Men doing what?

Admittedly, I have gone way out of my way the past 40+ years to avoid locker rooms, but my recent foray into water aerobic exercise has caused me to become re-acquainted with those bastions of maleness. What has caught my attention is the tendency of men, even the 20-somethings, to grunt and groan as they dress and undress, towel or eliminate bodily waste.

Is the Freeport YMCA an enclave for overly vociferous males who announce every exertion with what Shakespeare calls "windy suppuration of forced breath," or am I too long away from male company in such surroundings? Do women vocalize their efforts with such in their locker rooms?

I find it all so odd, so very odd.
