I was wondering if anyone can tell me if the changing rooms and showers at the kristalltherme ludwigsfelde are mixed or same sex? I'd like to get the whole nudist experience of changing and showering with women. On that note I know you should cover with a towel if you get an erection but is this also true in the shower? I almost always get an erection when I'm showering alone just because I'm washing down there and it's nothing sexual. So what am I supposed to do in that situation? Stop showering and cover up? Turn away from everyone and continue? Ignore it?
I'm also not sure on the etiquette of talking to strangers, where/when is the best time to try to start a conversation? Is it better to approach locals or other tourists? I am quite shy so I want to pick the place/time people would be most receptive to chatting.

The changing rooms are awesome - as soon as you walk in, you'll still be in your clothes, but surrounded by naked and half naked women. It's also one of the few situations where you can play the guessing game about whether a cute girl has pubic hair and then find out the answer a few moments later.
You should use the showers near the sauna, as opposed to the changing room, if you want to take a co-ed naked shower. You will be super close to naked girls, so if you are worried about getting an erection, I recommend jerking off right before your trip to the sauna.
Weekday evenings or weekends will have the best crowd.
