BKKgayguy -
- I'm sure that you are as familiar as most of us with the prevailing Thai views on modesty, especially in semi-public places such as outside of a sauna's
'Rest rooms.'. Even in the comparative darkness of BABYLON SAUNA's steam room, for example, all too many Thais keep themselves well wrapped in their towels; whereas I - reared in the MORE Classical Greek and Roman atmospheres, or MORE liberated from local conventions - am quite unabashed at walking-about
au naturel.
- Even in the comparative privacy of a bedroom I've noticed that many Thais carry this concept of modesty to quite extreme and unnecessary lengths.
- Best advice is to follow the natives and their customs - at least initially.
