Part of the reason is that lots of games during the engineering frosh at my university encouraged clothing removal (it wasn't called naked naked engfrosh for nothing). It's now become more tame because of third party complaints but being in an environment where people are comfortable just taking it off and going nuts does help ease your insecurities. It's also a good icebreaker, it's kind of hard to feel awkward around someone when you've gone streaking with them. <br /> <br />The other thing that helped was rowing. We had a small change room with one shower, you had to get naked in close proximity to other guys getting naked, and I sure as hell wasn't going to sit in my car with all that nasty water (the river we row on isn't very clean) and sweat all over me. The fact that most people around me were comfortable with it made it a lot easier for me to be comfortable with it. Now I really don't care who sees me naked, I don't flaunt it and walk around the change room in my birthday suit but I'm perfectly comfortable being naked. Hell I've got a 7' wide window in my room that faces my neighbors house, maybe 15' away with windows pointed at me, and I don't even have blinds. It helps that over the last two years I've lost weight and have become more comfortable with my body, but I was comfortable being naked even before that happened.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="modules/Forums/templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>roadracer</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="http://cdn.wrongplanet.net/modules/Forums/templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Mon Nov 09, 2009 3:03 am<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">I simply dont go in them!
