I have to confess something here. I don't understand why people think they are perfectly justified walking around naked in the locker room. And just so we're clear, I'm talking about the locker room at the YMCA, and I'm talking about the older, not necessarily svelt-figured women who swim there so nobody need get excited about it. It's quite disconcerting to be standing at the mirror, drying my hair, and then suddenly get an eyeful of middle-aged nakedness. Now, I am by no means a prude, and hey, if someone were to happen to catch a glimpse of me unclothed in the locker room, no big deal. But is there any reason to flaunt it? I'm not even talking about people quickly changing into or out of a bathing suit, I'm talking about, for example, this one woman strolling around wearing nothing but the towel on her head while she a. gathered up her clothes, b. examined herself in the mirror, and c. chatted with other people. I feel like saying, "um... maybe it's a little hard to tell due to the multiple toilet stalls, grungy wet tiles and, oh I don't know, the complete strangers milling around, but just in case you didn't know, this is not your home bathroom!" But hey, if you're not exactly a super model and you're not exactly a spring chicken, and you're still comfortable enough with your body to parade around naked amongst the company of unknown others, well, who am I to pass judgement?  ¶ 5:14 PM
