We have a gym at work so I usually go in the late afternoon ( between 3-5) on what seems to be slower days. At most there have been a couple of people in the lockerroom when I am in there. I workout, strip naked at my locker, walk to the showers, towel in hand. Get clean, walk back to my locker, towel over my shoulder. At my locker I put on lotion, deodorant and cologne nude. The one or two people that "may" be in there with me don't seem bothered. It feels great!!!
Precisely how it should be done.

Does anyone know/have direct experience of whether male professional US Sports teams are equally as puritanical in the locker room. Surely not? There'd be so many players walking around post game in wet boxers
Based on my experience and what I've been told, US sports teams' locker rooms are one of the few places where men feel comfortable with being naked with each other. The other two are in the military and some fraternities.

I do feel like straight guys (especially the younger ones) these days are super nervous about being naked in front of gay guys. The gym I go to is about 80% straight and I see a definite difference in how they act in front of the gays guys (myself included) vs. their hetero counterparts. The gym isn't particularly cruisy and the gay guys are mostly very low key and there to work out... not hit on anyone. Most of us aren't the least bit interested in them, or trying to check them out, even if some of us do "read" gay. But, you'd think we were constantly ogling them, or worse, given the lengths they go to in order to conceal themselves, avoid eye contact, or suggest in any way they might be remotely gay-friendly. It's kind of annoying (it's 2023 after all). But it is what it is.
