Some years back my old club posted a notice that they would like to see the men cover up more in the wet area. I made a comment on the notice that I was not aware that little girls were using the mens locker room. For whatever reason the notice was taken down.
Fortunately at my Y guys don't do the towel dance. We had one new younger guy that did for about a week. Now he walks around carrying his towel instead of wearing it. Peer pressure works!
Just remember guys that peer pressure has to be making some do the towel dance. A good examples of how a true unashamed person should act in the locker room will help others relax and do what should natural for them to do. Natural as in, what they do at home. If you don't towel dance at home then why in a locker room? Just be yourself and relax.

I am going to a YMCA gym, using the PLUS member locker room. I usually go in the morning and most people are older in age. I consider myself younger. We have no problem fully naked at some point or all the time (for me, it's the latter). They have a communal shower; thus people are fully naked in the shower. Some people wrapped around their waist with a towel in the steam room (I would like sit on a towel; no towel covering). I have never seen towel dance there. 'mind you it's close to a gay area. Not everybody there is gay, but perhaps people around that area are more "open". Later in the day with younger people, the practice is slightly different, but not huge.
I went to a private gym in the past. Yes, towel dance, I have seen many; wrapping around the waist 90%; fully naked walking around - you can count with one hand; shower stalls - I don't see the need of it; and it limits your movement during shower anyway.
These are what it looks like in Canada. I know it's a bit different in the US. I've been to a community centre in London England. Communal shower as well.
The gym i joined had communal showers (not the reason I joined, but definitely not a turn-off to me), but they have since remodeled with dividers. The shower curtains the gym tried to install were trashed by the customers (serious shredding and throwing them in the trash) until the point that the gym quit putting them up. All that said, guys do the towel dance. it is amazing to me the effort men of all ages go to to hide their nudity - in a locker room?? some of the younger guys now are showering with their swimsuits on so they are not naked in the curtain-less stalls. very odd indeed.
The bath house I visit on occasion is all male, which does tend to make everyone more comfortable being nude. You are issued a towel when you enter, but seldom are they used to cover anything more than a shoulder. In the sauna towels are used to sit on, and in the steam room towels are used to dry off any sweat generated. The showers are in an open semi-circle, no dividers, and is glass on two sides. Nice place to spend an afternoon.
i just recently returned to the gym it has really surprised me the amount of guys i have saw changin from under a towel. not only that it is funny
I have been going to the "Y" for a year, most guys wear a towel or swimsuit or boxer shorts while going into the hot tub, steam room, dry sauna and showers, there are some guys who will go nude without issue, I am always nude, the younger guys are definitely afraid to go total nude, the showers have dividers with curtains and everyone closes the curtains when showering, sad that so many guys with totally awesome bodies are so uptight about being nude together.
I'm a member of a local Y and the towel dance is prevalent in the locker room and most guys wear a towel or shorts to walk to the shower stalls and make sure the curtain is completely closed. There is a rule that you must wear a swimsuit in the hot tub, but many guys wear their underwear, once in a while a brave guy will just wrap a towel around himself and go into the hot tub that way, but very few do that. I wear white UA compression shorts into the hot tub, they are almost transparent when dry, but very revealing when wet and I get some looks, both disgusted looks and approving looks. We have shower stalls and most guys make sure the curtain is completely closed, but I leave my curtain completely open. Last week the guy in the stall next to me wash leaving his shower and stopped and watched me soaping and stroking my dick for almost a minute, then walked toward the doorway, but turned around and walked back to the stall he had just left, looking as he went by, immediately turned around and stopped to look again on his way past my open curtain. He obviously wanted to get another look at me naked and playing with my cock to the point I thought he was going to step into my stall, but he hesitated and walked away - what a shame!I started taking the required naked shower after PE class in Jr High school and of course it was a gang shower and there wasn't room for all the guys to shower at the same time, so we stood in line naked waiting our turn. The PE teacher often was in the locker room to make sure all the guys took a naked shower, so there was no choice!My Y even has two private rooms where guys can change and then take their clothes to their locker. it's too bad that so many younger guys are so shy about their bodies!
If you go to the store to buy a towel, what department is it in? Bath and bedding, correct? That is because a towel is not an article of clothing to be worn. Would you wear a table cloth? Would you wear a shower curtain? Would you wear a towel out to dinner and a movie? Towels are for drying, not wearing.
