Dont use a gym anymore, but when I did for a daily swim for over a decade I shared your belief.

To avoid being seen as cruising I just kept my eyes off others, unless they spoke to me. Regular users got to know I was one of the ones who would use the open shower (until a remodel closed it in), dry off there, and who would walk back to the lockers naked. Only once did anyone say anything about it, and he never said anything the numerous times after that when he saw me naked.

Only once did I delay getting naked thinking it was too much. A regular who would frequently chat with me about his studies, but who had no sense of personal space/ was a bit intense, sat down next to where I was standing, shirt off, about to drop trousers and don the speedo. He had seen me naked plenty of times, but I didnt think he needed to see me naked quite that close.

I'm a firm believer that locker rooms need to remain nude friendly. So I make sure that I shower naked in the open showers and I get changed without covering myself. That way others can see that nudity is normal in the locker room.I'm just wondering if it might be Giving the wrong impression that I'm cruising. I don't think I'm excessive with nudity, but any tips on how to prevent others from getting the wrong idea?
I did the same plus shaved nude. Didn't worry about what others might think.
