Freedom's just another word for being naked

I joined Bally's recently. Up until July and for the 5 previous years I had been fairly regular in going into the basement 2 or 3 times a week, setting out a nice cushy thick workout mat and doing a routine with 110 pounds of dumbells that kept me reasonably toned and firm anywhere above the legs. In July I started a bathroom reno which required a complete gut and rebuild and the basement floor become a storage area for anything involved. In January I waited for and took advantage of Bally's best offer (I get reimbursed anyway) and now do my workouts there (I still do all of my running outside).

Now, I'm not particularly modest or shy, and maybe it's just some deep seated conditioning from days of yor, but I find it just bizarre the way a lot of men simply like to walk around a locker room completely buffers. I keep a towel wrap and a few guys wear swim trunks when transitioning too and fro the locker area and the shower. Nonetheless it seems that at least half of the guys I've seen just like to stand around and make sure everyone gets a darned good view of whatever it is they like showing off. Maybe it's because I cut phys ed in high school, or maybe because I didn't play league sports, I dunno. But I just can't see myself walking about, looking at myself in a mirror, chatting with other equal fabricless guys and being totally nonchalant about it.

I don't think they need to see my junk and I'm certainly not interested in seeing theirs.
