It's because of the military that I don't give a **** if people see me naked....

Me either. Only exception was in the military.
Is it not a cultural aspect, at least in some cultures, that the hired help is all but ignored?I’m not sure and you don’t know either, and what does that have to do with the potential cultural aspect I referenced???
Germans and Austrians, I find, would be embarrassed about being embarrassed. Body modesty seems to be a shameful thing. You're lucky you didn't run into some Freikörper at the campsite.Not sure what I might have done or said in this situation - probably not too fussed if she wasn't bothered - but I have two tales to relate.
Once, whilst changing (in a smallish room and with several others) before caving and where I had to be naked - as putting on a swimming costume and wetsuit - there was a young attractive female in our group (teenage daughter of one of the blokes), and where she didn't appear to be averting her eyes so as making it easy for me. And where I did feel a little embarrassed - especially since I think she was the girlfriend of one then and whom she later married.
The second occasion happened on a camping site in Europe (possibly Austria), and where one of the wash sites was out of order so that males and females had to use just one - the men's. I came out of a shower cubicle to find a naked lady at the sinks - with another female. I didn't make it obvious this was unusual and quickly exited and she didn't seem fussed - they don't tend to in much of Europe. Can't remember how or where I got dressed but I wouldn't have come out of the cubicle completely naked, that I can remember.![]()
Try going to a German Sauna sometime.Might be a cultural issue. I’ve been to public baths in Japan and female cleaners come in all the time to tidy up the locker room. Doesn’t phase anyone.
It wasn't any sense of shame, I just wasn't sure if I'd be doing something inappropriate (in her opinion).I'd just get dressed in front of them. I lost that shame a while ago.
I'm pretty sure she is. Not only did she keep on to work, she even struck a casual conversation. She must know what a locker room is for and what happens there. She obviously didn't care.If that is what the cleaner is used to...
When it happens for the first time, it can be quite a shock, but then my experience is that after that it becomes no big thing.I'm perfectly happy cavorting around in the all-together amongst other gym users, it was the cleaner standing there talking to me that I found a bit...strange. I was wondering if she expected me to carry on as if she wasn't there...you know... powdering my nose etc etc...
Someone I know said much the same when in Japan.Might be a cultural issue. I’ve been to public baths in Japan and female cleaners come in all the time to tidy up the locker room. Doesn’t phase anyone.
