Gym Tales - Holding onto Towels 4 Dear Life

I'm not a proponent of nudity in the gym - especially when men walk around the locker room flapping about without any concern for those around them. But I find it funny when getting dressed after a shower, guys keep their towels wrapped around their midsection until they have something on underneath. I'm not sure if they're just uncomfortable with their manhood or they think the gays are lurking behind them. Either way, their nervous behavior seems out of place to someone settling back into America from Europe where nudity is as common as cigarettes for breakfast.
