| Re: gym showers
IMHO, people in this country are a little too uncomfortable about the human body. It comes from the early puritan days and has yet to leave us. I'm not saying we need to be parading around in public naked, but in a locker room what do you expect to see? We all have one, they are all more or less the same. Sure some are smaller, some are bigger. Some have foreskins, some do not. But otherwise, the equipment is the same.
To me, being worried about gay guys checking my stuff out is about the siliest thing I've heard of. First of all, a gay guy will check you out whether or not you have any clothes on. Secondly, so what? As long as no overt moves are made, what's the big deal? Thirdly, news bulletin: straight guys are checking you out too. Not because they're sexually stimulated but rather to wonder how theirs compares to yours.
Incidentally, I can't think of a better way to draw attention to yourself than to wear your underwear while using in the shower. Back when I was showering after gym class (the 80's) I can guarantee that people would've made fun of you if you did that.
People in this country need be a little more sensible in regard to the naked body. We do alot of things right over here, but this is one area that could stand a little improvement.
