I went to an engineering school with a pretty high male:female ratio, and spent my freshman year in an all male dorm. Did I see walking to/from the showers in a towel... probably; walking around nude... no way. Girls could easily get onto the floors of our dorm and it was not unheard of for one or two to walk into the bathroom and watch the guys in the open gang showers, but I never heard of the other way around ever happening. I spent the rest of my college life living in my fraternity's house. Still nobody walking around nude.
You are of an age when male nudity was becoming much less common.
Being naked in an all male environment was just a normal part of life 50 years ago.
Outwith showers this is nothing more than one mans naked obsessed fantasy. No matter how many people say no, he will keep believing a lie that suits him. Some would call that gullible I think its more being naive as to what nudism is.
I'm also curious as to the "other" nudist websites that these topics are found.
A lot of it was on the old YMCA Naked group on Yahoo. To the best of my knowledge. the group ended when Yahoo stopped supporting groups.
Nude Sleepers Form and Freeballers Forum on Tapatalk both have some. Despite their names, they both have significant dicussion of nudity in general. The current Freeballers Forum is a restart and the history was lost.
I attended a religious college in the early 80s with alternating dorm floors for men and women. I don't remember any nudity, nor did people seem uptight about it. I think it was mainly out of consideration for potential women visitors (including overnight) that everyone kept their towel on in the room. We were a generation with naked high school gang showers, so having our own stall seemed like a step up in privacy. This summarizes how I see a lot of the US Midwestern thinking about nudity: neither or for it, but polite and considerate in terms of others' expectations.
I went to an all male college in the early 1950s. I don't specifically remember the showers, but they must have been gang showers because it would have been inconceivable at that time to have individual stall showers. We didn't hang around nude. Once in the freshman dorm I saw a classmate walk back to his room from the shower wearing his towel around his neck.
A few years before that I experienced male nude swimming in an indoor pool, probably in a Y; it was part of a day camp program and we only did it once so I didn't make note of where it was. As long as no girls or women could see us it wasn't a problem.
I don't want anybody crying bullshit. That was the way it was. Recently I saw a sign in a men's locker room in a gym saying towels must be worn when going to or from the showers (enclosed stall showers). That's ridiculous.

I grew up right in the in between time (high school in early-mid 1980s, college mid-late 1980s): too young to remember nude swimming in schools or the Y, but old enough to remember using open gang showers after gym class in high school and in the dorms in college. Nudist resorts are probably the only place left with open showers and somehow we are able to have them co-ed without the sky falling.
