Originally posted by FunkyCrew I hear ya, C I'm not overly sensitive at all and it still bugs me, so I doubt it's all to with our sensitivity levels I strongly agree that it's to do with upbringing and FYI, whoever mentioned Europe and old ladies tanning topless - they only do it on vacation, you'll never catch them doing that when their on their own soil

Errr have you been to the beaches in France? or in Belgium/Holland? Everyone is always topless and most of them are from there. Same thing in Spain lol. Nobody gives a shit because it's your body.

I just don't see what the big deal is about people walking around naked or tanning topless. Who gives a shit lol If older people are comfortable enough with their bodies to do this then more the power to them.

Also, as many have pointed out already: changing room = room to take your clothes off, get naked, shower, put your clothes back on. Nakedness will happen. If you don't like it, then change at home and go home all sweaty and gross. At least you won't have to look at nekkies

I've learned to stare directly at the ground and change as quickly as possible to avoid being grossed out.......I realize that we are all the same under our clothes but personally, it makes me uncomfortable to be around all that nudity...especially when it's so unnecessary....how hard is it to throw on underwear/bra or a towel?

This statement speaks volumes about *you* and has little to do with the nacth people around you.

Get over your hangups, peeps - if you're uncomfortable around nudity, it might be time to take a look into *why* that's the case. Too easy to point the finger outside of yourself, rather than looking inside for the answer.

thats exactly what I do
I walk home and shower in my own shower, because gym showers = gross

anyway, I don't understand why people have to be butt naked, that's all.. like we've already mentioned - nothing's wrong with having at least some underwear on

that's what I'm trying to get at!

I have nothing against strutting around naked my own house or being seen in the underwear by my room mate.. however in front of total strangers? not so much.. and I don't understand why others feel compeled to do that

Maybe they don't see everyone else around them as being "total strangers", hence the different level of comfort from yours.

I believe that many people share my thoughts on attempting to preserve a basic level of modesty, especially in PUBLIC places......and if you think that the fact that I dont enjoy buck-naked strangers lounging around aimlessly right in front of me 'speaks volumes about me', then I'm cool with that.

ps....im not sure i know exactly what 'nacth people' are, but i'm sure i wouldn't like them either

You should ask the Japanese how they feel about living in one of their traditional shoji homes. Papers for walls basically. I'll leave the rest to your imaginations

Basically, if it's not your business, ignore it.

modesty + church = yes

modesty + Dubai = yes

modesty + change and shower room at your local gym = no

P.S.: This thread is like, totally ironical, 'cuz the young people complaining in it are the ones who sound like crotchey old people.

Seen?

+ a million points for using a KITH clip to illustrate your point.

I can't wait to get old.....I'll walk around everywhere with no pants on....just blame it on the dementia.

Hear, hear.


And yes, I came late into this thread.

Originally posted by Yohan I have enough worries in life to give a damn about opinions of a lot of people who doesn't really matter in my life. Plus I'm completely comfortable with myself, including what I look like. It's genetics. I can't fight that. So, it's okay that I'm Asian or have an oddly shaped head or whatever. But, that's just me

Yohan, I totally agree with this statement as well the rest of your responses in this thread. And you're hilarious.

Yohan for Prez

I think we should hold a public discussion on this. Meet you at the thermae.

Did you know that the root of the word gymnasium, 'gymnos' means 'naked' in ancient Greek.

HMM.. back in the day gymnasiums were places where athletes trained.. naked!

Imagine if you not only had someone changing naked next to you, but running naked next to you too! Whoa-ho. Lookout.

Maybe that's why the elderly folk are runnin' around balls out. Lol. (jk)

and I don't understand why girls still wear uggs. It's personal choice.

I used to be weirded out by people who didn't give a shit about being naked but then I realized it was because I wish I felt the same level of comfort and confidence being that way. Now I don't give a shit as much. I get dressed but if it's not convenient to do so, I don't. IE I do not "towel change" in front of others. WE'VE ALL GOT THE SAME GOODS DOWN THERE.
