40 things to do naked!

Sure, you get naked when you have sex and take showers — at least, we hope you do. But if that’s all you do in the buff, you’re missing out. “Wearing nothing at all is totally freeing and can make you appreciate your body,” says psychologist Catherine Cardinal, PhD, author of A Cure for the Common Life. Here’s a list of easy things to try nude when you’re with your guy, alone, and with friends (hey, you only live once).

TRY THESE WHEN YOU ARE WITH YOUR GUY

1. Put on a fashion show. Tell him you want his opinion on a pair of shoes you just bought. He’ll roll his eyes—until he sees that you’re wearing only the shoes.

2. Talk on the phone. Set a phone date with your guy for a naked good night. You don’t even have to discuss the fact that you’re nude—just knowing it will make your chat sexier.

3. Play Wii. The vision of your guy trying to bowl a strike without pants on will have you giggling for months... And he’ll love watching you play tennis.

4. Read Cosmo. Read our story What Guys Know About Sex That You Don’t with him, and tell him that his secret’s out!

5. Paint your bedroom. Pick a bright, lively colour for one wall. You can clean each other up afterward.

6. Take a mid-afternoon nap. Turn up the air-conditioning and wrap a blanket tightly around your intertwined bodies.

7. Do an exotic body treatment on each other. Rubbing a dry loofah all over your body was a tradition in ancient Turkish baths—it leaves your skin silky smooth and gets your blood pumping. Take turns rubbing each other down in the steam of a warm shower. Then soap up and wash off.

8. Have your own martini party. Be sure to ask for yours shaken, just to see him wiggle his ass.

9. Wash the dishes. Do it messily enough and it’ll double as a shower!

10. Have him paint your toe nails. Even if he’s not great at it, it’ll be cute watching him try.

11. Play an old-school board game, like Monopoly. There’s no way he can cheat— where would he hide the money?

12. Paint each other. Order some body paint, and spend Saturday night indulging your creative sides.

13. Run through the sprinklers in your backyard if it’s surrounded with high walls, naked. We’ve done it as kids, but this way, it’ll turn into a decidedly adult activity.

14. Splurge on a couples spa treatment. Spending time relaxing together will erase the stress of your week.

15. Grab a deck of cards and play strip war. Make a rule that the loser has to stay naked all night.

16. Test a bunch of perfumes. Spray them on different body parts, and ask him to find where the various scents are.

17. Make ice-cream sundaes. Go ahead, eat with abandon. If you spill, just lick it off each other.

TRY THESE WHEN YOU’RE FLYING SOLO...

18. Do your makeup sans clothing before a night out. Not only will it help you get in a sexy mood, but you also won’t have to worry about spilling powder on your dress.

19. Clean your closet. If you’re nude, you can easily try on clothes to see if they should go in either the toss or keep pile.

20. Write your guy a lust letter. Be sure to let him know you’re naked as you write it (Clothing is optional when you deliver it).

21. Curl up and watch a DVD. Choose a sensual flick like Secretary or Moulin Rouge. Avoid anything that’ll cause hearty belly laughs, like Superbad—a jiggly tummy won’t make you feel good.

22. Dance. Put on tunes by Lady Gaga or Katy Perry, and rock out with your… Stuff out.

23. Cook a fancy dinner. When it’s ready, pour some wine, light some candles, and strip down.

24. Shop online. The great thing about looking for new stuff via your laptop is you can do it in the buff without mall cops chasing you down.

25. Ditch the pajamas at bedtime. You’ll sleep much more peacefully if your clothes aren’t bunching up and irritating you every time you roll over.

26. Pay your bills. Somehow, writing cheques feels less painful when you’re wearing nada.

27. Practice new hairstyles. Take a look at some photos of celebs on the red carpet, find a hair look you like, then do your best to re-create it. Without anything on, you’ll be able to really zero in on the do and decide if it’s right.

28. Knit. Pick a supersoft yarn. The cozy feel against your skin will light up your brain’s reward centre.

29. Pleasure yourself. No explanation needed on why this is a good, awesome idea.

30. Give yourself a deep-conditioning treatment. Since they usually need to stay on your hair for about 10 minutes, it’s a great excuse to indulge in a little nudity.

31. Sit on the internet and plan a vacation. Being naked is as casual as it gets, so it’ll instantly put you in the laid-back mind-set to plot out the perfect getaway.

32. Chill out after a trip to the gym. Your body will be taut from exercising, and you’ll be able to fully appreciate all that hard work you just put in. The best way to do it is by lying down straight on your back on the floor with limbs spread out!

33. Be a nude model. Sure, you’ll have to conjure up all your courage, but just think about what a fantastic story it will make. Contact art departments of nearby colleges to inquire about modeling for classes. A lot of the time, they’ll cover parts of you with a sheet, so you aren’t baring all to strangers. Or stand in front of the mirror and draw yourself!

34. Shower outdoors at any opportunity. If you’re at a friend’s beach house or a hotel and you spot an outdoor shower, strip down and use it.

35. Arrange flowers. There’s something about putting together a gorgeous spring arrangement that will bring nature into your space—when you’re au naturel yourself.

36. Put together a sex playlist. You’ll be naked when you listen to it—so why not make it when you’re that way too?

TRY THESE WHEN YOU’RE WITH YOUR GIRL-FRIENDS...
37. Take a strip class. Find a private instructor who’s willing to teach you and your pals how to take it all off.

38. Go skinny-dipping. Whether you try it in a pal’s hot tub or a private pool at a farmhouse, swimming nude is a fun, silly way to pass the time. And what better time than the monsoons to try it out!

39. Watch episodes of Friends on DVD. You can laugh when they poke the naked guy across the street!

40. Have a clothing swap. Ask friends to bring anything that they no longer wear or that doesn’t fit. Then open a bottle of wine, peel off what you have on, and try on one another’s stuff to see if there’s a dress or shirt worth trading for.
