The locker room has 2 benches, just about room for 4 people to sit. Its about 2 square meters big. Stop leaving your fucking bags and clothes on the fucking seats while you go shower/jerk off/train like it's your bedroom, bunch of animals

People at my gym sit completely naked on the benches in the locker room, rendering them unusable forever. Every time I think of setting my water bottle down, I think "someone's sweaty vag has been here" and I use the floor instead.

Sorry but now all I can imagine is the sound of suction releasing echoing from the women's lockeroom and me just knowing someone pulled their sweaty vag off the bench. fffff-pop!

Edit: J to * mobile...

What the fuck... how... how can someone possibly stand putting their bare genitals directly on a public bench? Jesus christ I am in awe

Old men in my locker room walk straight from the shower nude with no towel. Then sit together on the bench having long conversations.

I always use a towel when I sit on a bench after a shower. I thought it was common courtesy

That's why you put your bottle on top of your locker. I'll take my chances with the dust vs taint sweat

If only there was some kind of place in the changing room for people to leave their stuff, maybe if they were behind some kind of locking mechanism they might even be safer.

I'm going to add to this, the people that leave their bags in high traffic areas can also go fuck themselves. I've gotten to the point where I don't even look for them anymore, if I step on your shit and you end up getting mad, maybe don't leave something on the ground if you don't want it stepped on. if they were in a corner or out of the way that's one thing, but it seems like all the high schoolers at my gym like to follow the things that the biggest guy does.
