Locker Room Nudity

In the locker room situation which is more embarrassing being seen naked by a someone you know or a stranger?

It never mattered to me. In my younger years, at the YMCA and during PE classes, you’d be naked in front of your best friends as well as guys you didn’t know as well while swimming or taking showers. Nowadays, nudity is rarely seen in these situations. I MISS the OLD DAYS....

This is her similar but slightly different than the "Level of undress in male locker rooms" Thread. Being seen naked by6 other guys in the locker room doesn't bother me - unless they whistle!!

Being see by guys I know happened all the time when growing up and showering after PE. To me we all looked pretty much the same. As I got older I was seen often in the college gym showers by strangers. No problem; some I saw all the time as our workout time was the same. Others were one or two times.

For me its way more embarrassing to be seen naked by someone I know. Not in a bad way really but way more scared of people I know seeing me naked. Now I LOVE being naked and seen by strangers!

I'm with you in this one @thebreeze23 !

I'm not (that) modest if surrounded by total strangers, even if I'd end up seeing them often (for instance by getting a Gym Membership) When I'm in the Locker room although I don't parade naked, I don't cover either. But If it was in front of someone I know I'm sure I'd feel really embarrassed, considering I don't pack that well (slightly above average according to my Doctor when I asked him in my mid teens) and I tend to shrink after a workout session.

I can cope when people that I barely know, look at me when I'm in that state (although sometimes I've found younger guys showering next to me that were larger soft than me erected) but it'd be way much embarrassing if they were people like coworkers, former classmates or neighbor friends that know me well since I was a kid! That's why I used to do all my Physical Activities (before Lockdown) in other neighborhoods pretty far from my own, to avoid that kind of "Unexpected Nude Encounters"!

THE purpose of a locker room is changing your clothes. Or store them. Sometimes you are naked. I don’t see any problem in that....

Being a bi-sexual male i began having times of arousal from nudity at a young age and of course during p.e. at school was seen nude and observed many others in the same state in locker room and showers previously having had undressed in full view of each other and standardly us all attired in a jockstrap that also a erotic encounter especially as they were being removed it the last of any modesty as some were erect and others flacid which could alter once in shower soaping up and over. I remember going to beach bath houses , and a local corporate business sports club for employees and guest such as myself. I even recently on the premise of membership was given a tour of a ymca inc. Locker Room area seeing nudity of a few there. Yes i have had lots of locker room nudity thru the years, inc. H.S. football also. I guess i am a bit exibitionist and voyeur also. Fretter

I go to the gym regular and change in front of friends and strangers so i wouldnt be embarassed at all

Neither situation is embarrassing for me - I get undressed just as easily in front of strangers as in front of friends.

I'd rather be nude in front of strangers than friends. That holds true for heathcare as well, though that's making less and less a difference as I get older.

I really never gave it much thought. I have undressed and showered in front of friends and strangers at gyms.

I did get a surprise when I was with a male coworker a few years back. We booked some spa time and massages. After checking in at the front desk at Spa Deco we were handed towels and pointed in the direction of the changing room. One changing room for everybody. I think he may have been more in shock than me. I did offer to wait for him to finish, but after a peak into the room it seems it really did not matter much. Many people of both sexes in there.

We just went for it and had a good laugh later at the hotel bar.

If I am naked or in the middle of changing and a friend comes by I am initially self conscious. That disappears rather quickly and I become comfortable. Strangers do not bother me in the least. I frequently go to the sauna nude and sit with strangers with only a towel to sit on. Some others come in nude also, but over the last few years it seems more and more guys come in wearing some type of clothing.

Doesn't matter.

One time at the VA hospital I was getting some x-rays. The changing room was across the corridor from the x-ray room. It was an older hospital built when no females were anticipated so no separate rooms . I returned from the x-ray room to find a female my age in the changing room getting undressed to go over for x-rays. We really paid little attention to each other. She continued getting undressed while I took off my gown to get dressed. We met later in the waiting area and spoke while waiting to be released. She mentioned the full length mirror they had where us older people were forced to see ourselves while changing. We had a chuckle about that. I think she may have been a medic in Vietnam.

By someone I know

Strangers seeing me nude is no big deal.

If a friend sees me nude that is perfectly fine with me. I have always thought it was fun to be nude with friends.

If it is someone I know that is not a friend that can be a little awkward at first, but it does not really bother me.

For sure by someone I know.

Neither bother me. But with strangers I might fantasise whereas with friends I don’t!

Doesn't bother me - nor most guys I've seen in the locker room. Occasionally there will be a guy with a towel around his waist who keeps it there while he tries to pull up his underwear - but those types are very rare.

The being nude part is fine. Locker rooms are just gross in general. My preference is to change and shower at home after my workout.

That's my preference as well - but when I was working, a trip to the gym over lunch or on my way to work I had to use the locker room.

Never bothered me & in jr high we used to check each other out,see who had the most hair& biggest dick& we sometimes had wet towel fights!

I think I can manage being naked fairly well, but still I surprised myself at the beginning of my life in Germany (about 11 years ago).

You probably know that here being naked at the spa for both men and women is totally normal, and I would add that indeed this is the way it should be. I started my membership in a gym where there was also the use of saunas included, and I used it pretty regularly. But when I learned that my landlady was also a member of the same gym, I thought that I did not want to be seen naked by her… what a silly thought, I realise now, but at the time I really felt that way!

I guess that 11 years later I have lost also that last level of inhibition. It was time!

I grew up in the house with all men, and everyone played sports, so I never thought much about nudity. My dad always pissed with the bathroom door open, and so did me and my brothers. Never thought much of getting naked in the locker room.

I can't say it's embarrassing, but it is kind of weird to be naked in front of someone you vaguely know in the locker room at the gym.

I guess even today, I feel a bit uncomfortable if someone I know is seeing me naked (to avoid that I always attend to gyms or Public Pools away from my neighbourhood)

I had this experience some years ago:

My Mom and Aunt (her Sister) worked as Nurses at a Public Hospital. On one occasion the Staff of the area they were working in (Men and Women) organized a short Trip to spend the day in a Country Club located 190 miles away from the City into the country side. Everyone along with their families.

My Mom didn't want to attend but my Aunt did with her daughter (my cousin) and her Husband

They invited me to join them and it was an invitation I wouldn't pass (besides I knew almost all of the Co Workers well since I was a kid, when my Mom started working there and they knew me as well) so I was sure we'd spend a great day together.

When we arrived there we realized it was a really nice place. Among the Country Club facilities there were Soccer Field, Tennis, Volleyball Courts etc,etc, there was that big semi Olympic Pool. what we enjoyed the most. It was perfect! We spent almost the whole day in there (although the spring weather was only mildly hot)

In order to make it to that Country Club, the Staff had rented a Bus with its Driver (a Guy in his 50s) to take us to and back from the country club, so he was also able to enjoy the Club's installations.

By 6 pm he let the people know we should be leaving at 7 pm, so every one go to change clothes and prepared their bags and belongings to get in the Bus. I remained in the pool about another half an hour, but then I Rushed to the Men's Locker Rooms to Shower and wash off the Chlorine from my body and swimming trunks.

When I got inside I was the only one in there.

Everyone else had already changed and left. I carried my Bag, put my dry clothes on the Bench, stripped naked taking my bathing suit off, and started to shower. The afternoon had got pretty windy, I started chilling a bit with my wet body when I exited the Pool, and to top it all, the shower water was extremely cold. I was the only one there, so I decided to wait under the shower stream for the water to heat or at least get a bit warm (it never happened)

The pretty small locker room area had a row on 6 single shower heads with dividers but no Curtains by a wall, and the Benches in the opposite wall. So there I was, alone, totally naked, kinda shivering while soaping up my Body and waiting for the Hot Relaxing water to come and warm me up.

I lost the sense of time, I didn't realize it was getting late and by then all of the people were already on the Bus except for myself.

My Aunt kinda worried wondering why I was taking too long. So one of her (and my Mom's) Co Worker offered himself to go to the Locker Room to check for me.

His Name was Albert and he was a man (probably in his late 50s then) that I knew since I was about 8 or 9 years old (I was 23 when this incident happened) Apparently once in the locker he called my name but I didn't hear him because of the water running, so he peeked in the Shower Area and approached next to me to tell me I had to finish and hurry because I was the only person left from all on the Bus.

He caught me by surprise when he spoke to me, I was distracted cursing because the water never got warm.

Of couse although he knew me since I was a kid, he had never ever seen me Naked before, prior to this day. . He looked me from head to toes with really wide open eyes. He probably got surprised too by the size of my Goodies. Because of the cold water, my Willy had shrunk to about 2,5 inches (I'm uncut) and barely peeked from my full bush. On the other hand, my Hairy B*lls got tight as a Nutshell, so I wasn't in the best shape to be seen displayed naked.before him.

Fortunately he remained there for only about 2 minutes and left, telling me again to hurry up

It was the one and only time he got to see me naked (so he never knew I could have had a better "state" or a more appropriate size, if the water would have been Warm enough)

By that moment I didn't feel that embarrassed but it certainly was an Awkward Situation, because it was a person that I had known for so long.

Over the years, my attitude to nakedness has changed from inhibited to much more relaxed. In my teens and 20s, I was very bothered at my penis size or my belly fat while showering in the school gym showers with guys I knew. They were much better looking than me, walking around with their cocks swinging about was very intimating to me.

In my 40s now, I'm more inclined to stand for much longer in the open showers to wash infront of strangers. I'm less bothered about my tummy fat, and erections in showers now. Lots more erections in showers these days. Nobody cares, probably no one notices mine.

However, I've never thought about whether I was intimidated at a young age because of the guys I knew or not. Am I more relaxed now because I'm older, or that they are strangers? It's hard to say.

Neither! Grew up showering naked with guys in PE class! Was the first experience seeing an uncircumcised cock! Other than that was no big deal!
