The Gym is a Freak Show (Read 790 times)

    Nemo's story reminded me of a guy I saw at Bay to Breakers. He was running with an orange shirt and no pants, junk flopping around as free as can be. As others have said...some things you can't un-see.

     

    This is not really about the gym, but I just have to say that naked jogging is very big where I live. Talk about not being able to un-see...

      Something I had never thought about - what do the barefoot runners do when weather forces them inside?

       

      Well, they will probably have to find a "barefoot friendly" gym - like the one I found while visiting in Franklin, N.C.   Unfortunately, I live in Florida.  So if it's too cold outside for bare feet, I wear the most minimal shoes I have.

       

      PS - based on the locker room descriptions, I now retract my earlier post ranting on TM users wearing street clothes, only jogging for 10 minutes or walking around feeling all the equipment - that's not weird at all in comparison.

        I think I'm going crazy.

         

        The basic rules I use in my home are the same ones I use at the Y. If there are other people there (either place) I don't walk around, sip coffee, hang out, and chat whist nekkid.

         

        If no one is around, well I may walk around with nothing but an elephant mask on. I may even pretend to be an elephant on the john.

         

        But, you'll never, ever, catch me with just the top half covered...carrying on like Robert is your father's brother.  It is just fecking strange, particularly for men--given that it is the lower half that society tells us to not waive for all to see.

         

        And, you can cut off my feet before trying to send me into a public stall barefoot. Just take'em, cuz i don't wannam back.

        +100....both on the bare feet in the stall and on walking around with a shirt on but your junk waving in the wind. Creepy.
