Yeah, try going to a nudist resort sometime- you get over your body
shyness quite quickly. I do have to admit that the saloon doors on the
men's restroom surprised me, with women and children walking by in the
hallway- but nobody cared, or bothered to look. I shrugged, flushed the
urinal, and stepped around the corner into the communal shower-
convenient not to need to do anything about that infamous "last
drop"....
(Another guy told me that what *did* faze him was when the female
janitor came in and replaced the paper towels while he was taking a
whiz- but again, ya just think about about it, shrug, and carry on.)
