It would suck for a traveling family, though. The parents would be fine seeing each other, nothing they haven't seen before, but with kids there would be some serious issues.
My thoughts exactly. My family always used our hot tub in the nude, bathrooms were only locked when going #2, etc. It normalizes and desexualizes the human body in a healthy way. I feel like the US's puritanical culture honestly causes more harm than good with this one.
The puritanical culture is still way to prevalent in some areas of the U.S. I've straight up met guys that started getting weirded out about other people being close to their siblings and holding hands with them/friends. I think their minds are so warped from being so deprived of human touch
My daughter is adopted and has severe ptsd from abuse at bio home. Her seeing us naked would be extremely triggering. Any hotel like this would be an immediate no.
It’s just a cultural difference. I haven’t seen my parents naked since I was so young that I had no qualms about barging into bathrooms where people are showering, and my parents weren’t even okay with that, they’d cover up as fast as possible and make me leave. That’s pretty standard in America. If you’re older than like 3 you don’t see your parents naked.

Forget where I saw it, but someone put forth a theory it's to discourage business travelers from sharing rooms
