also stripped naked, jumped out of the window and joined us. Good times.
Honestly with how much I sweat while running I wish I could run naked somewhere
Nothing is stopping you, I don’t think you’d get in trouble for long so in most of the world. And if it’s not where you are it’s easy to go to a forest or anywhere else that’s secluded enough.
In the US, in most states, getting caught or recognized is enough to put you on the sex offender list. Even if you’re in private. (Again, in most states.) And that means you can no longer move into a new home without informing all your neighbors that you’re a sex offender for the rest of your life, among other penalties. There’s no difference to the US between this and people who actually do sexual crimes when it comes to this punishment.
So, running. Got it.
I had a similar problem with a cafe bar doing a “Bottomless Brunch”.
Anyway, it turns out it’s some weird, trendy new phrase for “all-you-can-eat” or “buffet”.
It is not in any way along the same lines as a “Topless Beach”.
I thought bottemless brunch was a socially acceptable way to get shitfaced before noon on free drinks.
Yes, it does appear that “all-you-can-drink” seems to be part of the offer in many (perhaps all?) cases.
Anyway, definitely don’t start taking off your trousers and underwear.
What? Tech? Who cares. Why do we do this to ourselves ? Just get out and do something. Don’t over think it. Don’t make it worse with pointless guilt trips that really don’t add anything to the end goal. Wear a watch, or don’t… and I don’t care if you double back to get one just cuz you want or need it. That shouldn’t be the thing here. You do it the way you need to.
just so long as you’re getting outside and looking after yourself. That’s the goal here.
Run naked
Hope this guy hasn’t been rawdogging his flights.
I played naked frisbee on the front lawn of my college once. I thought it would be effortless but in fact it’s extremely painful to have your nuts bouncing around unsupported like that. But I kept at it until the Dean of Students came up to me and asked me to put my clothes back on because it was prospective weekend and there were a bunch of high school students with their parents standing off to one side. I thought I was accurately representing what the college was all about but he thought otherwise.
I felt bad years later when I found out the Dean’s brother had been murdered in Mississippi during the civil rights era (they even made a Hollywood movie about this incident). He must have felt great knowing his brother had been killed fighting for black people, and he was busy making stupid white boys put their pants back on.
We make sacrifices so other people don’t have to. I’m sure his brother would not have minded that he has a high paying job and that he can tell stupid white boys to stop making fools of themselves.

I had a similar discovery about kickboxing practice and boxers. It’s not fun when you’re holding a thigh pad for your partner to practice kicking, and you realize that your legs can transmit energy, much like a newton’s cradle.
I thought you were going to say something about naked kickboxing and I was preparing my hardiest “duh”.
All top results on DuckDuckGo for naked running are about the literal meaning of it. Is it actually used as a term for tech-free (but clothed) running? Press X to doubt.
I’d call it “rawdog running” if anything, but that doesn’t sound right either.
I’d say it’s more like unplugged running…wait a minute…
Google brings up some running band with brand “Naked”.
Running without music is so boring. I get tired quicker.
I always run without music! I love the mindfulness of just being aware of my surroundings!
I guess this would very much depend on where you run, though. I would never run on a treadmill without music or a podcast, and running next to traffic would probably also be bad without listening to something.
It’s strange, when I sync up my gait to the tempo of the music, I don’t feel as tired during the run. It seems to help me keep going without feeling like I’m going to drop.
I feel more like I’m dancing when I run or cycle in time to music, and that makes it seem more like fun than exercise. Same rationale as when I got high as a kite before/during my runs/rides. When I quit smoking weed, I was very worried that I was also going to quit exercising but that turned out not to be the case, fortunately.
Second this, when i Run without music, i get more easily Into the Runners high (the Zone), while with Music on, its more difficult at least for me.
You get more wäre of your surroundings and also your Body, which helps me to get Into that meditative-like state before the High hits
I run at the cemetary near my house, its quiet and wooded. The perimeter is a perfect .5 mile loop
Basically the reason Eye Of The Tiger was written and recorded.
Running with music or podcasts has been great for me! To each their own. No guilt here for doing cardio and making it more bearable! Any movement is a win
I stopped running with music when I ran a half marathon once and about 17km in I just started getting annoyed by it. I’m out there dying, and some asshole is screaming into my ears.
Idk, I enjoy running by itself. I ran a full marathon without music and didn’t get bored once. I’d either just enjoy myself, think about random stuff, look around me, play music / sing in my mind etc. But to each their own I guess.
I enjoy music sometimes but it messes with my breathing/pace if I vibe too much. I prefer to keep my thoughts running too
Ok this was funny
I mean obviously it means those things. Where would you keep them while naked?
I always keep music in my ass. Not technology, just the music.
A real prison wallet
That’s where I keep my binoculars!
Up youtlr ass n obviously. But I like listening to a lot of power metal when I run so I just end up cumming when I step outside.
So… running
Retronym.
A new name for something that has changed because of technology. Acoustic guitars and prop planes are examples. Silent movie, black and white movie, antenna televison, etc, etc.
Im old enough to remember when “naked running” meant Streaking. There was even a hit song about it back in the 70s.
Boogidee boogidee
They say it’s not what you know, it’s how soon you know it.
And how many groups of joggers you run up to join before you know it.
They do a naked run every semester at Berkeley the week before finals. Its called dead week, where there’s no classes, and its a time for students to cram for their exams, or, you know, run naked around campus.
Where do people keep their keys?
They still wear shoes, right?
We never understood why one of the local convenience stores advertised this little arm bands that had a pouch built in roughly the size of a wallet. Then we learned the local uni had a big naked run enthusiast community and they regularly invited us you guys from the military base every year they did it.
Mostly people went barefoot but some had on slip ons. Vast majority of people had those arm bands though with an mp3 player or their phone shoved into the pouch, some girls wore sports bras, and some others had what I can only describe as a phanny pack across their middle. My group all wore the arm bands and camelbaks. Good times, would probably kill me to try that again.
I’ve never run with music. It appears to me, to be a pretty dangerous activity in an urban environment. I’ve had a few near misses ‘naked’. Music while running has never really interested me anyway. I’m 55 so maybe that’s why…
Music really helps with interval running ( If that’s the correct word, I have English as second language), just load up a playlist with fitting tempos and then just follow the rhythm.
I prefer to hear the sounds of nature though, but not all live as rural as I
I wear a set of bone conduction headphones and listen to audiobooks. I can hear the reading, but can also hear the biker whizzing up behind me without announcing himself. They’re fantastic.
In some states you could be stalked by a cougar so you want your ears wide open.
I live in Jersey and have a trail I run along the river, and despite the fact I just know there’s nothing stalking me, this one section goes through some thick bamboo, and I always just imagine something is there.
In WA state, young inexperienced cougars attack bikers and runners.
Isn’t it just at or around bars with cheap beer and indoor smoking that cougar attacks spike?
