Dear Darestars Diva,

I heard on the radio this week about girls pole dancing on the New York subway to make some extra cash. I think it looks like fun! I’m a good dancer, have great legs, and could certainly use the money. Do you think I should try it?

Taking a Poll on Pole

Dear Pole Poll,

Resist the urge! I know that poll dancing on the subway sounds like a blast, and I have Read the rest of this entry »

There’s something wrong with a world where children are regularly exposed to images of extreme violence, but a little bit of nudity sends their parents into a tizzy. I don’t know what precisely it says about our society, but it’s nothing good. Especially since, when you think about it, sex is a fact of life… but violence doesn’t have to be.

I love Keira Knightley. Not only is she beautiful, talented, and an amazing fighter, but the woman loves taking off her clothes. In a recent interview, Ms. Knightly said that she often is incapable of keeping her clothes on in a photoshoot. I say that it’s a glorious thing when any woman is so comfortable in her skin that she wants to show it off every time she can. When that woman is bold enough to do so in front of the harsh critics of Hollywood, it makes me want to call Ms. Knightly one daring star! Read the rest of this entry »

Dear Darestars Diva,

I love the Darestars site. It’s so much fun to see naked men and women enjoying themselves. I have to tell you that, even though I’m a girl, and a straight girl at that, I love seeing the women strip. Is that weird?

Yours Truly
Girls Are Shiny

Dear Girls are Shiny,

Women are beautiful. Women who are comfortable in their skin enough to Read the rest of this entry »

These days, everywhere you look there’s a story about Hollywood stars and starlets and their opinions of nudity. Julia Roberts, Rihanna, Jessica Alba, and Brad Pitt won’t. Daniel Craig and Posh Spice will. What I don’t understand is why skin continues to be such a big deal. Read the rest of this entry »

While compiling today’s nudes round up, I stumbled across no fewer than 5 articles telling me the same, stunningly non-surprising thing. Victoria Beckham, a.k.a. Posh Spice, likes to sleep naked with her hubby. Does this really shock anyone? I know straight men who would happily curl up naked with that man. He’s pretty! Read the rest of this entry »

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Nude not Lewd…..There’s nothing wrong with showing a little skin.

There is nothing inherently sexual about nudity. Throughout Europe, you can find not just topless, but nude, beaches, where no one gives a bit of skin a second thought. Being comfortable in your skin is a beautiful thing, and that comfort makes your skin beautiful.

Many individuals find public nudity to be an extraordinarily sensual, and even spiritual experience. Being able to feel the sun on his skin, without the impediment of clothing, made one visitor to a European nude beach say, “I felt like a child again, or like a cat sleeping in a sunbeam. It was so relaxing. After very little time you cease to notice that you are surrounded by naked people and, instead, just enjoy the day.”

Clothing can also be a needless distraction from the joys of movement. John, a practitioner of naked yoga, says “When I go to an ordinary yoga class, I constantly find myself distracted by my clothing. Instead of sinking fully into a pose, I keep catching myself shifting my shoulders to try and get my shirt to unbind. It’s so wonderful to be able to focus on the yoga. Working naked has vastly improved my practice.” Nudity isn’t only a way to improve yoga. Clothing can interfere with any form of exercise or activity. Being able to work out, or play, in the nude helps individuals re-immerse themselves in the experience, rather than getting caught up in superficial trappings.

At Darestars.com, it is possible to find people exploring all the joys of nudity. From the sensual to the silly, the men and women of Darestars seek out ways to incorporate nakedness into their lives. They find it freeing and empowering. So do the members who log in every day to watch.

Darestars.com is the premier Internet destination for seductive exhibitionism. Founded in 2007 as the site of the world’s first naked talent search, it has expanded to include multiple channels of creative exhibitionist content. The Darestars Entertainment Network is a membership-based site and focuses on providing arousing and provocative adult entertainment with a fresh, positive approach. Most unusually, the Darestars concept was conceived by a woman, Anna Marie Swan, who uniquely brings out the seductive, erotic and exhibitionist personalities of both female and male performers.

If you’d like more information about this topic, or to schedule an interview with any of the Darestars team, please call Anna Marie Swan at 718.729.0885 or e-mail her at as@amarusintl.com.

Dear Darestars Diva,

I want to surprise my boyfriend by doing something new in the bedroom. I thought about stripping for him, but I’m really shy. Worse, I wouldn’t know what to do! The Darestars girls are all so brave!

All Dressed Up With Nowhere To Go

Dear Dressed Up

Good for you! I applaud your desire to be adventurous and bold. Read the rest of this entry »

A lot of people think that stripping and similar forms of sensual exhibitionism objectify women. But what if that act of erotic expression is the woman’s choice?

To objectify something is to depersonalize it. Stripping, in general, probably does depersonalize women. It is, most often, not something an audience watches, because they care about who the performer is. However, just because a woman is being objectified by her audience, or by her viewers, does not mean that stripping is a bad thing. Objectification is not a moral judgment.

Clothing Unbecoming
According to the The Ascension Citizen, a local Louisiana newspaper, the Gonzales, Louisiana city council is trying to outlaw saggy pants. The proposed law says it “”shall be unlawful for any person in any public place, or in view of the public, to intentionally expose his or her genitalia or undergarments, or be guilty of any indecent or Read the rest of this entry »

Dear Darestars Diva,

Why do men have nipples? They’re not functional, or anything. They just sit there not doing much. I mean, sure, they’re fun and all, but do they really have a point?

Dear Smooth Operator:

Actually, nipples on men have two points Read the rest of this entry »

Yoga is a great form of exercise. It makes you strong. It helps you relax. It gets you energized. And, if you live in Cleveland Ohio, it is something you can do in the nude.

A Cleveland studio has recently started offering men-only naked yoga classes. Although started as something of a joke, they’ve actually proven to be incredibly popular. Nude Yoga has made some inroads in other cities as well. Apparently doing downward dog in the nude makes the whole exercise a more spiritual and sensual experience. If nothing else, staring at the person on the mat next to you should be a good distraction from the agony of spending a minute and a half in plank.
