I can't imagine the vast numbers of you I must have been offending all these years with a variety of my locker room behaviors.

Me too Starfish.
I don't talk on my cell and I leave it on silent mode.
I am very careful about my dripping, wet surfaces, dirt etc.
I don't primp and preen at all so - not guilty of taking up sink/dryer space.
Don't spread out my stuff.
Shower with soap.
Yup, I'm pretty good on most of the rules except the nekkid one.
Now I don't prance around, I don't chat with my friends but I do stand completely nekkid for a period of time at the end of my shower while toweling off and when transitioning from towel around body to getting ready to get dressed. I prefer to stand nekkid for a short period of time to allow for some air drying prior to donning my clothes. While in any one of my various stages of dress/undress I may have a consversation with someone. If someone chooses to talk to me while I'm about to drop my towel to air dry and get dressed, I am not going to stop my routine. I will continue along, nekkid or not, while chatting.
Going through PT school and having to stand in front of 66 classmates while they evaluate your posture pretty much killed any locker room modesty I had.
No I don't stand around chatting about how fat I am or not.Living life like there's no tomorrow.

Man, I'm glad I can't afford to belong to a gym!

My gym membership is at the local University, I'm surrounded by hard-bodied 18-22 year old girls and a handful of faculty-aged folks like myself. Us 40+ folks are invisible to the younger ones so that's nice.
My rule...only use ONE locker - don't take up one locker for your coat/one for your clothes/and one for your bag. I don't enjoy having to share one with my SO for everything we have so you can spread out.

Don't use your cell phone while blocking one of two toilet stalls! Yes, we can hear you in there and we want you out!!!
It's a little secret you didn't know about us women. We're all closet Visigoths.

Just because you think your little darling is not old enough to go in the men's locker by himself, doesn't mean he's young enough to be in the women's locker room. If he's old enough to leer, he's out.

Me too. Originally Posted by Wahine

I mean she was not rail thin either but she was so mean to herself it made me want to cry right there. End of self-hijack.) Lots of university employee and, I assume, faculty. Women don't feel like they must hide their body, whatever its shape, at all cost, especially the older ones actually. I've also become less concerned with modesty since I've been closer to 30. Yes there is even some naked (or half-naked) conversation going on. So what?
But don't get me started on those who left the toilet seat all wet (presumably from pool water, but still...).

2+ on the male children staring. I was in the locker room one day and a woman had her @6 year old son in there. He was obviously VERY interested in all of the women. As she went out I overheard her say, "Let's go collect your dad and get going". Sheesh! If his dad was RIGHT THERE the kid needed to be with dad, not mom!
My other pet peeve is the people who leave all of their stuff all over the benches when they go work out. Our locker room has a zillion lockers and one bench. Shared space is at a premium. Just take 2 extra seconds and stuff it in a locker, OK?
I get really tired of inconsiderate people... sigh...
