What Do We Talk About?

A thirty‑nine‑year‑old divorcee wonders what you’re supposed to say to strangers when everyone is naked and politics is always one sentence away.

I am thinking about visiting a resort next month. I am thirty-nine, divorced, and I can make small talk with a brick wall. But I realized I have no idea what people actually discuss when everyone is naked. Is politics off-limits? Religion? Do I bring up the weather like a coward? What is safe ground?

My name is Pat. I am thirty-nine. I just want to know if I can ask someone about the election while we are both nude, or if that is how you start a towel fight.
