In fact, I am not sure if I am concerned about how I appear to anyone.[/QUOTE]
If you were an 80’s movie character you’d be John Bender. Of course you care. You put on pants before going outside, right?
I care in so far as there are consequences that affect me and others. Due to my line of work, I cultivate some appearances while having the luxury of letting others atrophy. Because I’m in the northwest I get to wear thermal underwear, jeans, overalls, denim, leather jackets and plaid shirts. I think that’s all I own now. Well, the overalls are due to losing so much damn weight that I have to dress like a toddler but at least I take some consideration into how others view me.
I also don’t chew tobacco around company but I like to make a show of spitting when the wrong stranger makes eye contact. Just for spite and to let them know I’m capable of mean and stupid country shit.
It’s not manipulative, it’s just that we conform to certain social standards to insure that everything goes smoothly.

You said pants. Skivvies are a must, but I admit to occasional late-night backyard bladder relief. Nature is, well, nature.
(edit) that’s not fully true. Have also had skinny-dipping sessions in the pools, which may or may not have also involved coitus. A fully enjoyable and worthy experience.

At least put on a bathrobe. You’ll traumatize the neighbors. I like backyard wizzing as much as the next guy. It feels awesome when you’re super high, no matter what temperature it is outside.

Only if I am cold, or to prevent sunburn, etc or there would be a legal consequence not to, or some other material consequence.
I’m that guy in the locker room that walks around buck naked and air drys.

The old guy at the YMCA swimming pool changing room who sits around buck naked and does the crossword. I know of that guy.

It’s funny you mention the crossword.
Because I do in fact do that sometimes while I air dry in locker rooms between striking up conversations.

Eww. I’ve seen that guy. I know where his locker is, and make sure that mine is on the other side of the room. There’s only 3 showers, though, so timing is crucial.

Wouldn’t do you any good.
There is nothing more amusing than making people uncomfortable
by striking up conversations while you are buck ass naked in the locker room,
or while they are trying to take a piss in the urinal
or when they are in a stall trying to take a shit.

Note to self: add “people that have cellphone conversations on the shitter,” to pet peeves list.
(edit) to qualify:
If you are in a solo room, and want to talk up a storm while dropping deuce, fucking A, go for it. But, if you’re in the stall next to me, and I’m loggin’, the last thing I want is you puffing out your chest to a buddy about how you just nailed a monster buy on FUXIT stock. It interferes with my Solitaire gaming.
And, that is in the top 3 reasons that I don’t drink Bud Light. Dude doesn’t deserve an homage, he deserves a gag and dropping his phone in the toilet.

I grew up going to the YMCA with my dad. everybody walked around naked in the locker rooms and the showers together grown men and boys.
Same after judo training. Used to have to weigh in nude at the US Open, crammed into the locker room at the USOTC.

Raised in a strict Southern Baptist household. I think seeing a grown man naked means I’d be gay for life. If they don’t have their clothes on you keep your eyes straight ahead and acknowledge no one and especially nothing below the waist. If bump into anyone or allow your eyes to focus on a man’s genitals, that’s it. You’ll never have children and you’ll probably be wearing a dress before you turn 18.
If I actually got in a line naked my grandpa’d assume I was queer for sure or worse, about to join the Navy. (that’s just a little joke. All his brothers were Navy. Most of their sons were Navy or Marines. He brought the recruiters around, registered me for selective service, registered me as a Republican without asking and did everything he could to get me to join the military. Going to college was for girls.)
Edit: He was retired Army and wanted to keep the tradition going. Army preferred, Navy second. Marines third.

What a time the 60’s were eh BKR?
I lived next door to a small Seventh Adventist church, my gym set up looked out over their courtyard. Sometimes after workouts I’d just strip off right there so as to run to the laundry and throw my clothes in to wash and jump into the shower (coz efficient!). Once not realising they had started setting up for an event at 6am which was my normal workout time, they caught an eyeful.

Alright, I gave it several hours. Shocked that nobody has yet walked through that open door, so it’s my duty.

Yea… I hate when there is a room full of showers and its just me in there and some guy comes and picks the shower next to me to shower. I get straight up mad. If it happens more than once they get screamed at.

No, you should never do it. Because eventually you’re going to make that grunt that tells everyone around you that you’re pushing out a deuce or the accompanying sigh that says you just got over the hill and a great big mookie stink is evacuating your large intestine.
There’s really no way around it. You’re gonna make that sound one day when you’re on the phone with the bank, or your lawyer or your sister and they’re going to be fucking disgusted. Especially your sister because she always suspected you were fucking gross anyway and this only confirms why her kids are better off spending time with her in-laws than her own morbidly disgusting brother.
That’s why I don’t do it. My sisters think I’m a saint. My middle brother won’t talk to me because he says I make him feel like a bad person and my oldest brother, who is about 1 foot and a half taller than me, actually told me that he looks up to me.
And I’m a college drop-out wholesale schedule 1 drug dealer ex-used car salesmen.
Literally and metaphorically, the only thing that I do that the rest of you don’t do, is I never ever shit where the people I care about can hear it or smell it.
Except my wife and I think she only married me because she doesn’t like it when other people touch her things.
