this is based of what I read in the locker room thread. Is everyone that uncomfortable with being naked. I was scared at first but it's normal to me to be nude with other boys my age. Even when not at school, if in changing room or at friends bathing I can change in front of them.

That's totally individual. Some may be uncomfortable with it, while others hardly even think about it.Keyboard not found. Press F1 for help.

This definitely depends on how you feel about nudity, how you were raised, and the culture surrounding you.
But if you start showering in a locker room before you're in puberty, you'll probably take it better compared to being forced to start in 8th grade, when you might be super insecure about... everything.19, Twin. -

I have to agree with Robrob12,
I learned swimming at a very young age. As a result by the time changing and showering naked in school was required it was second nature. I think most boys get used to it quickly. -
Agreed that you get used to it quickly and the bottom line is that most of us are nervous or apprehensive about it at first. Just go in and go about your business of washing up and it won't be a problem. I'm gay and would think that I'd be aroused in there, but that's not the case at all.

Even though me and my friends were comfortable nude together, changing clothes and stuff, my first school shower was nerve wracking first couple of times because I started puberty late. But I quickly got comfortable

Getting naked just seems a completely different scenario than anyone I know has ever experienced

50-100 years ago nudity was very common for boys even during puberty swimming at lakes and rivers.
It wasn't that sexual before the 60ies. Today we claim sexual freedom but are sexualising nudity and going for more and more privacy.
I don't get it why we can just accept that we are all the same and look the same when we are nude. -

They also didn’t let black people vote back then, I think we don’t need to accept the old ways as the best ways -

I know some school have things like that, but mostly you either have to get over it or never change your underwear. Neither is an option if you want to, or have to, swim.19, Twin. -

Just because you live in a rich country and it appears to a right to you, do not talk about many countries in South America and Africa where the would love to have gangstyle showers.
To me it's more a cultural thing, that we loose contact to our real self.
We like to post on social media and look greater than we are. Because some people keep influencing us on how we should look like.
And this is one of the issues why we are ashamed in the lockerroom, because other people look better, are more ripped, have a bigger...
I see it more as a challenge we have to face ourdays to be real again without two pictures taken.
Besides that, if we think in sustainibility terms, easy to clean showers are easier to built too and we do not waste time, money, energy to build and maintain small cubicles. -
I don't think I would've ever been comfortable with it as a teenager. It was never required of anyone at any school I attended (at least not in P.E.; presumably it was different for sports teams). As far as I'm concerned, school is awkward enough without mandatory nudity.

No one should have to get naked around anyone if they don’t want to
don’t blame cultural differences on people not expecting the right to privacy with their own body
