Grim gym changing room behaviour

Came out of pool this morning to get my stuff for my shower and a woman was cutting her toenails on the bench where people put their stuff. She had a towel down but still 🤮 Am I right that this is completely grim? She also had her arse stuck out right in front of the locker I was trying to get to and made no move whatsoever to let me through when it was clear I was trying to get to my locker.

The toenails, the nail filing, just wrong. Spreading out your clothes when others are there, inconsiderate. However, changing a tampon providing the used one is disposed of correctly should be treated as normal.

Changing a tampon is normal. Changing a tampon in front of other people is not remotely normal.

Just because periods are a normal bodily function, that doesn’t mean it’s OK to deal with them in a communal changing room, for much the same reason that it’s not OK to take a shit in a public loo with the door wide open. Keep your bodily waste to yourself.
