Here's another example of how twisted the American mind has become when it comes to normal nudity. A "Maryland Mom" asks Amy if it was OK for her 8 year-old son to have seen his
gym teacher nude in a public changing room at the beach.
Our son saw the gym teacher from his school (in the changing room) and ran up to him. My husband followed along and introduced himself. The teacher is in his mid-20s and was at the park with his girlfriend.
As they talked, the teacher, "Mr. Z," continued to change into his swimsuit.
When they came out, my son ran up to me and said he saw Mr. Z. My husband added, "Yes, we saw all of Mr. Z."
I'm surprised they did not call the police and file an indecent exposure complaint. Obviously this is a family that is teaching its children to be ashamed of their bodies under all circumstances. Even more eye-opening is Amy's answer.
Teachers need to be careful in and out of school. This teacher should have been more circumspect. A student or that student's family might misinterpret his behavior in a way that could have consequences for him professionally.
However, if you or your husband don't want your son to see naked men, then you should avoid the changing room at a state park.
So now teachers are not allowed to change their clothes in changing rooms on the off chance that some nut might accuse them of a crime? This should have been Amy's answer:
Dear Maryland Mom, it is perfectly normal for people to be nude in public changing rooms at beaches and gyms. Mr. Z did not do anything wrong, and it is your responsibility as a parent to teach your children the difference between normal social situations where nudity is acceptable, and those where it is not. What is even more revealing is your husband's apparent surprise at seeing "all" of Mr. Z, when your son was apparently unimpressed that his teacher was nude. In this instance, you have much to learn from your own son.
