I am not old or fat (ok,maybe a little) and just love to walk around naked. Wash dishes, vacuum, hell even go get the mail with a cup of coffee in hand naked. Isn’t freedom what this country’s all about?
Actually, I’m sitting here naked right now as I type this.
To muslehed:

AARGHH,nightsweats,shivers,nightmares!!! Surrounded by fat old men with swinging nutsacks.Can’t wake up.God,take me now!!!
Not everyone has a thing about nudity for starters. A lot of those guys grew up when you went to the swimming hole and swam naked on hot summer days. Nothing was thought of it because it was all just guys and everyone knew the other guy wasn’t a “homo”. I guess it’s not like that anymore.
Also I found that once you’ve been in the military and undergo the crap you have to there you lose a lot of your modesty. We got herded like cattle, either naked or in briefs, through physical exams by docs, to get immunized, to be fitted for uniforms, etc. Ater a while you figure out that it’s just not a big deal. I don’t think I saw a guy with a towel wrapped around his waist in the 8 years I was in the Navy. Out of all those guys I only knew of two that were gay.
When I was in junior high any guy that covered up in the locker room got made fun of and snapped with towels. I guess they figured you had tiny penis syndrome or something. That was back when they actually made you take a shower after PE. I guess they don’t do that any more. At my kid’s school they stored stuff in the showers. All the kids got sweaty, used some deodorant, and went on about their day stinking.
I think there are things a lot more disgusting than some fat old naked guy. They kind of remind me of seals or something but I don’t spend a lot of time staring at them. I’m just there to change clothes or shower.
Alright, KCinNYC’s comment
I go to a really swanky gym and most of the woman walk around naked but they have good bodies.
Just gave me a woody. Hmmmm…naked women in the locker room walking around with good bodies; can’t I please be in that locker room while that’s going on? And they all look at me like I’m their last meal they’re ever going to eat again…compose myself, compose myself…
I don’t think it has to do with fatness. When I went to a gym most of the old naked fucks weren’t fat. They are just weird. It’s one thing to walk from the shower naked, towel off and put your clothes on, but walking around, talking for half an hour, putting one leg up on a bench, walking around some more, shaving, drying your hair, talking some more, all naked is too much.
That’s too weird. I had one conversation when part of the time I was nude in the locker room but it was with a guy I knew from elsewhere too. He’s an ex-Marine and it didn’t bother him at all. We were getting dressed while we talked though. Some of us can multitask.
I think Steely hit this on the head. This isn’t a fat thing, its an old thing. These older guys just don’t give a shit. Plus, the military experience that most men of that generation had pretty much beats the modesty out of you. My dad (WWII veteran) once told me “Once you’re one of 100 men with disentary sharing 5 toilets without stalls, you don’t really care about nudity anymore.”
Once again (as in most often) I agree with Steeleyes.
Basic training and the “open” stool area is just the first step in ridding yourself of that modesty. Having to shit while trying not to make eye contact with the guy who is shitting directly opposite of you does wonders for that.
Nakedness in the locker room has never bothered me a bit, but now that I know how much it bothers some of the younger guys, I can’t wait till I’m older and it’s my turn to stand around chatting about the weather while I air dry my nuts. Yippee!
This thread has become downright disturbing . . . . But then again, I guess it always was.
(Oh and KC, since I live in NYC, I too would like to know where exactly this gym is located and how I might be allowed into the locker room). 
Steely’s right as usual. Anybody who’s grown up playing a lot of team sports or has gone through the military simply does’nt think twice about nudity. When I played college football all the towels were kept in the shower room. You really did’nt have much of a choice but to walk to the shower naked. If you wore shorts or your underwear, you would have been made fun of. Seeing 300lb. naked offensive lineman can be traumatizing intitially but you get used to it after awhile.
I look forward to the day when I’m a fat, hairy old dude walking around the change room with my saggy old goat nuts hangin low.
Steely, Jaym, tme
I got back from Iraq in June after going out there in Feb for Op Telic (the British Forces effort). We had to shit 4 abreast on home-made toilets which were just a large ply box over a hole with 4 holes cut in the top (affectionality known as thunder boxes because of all the explosive diaorrhea suffered). We had a cam net around the back of the structure to protect our modesty.
At first it was a bit of a shock but eventually everyone just got used to it. You’d find yourself having a conversation with officers who normally wouldn’t talk to you. It was a great leveller.
Showering was communal and you’d think nothing about walking around butt naked and letting the sun and heat dry you.
BUT I’m back in civvie street now and I just don’t do that sort of thing because it isn’t as acceptable to the majority of people. Call me a sheep!
Whine, whine, whine. I don’t know why so many people are worried about this topic. Does seeing a naked man really bother you THAT much? If it does here’s a suggestion - don’t go to the locker rooms.
The vast majority of “fat naked men” in the locker rooms are doing what people do in locker rooms… namely, changing, having a shower, using the sauna, etc. I too get naked in the locker rooms to take my shower after I lift. Am I to be villified too? Should everyone just start wearing bathing suits everywhere and become a pansy ass who is afraid to get naked to take a shower in public? Give me a break.
Or maybe some of you don’t care about seeing young buff guys naked, just “nasty old men.” Well, there’s a word for that folks :P.
Fact is, people should just ignore what others are doing in the locker room. Personally I dont give a crap who I see naked in the locker rooms - they are other guys, we all have the same stuff (more or less), who gives a crap? When you see that old man, just be happy YOUR balls aren’t shrivelled up yet, and move on with your life.
From my perspective getting weirded about because a guy in a locker room is naked, when that is the appropriate place to remove and reinstall clothing is odd. It comes off as a fear, like being afraid of spiders or something.
Yeah, they’re ugly, hairy, and have 8 eyes but damn, they aren’t that dangerous. Just be a man and flick 'em out the window or whop 'em with a shoe. Squealing and running just ain’t manly. Neither is fearing fat, hairy, slow, old guys that last saw their dick during the Nixon administration. You know, that might be it. They’re standing around naked just to get a reaction, once they get the reaction they know it’s still down there. They’re just too shy to say, “Hey, how am I hanging?”.
Magnus-“saggy old goat nuts” HA HA HA!!! That is some funny shit!
It’s kind of hard to ignore a big,pimply,fat,hairy ass bent over in your face while you are trying to put on your socks.
Sniper,
The problem isn’t people getting naked in the locker rooms. Hell, they are locker rooms. You are supposed to get naked in there. You are supposed to get naked, shower, dry and put your god damn clothes back on. Or at least wrap a towel around you.
The problem is naked socializing. It’s just wrong to be done at a normal gym. Maybe at some nude gyms it would be ok. I’d really enjoy seeing some chick doing straight legged deadlifts but naked. However, it is just damn wrong to start a conversation, shave, or countless other tasks nude.
Bedz -
I dont particularly socialize naked, but I still dont see the big deal… I mean, if Im gonna see the old guy naked in the shower room, I dont really care if he stays naked for some reason. I go in, do my business, and leave.
I’ll agree, standing around chatting for a long time in the nude is kind of odd. Sure, I may chat with my workout partner, but its WHILE getting dressed not instead of… so I see where you’re coming from. At the same time, while the old man behavior may be weird, I don’t see why it is so bothersome to people.
Just this week, I walk in to the locker room and two old men standing there naked talking with each other. I changed my clothes, then took a slam. I come out of the stall, they are still standing there talking naked. What the F*ck?
Maybe it was a long story?
Maybe it’s just me but stand around buck ass naked telling stories is weird.
