That's true. I used to swim and play naked on a beach when I was very young, probably under 7, but as far as I remember most of the prepubescent boys around me changed their swimming trunks openly and very rare anyone have bothered to cover himself with a towel for this.

But Jocasta I guess you are female and vitnessed these situations from the other point of view? What was your thoughts when you saw naked boys around your age being a young girl? Sorry if your name has confused me of your gender.

I think the double standard was very common in the past. Certainly in the 80s when I grew up.

Some of this was due to expectations of girls to be modest no doubt. Also I think some of this, as Jocasta alluded to when mentioning even older boys needing the guidance and help of their mother, was due to boys just generally being less mature both mentally and physically. Girls tended to take care of themselves.

An example of this was my sisters at the beach always changing themselves under a towel while even as an older boy I was helped to undress by my mother (or older sister) and this was done in public after which I usually remained naked for an extended period of time. My sisters would similarly shower themselves at the beach with their swimming costumes on, or somewhere in private, while I was washed naked at the beach by an older female in full view of the public. I even remember on an occassion when I actually wore swimming trunks at the beach, my younger sister being asked to retrieve my trunks from around my ankles after they'd been pulled down before I went under the shower. I recall feeling very embarrassed as she stopped in front of me "sweetly" taunting "come on Joe, feet out" as I struggled to step out of them without tripping, and otherwise stark naked, with my mother standing behind holding my waist.
