Many fitness centers/gymnasiums will not allow cell phones in the locker rooms because many cell phones have picture-taking capabilities and someone may inadvertently or purposely take pictures of members changing their clothes. Does your cell phone have a camera and do you belong to a fitness center?

neither

The cameras on phones really aren't that good, no way near as good or as easy as they look on the commercials. To answer the question: no on the camera phone, yes on the seldomly used healthclub membership.

Don't belong to a gym.

I don't have a cell phone, I don't belong to a gym, and the idea of forbidding cell phones in such
situations had not occurred to me. Have they banned cameras?

Karen, 24
Ames, IA USA

No, my cell phone doesn't have a camera, and the only fitness center I use is the one in my townhouse complex.

Interesting question. I do own a cell phone and go to a fitness club, but my phone does not have picture-taking abilities. And no one has brought this issue up to my knowledge.

No and not any more.

No, I my cell phone does not have a camera. No, I don't belong to a fitness club. Nature is my fitness club.

I'm a member of a gym but my phone doesn't have a camera. Some of my friends do, though, and the quality of the photos is so awful in artificial light that nobody'd find them erotic, no matter what the content was.

I own neither a cell phone nor a camera and I don't belong to a fitness club.

No fitness center and no camera gadget in my cell phone. I would say that I don't see a need for it at all, but five short years ago I was asking what all the hype was in plain old cell phones. Then I got one... can't imagine not having it now.

no and no.

No cell phone picture taker and no gym.

Janet, 46

No, those cost too much for my usage. I rarely use my phone as it is, I wouldn't need a camera on it

Stephanie, 27

I belong to the YMCA and no, my cell phone is not cool enough to have picture taking capabilities.
