Good for you for sticking to what's more natural. More peeps need to not give in to an awkward feeling just for doing what's natural, for gosh sakes showering is NOT something that should be done clothed! I applauded you for sticking to the way it should be, if more do like you some of these younger guys you refer to will also start to feel more comfortable again slipping their shorts or underwear off and showering right too. Then the peer pressure will begin to go back to anyone being clothed in a shower feeling a bit awkward and NOT the other way around.
I do the same. I won't give in to this wierd hysteria. If you shower naked at home, why wouldn't you shower naked at a gym? To me, those who shower in their clothes are the wierdos, not the ones who shower naked. I find that once the younger guys see me doing it, they lighten up and start to shower normally as well.

It's only my opinion, but wearing a towel to or from the shower is a little disgusting. What kind of idiot showers, then dries off with a sweat-soaked towel? Why shower at all? What kind of idiot dries off after a shower, then wraps up in the same wet towel? Very nasty.
If you're going to look, then look. I'm not in the gym for a beauty pageant.
Some of the Mexicans are especially bold and, like myself, usually go to the showers naked and even share showers when it's crowded! Unbelievable! I've been to Bally's with a good Mexican friend, and he says they share because they don't want to be late for work and don't want to go smelling badly. Very cool.
The only guys, besides myself, who change clothes and shower at our gym are hispanics, Asians, Africans and maybe whites (I'm guessing) over 35. There are also some older blacks, perhaps American blacks, who don't cover up much. Typically it's young American whites who change under their towels and wrap up to go shower, no matter how fit or muscular they are. Very prudish and I never see anyone else doing this.

What??? You couldn't stop your mouse from running over to the link and clicking on it?!
The points they are making are valid so they will continue to be discussed repeatedly.
Shhh! He has issues...and so do you judging from your avatar. I hope the dentist gave you a healthful dose of Vicodin. Enjoy!
But everyone is saying the same thing over and over again. I could sum up everything in this thread in one sentence. There's no reason to keep talking about it.
...and yet you do...and yet you spend all your time and very few posts in those related threads in an attempt to justify your psychosis with nudity (aside from lurking that is).
Nobody is forcing you to frequent a gym or using the lockerroom anywhere. Get a life!
Well said. We have elections in the U.S. every year for things too, and yes the same issues are often discussed no matter what the office. It does NOT mean we should STOP discussing them. If someone is not interested than there are hundreds of other threads for them to go to instead of posting in a thread they have no interest in. Also I would rather we keep posting in a thread that already exists sometimes, than the alternative which often happens too, of new people re-creating a thread on the same topic that already exists, but they didn't know it.
Again, if you don't have in interest in a thread then feel free to ignore it, but knocking people for posting in a thread they want to that already exists is just silly. Let people post wherever and whenever they want about what they want, and if you are not interested then just ignore it and go to any of hundreds of other threads. I think bringing up threads that already exist is a service to continue a discussion rather than always creating another new thread on the same topic sometimes.
And this particular discussion some think is very important to correcting a current trend that is out of step with male behavior though-out most of our history and our truer healthier normal natural ways. I think some of you posting here in this thread are doing a real positive service to your fellow man but continuing to discuss it; as is evidenced in the video Linked BELOW -This is the way it should be and we should promote this as often as we can:

Exactly why I suggested in the past (as have others) that LPSG should mostly be a Wiki since the information really doesn't change much, but needs updating and addition from time to time. A message board is not well suited to this task.
Is this site even actively managed any more? I saw a "validated photo" thread that was last active over 1 year ago. The last post in that thread made it sound like the board owner had abandoned the site. Just asking, because if he's still around maybe he could be persuaded to add a wiki to the site. That would placate the irritable and provide a useful archive for the never-ending stream of newbies.
Yes, I post in these threads in hopes that there won't be five billion of them cluttering up this forum.
Congrats. You're incredibly smart.

yup; memories from high school locker room; school was small, town was small, not a big budget for locker rooms back then...

Exactly. It's a locker room... nudity should be expected and if it bothers you that much, don't try to check out guys. It irks me so much that this bothers people when you aren't forced to get naked if you don't want, or look at others. Personally, I see no point to wearing clothes in a shower or covering up in fear.
Don't worry so much, in fact, be proud of your uncut cock. Since the first time I had sex with a guy with an uncut cock, I wish mine were uncut!
