I was wondering if one of the younger guys can explain why younger guys seal the curtain shut to shower, but after they are done showering, they come out of the stall to towel off completely naked 2 feet away from you? Don't get me wrong, I'm glad that the modesty drops when they are towelling off, but really, what is the difference between showering and towelling off around other guys? I don't get it. Thankfully, the towel dance seems to be losing favour among the young guys. I have seen very few guys doing it in the last couple of months.

It is a technique: if you shower with the curtain shut, than u can probably touch your dick a bit, so that it gets bigger than at its natural state, and also with the hot water on, you get bigger and thicker. As a consequence, you walk out with a bigger cock than you would have before and without doing so...i used to do it when younger. Now i just drop my underwear, shower in the common one, walk naked til my bag, slowly dry, and then get dressed.
No problem....nothing to be ashamed of...
I have to say that young guys are becoming more and more paranoic and ashamed of their bodies and cocks and most of them hide themselves. This is quite sad....i guess porn doesn't help. If one thinks of a pornstar naked, he will mostly never feel big enough to show it. Real life isn't porn....fortunately!

I was in the shower at the gym the other day and a guy about 20 years old came in and showered right next to me in his shorts for the whole time I was in there. I left him in there showering and when I walked past the showers again he was naked, facing outwards without a care in the world. He then walked out of the showers completely naked without a towel and dried off right next to me again showing everything off not shy atall. I think he just thought fuck it, other lads shower naked so I'm going to too.

sorry, that's a little creepy

To op...... There's your answer..... Same reason women have separate restrooms.
Sleazy fucks like that.

In all honesty I think its part homophobia part porno generation self conscienceness and honestly young guys as a general rule are nasty fuckers
.

I've avoided showering at the gym since I was 16 quite honestly cause public showers restrooms ant etc are disgusting.

I think it's very telling that the phrase "shower nude" is used so often here. It implies that nudity is only one subset of showering, which in turns says a lot about how uncomfortable guys are being naked in group showers. In school in the 70's, we all showered NUDE; there was no other way to shower. The idea of showering with anything on was and is luDICKrous. I feel sorry for today's younger guys who seem SOOO uncomfortable being nude in a locker room. It's especially puzzling considering how much sexuality is strewn all over the media.

My first experience with group showers was in grade 7 phys ed, when I was 12 years old. Puberty had hit me like a ton of bricks when I was 11, and I was the only guy in the room who had started the changes. I was certainly a curiosity, but our phys ed teacher hammered it into our thick skulls that after physical exercise, we all stunk to high heaven and needed both a shower and deodorant. Thus it was presented to us as an issue of hygiene. He stayed in the shower with us, not because he was a perv, but because he could (loudly, so that all could hear he was applying the rule fairly) tell the reluctant boys that they weren't leaving till they showered. It was a big deal for the first two classes, then we smartened up. The teacher would also not allow any teasing or comments about any of the naked boys in his presence there in the change room and showers. One guy got a hardon, and the teacher's only reaction was to say (again, loud enough for all to hear) "Nice hardon Matt ... good to see you're normal". After that any and all hardons were a non-embarassing issue, and while noted, no comments or teasing resulted. One kid tried to be cool by making fun of my pubic hair, and was quickly corrected by the teacher, who called him a stupid ass, the same thing was going to happen to everyone in the room, in their own sweet time. We thus learned that the only thing worse being the first to go through puberty was to be the last to go through puberty, but at the end of the day, we all got there regardless.

This was kind of my experience with showering with my peers in my adolescence as well. As a grown man, it's more like a brotherhood expereince. Not to sound too much like a hippe, but, it's not sexual at all On the outside, it's just about hygeine. But on the inside, it's about letting down your barriers about your hidden curiosities. If you wanna look....then look. If you're with your buddies, we all get to see each other and that's it. To notice that we are all a little different, but at the same time, we are all the same. You know? It's a very important part of growing as a man.

I was always afraid to use public showers when I was a teenager and early 20's. But it was nothing to do with people looking or being ashamed of my body, it was control. I was always afraid Id get a hard on! I used pretty much be always hard and like most guys that age, at the most inappropriate times Id be there trying to control an erection. Now Im late 20's I don't care, Ill whip it out wherever and if its hard, all the better :)


I think that is a big part of it honestly. I was the same way until I was about 24.

I used to shower with my cousin back then when we were younger but now that we are grown up, we don't do that anymore. Showered in the public once that was it.

In the society I grew up, everyone is more conservative and try not to be nude in front of anyone. I personally think that it's normal because we after all have the same thing attached to our groin, just of different sizes but I guess I'd be considered weird if I shower nude in the public while everyone else shower with their shorts or trunk.

Then again, I am afraid that I might get a hard on because for some reasons, I still cannot control my erections. I still get sudden/random erections at times even at my age (20 going 21). Weird.

Nothing weird about hard ons, IMHO, but sad about only showering in public once in your whole life & trying not to be nude in front of anyone of your same gender.
