Gooning: What It Is and Why It’s Trending

There’s something deliciously subversive about entering a “goon state” – that hypnotic, edge-of-release space where time dissolves and sensation takes over. On Everything To Sea trips, we’re all about conscious pleasure, freedom without shame, and exploring your edge in ways that feel expansive rather than performative. So when we came across this deep dive into gooning, we couldn’t help but lean in. This article was originally published by Out.com. Whether you’re goon-curious or already fluent in the art of extended self-exploration, it’s a conversation worth having.

AI Has Opinions About Your Body

Type a few words into an image generator — “naked man,” “male nude,” “intimate portrait” — and within seconds, bodies appear. Smooth, confident, posed. Strangely familiar. Strangely bloodless. In an age where AI can undress a man faster than most people can unbutton a shirt, it’s worth slowing down and asking what’s actually being revealed. This post briefly references reporting from a Wired article discussing how generative AI depicts people.

Crossing the Line (and Maybe Losing Your Clothes)

Somewhere between myth and mischief, sailors have always found excuses to turn long voyages into something a little ceremonial — and a lot unforgettable. Long before hashtags or group chats, crossing the Equator came with its own rites of passage: saltwater baptisms, playful humiliation, Neptune-approved nonsense… and yes, on certain boats, a perfectly reasonable excuse to lose the clothes and leap into the sea. Call it tradition. Call it bonding. Call it sailors being sailors.

It’s So Hard… to Talk About Erections

Censored. Erased. Ignored… Telegram Shut Us Down.

At Everything To Sea, we’ve always been a little too naked for the comfort of corporate overlords. And apparently, “liberation of the male body” is just too scandalous for Instagram, Facebook, and yes—even Telegram. They police our skin, erase our freedom, and pretend men’s bodies are dangerous. We say: that’s exactly why they matter.

Dean and Ray – Reflections on our Boat

When you put a group of men on a boat for several days with no TV, something magical happens: conversations turn into adventures of their own. That’s exactly what unfolded when co-founder Dave sat down with Ray and Dean, a couple celebrating both twenty years together and a milestone birthday, during our Everything To Sea cruise. What started as a chat about what kind of “show” this trip would be (spoiler: White Lotus, but without the deaths) turned into reflections on naked firsts, unexpected camaraderie, and the kind of mental photos you can’t capture on an iPhone.

Me, Suddenly Exposed: The Clothed Male / Naked Male Kink

There’s something undeniably electric about being the only naked one in the room. It’s not just about nudity—it’s about contrast, vulnerability, power, curiosity… and sometimes, arousal. An article we found on deviantart.com (slightly edited for readability) dives deep into CMNM—Clothed Male / Naked Male. It’s a fascinating dynamic where layers of clothing reveal much more than they hide. Whether playful, accidental, fetishistic, or rooted in long-standing male rituals, CMNM sheds light on the way men connect, challenge, and charge the air between them.

10 Things You Didn’t Know About The Penis

As the old saying goes, “A rising tide lifts all boats.” Well, that’s a wrap on our brief dive into the world of penile erections, courtesy of Medical News Today. Who knew that cornflakes were once touted as a masturbation deterrent, or that the penis could actually break? We certainly didn’t! But hold on, there’s more to discover about the schlong in this article. Keep reading, and you’ll look at your breakfast — and your pecker — a little differently.

The Male Gender and the Sexual Realm

This blog post explores different aspects of growing up male, erotic orientation, and what it means to have a healthy sexuality. It’s not always easy for guys to find their way through gender and sexual realms. Check out this article found on kimberlykeiser.com, which explores these themes.

He Likes Naked Sailing with Other Guys… Is He Gay?

“Help! My Husband Enjoys Sailing Naked and Drinking Beers With Gay Men. What do you think this could mean?”

We found the above question in the advice column known as “Dear Prudence” in Slate Magazine. Check out the full query, below… and Prudence’s response, afterwards:

Nudity and the Fullness of Manhood

Have you ever wondered why guys avoid being naked in locker rooms? Is it about society’s rules? How we’re raised? Perhaps, a sign of the changing times? Check out this article we found on the subject – edited for brevity – by Kevin Frye on medium.com.

Why Do Men Love Spicy Food So Much?

Hungry for some good musing about food and men? Check out this article from GQ.com. It suggests that men may define themselves by their tolerance for spice. The author wonders why this has become such a common trend in our gender. Does it make men look more travelled, cultured or classy? Or is it nothing more than a culinary dick-swinging contest?

Meet An Everything To Sea Traveler! Ric Grant

We really enjoy getting to know the guys who join our trips through deep conversations. We’d love to share this honest conversation between Everything To Sea and Ric, a traveler who came aboard our boat in October 2022. Ric is a freight operations manager (choo-choo!) who loves spending his free time camping naked in the bush of Australia. He inspired us with his story and we’d like to highlight him in this post as part of our blog series called “Meet Another Everything To Sea Traveler.”

No Small Issue: Bigorexia

At Everything To Sea, we sometimes get inquiries from guys who want to be naked with other men, but they’re holding back due to fear of rejection. We’re proud to provide a body-positive space for all men to engage in social nudity, free of judgment to others. But what about judging yourself? Giving yourself a break from self-criticism is extremely freeing and empowering. Envision a future where every body belongs.

Despite the body-positive movement mostly being focused on women, it’s important to acknowledge that men have body image struggles, too. Unfortunately they’re not as openly discussed or diagnosed. One condition in particular is disproportionally affecting men, accelerated by gym culture and fitness influencers. Read more in the following excerpt from a mental health article by VeryWell Mind.

Don’t Sulk at Your Next Birthday

At Everything To Sea, we sometimes get inquiries from guys that are along these lines: “I’m dreaming of joining a trip, but I’m worried I won’t fit in because of my age.” The fact is, men from every decade join our trips. And we’ve found that everyone has something to contribute, which ultimately forms a unique voyage. From muscles and eye-candy, to knowledge and experience and depth, to humor and positive attitude, it’s our firm belief that every man who comes aboard our ship is interesting on some level. And it’s the variety of backgrounds and life experiences that make each of our trips memorable and fun.

Aging is a topic that’s normally perceived as negative… and related to loss. But there are legitimate, positive gains to growing older – though often overlooked or downplayed. We enjoyed this article from Outside Magazine, which talks “on the harder-to-measure benefits of age and experience.” It dives into scientifically measured benefits of growing older. We hope you enjoy this blog post – why don’t you tell us your reaction, in the Comments section, below!
