    I've had the privilege to go to King Spa in Dallas and it was a m a z i n g. Once you get over the shock of being nude and realize that it's really not that weird if *everyone* is also nude, it's one of the most enjoyable experiences ever. Everyone just gets the vibe, it was almost silent (even in the common areas)- just total relaxation. Korean spa/bathhouses are THE BEST.

      Yes, it's actually unhygienic to wear clothing to spas since the gases the clothing releases upon vaporizing is bad for you and could also potentially stain/damage the sauna wood material. You are much cleaner with going in naked after you washed.

      @@iamgorgeous Honestly going to saunas made me feel less insecure about my body. First of all you don’t really look at each other’s naked bodies in detail because that would be rude. So you don’t have to feel like people are judging you for your shape/weight/skin. Secondly, seeing all different kinds of bodies and people of different ages makes you realize just how normal your „flaws“ are. Also as a woman I find the experience of being naked without being sexualized to be kind of freeing.

    As an American, I didn't really have any experience with saunas until I was an adult and learned about the health benefits. After trying it, I loved it, but I felt shy to be naked around others. Over time, I got over it, and now it doesn't bother me at all. I would totally try this. You really can overcome your fears if you're willing to try leaving your comfort zone

      The bath water is meant to be as clean as possible, which is why you’re supposed to shower before you go in. So wearing dirty outside clothes in the clean bath water is pretty rude

    I have 12 tattoos, so I wouldn’t be allowed entry since they can’t all be covered, which is, with all due respect because I understand it’s cultural, dumb. What about the pictures on my skin makes it to where I can’t sit in a bath? I really need someone to explain this to me.

    In American locker rooms we change in front of each other(at least where I come from) I don't know if there was a lot of walking around though, you just changed quick and that was it. That was in middle school though. I refuse to change in front of people now so I dont really use locker rooms.

  • @D3trix_Lotus
    @D3trix_Lotus Год назад

    I mean that’s like a norm at pools & saunas where I come from.
    Everyone showers or goes to the sauna naked together (most places divided by gender) before and after going into the pool.
    Also it’s healthy for kids to see different types of body types to get body positivity towards themselves, knowing it’s okay to look like they do, even if it’s different than their friends. Because we are all different, and that’s okay and normal.

    I have thought for a while that if communal bathing was part of American culture we probably wouldn't have so many body issues. I grew up sharing a bathroom or pool changing room, etc. with my mom, grandma, great-grandma, aunt, my sisters, friends, I have very few hang-ups about my body and am so thankful for it.
