[quote=Anonymous]Hi Everyone!

We are going to be first time host parents around May of next year. We’ve done a ton of research and feel like we have most things figured out. I had two odd questions and I wasn’t sure how to navigate it. I apologize if advance if people asked these before.

1. I (HD) have a gym type setup in the basement in addition to a Peleton. I’m almost always covered up but I HATE wearing a shirt when doing yoga as well as cycling. Is it a problem to do that and go straight to the shower after or is that going to make an AP uncomfortable? If I must wear a shirt then of course I will but I sincerely hate the feeling a drenched shirt. Obviously I’m wearing shorts and all that. Just the top and it’s the only time I’m ever shirtless when not in my room.  I’d like to think it wouldn’t be a problem, but thought I’d get your opinions.

2. I have a medical marijuana card to help with a condition I have. How exactly do I bring this topic up. I’m not planning on doing so during interviews because it’s not appropriate in my mind. That said, at some point it’s going to need to be brought up. How would you navigate this?

Insights appreciated. I want to do the right thing here so I really do value your input so I don’t end up making any faux pas. As a male, I want to make sure I can do everything possible to make them feel comfortable as this is their home too. I’m approaching this with the mindset of if it was my daughter, how would I feel.

Thanks in advance![/quote]
