As mentioned above, safety and the cold are the considerations i take when working and gardening. Safety goggle, gloves, boots suitable clothing. I'd rather protect myself than getting hurt. The other consideration is the thoughts of some people else I'm naked most of the time.
What I've noticed is that I'm more content in whatever I'm doing when I'm naked and things get done!

I don't know why, it justs feels right and good. I only wish others would recognise the benefits of nudity.

You are right John, and I wish more of others would recognise this too.

I think one of the things we need to consider when getting on with chores naked is that our bodies are much more delicate and prone to hurt then they maybe would have been if we had grown up naked, another is that we have maybe got used to not taking certain natural precautions due to the fact we know our clothes will protect us. 

Steve has a theory that modern man has genitals that are more "showers" than "growers" than in years gone by. As modern man has his penis protected by layers of clothing that not only prevents random harm but also keeps it warm wrapped in layers. I think it makes sense, our naked ancestors would have wanted their genitals out of harms way while hunting, foraging, climbing trees, maybe fighting as well as dealing with weather conditions. If you look at most or maybe all other animals they keep this part of them as close to their bodies as possible until actually needed. 

I guess also as modern humans we tackle things that we maybe would have ignored centuries back. When we didn't own land we would not have attempted to clear it of brambles but just stayed clear.  

If I had to condense it down to one thought it would be: "It feels good!!".  

The initial reactions of folks who swim naked for the first or hike naked is usually about how it feels.  They can use words like "freedom" but the bottom line is that they personally really enjoy being without clothes.

Personally I do virtually everything naked, cutting the grass, weeding and planting the borders and painting the shed and fencing, almost all DIY is done nude, indoors is the same, I do all my housework and cooking nude, really can’t see the need to wear clothes if I don’t have too

As I’ve said in other posts, I’m very fortunate that my neighbours are very accepting of my naturist lifestyle which means I can do everything nude without worrying about upsetting others 

I will put clothes on for certain things like using a chainsaw or welding it would be silly not to wear PPE 

It has never made sense to me when people talk about painting the house naked to avoid getting paint on clothes.  I'd rather have paint on old clothes that don't matter, than have it on my skin, and have to try to remove it afterwards.

Conversely it would make complete sense to me to be naked when washing the car.  Not that I've ever had the chance to do so!

Mostly I'd just like to be comfortable and safe.  If the most sensible way to do something is naked, then I'd like the freedom to do that.  Opportunities to work naked are limited in my life, but one thing I did last year was to take a bicycle wheel to my naturist club and fit a solid tyre to it while I was there.  It's a bit of a longer process than fitting a normal tyre, and as it was something I had to do anyway, I had the pleasure of getting the job done and being able to do it naked outside in the sunshine.

I often imagine what it would be like to live in a naturist community and just be free to wear clothes or be naked as you see fit, indoors and outdoors, 24/7.  I think it would be a very agreeable way to live.
