College showers?

Man or woman, after basic training you will not have any qualms about showering in a group setting with the same gender.

We would actually be suprised when we got somewhere that did have private or semi-private shower stalls. We’d go, “Oww, fancy.”

Even the gym on base had communal shower faucets (a couple giant pillars with the 5-6 shower nozzles sticking out the top in a spoke-like fashion, so you eventually need to face the one’s you’re showering with). Generally, showering with the same gender is one of the last things/worries on yor mind in the military though - even with someone who you know to be gay, 'cause if they’re an upstanding person, then you know they wouldn’t do anything stupid.

I think once you hit typical college age, nudity with the same gender is a little overrated - it’s just that those that are supposed to be college age don’t typically act like it.
