In a guys lockerroom, by and large, most of the guys walk around buck naked, saying, "Hey, Bob, how's it going?", blah, blah, blah. At my gym, there are about 12 showers with no separation. Guys are shooting the breeze, talking about what they're doing with their families on the weekend.
A small percentage wear a towel.
My wife says that women's lockerrooms have (mostly) separate showers so, that women can shower individually. And most women wear towels to and from the shower. Supposedly, the younger the woman, the more inhibited.
Is that an accurate depiction of men's and women's culture? How are you guys in this scenario?
I guess it isnt the norm in WA but in HS where I went we never showerd for gym so I never had any prep for lockeroom edict all we had was changing into PE clothes.
I guess here showering in HS was MANDATORY after gym I think that is messed up but anyway back to the question.
Me and a few friends went swimming for a few months regulary at the HS pool and the showers are all open no privacy whatsoever and about shree spickets per showerhead so if many girls taking a shower you would be elbow elbow.
I showerd with my swimsuit off I have never got undress infront of anyone if it wasnt with a man for whatever or a Dr. or medical reason.
I am extemely shy and modest most I would do is not care if one of my girlfriends saw me in a bra. I found at the swim place most woman baring all were either preteens maybe 14 max hard to say since girls are growing so fast these days but I would say toddler to about 12-14 and than modesty until you hit about 30's seemed the older the woman the more willing to bare all she was and NONE of these woman were in shape.
I have one friend that will undress and stuff not caring but she is the one always getting drunk and topless at social events:P
