Nudity is actually quite hard to come by; Americans don't have the same sense of skinship that other cultures do. We see the body as something that needs to be covered. Even in the sauna, I've only ever seen one or two women besides myself naked. I joined another gym last year, and one of their selling points was the individual changing room/shower room/bathroom combinations instead of locker rooms.

Don't know about every locker room out there but I do know when my wife goes to the gym there are fully nude women in hers. I know this sadly not from hidden camera shots but the rather amusing commends my son was making at age 2 while in there with her.
'Look mommy boobies! Boobies! Boobies!'
Ah thats my boy.
But seriously don't give me this covered up non-sense. I could do without seeing another 14 year old girl 60lbs over weight showing her fat roll in a bare midriff shirt at the mall hanging around hot topic. I'll add spandex is NOT for everyone.
No we are not a puritanical society, not in the least. I deal with kids pretty much every day of those ages, and I know what they wear/don't ware. Nothing says 'prude' like a shorts that say juicy with a thong at 12.
We might be a degree short of Europeans but only a small degree, and the first nude beach I have been on was in the good old USA.
