Call me homophobic but I hate locker rooms. When I go to the gym, I try to go home and change so I don't have to at the gym. A few days ago i did not have time so I brought my cloths with me and changed in the locker room.

Why do some men enjoy prancing around buck naked and striking up a conversation with you in their birthday suit? Sorry gents - GROSS!

Call me a prude but on the rare occasion I go into the sauna, I always wear a bathing suit or towel wrapped around my waist. I can't stand going in there and seeing some 70 year old guy with a shriveled up ...... staring at me. Sorry gents - GROSS!

One last rant - why do guys hang out in the men's whirlpool naked. Sorry gents - GROSS!

In case your wondering, no I don't belong to a "gay" gym - it just seems this is commonplace these days.
 
I think you're a tad sensitive. Of course, I wear glasses and take them off in the sauna/steam room, so I never actuall see all that wang.


But I know its there.

What I hate is the visitors' locker room in small arenas on road trips. They always smell of stale pee...
 
Obviously you've never played a team sport like, for example, hockey, football, or rugby. You need to shower. You need to change. No one cares that you are naked. Do your business and leave. Don't be so self conscious about it. No other guys care about your penis.

No, I've played football in school and agree showers and changing together is normal but we never took sauna's or whirlpools together in the buff.

Do you business and leave is also my point. Why strike up conversation in the nude?

Because people are generally polite to each other? Why not say hello to someone? Just look them in the eye or is that your problem - you can't but help and stare at their johnson?

LOL! No staring at Johnson's for me. Being polite is is one thing, but the desire to carry on long term conversations in the buff is another. If that doesn't bother you -fine with me.

I think you're just simply insecure not only with yourself but with the human form. That has a lot to do with the way you were brought up and what you're used to. I have been shy about revealing myself my whole life. Even though I'm a dancer, I still try to hide behind a locker door when I'm changing at a gym, pool, or spa.

Not at all. I love my Johnson but don't see the need to flash it around and make other guys jealous :D In the locker room, once should change and get on with one's business.
 
Can't think of anything sexier than Joy "revealing herself" to me!!!!

When you're a dancer, you're acting a role. It's a job. When you not, your reactions might be a little more 'genuine'.

I totally understand what the OP is saying. And I say this as a generally well-adjusted, secure and reasonably well-built guy.

I think part of it is that we're conditioned from a very early age to wear clothes. All of our interactions in life - save with parents at a very early age and lovers later in life - occur while we're fully clothed.

Because nakedness is basically considered taboo, I think that we're generally just uncomfortable without our second skin.

If everyone in society had run around naked for most of their lives, I believe things would be different. (And there would probably be fewer overweight people!)

Good argument - I agree.

I tend to agree with the original poster. There's nothing wrong with feeling uncomfortable about the human form when it is shriveled, wrinkled, smelly and disgusting, Joy.

I mean, if you wanna chat with the guys, there's lots of other places to do it. Go to the gym, get your workout in, quickly shower and change and then go for beers and a chicken sandwich. I don't think it's a coincidence that steam rooms and gyms are so popular with homos....

As the song says, it's fun to stay at the YMCA. hahaha

Maybe you do. :D

Seriously, I tend to agree. I don't know why these old guys stand at a sink and shave naked. Geez, wrap a towel around yourself for God sake.
 
First of all...calling us "gents" makes me think you ARE gay! LOL!

Second...you obviously didn't spend much time in locker rooms growing up, so I guess I can understand feeling uncomfortable around naked willies. To be honest...yeah, it's not pretty. But then again, I don't spend my time looking. Perhaps thats your problem?

I can agree that guys might be a little too liberal in the locker room...I don't tend to walk around with nothing on...but I do tend to change at my locker without worrying about guys like you who are staring at other guy's packages! :p
 
I love being naked, if I am in a locker room, I will be naked, I would not be wrapping myself with a towel. That being said, I try and avoid locker room situations, because it does feel a little gay. It is great in Europe, where they are much more accepting of nudity in general, and coed nudity in particular. Part of what makes it uncomfortable here is that when it is guys only, you can be naked, but once there are women around, you have to wear pants. All I want to do is be naked around women. Germany, here I come.

The other thing is, it is better to be able to ignore penises. I enjoy going to the nude beach in Toronto, swinger clubs, saunas in Europe, etc., because there are nude women there, and I enjoy nude women. I know lots of guys who can not enjoy the nude women at Hanlans Point because they are freaked out by the hundreds of nude gay men. The nude gay men do not bother me, I focus on the women. But when there are no women there, just nude gay men, I feel uncomfortable and do not stick around.

"Gents" is short for gentlemen - I don't see how you find being respectful "gay."

You are right - I didn't spend much time in the locker room growing up. Does anyone? I played football in school and we couldn't wait to shower and get dressed after practice or a game and meet up at a bar or restaurant.

Sorry to disappoint you but I am not into "staring at other guy's packages." Perhaps you have grown accustomed to "packages" since you appear to have spent your youth in locker rooms.

Tanya Enberg (check spelling) wrote a column a while back about how nudity (female) in the dressing room made her uncomfortable. Years ago, one of my female tennis partners took her 8 year old son into the lady's dressing room and some of the ladies complained (better to leave him outside so he could be aducted or molested). When one of our guys took his 6 year old daughter into the men's dressing none of the men complained.
 
Not sure what gym the guys are so chatty. Usual people are busy getting showered, changed, out of there. If you are getting chatted up they may be gay!
