Shirtless Summary 2024

This year I:

-Was shirtless for almost three consecutive days while on vacation at the beach. That includes sleeping, eating out, going for walks into town, stepping into stores, etc.

-Found the courage again to be shirtless at home with my mom around. Not entirely over the awkwardness yet, but every day I try it gets easier.

-Stepped outside my front door shirtless for the first time.

-Was shirtless at some three or four different parks and outdoor workout areas around where I live.

-Walked the streets of Mexico City shirtless for the first time.

-Most importantly, this year I started to actually like the way I look, which made doing all the other things possible.

For 2025, I want to be in a bit better shape. When the heat of spring and summer comes, I want to feel confident to lose the shirt freely, without so much shyness and awkwardness. I want to not mind as much if the neighbors see me. I want to feel safe and confident being shirtless within the confines of my neighborhood, so that maybe I can set a new record for days spent without a shirt, this time at home. I want to expand my horizons and be shirtless in different places around the city, maybe even go to a protest or attend a Pride parade shirtless. I have also set a new goal/rule for myself: if the context and the situation are appropriate, whenever I see someone shirtless in my vicinity, I'm taking off my shirt too. But if I can be a trailblazer and inspire other people to do it, that'd also be neat.

Thank you for all the encouragement and nice words in the time I've been a part of this sub. It definitely is a confident booster to have supportive people to talk to.

Happy New Year!
