    Here we go again...

    I see what you mean now

    Blink, Blink, Blink....

    Them that don't know me won't like me and them that do
    Sometimes won't know how to take me
    I ain't wrong, I'm just different but my pride won't let me
    Do things to make you think I'm right

    I reckon OleTrobadour will get this, but most of you metrosexuals won't have a clue.

    It's ok, I love all y'all anyway.

    This is the most active i’ve seen chit since i returned so i’m a fan

    Eye contact isn’t offensive. Taking it as a sign to initiate further contact might be.

    You're not allowed to tell people what is and isn't offensive. Only the media can do that.

    report it to management

    make it very clear that you are not here to be ooogled!

    (and put your hands up and wiggle your fingers when you say oogled btw)

    So many things happen at the gym, after a long hard run, tired sweaty and happy you finish. Someone noticed your efforts and gives you a heads up look, positive in all things excercise not at all related to you or you peck muscles. Does the eye googling from male or female really disturbe you that much,. Be it in your mind for the work your doing or someone who thinks you attractive, because of the hard work your doing. Either way they are telling you perhaps not verbally that your program is working and they have noticed. Nothing more then that, enjoy the complement and keep pushing quietly. No need to interact.


    It doesn’t bother me. Just wondered folks thoughts…

    This thread is, in fact, a dumpster fire.


    (most) people go to the gym to work out and not to be looked at.

    eyes front, get your *kitten* done, and get out.


    the statement you've made is the equivalent of saying "WELL They were just trying to pay you a compliment when they yelled at you 'hey momma what that *kitten* do'"

    It makes people uncomfortable to be stared at, and mindsets like the one you've made here, and I'm sure your looks are totally innocent, mind you, but usually it's not, and those who are not pure of heart, like you, take this mindset too far and begin invading spaces and making the gym, a place to become strong and feel safe, less of a safe space and more of s a space to let some creep come and take a look at my bum

    well said…
