Nudity

...so now that I'm a regular at Globogym I've been noticing that some people are a LOT more comfortable with their own nudity than they should be. I've decided to write up some locker-room nudity etiquette rules for those who are nudity-dyslexic:

- It is OK to be completely naked if you are taking off your clothes to put on your towel. This rule also applies if you are taking off your towel to put on your clothes.
- It is NOT OK to shave at the sink naked.
- It is OK to walk in and out of the shower block and/or sauna naked.
- It is NOT OK to dry yourself in the middle of the lockerroom for longer than 20 seconds.
- It is NOT OK to undress when someone is bent over tying their shoelace next to you. It can get awkward when that someone lifts their head and your penis is next to their nose.
- It is NOT OK to have a really bad farmer's tan when you're naked. That just looks weird. You don't want to look like you have a t-shirt on when you're naked.
- It is NOT OK to trim your pubes at the gym. C'mon now! I'm walkin around barefoot and I gotta step on your pube offcuts? HELL NO!

Of course all of the "NOT OK" rules above are deemed null and void if you are hot.

I think the weirdest thing I've seen at the gym is some random guy walk from the shower room to their locker barefoot, and then change while standing on the bench. Hello you just walked to your locker and stepped in crap - how is standing on the bench going to make your feet any safer? Go figure.
