It's funny - the current generation is exposed to so much more about sex through the media but they are so modest - even prudish - about nudity. Come to think about it maybe that is why they are so prudish - because they are made 'aware' so young.

When my daughter's swim team would change at the YMCA there was much wriggling under towels and t shirts to change without exposing them selves. They were unanimously horrified by older women who who just strip down and change. Even more so by the odd one that would wonder around naked. There was one elderly lady (at least in her 80s) who would wonder round naked. There was an exercise machine in the changing room and the swim team girls were standing round it wondering how you use it. The naked elderly lady said she would show them and proceeded to sit on the machine - which involved straddling it - and give them a demonstration. Needless to say none of those girls ever attempted to use that machine!!

Actually neither did I. Changing quickly I can handle. Naked on exercise machines - not so much.
