Leave the Heavy Lifting to the MEN!!

KCoolBeanz

I lift things. Like the groceries bags I bring home so I can make my boyfriend a sammich! Anything other than that and I'd be too worried about getting all bulky and man-looking-like. So un-feminine.

YES!!! Someone gets it!

I'm not saying don't work out....just don't lift. Unless you have those light, pretty weights. Those are easy to use and I love all the colors!

I HAVE those - pretty purple 3 pounders but I was afraid i'd get all manly if I used them...its ok???

I think you should buy pink 2 pounders JUST to be safe. You don't want to risk gaining muscle. It weighs more than fat, you know.

I hear people talking ALLL the time about how women can lift just as good as men can and not get big and SUPAH bulky doing it.

I'm sorry, but I just don't see it. Women CANNOT do everything that men can do and I think lifting is a prime example of this. Ya'll should just leave the lifting to the men, since at least THEY know what they're doing.

While you're at it, you should just let your man be the breadwinner too and work while you stay home...that way, your man can have a hot meal on the table when he walks in the house at night, which he most certainly deserves. Women should do the housework and raise the kids, since that's the job they were put on this Earth to do.

If the need to work out is there, do everyone a favor and stick with the cardio....you DO realize how ridiculous ya'll look trying to lift the heavy things, don't ya? Wish I had a good gif to prove my point!

You are good woman. Only problem is you think too much. Woman are not supposed to have opinions. Please leave decision whether you should lift or not to your husband. It's his butt after all and he should choose if he wants it shaggy or toned. Now go back and focus on your dishes, woman.

I like you already.

It's so funny when people can't sniff out a troll. For those of you who need to know what a "troll" is - or "trolling" as a verb - please see your local google.com

Love these posts. :laugh:

WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU.. IT IS WOMEN LIKE YOU WHO WRECK IT FOR OTHER WOMEN.. I DON'T UNDERSTAND.. WHAT PLANET DO YOU THINK YOU LIVE ON. IT IS YOUR FAULT THAT WOMEN ARE PERSECUTED.

I THINK THAT YOU HAVE IT ALL WRONG.. THIS IS NOT THE 1800'S. GROW UP.

Women need to know their PLACE, that's all and I think it's in the kitchen and not in the weights room! I mean, what would happen if you dropped a weight and hurt yourself? What would you expect your hubby to do? Cook for HIMSELF?? :noway:

My husband cooks all the time .. this is about gender equality. why do you think yourself to be the lesser gender. by making statements like this you are making yourself out to be lesser then men. just because you have a ***** does not mean that you are not as capable as men are. and besides.. think about how much better you look if you get out of the kitchen where all the food is.. and start lifting.. your body will thank you. this has to be stopped.. i hope you don;t have any daughters .. sigh

Nope, no daughters, thank goodness...I got boys and they can LIFT! And that's what they SHOULD be doing, they need to be strong and healthy enough to get married and give me grandbabies!

It's not about gender equality so much as the delegated roles we all have. Yeah, maybe more women are working nowadays and having kids without being married, but that doesn't mean that they should do ALL the things men do. There are other ways they can get in shape without lifting weights, it's just too rough and tough for most women to handle, IMO.

I'm capable enough that I recognize my place and don't whine about it. I just keep on with my cardio and keep my man happy. What's wrong with that??

These are the only weights a real woman needs.

OK, now that's just disrespectful. I adore my pie weights...

Me too!! They really make a difference in the quality of the pie crusts! No bubbles or uneven spots!

Right?? I have yet to conquer the problem of spilling them or burning my fingers when taking them out of the crust though *LOL*

I tie mine up in a large peice of cheesecloth before I put them in my pie, then when I'm ready to take them out, I just grab the cheesecloth! No more burnt fingers or spills!

There is so much WIN in this thread OP. I agree, the only thing I should ever have to lift is my man's credit card at Saks. After all, he wants me to look pretty when I bring him that sandwich :flowerforyou:

HEY!! HELEN KELLER DID NOT FREE THE SLAVES SO THAT WE WOULD NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO FLY ACROSS THE ATLANTIC. I BET SHE WOULD HAVE GIVEN ANYTHING IN THAT CAMP NOT TO HAVE TO BE LIFTING HEAVY THINGS.

GAH. HAVE SOME RESPECT FOR HISTORY.

I LOVE those! I'm cheap and tried to improvise with popcorn kernels once. You can imagine how that turned out.:grumble:

CallMeCupcakeDammit

I sure hope you typed this from a laptop in the kitchen.

Or in the bed in labor about to pop another one out....

I read that as poop. In all fairness, it does feel like you're pooping a really big freakin' poop.

I love you, OP! When I lift, I start hearing this song in my head. I think I might be turning into a MENZ!

You can use dried beans! Just don't use the beans after you've baked them!

Never used them - I usually just throw dried beans in - do they work better than dried beans?
