I was at a rehab centre for three weeks in Germany two years ago -- fabulous, modern place! But they were renovating the changing room area and had closed the men's room, and there was only one changing room for everyone.
There was a natural sorting-out. All the men changed at the entrance to the changing room, so you did have to see a few penises walking through. And all the women went deeper into the changing room, behind the rows of lockers, where they had privacy. After two weeks they reopened the men's changing room.
Decent men don't try to invade women's area. Is there a similar set-up at your pool, where you could somehow agree silently to separate?

Today I went swimming; it's a private pool in a hotel leisure centre of which I'm a member. They opened the pool again two weeks ago, but you have to book a slot and you only get an hour. The changing room is usually empty if you don't go on the dot of the hour.
Anyway, today when I went one of the staff members, a young man who usually leads my aqua-fit classes, was there hosing down the shower part of the changing room. He was the only person there. And normally I have my swimsuit on under my clothes, but today I didn't.
At first I felt a bit anxious, but in the end I changed right there with him in the background, hosing down the showers. I didn't check, but I'm sure he wasn't looking. I was wearing a dress and I pulled the suit on under the dress and then took it off, removed my bra, and pulled on the rest of the swimsuit. I had my back to him the whole time.
I could have gone into one of the toilets to change but I would have felt silly. He's a really lovely man and I know for sure he didn't peek, and why would he want to anyway? I'm going on 69!
