I feel awkward seeing my friends naked

How do you feel about seeing your friends walk around in the nude? Is it assumptious of them to think you would be fine with it? Or am I the prude?
One of my friends is perfectly comfortable whipping everything out when we are away together (e.g when she is changing she will just stand there chatting to me totally naked). It makes me feel awkward and I don't know where to look.
She's a size 22 so everything is very "out there" I don't think her being smaller would make me feel differently but it's definitely a lot harder to try and ignore her gigantic boobs 🤣
Would you be fine with this? AIBU?

I don't have any friends like that.

I've plenty of friends who I've got changed in front of and vice versa, but I'd think they were weird if they stood and had a full on conversation with me whilst stark naked.

This is unusual behaviour from your friend and it’s pretty normal that you find it awkward.

I don’t think she is doing anything wrong exactly, in some ways I wish we were all so carefree about nakedness, but I think you should absolutely feel free to say you would prefer to talk to her through the door while she gets changed.

I have a friend like that I think I'd seen her boobs within a week of meeting her. Fifteen years later and she was helping me with my wedding dress and laughed it was the first time she's ever seen mine! It doesn't bother me, but she respects my choices too
