Venus de Sophie

I saw my first naked lady at the gym today. I was standing at my locker, packing up my stuff when a roundish woman in nothing but a bra and panties (albeit very LARGE panties) came strolling past. Then she came back and stopped next to the long dressing mirror, all the while talking to a friend in another row of lockers. So, actually there were two large naked women in my view.

Now, I'm no prude, but I'm not the type to walk around in my bloomers, at least not outside of my home. Even then, I generally keep it to the bedroom, quick runs to the dryer for a needed garment or those times when there is roving marital friskiness(wink). TMI?

Anyhoo, even though it's all ladies and the locker room is the spot for getting nekkid, I don't really think of it as a spot to hang out that way. There aren't any comfy chairs and the lighting is decidedly unkind. I tried to be discreet, but I suspect there was some eye popping on my part.

A few minutes later, I head to the kiddie corral to pick up Sophie. I find my daughter, sans pants, evading capture by one of the ladies who works there. They tell me that's the second time she has depantsed.

I'm pretty sure my daughter is going to wind up being one of those women that walks around naked. Frankly, I'm just happy she kept her diaper on for a change.

  1. Oh I feel your pain, I blush terribly when I see people in less than full clothing, yet I have a son who loves pulling his pants off whenever he can...I am foolishly hoping he may grow out of it, but me thinks that it later years it could get far far worse : )

  2. One of my first times at the gym, a rather large lady was showering ... and came strutting out totally naked to walk all the way across the locker room. WHY OH WHY didn't she bring a towel with her? :[

  3. I am the same way, I don't linger naked either. Get in, get out, done.

  4. Oh my gosh! Just after I had joined the gym I went on a Monday and had entered the locker room apparently right after the water arobics class had ended. I practically gouged my own eyes out after all the naked old ladies I saw!!! Needless to say I no longer go to the gym on Mondays...

  5. How funny...sounds like Addi and Sophie are alike! Addi loves to take off her pants and diaper and run around the house bare butt!

  6. I think a propensity toward nakedness must come with age. I have seen many naked senior citizens in the locker room at the YMCA. I prefer to leave sweaty in the clothes in which I arrived and use the locker room to store my coat and purse!

  7. LOL! I think Pickle is heading in the same direction--she has been depantsing (and dediapering) lately...

  8. Depantsed! Love it!

    I don't like seeing myself nekkid why would I want to see nekkid strangers?

    One more excuse-er-I-mean-reason I don't join a gym :)

  9. "Venus de Sophie? Best post title ever!

    I am all about some nudity, within the confines of my home. Thankyouverymuch.

    "Depantsed" is my new favorite word and I will be using it all day long.

  10. Hahaha! Reminds me that last week at a play area, my son took off his pants *and* his diaper in front of everyone!

  11. I hear you on the nudity at the gym. There's always that ONE woman...


    but I was a total streaker as a kid. Until the age of 8.

  12. You totally stole one of my future blog topics. You were lucky, BTW. There are a ton of old ladies at my gym who lose the bra and the granny pants. And worse? One of them started talking to me the other day about the Ravens.
    As a childhood swimmer - umm, yeah, changing clothes in the locker room is a must - I have mastered the art of clothes removal without showing any skin. Adam finds it a bit frustrating.
