Or if they have their own area. For something like that, they could lose more members than they'd benefit.

Why should innocent people be subjected to their umm nudeness?!?!? Well.. i guess anyone that had a problem with it could go to a different health club.. hmmm..

In Japan, you will be kicked out of a hot springs or public bath if you even think about wearing a swimsuit. I have heard that high school swim teams required you to swim nude during practice a generation or two ago. We have become such prudes and this is not a natural condition for humans.

They would probably have to stop going to the pool or get their own nude pool time.
