I can remember taking baths with my brother. My parents were both pretty modest, but I helped take care of my father at the end of his life so not so much modesty there. I don't walk around naked in the house anymore, but I don't close my door when changing either. I'll take my bathing suit off outside and wrap in a towel. Viewer beware. If the boys need to talk to me and I happen to be changing they just stare at the ceiling or whatever. We are all pretty casual about it.
Teppy is wise.
When Scrappy calls you wise that's pretty good stuff.
Good to see progress being made, askye.
There was more, but I am too tired to scroll back.
My family was always crazy modest--not only with the seeing but the talking. Hell we didn't even ask mom for tampons/pads, we just took from her stash and hoped she replenished. But these days I'm very blasé about showing my tits. Belly, less so, but tits? Eh, they're just tits. Body in general, I'm fairly immodest really. Especially if it's not a showing off thing--are we just changing? Then who gives a crap?
Askye, I got the same "don't react, the bullies only do it because..." bullshit as a kid too. Which I think is SHITTY advice for a seven year old. Adults should fucking do their jobs and stop the bullies and punish them and not expect superhuman feats of maturity when small children are being TORMENTED by their peers!
I got "they're doing it because they're hurting inside and it makes them feel better to pick on someone else." It didn't help.
WOOOT! We have a contract on the Florida house. Please, fates, gods, goddesses and little fishes, that nothing goes wrong.

Barb, that's great. What a relief!
Wow, ton of posts today. Tomorrow I fly out to CA. I gotta do laundry and pack. Blargh. I hate that.
Don't recall everything I wanted to comment on. But {{{ Askye }}}, you did great! Many wise things were said upthread, so I just point and not.
Um. There was more, but all the boobies talk got me distracted.
omnis, are you scheduled to the hilt out here?
not to the hilt, no. Saturday night hanging with hosts. Sunday evening not scheduled yet, but Monday is an early morning, and want to be fresh for the interview.
