You understated the one point in this video: public nudity and sexuality are not related. People having sex in a place where public nudity is allowed, common or required, would be considered perverse by Germans just as well.
+Sandra Skywalker They are naked at times. Especially the younger ones are more open to that kind of thing. When I stayed in America for a year, I got used to them being more prude than Germans. But only when being outside and in public. Americans are also more relaxed and open to things when with family. But, back to me being in America: Before I returned home to Germany, I visited my host brothers in Florida. And I remember that I was kind of shocked when I took pictures of everyone and my younger (still older than me) hostbrother was tocuhing his girlfriends breast on the photo. I was so used to things like that not happening! But they do.On the other hand, shortly after I arrived in America, I attended the funeral of family member, I hadn't met. I was asked beforehand if I wanted to come along or not, as I hadn't known him. I did. It was my first funeral ever and I was kind of surprised by it! Yes, there was a service, a reception etc.. But after that, the family had dinner at some uncle's home. And that was rather a party, there was barbecue, the Kids and us teens taking a swim in the pool and so on. It was not a sad event after the service (from what I remember of the service and how the family member was portraited there, he probably would not have wanted his family to cry). Comparing that funeral to the funeral of my grandmother back in Germany about a year later, it was the complete opposite. But, that's just how I felt about that.
I grew up with sauna here in Germany and it’s like Dana says. Just that the common dressing rooms are not so common here in northern Germany. Mostly there are private cabins for that. But there is no non-dress-code for the sauna. You may keep on your bathing suit if you like. If you can stand that. It’s not a good idea, though and I won’t say it makes any sense to do. Only in some saunas bathing suits are no-go. It depends on the policy of the institute. But I think, if you share that experience you just adapt to the locals. It’s a form of politeness. Yeah, I understand. For an US citizen it’s maybe a bit insane, but yes. Not to be naked in a naked area is considered a bit rude at least. Because there is a certain spirit to share. When something happens like “Nipplegate” in the US we in Germany just shake our head. It’s not something that anyone would bother. It is a different thing when someone is presenting nakedness to shock people or if he or she is forced to be naked in a way, so it’s without consent. Then things will happen here, most likely you will be removed from the institution you visit politely. Or if it’s very bad what you do, you will face the police. Nakedness is very natural and consent. Actually the German nude culture is older than the German sauna culture, that was adopted and spread more like in the 70s or 80s. It fell on a fertile ground here in Germany because the FKK (Frei Körper Kultur = free body culture) is from the 1920s or something (actually 1900 but it really took off after WWI). Where there was a health school about sports, food, and consciousness about body and mind. Together with the very very free spirit of the 20s and that very young-teenage-culture and fashion it came very naturally. A whole generation, the middle aged, died in the First World War. Germany was young. And it was opposed to the times of the Kaiserreich, the imperial times where Germany still was a monarchy. And everything had to be covered. Funny thing is, that Germans are portrait in US films as those stiff and “verklemmt” means uptight people. Which would have been true for the times before the Weimarer Republik (the democracy we had before the Nazi party took over). All this nakedness was perceived as rebellious and freed the young and the old ones from the limits and dust from the 19th century. (Which was in private actually not that uptight as we think of it, it was actually quite lude, but that’s another thing.) Also the 20th had this Jugendkultur so the idealizing of the young and the young body. A precursor for what we now find in all media but much more naive and serious. It was the idea that our future is in the young and that we should give them space to discover where to go. Well, the FKK culture survived the uptight Nazi regime in Germany and it’s also true, that in Eastern Germany there was a much broader use of the FKK than here in Western Germany. Still we had our share on almost every beach, there was a FKK part. You can speculate about why it was more important in Eastern Germany than in the West. I don’t know for sure, but I guess it was the more oppressive system and it was a little escape from that. I think to be naked is also a part of expression of personal freedom in Germany. You feel free to do that. And you have a place to let drop the conventions and where you just can be a decent human being. Like there is one fact that most people don’t know, Germany is one of the countries in the world with the most dense population. So the feeling of freedom is just something that you need if you grew up here. To have this FKK culture is, I think, a very important thing for a culture. Because when you sit together, naked in such an environment you grow self consciousness and you learn to see other human beings just as what they are: humans. Not sexual objects or perpetrators or whatever media or film or paranoia or religious bigotry try to make of them. They are stripped down to some skin and hair and sweat. They are all different, nobody has a “perfect” body whatever perfect may be. Young and old and men and women can sit together, sweat and try to share a common experience. It’s peace. Differences stripped away. It’s a very good way to live healthy and come down from our modern society to what we really are. And shed our clothes together with our preoccupations.
Very interesting. I would love to go to one to experience this. Imagine if the whole world adopted this sauna culture! We would all be egalitarian and modest.
I saw it on TV, now in German Lockdown 2020, a new idea was born. You can rent a sauna on a trailer. You get it placed in front of the house for a few days and can use it with your partner as often as you want. Friends even have a private sauna in the garden, but I haven't been there yet.
Dear Dana, I've just found your videos and love them. Germany is my favorite country in the whole world. I love the culture, especially the "thermal water world" or water park culture. There are dozens or perhaps hundreds of wasserparks in Germany and not one in the entire US. You can't possibly reply to 100,000 different subscribers but, if you see this, what are your favorite water parks? You were lucky that your first was the Therme Erding. My favorite is the Mediterrana near Cologne in Bergisch Gladbach. I've also been a number of times to the excellent Claudius Therme which has the advantage of being right in the middle of Cologne. We also stayed once at the Mauritius Hotel in Cologne with its own extensive in-house Therme.
In 1973, I was a construction worker Werkstudent living in a company house where the only cleaning up was at the sink with a wash cloth -- usually at 1800 just before everybody's closing time of 1830. The old joke of "one bath a week whether you needed it or not" was no joke. Outside of an occasional rinsing down at the Hallenbad (I never did buy a bathing cap for that), I progressed to the sauna. An older man once tried to pick me up, but otherwise no awkwardnesses. I never did participate in the mixed couples nights.
All spas i know from East Germany they have small cabins where you can change your clothes but most people change them in open space. We were much more open than the Westgermans, we had 50% nude beaches at our shores - fun fact at the German - Polish border was closed until 2005, and the Eastgermans used the beach next to the border for nudist beach, when the border was open up the first thing the ultra-catholic Poles who walked over the border at the beach were naked Germans.
I'm a German American who recently married a German woman and will be moving there soon. I had been to Germany a few times to see where my family came from and had never seen or thought about saunas. I was shocked when my wife had told me that everyone goes to one naked. And that the last time she had been to one she was grabbed by a man in the shower. So the perfect option is that a few relatives have private ones, and there are woman only days at some public ones. Perfect!

T K Thank you! Baby back ribs are generally smaller than "normal" ribs (spare ribs) and have more meat on them. Here's a great break down for you: www.rupari.com/blog/whats-difference-baby-spare-rib/
Interesting video.... it reminded me of one big difference between American and European culture...at least one difference that used to exist...maybe the internet has changed that already by now, but the different sauna culture in both worlds could definitely be a remnant of this difference. Here it is (at least my theory about it): In America, nudity is always sexualized. Naked people make you think of sex. People who don't bother being naked in public are always asumed to be sexually more open and more promiscuitive than people who don't. The American equation always was: nudity = sex. In Europe, nudity has also been a taboo for several centuries, but not a taboo that did automatically relate to sex. The "don't show yourself naked in public" thing in Europe had also something to do with not being able to show class and estate. The internet however is currently about to change that. Nakedness equals porn, porn equals sex....maybe Textilfreie Saunen für Männer und Frauen won't be around forever in Germany too as nudity becomes less acceptable in German society every year and younger people are way more uncomfortable with being naked than older people... I'm not a sociologist...but that's how I see things...
I just watched your 2nd sauna video. Funny indeed for a beginner to try all those different saunas the first time. We had a sauna in our home and yes, you would go with your friends age 15/16 and up. We had great parties there too and would even run outside in the winter time to roll around the snow after the Saunagang. I really miss the German way of dealing with nudity.
I have a sauna outside of the house and it's heated up by burning wood, my parents have 2 saunas, one is outside and the other one indoors. In this festival where I go to people make all kinds of saunas out of various materials, but there's also official festival saunas. We love our saunas, I wouldn't go to one with any of my relatives though :D with friends and total strangers, sure.
yes, Finland is the home of Sauna. it's their word :D. Most world famous finish word. in germany, for it is a luxury thing to go :). spa and wellness. many Schwimmbäder have seperated swimmer and sauna dressing rooms. and cabins
So after watching this, I wanted to go to a sauna. I wondered if my gym had a sauna, and I found that they do! And it is co-ed! But everyone in there was wearing shorts and a t-shirt, except for the rather large guy who wasn't wearing a shirt. One guy was wearing sweat pants. I am sure that if I was naked, I would get yelled at. I can't believe how backwards America is from Germany.
I live in Frankfurt and I go regularly to the gym and after to the sauna at the gym. Here are the female saunas only for the females and the male saunas are mixed.
I love Saune! :D Especially during the cold season! You should visit Bad Kissingen KissSalis! It has a pretty big and awesome outside Saune park! :D It's Grand! I'm so looking Forward to going again when it Snows :D
Wanted Adventure I'm one of those Germans who don't like saunaing. For me that's way too hot. I wouldn't mind nudity - of course not! I was brought up by my parents in that way: Your body is nothing to be ashamed of. Everybody was born naked, so that's just normal. It is in fact the heat. This year's summer with temperatures often higher than 35° C is literally killing me! How much worse would it be in a sauna with temperatures like 90° C PLUS the steam that comes up with the "Aufguss". And again a very good video! A lot of information for everyone, not only people from abroad.
haha only 40?! Felt like longer at the time! :D Yeah, I thought so too, which is why now the clocks remain at one fixed time. Also with the 7 we now have, the ticking was a bit much lol
+1 for that näkemiin :D Pretty well done, everyone will know what you said and there's just that recognisable accent. If you wanted to, you could practice moving that starting A from the "can't" to "can". Now that it's been time from this video, you can progress into diftong vowels and approach being able to pronounce mäyräkoira.
My stay in Germany seems to have been with Germans who weren't so into going to the sauna; living in Japan, onsens were just essential!!! Big cultural adjustments!!!
I tried Sauna once and almost collapsed. Now that I have become a radiator-user, I might actually come to enjoy it... Maybe I should give it a second chance sometime.
in this video your editing is really irritating to be honest... you keep removing just a few frames, but it would be so much smoother to watch if it didn't jump every half sentence.......
Does anyone laugh at anyone else? What if someone has a very large "package"? Or someone is really fat? I'm not even comfortable being naked in my own bathroom, let alone in a large area with strangers. If I was there and I had to get naked in front of everyone, I'd probably freak out and just start screaming, which would make matters worse. I can't even imagine this!
+PetiteKeyboardist : Regarding the question "Does anyone laugh at anyone else?" In my (rich) experience, I've never seen or heard that - openly that is. Behind s.o. back, some people might notice extremes and might make jokes, but probably much less than elsewhere. Since there are so many people with different bodys, and people going to sauna here tend to be more mature, most people will not care. Those rude and unnerving wannabe gangster-teens showing off and insulting obese people at beaches or public swimming pools - you don't usually see any of them at a sauna. The thing that will attract the most attention in a German Sauna is someone trying to were a swimsuit :-D. After that, women with gorgeous bodys will not go unnoticed - positively ;-).
I am southamerican and live in Germany since two years, something that I really dislike about Germany is the way they just don't mind about nudity. We are people, we are not animals. Clothes have been invented for a reason. I grew up with the belief that your body is your temple, and you shouldn't share it with everyone unless you love them, it is just something so private and personal.
Mariell Belandria I think the point is that we are animals. The body is nothing major. I am from America so I understand what you are saying but it really doesn't have to be a big deal. It is just skin. Also, a naked body doesn't have to be anything sexual.
So after watching this, I wanted to go to a sauna. I wondered if my gym had a sauna, and I found that they do! And it is co-ed!

Love Sauna culture. We could use an injection of that into Canada.. they are on my must visit list when I visit Germany and Sweden
I've been to a few German saunas when I was in Germany. I miss it. Talking to anyone no barriers.
Can't concentrate on the topic due to the clocks' hands abruptly jumping at edit points.
+Andrew Piatek Focus...focus....fooocccuuuusss....
Perfect illustration if you want to learn about "movie continuity".
I love the clocks on the background!
+cowglow Yep, I'm looking at them all the time :'D

Wo sind deine?
MKu MKu pass mal auf freundchen... ich war schon zigmal in der sauna und im dampfbad, irgendwelche behinderten quellen von novafeel ist wirklich sehr seriös ;)... mal ein bischen physik unterricht für dich: in einem dampfbad ist die luft übersättigt mit wasser, deswegen entsteht auch dampf, der dampf verhindert das schwitzen, das wasser setzt sich auf der haut ab und überzieht den gesamten körper, da im gesamten dampfbadraum die gleiche temperatur herrscht ist das wasser genauso warm wie die umgebung, wasser besitzt eine enorme wärmeleitfähigkeit, die menschliche haut ist gerade mal 34 grad warm, spätestens ab 45 grad wasser temperatur kommt es zur überhitzung nach minuten und zunehmend zu verbennungen ersten grades... möglicherweise gibt es dampfbäder die 50-60 grad haben aber weniger als 100 prozent luftfeuchte, deswegen sinds ja auch keine dampfbäder im eigentlichen sinn... eine sauna die maximal 5 prozent luftfeuchte hat (nach dem aufguss kurzzeitig mehr) hat dagegen 90 grad oder mehr, der mensch überlebt sogar einige minuten 200 grad in sehr trockener umgebung ;)... ps: schön dass du googlen kannst^^
Es ist interessant zu sehen das das Video 7 min lang ist die Uhren im Hintergrund jedoch mehr als eine halbe Stunde laufen. Da sieht man mal wie viel Arbeit in einem Video steckt auch wenn es "nur" 7 min lang ist.
go to the Sauna in Sonthofen AT the Wonnemar! I spend there the wohle Day with my family: Mother, father, Sister and two brother. We love the Sauna!!!
I love your videos! You'so emotional and your videos are very instructive and enjoyable. What are baby back ribs?
T K Thank you! Baby back ribs are generally smaller than "normal" ribs (spare ribs) and have more meat on them. Here's a great break down for you: www.rupari.com/blog/whats-difference-baby-spare-rib/
Interesting video.... it reminded me of one big difference between American and European culture...at least one difference that used to exist...maybe the internet has changed that already by now, but the different sauna culture in both worlds could definitely be a remnant of this difference. Here it is (at least my theory about it):
In America, nudity is always sexualized. Naked people make you think of sex. People who don't bother being naked in public are always asumed to be sexually more open and more promiscuitive than people who don't. The American equation always was: nudity = sex.
In Europe, nudity has also been a taboo for several centuries, but not a taboo that did automatically relate to sex. The "don't show yourself naked in public" thing in Europe had also something to do with not being able to show class and estate.
The internet however is currently about to change that. Nakedness equals porn, porn equals sex....maybe Textilfreie Saunen für Männer und Frauen won't be around forever in Germany too as nudity becomes less acceptable in German society every year and younger people are way more uncomfortable with being naked than older people...
I'm not a sociologist...but that's how I see things...
Very interesting. Clothing denotes class and status, while nudity demonstrates equality. Is nudity now becoming more taboo in Germany?
I just watched your 2nd sauna video. Funny indeed for a beginner to try all those different saunas the first time. We had a sauna in our home and yes, you would go with your friends age 15/16 and up. We had great parties there too and would even run outside in the winter time to roll around the snow after the Saunagang. I really miss the German way of dealing with nudity.
Did you visit the Erdinger Therme? You have to go there - it's the best sauna paradis in Germany - and the biggest one in whole europe :-).
I have a sauna outside of the house and it's heated up by burning wood, my parents have 2 saunas, one is outside and the other one indoors. In this festival where I go to people make all kinds of saunas out of various materials, but there's also official festival saunas. We love our saunas, I wouldn't go to one with any of my relatives though :D with friends and total strangers, sure.
yes, Finland is the home of Sauna. it's their word :D. Most world famous finish word.
in germany, for it is a luxury thing to go :). spa and wellness.
many Schwimmbäder have seperated swimmer and sauna dressing rooms. and cabins
Interestingly enough you usually don't go naked into saunas in Sweden although it's located kind of between Finland and Germany.
There are always separate dressimg rooms in gyms, spas, baths and saunas. Maybe you overlooked the sign or something.
So after watching this, I wanted to go to a sauna. I wondered if my gym had a sauna, and I found that they do! And it is co-ed! But everyone in there was wearing shorts and a t-shirt, except for the rather large guy who wasn't wearing a shirt. One guy was wearing sweat pants. I am sure that if I was naked, I would get yelled at. I can't believe how backwards America is from Germany.
I live in Frankfurt and I go regularly to the gym and after to the sauna at the gym. Here are the female saunas only for the females and the male saunas are mixed.
I love Saune! :D Especially during the cold season!
You should visit Bad Kissingen KissSalis! It has a pretty big and awesome outside Saune park! :D It's Grand! I'm so looking Forward to going again when it Snows :D
Wanted Adventure I'm one of those Germans who don't like saunaing. For me that's way too hot. I wouldn't mind nudity - of course not! I was brought up by my parents in that way: Your body is nothing to be ashamed of. Everybody was born naked, so that's just normal. It is in fact the heat. This year's summer with temperatures often higher than 35° C is literally killing me! How much worse would it be in a sauna with temperatures like 90° C PLUS the steam that comes up with the "Aufguss".
And again a very good video! A lot of information for everyone, not only people from abroad.
+Xipo86 Take it or leave it. Don't complain. You'll be old , fat and ugly in no time. Will you hate yourself then?
It took you 40 minutes to record the video lol. The watches are destructing. but useful video thanks
haha only 40?! Felt like longer at the time! :D Yeah, I thought so too, which is why now the clocks remain at one fixed time. Also with the 7 we now have, the ticking was a bit much lol
+1 for that näkemiin :D Pretty well done, everyone will know what you said and there's just that recognisable accent. If you wanted to, you could practice moving that starting A from the "can't" to "can".
Now that it's been time from this video, you can progress into diftong vowels and approach being able to pronounce mäyräkoira.
i'ver actually never come across those all together dressing rooms you mentioned...
are separate changing rooms in all public baths that I know, you shouldn't generalize. Bavaria is a strange place.
My stay in Germany seems to have been with Germans who weren't so into going to the sauna; living in Japan, onsens were just essential!!! Big cultural adjustments!!!
I found a German guy tried to pick me up , in the sauna
I tried Sauna once and almost collapsed. Now that I have become a radiator-user, I might actually come to enjoy it... Maybe I should give it a second chance sometime.
where's part 2?
btw... usually they have "women" and "men" only evenings in german sanuas.
Sie sind ein Sonnenschein :-)
I will obviously have to get back into shape before going to a sauna, for everybody else's comfort
No need to!You might observe more pot bellys and cellulites than you ever imagined!
in this video your editing is really irritating to be honest... you keep removing just a few frames, but it would be so much smoother to watch if it didn't jump every half sentence.......
Sauna is from finland
Whats`s with the clocks? They're all indicate different times... :D
if i would behave in sauna like i would in a church, the sauna wouldn't get happy the few years^^
I'm curious as to whether casual nakedness would be linked to a lack of passion....I think there is a tradeoff.
Does anyone laugh at anyone else? What if someone has a very large "package"? Or someone is really fat? I'm not even comfortable being naked in my own bathroom, let alone in a large area with strangers. If I was there and I had to get naked in front of everyone, I'd probably freak out and just start screaming, which would make matters worse. I can't even imagine this!
+PetiteKeyboardist : Regarding the question "Does anyone laugh at anyone else?"
In my (rich) experience, I've never seen or heard that - openly that is. Behind s.o. back, some people might notice extremes and might make jokes, but probably much less than elsewhere. Since there are so many people with different bodys, and people going to sauna here tend to be more mature, most people will not care. Those rude and unnerving wannabe gangster-teens showing off and insulting obese people at beaches or public swimming pools - you don't usually see any of them at a sauna.
The thing that will attract the most attention in a German Sauna is someone trying to were a swimsuit :-D. After that, women with gorgeous bodys will not go unnoticed - positively ;-).
Calm down, dear.
Corporate saunas? Being able to see the beautiful women I work with naked? What is not to like?
Well.....that beautiful woman is also to see YOU in all your"glory"LOL🤣😂🤣
I am a sauna hater :-\ Don't like saunas.
👎👎👎
I am southamerican and live in Germany since two years, something that I really dislike about Germany is the way they just don't mind about nudity. We are people, we are not animals. Clothes have been invented for a reason. I grew up with the belief that your body is your temple, and you shouldn't share it with everyone unless you love them, it is just something so private and personal.
Mariell Belandria I think the point is that we are animals. The body is nothing major. I am from America so I understand what you are saying but it really doesn't have to be a big deal. It is just skin. Also, a naked body doesn't have to be anything sexual.
We're not animal at all when we have our clothes on.
You are born naked...
I love South American sensuality and European nudity.
...then keep away from naked areas..?
