TNTMEN PRIDE 2006 AWARD

TNT!MEN is a fully legal and democratic social group for men, without discrimination or prejudice.

We are a group of fun loving men who:.
- enjoy being naked with other men;
- promote camaraderie and respect for the body;
- create a friendly, welcoming environment for naked socializing and making friends;
- provide a variety of naked social events in many different settings;
- promote body and social acceptance toward nudity;
- come from all walks of life, social status, ages (above nineteen) and interests;
- and form a fully recognized organization by the Federation of Canadian Naturists (FCN).

We hold and sponsor naked events, with as few as a couple to as many as several hundred men during swims, yoga, bowling, dances, house-parties, game nights, art showings, retreats, special interest gatherings, or other such healthy physical social activities. Attendee numbers are restricted by space limitations or are set by the host(s). We do not allow activities
involving sex or illicit drugs, while (audio, still or video) recordings are limited to officially approved artists, who always have received permission by the subject(s), and the board of TNT!MEN, prior to these recordings. Our
members or guests are consenting adults of the minimum age of nineteen.

Our membership year runs from July first to June thirtieth of the subsequent year. The best way to become a member is to print the membership application from the website and personally take this to one of our official
TNT!MEN events with your membership payment of twenty five dollars (thirty dollars for out-of-country members.) In this case you will receive a discount of up to four dollars for that event, usually making it a free event. You could also mail your membership application with your cheque, but in this case, you don't get the benefit of a free event. Your membership card will be waiting for your pick-up at the next official event. Once you are a member, you can make use of our early renewal drive at a reduced rate from February to June the first, after which period it returns to its usual rate. Members enjoy numerous benefits, as you can read about in the 'membership benefits' section of this website.

TNT!MEN does not have its own clubhouse. Therefore, we always use public facilities or private residences for our gatherings. On average, our events are attended by approximately forty percent members, 60 percent non-members and are open to all men (members and non-members alike) of any sexual orientation. We recognize out-of-town nudist/naturist memberships of sister organizations from around the globe, and admit them at the reduced TNT!MEN member's rate, if this is made known to us.

When attending a naked event, expect to be greeted at a registration centre near the entrance. Please identify yourself as a member or non-member. For a few events a reservation is required. After you pay your entrance fee, you will usually be shown where to get naked and where to store your clothes.

In licensed establishments patrons must wear shoes to protect them from injuries and to avoid facility liabilities, whereas in most private homes this is up to the host, or left to your own discretion. Body jewellery or accessories are usually acceptable as long as the genitals are exposed. Textiles are usually frowned upon, although from time to time these may be required for added warmth, depending on climate, temperature or surroundings, such as during retreats or outdoor activities, while also being useful to avoid pesky insects. If you are uncertain about specific body enhancements, body-jewellery or accessories, it's always best to check the specific applicable rules. Leather accessories or non-waterproof body or suntan lotions are rarely permitted within wet areas such as pools, saunas and steam-rooms, and should be removed prior to using these facilities.

Besides the general facility house-rules, you must also adhere to our own club rules and regulations when coming to our events. When going to a gathering in a private home, guests are expected to bring their own personal towel to sit on, or to lean against, to help protect the resident's furniture. Our events are strictly social and fun. Any host(s) has the right to bar or eject anyone from their premises for a non-compliance to club or general house rules, or to previously established undesirability.

Always be aware of the sensitivities or sensibilities of your fellow
attendees. Some may be attending a naked event for the first time and could feel apprehensive about it, or they may need some extra help to start a conversation. Some may not be gay, whereas others may simply not be as extroverted as you are. The golden rule is to respect others, while contributing to the general atmosphere of fun for everyone, often leading to some new like-minded friends.

In conclusion, besides having fun, there is one final note to remember when going to any nudist or naturist event. Being naked does not give you a licence to be rude. Proper personal hygiene is always important, but even more so, when you are naked! On the other hand, using too much cologne or scents can be just as obnoxious and rude.
