@GalwayGirl. Not me! This is a lifestyle I don’t wish to share with even my closest friends.

The members of your household’s comfort with naked people is the sole determiner of your response. I wouldn’t mind hosting nudists in the slightest. If you feel the same, say yes. If seeing naked people would bother you, say no.

I’m surprised a nudist would book a place with a shared bath. PLUS, nudists also have their own dedicated hosting platforms, don’t they? Although I bet the coverage is spotty. (Ha! See what I did there?!)

Ask your mother! I bet she will know how to respond!
Personally I’d decline as there are places that welcome nudists but maybe not in your area. He could just go to a hotel and walk around nude in his room but not in the elevators or lobby

It’s not the parading around that I mind as much, it’s the sitting. Do nudists bring a towel that they sit on? Because I don’t want bare junk on my furniture.

Why not ask him to define it himself? Including,
whether this is alluding to on his person or in his luggage.
Not sure what this means. He’s not asking the host to partake in his nudist venture is he?
What about ‘closet nudists’ who wouldn’t expose it that they are nudists but strip off first thing they get into your room and stick their naked butt on your chair? Or even on the piano in the corner!
Ok, this may sound fanciful, but once they’re in their room we don’t know what they do with their bodies, do we.
At least this guy’s come out full frontal to reveal his… erm, lifestye!
For anyone inclining towards declining, what happened to the principle of non-discrimination? I mean, there’s much enthusiasm in certain quarters about any form of discrimination happening even to the slightest with ethnic, religious or sexual minorities. As such how different are a ‘sartorial’ minority?!
As long as he agrees to go about adequately clothed at the host’s place and in the immediate vicinity, is there really a problem?

I had a similar request a few months ago. I am an in-home host and really didn’t fancy sharing communal areas with a naked stranger.

I believe that if the guest planned to be “adequately clothed” at the listing he/she wouldn’t have mentioned his/her nudist lifestyle. I think it’s safe to assume that the guest plans to be naked at the listing.

I’m not sure that it’s discrimination to prefer not to share my home with someone who’s walking around naked. That is the nudist lifestylyle
They are not a protected class in the United States of America.

These are just assumptions. It even sounds a bit disparaging.
Ok, I don’t know too much about how nudists go about this - I should think their nudism is confined to certain nudist camps, obscure British House of Lords late-night parties and such.
I don’t need the United States of America to dictate my ethical stand, and consequently (within the law of the land) my behavior.

These are not assumptions at all. I know plenty about nudists as that’s how I grew up. No, their nudism is not confined to nudist camps. My mother would only wear clothes if there were legal consequences for failing to do so and sometimes not even then. As I said previously, it’s obvious that the guest is asking if it’s okay to be naked in common areas. If they planned to limit being naked to their bedroom and the bathroom there would be no need to discuss it with the host.

Ok, it’s not been obvious to me, whether it’s then a matter of saying no to the nudity or the actual booking itself.
Thanks for the link. It says
defending personal and social nudity
and then
practised individually… or in public
If you’re sure it’s the and and not the or I’ll take your word for it, and I guess I’ll go back to the jokes!

I don’t understand why you’re digging your heels in on this as it appears to be outside of your knowledge. Why do you think the guest would bring his/her nudism up if the host wouldn’t see the guest naked?

So, in a lighter vein…
Two first-time nudists, strangers to each other, sitting at a cottage patio in a nudist camp. Awkward silence for a while. One of them tries to break the ice:
A: Have you read Marx?
B: Yes I do, it must be these cane chairs…
