Women in gym changing room

I’ll never get over the woman who bent over infront of me as I was sitting in a changing room and dried down her legs with a towel, butt naked so I had a clear, close-up of her vulva and arsehole. Absolutely scarred for life.

What a weird thread. Only the slim ladies should be exposing their naked body and the older / larger ladies should scurry around under a towel? Sounds like a David Lloyd. I would suggest it’s the older ladies who can probably afford it. I’d be pissed off if someone moved my stuff ( assuming I hadn’t spread it all over the bench ) but I wouldn’t care about the nudity.

You lost me when you felt the need to comment on her size; that’s really low.

I would expect a gym to be somewhere I might encounter other people’s bodies, sweat, naked skin etc so that wouldn’t bother me. It was rude of her to move your stuff.

Although the younger women probably have less to be self-conscious about, on the whole, they're also unlikely to have been through as many smear tests, breast exams/scans, prenatal checks, potentially childbirth and all the associated joys of total strangers poking around in your nethers (plus breastfeeding) that push you slowly towards a point of 'if you don't like it, don't look'...

That said, the assortment of grim behaviours people display in gyms never ceases to amaze me. Makes you wish you could sluice some of the disgusting little weasels down with dettol on their way in.

Extremely cheeky of her to move your stuff.

It's a long time ago since I was a gym member but at one point a long time ago I used to be a member of a gym in a local hotel. And women prancing around naked in the changing room was common. It didnt bother me until they sat down with their bare bums on the benches and that totally disgusted me.

I always thought it was interesting but the general trend there was the much younger women,who I would have expected to be less shy about their bodies, were the ones who made great effort not to expose too much flesh whereas the older women didn't mind walking around naked. It's possibly different now but that's certainly my experience at that particular gym.

I just accepted long ago that if I’m at the gym I’m going to be touching and sitting on equipment touched and sat on by hundreds of potentially questionable strangers who are all at the gym specifically to do their very best to become sweaty and a bit gross; and that the changing room benches have probably had buttocks, worn underwear, sweaty socks, and dirty outdoor shoes on them.

She was rude to move your stuff (presuming you weren’t the one being rude by having spread out all your belongings on the only bench so there was no space for anyone else) but I’m pretty meh about naked women’s bodies in the changing room. We’ve all got one.

Is the AI bot obsessed with gyms this week? Is it meant to motivate us to go or keep us away.

Men should use male changing rooms / private cubicles unless a parent at a the swim session which is age locked and the centre advises otherwise.

Praying in the changing room is fine but don't get in the way of exits.

Moving other people's stuff is rude, being naked in a seat proba8isnt dirtier than sitting on it after public transport or peoe putting their bags etc in it. Just don't look.

The dressing room couldn't be so small you couldn't move away from her. You aren't obliged to but don't moan you had to stare at her naked body

I cannot comprehend why gyms don't have cubicles as standard. To pay for the privilege of being naked in front of randoms and have to be subjected to other nakedness seems utter madness to me.

My advice is don't go to Scandinavia.
