At my annual skin check, just last week. And every year with the same doctor! Each time I remind him I swim nude and he just says oh yes oh yes I remember now....
I remind my dermatologist of the same thing. After years of wearing underwear or a swim brief which cautiously pulled down or out to check I asked him if he was comfortable with nude patients. He said he preferred it because it allowed for a more complete an efficient examiniation.
I've been nude for the exams ever since.
Not exactly tan lines, but one time in the summer of 2020, my Bengali friend commented that my face and arms were darker than his, which he rarely sees on his friends of European descent. I didn't tell him that the color was completely even to my waist and the line there was relatively faint!
I had a heart cath done this past May. I had spent quite a bit of time in my backyard by then getting head to toe sun. Several of the nurses commented on my lack of tan lines during the procedure prep. I just said " private backyard"
When it came time to discharge me the next day, the nurse gave me instructions to keep the puncture area dry. They had poked 2 - 1/4" diameter holes in my right groin area. I could shower but dry off quickly and no tight underwear. I told her that I have not worn any undies for decades and generally went nude around home. She gave me
a thumbs up and said " ventilation is your friend"
I guess the most people who see me naked without tan lines just can imagine the reason and need no explanation. So I get comments not so often. Recently I jumped in for a conference week and went to the hotel sauna each evening, but only once a couple that came into the shower section said something like wow, stripeless tan.

It is nice to be noticed! The only question I have is this - 'a couple coming in to the shower section' makes it sound as though the area is not gender specific. Are most showers in hotel common areas in Germany shared between sexes? That's a nice thing to learn about, if true.
In Portland, OR, there is a place I like to visit when I am in town called Common Ground Wellness Center. It is essentially a clothing-optional spa that has a sauna, in-ground jacuzzi and you can also book a massage with a licensed practicioner. In any case, the place is entirely co-ed - including showers and changing room. Given that most of Europe is a lot less hung-up on nudity than here in the States, I would imagine most wellness spas in Europe have common/co-ed showers.

Although that comment was not mine, I can respond. The short answer, in most cases, is "yes". My first social nudism experience was in a German sauna at a hotel where I often stayed while there on business. Typically American, I wore a swim suit in the sauna and was alone until 3 younger women entered without suits. I left the sauna to go to the shower where I saw a couple (naked) showering and preparing for the sauna. At that point, I took off the suit, showered, relaxed in a lounge chair until ready for the next sauna cycle, then joined those who had arrived in the meantime. My social nudity experiences have only expanded from that first experience to the point where I will pass on swimming or sauna if a suit is required, enjoy hot tubs and hot springs (hence the name) exclusively without clothjing, and freehike whenever possible.
