While slightly out of my comfort zone, I can cope with this as a European male, however people from other countries such as USA or Middle East may not be comfortable, hence I think there should be separate male and female facilites or inleast a particular ladies time ,particularly in the international hotels. If its hygienic to enter the whirlpool naked then why bother wearing shorts or trunks in the pool, I just kind of cant work that one out
The separate pools or separate times for men and women remind me of some "orthodox" hotels in Israel.
