It is healthy and harmless for a man to see other men naked, becoming obsessed by seeing something hidden creates perversion. There also comes a point where obsessively hiding our bodies can become perverse as well.
Have confidence that your body is not offensive, it won't frighten the horses, so just strip off and shower with all the others.

The phobia about nudity comes from concerns about embarrassment over sexual arousal or being uncomfortable with their own sexual orientation and being eyed over by other men.
If these issues are that overwhelming, just stay away from any venue that involves full or partial nudity. That includes swimming, hot tubs, communal showers, etc.
Reminds me of the old saying "If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen".
