Gays - would you feel more coy getting undressed in front of someone of the same or opposite sex?

Question

I'm not gay bashing, it's just one of those strange questions that pops into my head!
Same question to bi and lesbiens :-)

OK, take the changing rooms at the swimming baths as an example - there's a sexy looking guy/girl (same sex as you) also getting changed and getting naked just across the room and in full line of sight to you, though they're not really paying you much attention.

Answer 1

It matters the situation, and it matters who the other party is. There are a few people that I will get naked in front of and it's not uncomfortable at all. But then there are those that I would not get naked in front of at all... unless the situation called for it *wink*.

With men, I guess it matters whether they know I'm gay or not, and accept it. If that is the case, then getting naked in front of them isn't an issue for me. Because they know that it's just a look-see, nothing else. So I guess my answer would be males. I feel more comfortable getting naked in front of the opposite sex. *I'm weird, I know.*

Answer 2

To be honest it depends on the situation. I'm not an exhibitionist or anything, but I'm not particularly bothered about getting undressed in front of anyone! However if there was a bit of sexual tension between me and someone then I might feel a bit more coy, so I guess the answer to the question is a someone of the same sex!

Answer 3

i spent an entire year in japan and they have something called the public baths,where everyone baths together - communal style. it remember having a hard time getting undress in front of all those girls (even though i know they are not looking but i just felt uncomfortable) i was shocked at their casualness in basking around the hot tubs while chatting with each other. i always go in, bath and come out lightning speed!
not too comfortable undressing around guys too, only because when one say the word lesbian, you get a lot of attention (in a unwanted sort of way) but if those guys understand that its a look but do NOT touch thing then yes, I'd feel more comfortable undressing in front of them as compared to girls. (just to make sure, I'm not talking about undressing in a sexual kinda way)

so my answer would be I'd feel more comfortable undressing in front of guys than girls..... weird, i know....

regards.

Answer 4

Well I cannot speak on behalf of my people, but in my experience, when I go to the swimming baths I am more concerned as to whether I am going to get the locker open again when I return (if my 50p is going to stick again) and when I am getting changed to go out of the baths I am wondering what to cook for my tea or a thousand other things, but its interesting what your thinking about when getting undressed.

Answer 5

i would feel equally coy either way if it was in a public place like a swimming pool, i dont like being naked in front of strangers, or anybody but a gf for that matter, lol. if it was in front of a gf, i wouldnt feel coy in the slightest. infact ad probably do a reverse striptease for her, with a belly dance thrown in for good measure.

Answer 6

at work the pervy men leer at my tight tops and when buttons have popped open they have a good old look.i personally am very private about my body and dont even get changed in front of my sister.but obviously i do in front of girlfriends

Answer 7

hmm... i feel totally uncomfortable undressing or being seen naked (shirtless is fine) by anyone. i even feel the same thing with my relatives. i think i'm just being insecure.

Answer 8

ive never felt uncomfortable about undressing around men, but then im not a shy boy!

Answer 9

Kind've depends on the situation, doesn't it? Being strip-searched; going to the doctors or getting down and nekkid with your S.O.

Care to pick one (and then I'll answer)?

Answer 10

I try not to find myself in a situation where I have to undress in front of ANYONE. I have not so far. :)
