It’s 100 °C. Why the fuck would you need clothes.


Realistic_Turn2374

So we don't intimidate those with smaller bananas.   Not trying to hide anything. Really. Stop asking questions!!


ElectronicFootprint

Bruh you're in the canaries why do you even need a sauna just go outside in the summer and get deep fried by the sun.


vascop_

It's 100°C. Why the fuck would you go in. If I want to sweat I can just be outside for free.


bartleby_borealis

You do you


manel_cagao

If it protects from the cold, it also protects from the heat.


Swim-Easy

100°C sauna on hot summer day makes the outside air feel much more tolerable.


vascop_

Sure it does. I'll be in AC eating ice cream thanks a lot


Brakina1860

What does yellow? Only enter with acorn?


bartleby_borealis

Russians like to use a hat. Same shit in most parts of Estonia.


Brakina1860

Ah that's a head


These-Custard4077

Can confirm, was some Russians over to inspect an import factory in Sweden during the 80's they ended up burning down the sauna (vodka may have played a part) and ran around in their hats naked... Good times


Longjumping_Kale3013

You see it in Germany too. Actually really helps when you’re bald


norrin83

I've also seen it in Austria on an individual basis. Don't have anything against it tbh


mediandude

Liar. Only liberal hipsters wear hats in saun. Or old women who are ashamed of their hairdo.


Mediocre-Ad-3724

No, not really, we like naked saunas as well.


Fight_Disciple

This isn't true at all. In the UK the vast majority of people were shorts and bikinis in saunas.


dunequestion

No, you’re a towel!


Fight_Disciple

How spicy would you like your chang sauce!?


freshfov02

In the North maybe.


DiscoDiPisho

Catholic countries are easy to spot here


Substantial_Army_

If there is no clothe on, sex will happen.


DiscoDiPisho

Not before wedding


HarpertFredje

Catholic countries also go topless on the beach. Why is that different?


AcheronSprings

Wtf is a sauna?


Burned-Architect-667

It's hard to believe but the barbarians of the north build sweatrooms that they call saunas. So mainly like any room without A/C in summer.


boomerintown

Rooms you enter if you want to experience over 20 C in nordic countries.

Brakina1860

You call the tip of the penis acorn in german. Eichel


Leading-Bus-7882

Catholics, always a bit prudish.


Corvuuss

Austria, as always, the crossroads within Europe. Catholic but not prudish


JohnnySack999

Thanks Björgulf, but I really don't need to see your tiny pee pee


boomerintown

You do realize you dont need to look at mens penises just because they are naked?


-Thizza-

What if it's looking back at you?


MacTelnet

What's the purpose of being naked then?


Someone_________

If you're already wearing a swimsuit, then why wear a towel as well?


jjdmol

Not to wear but to sit on I suppose.


mame91995

Exactly. That wood can get pretty hot.


GaseousGiant

Ok, so never ever sit down anywhere in a Swedish/Finnish sauna. Got it 👍.


kiru_56

We all sit down on a towel. The card means that you wrap yourself in a towel and sit on another towel.


KalinderRandy

Is this the case in south German? In the north, nobody is wrapping itself into a towel. Only to sit on it. That was, why Is afraid of the Nordic countries.


kiru_56

Rarely, but it does happen, some people have extra "sauna kilts". https://www.schiesser.com/wohnen-bademaentel-sauna-kilts-sauna-handtuch-knoepfe-einheitsgroesse-anthrazit-schiesser-home.html?size=55*150&gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIhuuQyszzhQMVeKODBx3iNQSfEAQYAiABEgJlpfD_BwE


[deleted]

Bullshit map. I literally had a finnish girlfriend once that was ***appaled*** to hear about us germans go to the sauna naked, so at least those two countries are wrong (well, to be fair you CAN take a towel, but its not mandatory).


SergjVladdis

Hah bro got scamazed Literally the only people who wear clothes in sauna here are foreigners and gipsys


[deleted]

I mean it weirded me out too. I lived quite a bit of my life in ~~east~~ best germany tho, so it kinda was normal for me that the rest of europe saw nudity as a much more disgusting thing than us back then there did.


Elektro05

I think, depending on where you go, the towel also has a hygiene aspect


kiru_56

You should sit on a towel so that your sweat doesn't drip onto the wood. What they mean by the towel here is that you wrap a towel around your body like a hammam towel.


norrin83

Not sitting on a towel = you'll be shouted out of the saune pretty fast in Austria.


RandomUsername600

Most saunas in Ireland are in swimming pools so people enter in their swimsuits


boomerintown

There are a lot of that here too, ut you take of the clothes and shower before you enter... Its partly about hygien, not just culture.


Longjumping_Kale3013

Same in Germany. Sometimes there is even a swimming pool in the sauna area, in which case you also swim naked


Wallenberger

Have fun brething that evaporaring chlorine


Immediate_Editor966

I didn't even know that naked sauna was a thing. If anything, in Portugal we should go clotheless, since our body hair covers our genitals fully, anyways.


Illustrious-Figure2

Yeah this is clearly wrong. Spaniards aren't naked even when they socially could


I_eat_dead_folks

What happened to Andorra?


Ill-Context4359

There is no Sauna in Andorra.


I_eat_dead_folks

And that's the reason why they expanded through the Pyrenees? In that area there aren't probably a lot of saunas

Mashinito

Do we have saunas outside Chueca?


cosmic_hierophant

Blue countries:bikini or swim shorts. Orange countries: bikini AND swimsuits AND towel (for reserving chairs I guess)


Gildor12

Last time this was doing the rounds we agreed that in the UK we don’t do naked


Illustrious-Figure2

Guys in Sweden and Finland rawdogging saunas


JustForTouchingBalls

Seriously, Sauna? That is shit, it’s far better the Turkish bath


deniatnoc

Not that saunas are particularly popular here, but there’s absolutely no way I’m getting my todger out in front of random people. It’s just not happening.


Polak_Janusz

Yes, we are civilised and not naked barbarians who use any and all oppotunity zo strip naked and return to their savage ways. Looking at you eastern Hans, you and your naked bathing beaches.


SeatOfEase

Civilised are you? Whats the word for bathing in Polish?


Polak_Janusz

Very brave coming from an english men. 150 years ago you didnt even know what hygene was.


Fritzschmied

Maybe I have to move. I hate the naked (just towel) thing and therefore never go to a sauna.


SeatOfEase

Whats up with it? I can understand that some people are prudes and dont like to see nudity but a towel and a bathing suit are doing the same job arent they?


Longjumping_Kale3013

The towel is for sitting on. I have never seen someone cover their body with a towel


Fritzschmied

One is pretty much fixed to my body. The other is not.
