At one point it was normal for white people to be uncomfortable sharing water fountains with black people. It was also normal for women to basically be slaves to their men. Things change and the people that are slower to change or uncomfortable with change have to deal.

That's fine, but these feelings go deeper more than race relations. Nakedness and sexuality are deeper than learned behaviours.
Our ONLY point is that many people will feel uncomfortable, and that's normal. Is it the gay man in the lockerroom's problem? No
We're talking past each other. I'm saying it's a hurdle, you're saying it shouldn't be. That's fine. We agree.
What is really freaking irritating is these obtuse arguments. If we want discussion, let's be honest about feelings. There's no "coded" language, just one poster trying to appear to just not understand because they're so enlightened
