Shirley and I were discussing one of the editorial moves she made on the one blog she has revised so far.  My blog topic was about health clubs and the lack of modesty men display in the locker room.  My two kids enjoy going into the hot tub and I put a blurb about the kids going into a hot tub filled with naked men but that it wasn’t so bad because I didn’t let my kids sit on any of their laps.  For the record, I have my suit on and so do my kids.

Shirley told me I couldn’t take the kids in the hot tub anymore because it is disturbing to think the kids are in there with a bunch of naked guys.  I’m not sure what the problem is since I’m not going to let my kids go utilize one of the hot tub patrons as if they were a set of monkey bars and everything that goes on in the hot tub is in plain site.  It’s not like there are walls and partitions in the hot tub that would allow my kids to get perped on while I was in the hot tub.  Also, I think Shirley has this idea of a hot tub where there are harry, fat, pasty naked men spilling out of the water due to a lack of room.  Typically there are only three or four other dudes in the hot tub, and one or two of them may actually be wearing a swim suit at any given time.  So, if you could give me some feedback on this whole issue that would be great.  Is it unreasonable for me to bring my kids into the hot tub?  (the sign by the whirlpool says no one under the age of 12, but who pays attention to that?)
