    Default Just don't understand...

    In the locker room - I will never understand this - naked men walking around being naken. One guy, 3 feet from me, swinging around has he unloaded his duffel and dug for shaving gear. One guy was naked the whole time I was there. I'm not sure what he was doing - but as I passed to the toilet, he was naked. As I passed to the shower he was naked. He got into the shower next to me and I thought he was oddly close to the divider - could see the top of his head inches away. Wondered if he was peepin' me. As I left he was still naked.

If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    I had a guy in the sauna, while I am in shorts and a towel, he is butt naked. He stands up, almost directly in front of me, and starts stretching and trying to touch his toes. Yes, I saw his nekkid rear end. And I also saw something dangling, and quickly looked away, but am now scarred for life. Some people just don't care.

    I thought guys were more accepting of nakedness. At my former (wah!) gym, many of us would hit the steam or shower naked, while alone. Someone else came in? We'd grab the towel. Didn't matter if the 2nd coming in was 200lbs or 90; 85 or 22. Same thing.

    Women are considerate in general.

    Not me, never, no way now how. Simply don't want to see the "junk" from another man, not on purpose and not accidentally.

    I can't believe you guys were in the military and yet remain so insecure about your bodies.

    When I ran track in high school, I shared a locker room with about 50 other girls. With a few exceptions, no one had the slightest hesitation about disrobing.
    Of course, women don't have junk in their trunk, either.

    I wasn't military. I wasn't into disrobing/showering in front of other guys my whole life, especially in HS. I am much better at the gym now, as I will do so, and unafraid, but I still don't like it and will use a towel whenever possible, and I would hope that others would give the same courtesy!

    I'm insecure about THEIR bodies...not mine.

    Oh I dunno. There is a certain charm to that pose.

    I hate to be the one to break the news to you but his intent was obvious.....you just didn't get the message, which you would have understood if it had been a woman waving her ass in your face.....

    Is it possible to remove "rep" previously given?

    In this case for wasting thread space by starting one about naked men when there's a plethora of hot Olympic chicks we've yet to see?

    I've been reduced to a short stack of buttons, dammit.
