I Felt Uncomfortable But Am I Being Un - "pc"
52 Answers
Ok, firstly and very importantly, I am not homophocic in the slightest.
Last night, whilst getting changed after my workout at the gym, I became very conscious that another male was looking at me. It wasnt just a passing glance, it was almost constant and I became very self aware and uncomfortable. You get used to the changing room environment and that fellow gym users are in various stages of undress from fully clothed to totally naked, but one just gets on with his own business and that is that.
But this chap was constantly looking over at me almost to the point where I wanted to ask what his problem was! It turns out that this man is gay (not a problem with me) but in a same sex changing facility I was made to feel uncomfortable. It is quite embarrasing to admit this, but, I was uncomfortable. Now, I wouldnt dream of saying anything to staff at the gym, there is a clear reason that why 2 sexes have seperate changing rooms and I never even thought about this as an issue until last night.
Am I being daft to say I was uncomfortable, I mean there is no harm done? Or would you feel similar to me?
