Woman who works on 2,000-person nude cruise reveals what she tells passengers to do if they get aroused

Technically, passengers are not permitted to get aroused...

A woman who worked on a nude cruise housing 2,000 people detailed what she told passengers if they ever got aroused.

Earlier this year, all the talk was about these so-called nude cruises, with many passengers going to the press to discuss what happens when everyone walks around butt-naked.

There's not meant to be anything sexual and NSFW about these cruises, but what happens if a passenger does get a little too excited?

You'd think having to embark on one of these cruises would be the only way to experience what they are all about, but many people who have worked on them have detailed what really goes on.

One cruise ship passenger who 'disembarked from a 2,000 person nude cruise' back in last year took to Reddit to lift the lid on their unique experience.

Meanwhile, Kat Whitmire, a cruise organizer for the nudist-cruise company Bare Necessities, has also lifted the lid on what really goes on.

Speaking to Business Insider, Whitmire explained that it's actually a rule onboard the ship that 'men can't be overly excited'.

She also shared the advice she offers to men if they start to feel themselves entering a certain situation.

Whitmire said: "We say that if they start to feel things around moving down there, jump in cold water, or think about baseball."

The organizer's advice helps explain what a male naked cruise passenger said about the issue of arousal when a Reddit user asked whether accidental erections were 'frowned upon'.

The man explained that boners 'almost never happen' on board, saying: "This cruise is very non-sexual, so a man would want to hide it somehow. Non-nudists think about this a lot more than nudists do."

It turns out that the anti-arousal rule is just one of a number of stipulations Bare Necessities has in place for passengers; another being that passengers must ask permission before taking a photo with someone else in it.

Another rule relates to the one place where clothes must be worn - the formal dining room.

Whitmire explains that there is a dress code of 'no nips, no bits and no butts' in the dining room, largely because the staff working there often carry trays of hot food, and no naked person wants to be on the receiving end of that disaster.

Before she started working as an organizer for Bare Necessities, Whitmire and her husband actually worked as models on their first cruise after being approached by a friend who worked there as a photographer.

They returned over the following years to work as general staff, before Whitmire got the job as a sales associate in 2010 and officially became a full-time employee.
