    Shared Baths
    There has been some questions over the months that have dealt with a child and parent bathing together. In general I feel I did not look properly at the issue.
    Ey
    While here in China, there is a custom here of a Bath House, man, boys of all ages go and bathe ( they have another one for women) While there are workers to scrub to get dead skin off, in a family a son may be washing his fathers back, or father the sons, And everyone is in the showers or bathing tubs or hot tubs at the same time.

    There is no culture issue of being nude together.

    In many toilets ( they don't call them rest rooms) they are just open rooms, you sit or squat and use the bathroom in the open with others doing the same thing.

    I have even seen some young kids and elderly doing it in the park or along the road, since that is where they are at.

    The human body and nudity is not considered wrong or bad, just natural and part of life.

    ** and until you had a milk bath you have not lived.

    So really needed to readdress my answers on these to reflect the culture the people are from.

    The culture issue with them regarding bathing, urinating, defecating is quite simple. Everything is black or white with them, no gray area.

    That has always been my idea of approaching the issue. Its not as formal as just the way I see it. Many cultures are very different from our own. To me the line is drawn at inappropriate touching. Short of that its not up to me to judge what is going on as far as attitude. Many Europeans sunbathe topless or completely nude and for them there is nothing wrong with it.

    Its mostly in America where the attitude comes into play that something is wrong. Im not saying its for everyone but for those that may choose it then it is their business not mine.
