Ok, here's the deal.
Im from the Uk, and through my whole life, with the people I know, it is not common to "get naked" or in fact be seen naked by a friend, family member etc. Even in the changing rooms at the swimming pool, its always; get towel, wrap it around your waist, change, drop towel;.
At school we have showers in the changing room- but they're not compulsory, so really the only time we would use them is after a muddy football or rugby game, or in the summer if its boiling hot- but no-one would ever go in naked- we'd always keep our boxers on, or our shorts or something... those who had under-armour shorst on- would go to the toilet cubicle to swap out for boxers again.
If anyone of us were t ask a best friend to "experiment"- they would probably flip out, call you gay for the rest of your life, and spread rumours about you non-stop. Thats just how it seems to be here.

yet, I have seen several posts on here regarding experimenting, or school showers etc- and noticed that a large number of people (mainly from USA etc) have quite the opposite experience from that of mine.

Does anyone know why this is? Is it to do with the area / place I was brought up? Or is it generally a trend in America vs UK (sorry if that sounds like a typical british tourist talking) where people are more open about such things?
I cant help but think if everyone was like some people seem to be on here (i.e- open, comfortable about being naked around friends etc), there would be so much less insecurity, hate and bullying in our generation(s).
Look at naturists / nudists for example... they dont give a flying firetruck about who see's what and where!

The UK and USA is very different. The USA has so much variety its crazy. It just depends on who you are with and all that. The UK can do many things that arent common in the US. So both are different and it just depends on who you meet and all.

This depends on where in the UK you are from, and what type of school you go to.

I live east coast side of UK, go to a private school. When swimming, it is a communal area, no cubicles so you have to get changed in front of each other. School sports, again, its a shower room, with 10 shower heads, so you just go in, get washed, and then walk into the locker room to dry off and get dressed.

As for the rest of your question, you would get your head kicked in if you asked someone to give you a b/j or h/j

This has something to do with the history of the two very DIFFERENT state or country. US had it's liberty much after the British colonization. Too much liberty caused them to have liberation, cause they just feel free. That's it. :)

I agree that it does seem from posts that its more common here in the US for guys to just get naked in the school showers. But it seems like nudism/naturism is way more common and acceptable in Europe. Seems odd?

I think it depends on what part you're from because these guys say that it's different for them in the US but I live in New York and in my part, no guys are like that.

It honestly depends on where you live at. Where I live, we have showers in the schools but nobody ever uses them and I believe people would call you gay if you asked friends to experiment. Sometimes I wonder if these stories are made up.

Well although the 2 countries themselves r very different, i think the more local u go, the more diverse it is, so unfortunately, i think maybe it's more ur more extremely local area, than the country itself =/ sorry if i am right

As people said, the UK and US are completely different. Everything is different depending on the activity. Everyone thinks of the UK as 'proper' and the US has people who are just 'weird'.

I don't think it's a US vs UK thing, cause it's like that here in some areas. (like here where I grew up)...I've also heard some friends from the UK talk about that kind of thing too. So I think it just depends on the particular area, and the people there.
