About Us


Our purpose:

 -OMEN is a not-for-profit social fellowship for adult gay male naturists/nudists.

 

Confidentiality & Golden Rule:

-Confidentiality & respect are required.  

-“The Golden Rule” applies, … members contribute “a playful and engaging spirit” and “a good attitude and open heart to enjoy those present.” 

 

Events:

-Events typically include a potluck meal in a private home.  

-Everyone brings a suitable food offering to share, an individual beverage, and a towel to sit on.  

-“Common sense & common courtesy” require each individual to be responsible for respecting comfort levels of others.

 

Legal & Lawful:

-OMEN is a social fellowship (not a sex club), and does not equate private nudity (which is legal in Oregon) with sexual license.  

-Behaviors that are illegal or endanger personal or group welfare (disturbing the peace, illicit drugs, public obscenity, etc.) are prohibited.

 

Membership:
