Confession: I Don't Change in the Locker Room

I grew up playing school sports and taking phys ed class, so I've been in my share of locker rooms. But now that I'm an adult, the only locker room I encounter is at the gym. And to be perfectly honest, I'm really—I mean REALLY—uncomfortable changing in the women's locker room. I'm beginning to wonder if I'm the odd woman out or if I'm normal after all.

When I was in high school, everyone would change in the locker room before gym, practices and games. But unlike my parents' generation, we weren't required to shower there afterwards, and I don't think a single girl ever used the locker room showers. Beyond that, we were mostly clothed most of the time. Although you wouldn't know it from seeing how Hollywood often depicts the "girls locker room," there were no thongs or bare chests. At my school, the girls would change as quickly as possible, usually not talking to each other much and facing away from one another. And when we'd have to put on sports bras, we were pros on being prudish: We'd put our sports bras on top of our underwire bras, and then unclasp and strategically pull the underwire bra out from underneath the sports bra—never exposing anything to anyone. I never thought any of this was weird or uncomfortable at the time. Perhaps I was more comfortable with my body then than I am today. But now that I have the choice about where to change, rare is the day that I change clothes in my gym locker room.

I don't know why I feel so weird about it. Maybe it's because this environment is strikingly different than the locker rooms of my youth. Here, women actually walk around, face each other, and even talk to each other in various states of undress. And they use the showers, too! And it's not just the thin ones or older ones or the fit ones. Women of all ages, shapes and sizes seem to be really comfortable being naked or half-naked in front of other women. Not me. I pretty much avoid it if at all possible, usually changing in the restroom at work before I head to the gym, or sometimes changing in the bathroom stall inside the locker room.

I don't know what I'm so afraid of—maybe silent judgment? We all know how women can be, how we size each other up and compare ourselves to others. Maybe I don't like it just because it's so different than what I grew up with. Or maybe it's a generational thing. I know that my mom and grandmother are a lot more comfortable about this stuff than my sister and I are.

But in reality, I'm actually jealous. I wish I could be as free and feel as comfortable about my own body as these women seem to feel about theirs.

How about you? Do you feel self-conscious in the locker room? Or do you think I'm making a big deal out of nothing?

LOL I change in the bathroom. The locker room is where you store your clothes, not where you change into them ;)

I use the locker room at the gym, but I don't do the "naked" thing. I'll come for my workout already dressed, and then afterwards, I'll take off only my shoes and socks, bring my regular clothes into the shower (in a waterproof bag) along with my shower things, and then I'll go into one of the two available shower stalls (the rest of the showers are open, and none of the women at the gym seem to have a problem with this, EXCEPT me). If there isn't a stall available, I'll wait for one to open up--I absolutely WILL NOT shower in public. Anyway, once a stall becomes free (or if it was already free), I'll go in, close the door and lock it, hang my regular clothes on the corner of the door (still in the bag), and then I'll shower, dry off, and change into my regular clothes (except socks and shoes) in the stall. Then, I'll head back out to the change room area to put on my socks, shoes, make-up, and jewellry......and if I see other women walking around naked, I'll avert my eyes. If one of them talks to me, then I'll reply, but I won't look at them until everything is covered.

I LOVE to be naked!!! To me it is such a free feeling. I change in locker rooms, we are all girls and it really does not matter to me what others think of my body (if they look).

i don't mind changing at the gym. I change into my gym clothes there and afterward i slip into a towel and head to the shower (they have curtains so it's not a big deal, but if they didn't i don't think i'd take a shower, that just weirds me out!) and then i change into my regular clothes.

when i first started going to the gym i would change in the bathroom stall because i felt slightly uncomfortable. But now i can change in the locker area with no problems. I try to be discreet and quick, and i get kind of irked if someone walks "in" on me, but whatev. I figure that i'm not really looking at anyone else, so others are probably not really looking at me!

For me, it was the same. But then I started doing kendo at my university (this martial art with sticks and helmet and all that stuff ^^). After training, you were so completly soadked with sweat, you had to shower, no matter what. In the beginning, I didnt feel comfortable too, but then I though (Hey, the other girls are showering - dont be such a sissy!). So today, I dont have a problem changing in locker rooms : )

I went to high school in the 60s. We were required to shower after every gym class and each of us had one towel issued daily. Even though I went to a small town high school, most of us bounced around the locker room uninhibited and oblivious to what others thought, but that was before cellulite, tummy fat and wrinkles set in. Today, I go home from the gym to shower. And I walk into the gym locker room to use the bathroom with eyes averted. What changed? Me, I guess.

When I was in Junior High if you stood in the right spot in hall you could see right into the girl's locker room, something the boys exploited immediately. Getting changed was furtive, rushed and no one EVER took a shower. Oh yea, and occasionally the boys would run into the girl's locker room. So I still have issues about locker rooms because of that. I take my kidlet swimming so we have to be semi-naked at some points. She, of course, is oblivious but it bothers me. I also have a bit of a problem with little boys in the locker room. There is a small change room if you need it and we have used it on occasion just because it is easier to keep a handle on the active kidlet.

Glad you posted this and I am happy with the comments as well. I don't feel as weird now.

The only gym locker rooms I've been in have private showers and stalls to change in. Someone might have been in danger of seeing someone in a towel, but seriously - we see more than that of each other at the pool or beach. And I never understood changing clothes without showering; what's the point? You're just putting your sweaty smelly body into new clothes. You still smell, I promise, lol. Take a shower, or just wear the gym clothes home!

Our high school was the same way. The way Hollywood portrays the locker rooms at school...where are those schools?
I don't like using the locker room either. I'm very self-conscious. Even when I was thin (and I will be that way again thanks to SP) I didn't like being nude in a locker room.

I tend to pick a deserted corner and rip off the old and slip into the gym clothes ASAP! I die a slow death when I hear someone coming and I haven't changed yet. Why is that? I'm in better shape than ever before, and yet, I don't want anyone seeing me scantily clothed or naked.....its frustrating.

And, yes, I wish I could be one of those women that walk around in their underwear with all their flaws exposed, but I won't even walk around in my undies, let alone stark naked.

Funny thing is, my son started going to the gym with me last year and he went into the men's locker room to change, and came back out in 2 mins without changing...I immediately said "what's wrong?" -- he said "there are naked men everywhere! I am not changing in there". So, now he uses the family locker room where he can be alone.

And -- he recently started middle school, and got the bright idea (like no one else ever thought of it) that on gym days, he would just wear his gym shorts, etc to school....well, the teacher put a stop to that the first day. Haa haa~ he wouldn't listen to me, but I knew if it came from the teacher, it would be law.

Thanks for the reminders of what much of our culture is like.
I'm so comfortable in my own skin, that I forget what others sometimes feel. At 135 or at 315, I feel like naked is normal. I am usually naked where other people feel the same way- natural hot springs, or outdoor hot tubs, or gatherings for those of similar feelings- & I love to look, to watch all ages, all styles, all body types, just being human. There is no, absolutely no, body type that I don't find beautiful when it is relaxed, clean, and happy.
I'm grateful to my upbringing for that.

I never felt this way in high school I was so critical of my body but so comfortable around other women with it. I've never felt that way around men and now as an adult I am always covered from head to toe (by choice :-)

I was so the same as you about changing in front of others. keep everything covered as much as possible, or better yet change in a stall or at home. Then I started taking water aerobics and had to get out of my wet swim suit before coming home. I finally decided it was silly to try to hide so I just take care of business and go. I doubt that I will ever be one to socialize or feel comfortable carrying on conversations naked but I just change. That is in my regular gym but if I visit a pool or gym that is unfamiliar I still tend to hide. I doubt that I'll ever be as free about my naked body as some women are.After leaving the pool several women will sit naked in the hot tub - no way for me. I really kinda got freaked out one day when one of the other women had a breast restructure done after cancer and asked me (a total stranger) if I wanted to feel it 'cause it felt so natural. That was way beyond my comfort zone. But I guess we all have different comfort zones and that's okay.

I grew up going to a performing arts school so most of the girls that I took dance with were small, so I didn't like changing in front of them. As I got older and started going to the gym more often I became somewhat comfortable with my body so I don't mind showering and changing at the gym. I usually find my spot and am faithful to that particular place everytime I go. I find that there are people who kind of look at me strange because I am not trying to hide, I don't walk around naked, but as I lotion and get dressed the towel has to go. I think they are looking more so at my small hernia repair & gall bladder surgery scars out of curiousity than they are my fat. Whatever the case may be do what makes you comfortable.

I'm from the "old school" where modesty was everything. And being taught by my mother that being a girl was equal to being dirty, I would never uncover. When we took gym, we were made to take showers and the teacher would watch and if we didn't, she knew and it affected our grade! When I joined a gym across from where I worked I wouldn't shower there. I remember one strange lady walking around naked and even brushing her teeth while naked and it turned me off so bad, I just used the locker room to lock up my stuff while I exercised! If I do change in a locker room now, it's behind a curtain! I'm not comfortable with my body--never was, but hope someday I will be.

I am the complete opposite. I have never in my life been thin or small. I reached 6 ft when I was 12 and I've always been largely built. I played basketball all through school (elem thru high school). I was always the biggest girl nearly every where I was. Anyways...I never cared about the skinny girls looking at me and critisizing my body. I always just thought...if they don't like it they don't have to look at it! They can just look the other direction! It's not like I was skipping around in my bra and panties asking to be stared at lol....but I'm sure there were looks and words about it. But whatever I never cared. Even today at the gym I still don't. I just figure all the ladies there are there for the same reason I am...to work on shaping up their bodies too!

When I started Jr High which was the first place I'd had to do PE that involved changing clothes and taking showers, I talked my mom into sending a note saying I should use the shower stalls that were supposed to be for girls having their period. But when PE actually started it was so inconvenient to use the stalls that I just got used to it. The PE teacher actually asked me why I wasn't using the stalls and I had to admit that I thought I was going to be too body shy to shower in front of others.

I'm 23 and we did things how you did in the locker rooms. Everyone like hid in the bathrooms or something there was nothing like the movies or anything. I wouldn't be naked or even in my underwear there. Just would be weird and uncomfortable.

I would feel more comfortable but there seems to be an abundance of young children and preteens in our locker room. I teach locally and don't feel comfortable changing in public view. My husband has shared the same experiences in the mens locker room. Having said alll this though...I believe it is a cultural thing and I am jealous of those who are "comfortable in their skin".

You should join the military! We had open showers, maybe 6 showers in an open bay. You learn really quickly not to look, or look without seeing!

Of course that was 30 years, and 150 pounds ago! I workout at home so I don't use a gym

when i gym'd i was a changer in the bathroom stall all the way on the rare days i wasn't coming from, and going straight back, home where i prefer to do all my changing. a few times i took a shower at the gym (brave!) and once had someone walk in on me. she screamed, i screamed, i wasn't sure if it was shock on her part of if she was THAT scared of what she saw :P now i just work out at home and in the hood and that suits me much better!

I don't have a problem changing in the locker room. I used to do it in school and didn't have a problem there either. It's much easier to shower at the gym then it is to workout, drive home all sweaty and shower there. You'd be surprised that most people are thinking the same way you are and are uncomfortable.

When I first started working out, I was uncomfortable since I was really big and I changed in the stalls once and decided that it was too much work to grab all my junk, take it to the stalls. Plus I don't like changing in the stalls because most often, they are in the same room as the showers are (at least at my gym) so while you're getting dressed, it's at a much higher temperature and there's much more mositure in the air and it just leaves you feeling sticky as compared to when I change next to my locker which is in a different place than the stalls and showers.

Changing in the locker room has never been that big of a deal to me.

As a kid, I reluctantly changed in the locker room in much the same way you describe. If I have a choice, I get into my gym clothes at home (or I used to do it alone work before going to the gym).

However, I've showered at the gym, and gotten changed there. I don't see women talking it up while naked. Most people change the same way we did in gym class. Eyes are averted and clothing quickly pulled on.

When I weighed 350 pounds I changed at the gym, and I still do. People probably can only see my back most of the time (including all of the rolls of fat). But I've also learned by accidentally seeing other women in various states of undress that ALL women are different. And their body shapes are not the ones that we normally see depicted on TV or in magazines. If anything, changing in the locker room has made me MORE comfortable with my own body. Women that I think look "ideal" when clothed, or are very skinny, still have their own problem areas. I think that it's made me look at my own progress (and think about my future body appearance) MORE REALISTICALLY.

I change in the toilet cubicles if there's other people in the locker room. I'm just not comfortable enough with my body yet to let other people see :/

It's not unnormal, a lot of people do it. Hell, it's comforted me a lot knowing that someone else confesses to doing this too :)

I was a late bloomer, one of the last of my class to start looking more like a woman than a girl. I remember being teased for wearing a training bra in 8th grade. That put an end to my comfort of changing in a locker room. I've done it but will even go to a toilet stall to change rather than change in the open. Once I get more comfortabel with my surroundings, I become less inhibitied. It's really the newness of a location that throws me off. I can change in front of family or girlfriends, although I prefer not to. But am more comfortable if it's at home than even in the department store dressing room.

I guess for me it's a location thing. If I'm familiar with and comfortable in that location, I'm ok. But even changing alone in a doctors office is uncomfortable for me because the location is unfamiliar.

I don't just "hang out" in the locker room naked, but I do what I need to do. I don't have any issue with people who want to walk around naked. I'm at the gym to work, and in the locker room to change clothes, and I can't be bothered worrying about other people.

As for body image and being judged, I tend to think that if my body is the most upsetting thing someone's seen, then they need to get out more. It ain't a fashion show! :)

When I finally decided I was going to join a gym I made a pact with myself that I would dismiss my worries of a)not having the "right" look as far as clothing & b)being naked & changing. No one else seems to care at all. I'm pretty sure most of us are alike....worried about what others think of us but not thinking anything negative about them.

Changing in the locker room at the Y now is light-years from my middle-school through college years. I swim as part of my regular exercising, and it's just way more convenient and comfortable (out, darn chlorine!) to shower right away before getting dressed. My Y has private shower stalls, so the majority of my completely-naked time is spent there. However once I'm ready to dress I'm back at the lockers and there's a minute or two where I'm naked while putting on undergarments; it's just too difficult and slow to try and cover up with a towel while putting on a bra and underwear. It's been my experience that the other women aren't openly judgmental and more likely to be busy hiding their own discomfort at being (near-)naked with strangers. Of course, my 10.5yo daughter is mortified at my openness and insists on using one of two private changing stalls that are available. Well, she's young... she'll get over it! :-)

I usually talk to people while they are showering next to me but no one really lingers when they look. Mostly older ladies have no problem talking while naked. Many of the older ladies have excellents bods for being 70+ and sometimes I think that they must have been glorious in their days.

I'm usually okay with brief glances etc until some dipstick brings a 5+ year old boy in the gal's locker/shower area. Yes it is against the rules but some women are idiots. I think that is too much information for a kid of the opposite sex to handle.

My gym has changing stalls, so I go for those if I don't change beforehand. However, I've become used to changing in the locker rooms -- thanks to swim team, gym classes, and living with co-eds. However, my friends bust on me that I am pretty darn good at changing without anyone seeing anything. (That's what extra large towels are for! :)

At 51, I'm just not shy or embarrassed about being naked in a locker room, although I do try to respect other people's comfort levels. I'll do my best to have a towel wrapped at my hips and one over my shoulders, but I also don't hide when I'm changing. It's frankly too much work to be fussing with towels and draping and carefully arranging. I find it a great reality check, to see real women naked, however. It's NOTHING like what we are led to believe on TV and in magazines. And, we're all so very different!
What I really really really find gross, though, is the one woman who will put a towel on the floor, and sit on it naked, while grooming her TOENAILS! ICK ICK ICK! there's always one real freebird in the crowd.
bottom line, we come into the world naked, we'll be going out that way as well, and there's nothing to be ashamed or embarassed about. And frankly, we all imagine that people pay way more attention to US than they actually do. Most people just don't care what you look like, one way or the other.

Oh, you should live in Italy!
I go to the gym on an American post over here. We have both Americans and Italians (along with a host of other nationalities - it is the military after all - America's Mini-Melting Pot).
American's for the most part (myself included), will put a towel around ourselves as we undress and not look at anyone while we are doing it.
The Italians (and some of the other European nationalites) will just wander around without a top and just a thong on (NOT COOL by the way!).
While I don't mind if someone is wandering around naked, someone wandering around with just a thong on is a bit much.
But, when in Rome...(in my case, literally!)
The locker room also doesn't bother me because when I was in the military, I had to use gang showers - which means 20 females with only two shower heads in an oversize shower. You learn to lose your inhibitions real fast if you ever have any hopes of getting clean!
It's not so bad. After all, for the most part, everyone is just a nervous as you are.

Changing in the locker room... I only do it if there is nobody in there and a small chance of anyone entering while I'm changing. I definitely am embarrassed of my body right now and would rather not have it all out there for everybody to see, even if it's just for a few seconds while I'm changing my shirt.

I've been going to the gym mornings before work lately, so I take a shower before I leave. Most of the other people who are showering around the same time as me shower and then change in the open part of the locker room; I prefer to change in the little stall between each shower and the open part of the locker room. I have a feeling that as I get into better shape, I won't be afraid to change in the open, but I definitely will never be one of those people parading around in their birthday suit for all to see. I don't care how good shape you are/are not in, I don't want to see ANYBODY wandering around the locker room naked. (Thankfully I don't usually have to see that at my gym. And I'm especially thankful I have never seen anyone sit down naked on the bench... ughhhhhh!)

I do not take showers at the gym for fear of getting sick or some type of infection. I'm just too much of a germaphobe for that. I was very self-conscious of my body growing up. I "developed" quite early and was a lot "bigger" than the other girls so I was terribely self conscious. I struggled with my body image a lot longer after that and I just recently became comfortable changing in the locker room.
I don't mind being bare on top but being bare on bottom, I think is a little innapropriate. Sitting on benches without bottoms is very unsanitary as well.
I don't think it is bad or inconsiderate to walk around naked. Many women are from different backgrounds and cultures and to be naked is something that doesn't bother them. So to go as far as saying it's inconsiderate is a bit of a little exaggeration. I'm glad I can change in the locker room now. I am so much more secure in my body and I am proud of who I am the person I have become. Someone looking at my saggy boobs and judging them will not change the person I am, the content of my character, and it will not make me fatter! :)

I've never been one to change in front of other people. I also have a thing about public showers so I won't use the showers at the gym..that thought to me just seems like bacterial infection waiting to happen! (shudder) There is nothing strange about having modesty and not wanting to change in front of people!

This has never crossed my mind. I am by no means a skip about naked in front of strangers type, but if I need to change/shower/whatever, I just do it, whether I weigh 229 (now) or 135 (high school). I have hang ups about my avoir de poids, but I, as Nike says, just do it!

It is definitely a personal preference and we all have different levels of comfortability. I have always been self conscious undressing in front of other women. But as I have lost weight and become more comfortable in my own skin I find myself less so. I will attempt to be as modest as possible--choosing to stay wrapped in a towel on the way in and out of the shower. And while I am putting on my makeup and drying my hair...I need to cool off before I get dressed completely. I don 't mind doing these things in my bra and maybe my skirt/pants...but I'm still not comfortable in nothing or just my undies...What also helps me is that I am at the gym at 5:00 a.m. every morning and at that time of day only the die hard committed exercisers are there...and they are so focused on getting in their work out and gettting to the office...just like me...so we don't have time to be looking at each other and judging each other.

Do what works for you is my motto...the most important thing is going to the gym and doing what you need to do to be healthy.

When ever I go to the y for swimming, i never change in the locker room. I have neverchanged in front of another person, not even my husband of 43 years.

I'm glad I'm not alone! I have changed at the club in one of the changing rooms but only when I have had to, my preferance is to come dressed in my workout gear and leave with it on. Last Saturday morning a woman was standing stark naked with her foot propped up on the bench bending over putting lotion on her legs - um- at the very least she should have a towel wrapped around her. I had to walk right behind her to get to my locker... a LITTLE uncomfortable. God bless her for being so comfortable with herself but come on! To each his own as they say.

I totally agree with Ms Michols, I feel uncomfortable to undress in front of others, and especially in my gym women love to get naked. It is just not my thing.

The "proud nudes" make me uncomfortable. I'm OK with undressing and redressing in a change room but don't frolic around lathering on lotion and spending half an hour and conversing undressed. Just undress and redress please and thanks. I have so many "proud nudes" at my gym I just change before I go and use the lockers nearest the gym room rather than the shared pool & gym change rooms. It's their choice and good for them if they feel comfortable in doing so but it doesn't sound like I'm the only one that it makes feel uncomfortable, please be considerate :)

I never change in public either! I'm happy arriving in my workout clothes, and leaving the same way. I wish I felt more comfortable doing it, because I'd love to try a water aerobics class. Oh well.

I don"t think you are weird at all. I feel the same way. I want to choose who I share my body with and it's not every woman who happens to be in the locker room at the same time as me.

I always change in the stall in the lockers room and I NEVER shower there. People give me strange looks when I change in the stall and my boyfriend kids me about waiting til I get home to shower. It is not completely about my size either. I just dont think everyone needs to see everything
