Seniors, Are You Comfortable Being Naked in Front of Others?

I got myself into a hole and the only way I'm going to get out of it is to go into the hole.

I'm doing my best to live as long as I can to screw the government out of the pension I get.

What about medical staff--nurses, medical assistants and of course doctors?
People say that doctors and nurses pay no attention, as this is part of their routine job.

I do not believe that, totally. Remember they are men and women first and medical
people second.
Younger patients might interest them, probably not seniors. I have read anecdotes
on the internet about that, where medical staff ask younger ones to take off all their
clothes even when not necessary. No doubt they will not admit this.
 
I think it's an age thing...Many of us grew up being very modest. On the other hand my girls are more comfortable with nudity. Fortunately I did not pass on my hang ups :)
 
It depends on the circumstances ! I'd never go on a nudist beach with lots of other people but sunbathe topless on a small quiet beach, where most other sunbathers are ladies of varying ages, it's quite acceptable in my part of the world, in fact you're more conspicuous if you wear a top !

here is your part of the world?? I agree in general non-Americans are much more sensible about nudity than Americans...

ALL beaches and swimming pools should be "equal opportunity". If men go topless, so should the ladies!!!! :>)

My family doctor often has an intern working with him as I go in for my annual physical. It is sometimes a female. He always asks if I have a problem with her remaining in the exam room. As long as she doesn't laugh too hard, I could care less!!! I've had numerous surgeries for broken bones, etc. Have had colonoscopies. No place for modesty in the world of medicine!!! I just appreciate them being there to take care of whatever ails me at the time.

I have wondered how medical professionals handle the situation of "lookin' at 'em all day" and still find the "mystery" of one's own mate. If an ob/gyn male doctor is handling boobs and such all day, is it just like another day at work when he retires with his wife at night? Lady physicians? Every time a male patient drops his drawers, do they automatically compare him to their husbands?

I just came back from the gym, and I am always impressed with the confidence some women have being completely naked in front of others. I'm not the type, I was brought up to be very modest and covered up. If I changed in high school for gym class, I faced the locker and did everything quickly, always leaving some clothes on.

I was once at a hot springs with my husband, and there was a women-only mineral bath area where everyone was nude. We'll I pushed myself to be open-minded and go into the baths. My visit was very short, lol. It didn't matter that everyone else had no clothes on, that didn't make me feel any better. I could never go to a nude beach.

In some countries, it is very natural for families to go naked into saunas together and nobody thinks twice about it. How about you, are you shy and reserved when it comes to being without your clothes in front of others, or is it not an issue at all with you?

I'm totally uncomfortable with being naked in front of anyone. I can't even stand the thought of someone seeing me through the crack in the stalls in the restrooms. I don't like having cleavage on display either. I was raised that you kept your crap covered up & changed clothes in private. Some of the styles of clothes & the way people wear them now is disgusting to me.
 
When I was in school and did gym class I would dress and undress very quickly and have my front to the locker at all times as I was self-conscious.

At my age now I don't want anyone to see me without clothes.

On my birthday this year, one of my nieces gave a gift certificate to Wi Korean spa in L.A. I was forewarned we were getting nekkid although men and women had separate rooms. At first I felt uncomfortable running nekkid from room to room but since other women of all sizes and colors looked relaxed, I went with the flow. 🤭 🤐 It was so relaxing to be scrubbed and massaged literally from scalp to my soles. I take a bath twice daily but it felt like the Korean scrubbed off more molecules off me. After a while, being nekkid among strangers didn't bother me. It was one of the best and creative gift my niece came up with.

As much as I want to pay it forward to a gf, the spa is temporarily closed. When it re-opens, I'm definitely coming back. I'll go to the area where males and females mingle (with clothes), another chance to meet interesting people.

As a nurse, I can honestly say, it is simply anatomy to us. We become very clinical about these things and believe me we all look the same on a slab.
