Men's Locker Room

Urinal etiquette is such a tricky thing: eyes front (but not downward), no "excessive" or vigorous movement allowed...anything else? The men's locker-room is a pretty dull place compared to the women's. (Not that I would know anything about that.) Of course, we spend SO MUCH LESS TIME in the place than our lovely counterparts...how in the world one can stretch a 10 minute activity into 45 minutes is just beyond me. You must know high maintenance women. I'm really speedy quick getting in and outta there. (Unless I feel compelled to dry my hair.) 45 minutes?!

You must know high maintenance women. Counselor, I'm going to have to forego commenting on that one. I have no desire to follow the Paul Smith taper. Actually my wife is pretty speedy too...relative to the other swim team women. We often gather for bagels after Saturday morning practice. I have time to fit in a 30-minute gym workout after swimming, shower, change and STILL beat most of our female members to breakfast.

There's a urinal adjacent to the showers. We've got not only that, but also none of the stalls have doors. Not the best scenario, but you gotta do what you gotta do. Back in college our locker room literally had the toilets adjacent to some of the lockers. If you were sitting on the throne you were probably no more than about three feet from the nearest locker. Yes, the freshman got those lockers. :)

They're busy with the far more interesting women's locker room chat. I will admit to making an effort to be more girly lately. I have a tendency to wear gym attire 24/7 and I'm trying to reform. But I just can't use up 45 minutes of my day for primping!

I have a tendency to wear gym attire 24/7 and I'm trying to reform. My wife started a new job this year that doesn't require her to leave home. She basically wears workout attire or pajamas 24/7. I don't think she's trying to reform, either. She says she never plans to wear nylons ever again :)

I have worked from home for almost 6 years now. It is pretty remarkable the complete decay in my attire over the years. I have two seasons - jeans and shorts. I suspect it will get worse next year when my small one heads off to school and we don't have a nanny around. I probably still dress better than most college professors, oops, sorry Chris!

But I am against the pajamafication of America. Jeans rule.

Hey you! The guy standing in front of the sink, shaving in the nude. Put some clothes on, or wrap a towel around yourself for crying out loud! Jeez, nobody wants to see that...

And Victoria's Secret for the hubby. Heck. I think that's really why I swim. I can wear that junk. Until you hit your 40s ... and you get a hot flash. But it's much cheaper that way. More money on speedo suits, less on lingerie. Oops, wrong locker room, I guess.

Yeah...That guy's at my pool, too. Older gent...lost his butt somewhere:lmao: Hey you! The guy standing in front of the sink, shaving in the nude. Put some clothes on, or wrap a towel around yourself for crying out loud! Jeez, nobody wants to see that...
