    Apparently several universities are already on summer break because today as I went for my usual morning workout in the weight room I noticed an increase in the number of sorority-looking girls showing up all around me in their tank tops, short shorts and tight fitting yoga pants.

    Now how am I supposed to get in a good workout in with these type of girls doing straight legged deadlifts right in front of me?

    Why do women come into the weight room dressed like that?

    I complained to the front desk attendant (management wasn't in yet), but the desk girl (who was wearing tight yoga pants btw) said that these girls weren't in violation of any rules.

    Do you agree that there should be some kind of dress code against this in a public gym?

    I hate it when my clothes bunch up on me. If I'm doing planks, I don't like my top falling forward and giving full view up and down my shirt. If I'm boxing, I hate having my shirt flopping around on me. I prefer tanks because I get hot. and I don't like being hot. I tend to wear yoga pants because a) I can find them in my size (36" inseam) b) they don't chafe or ride up when I run and c) they hide my scarred up shins.

    Do I like form fitting clothes. YES I DO.

    Will I wear baggy because I think that YOU don't approve, or worry that YOU feel that I'm doing it for attention? Um... No. Not at all.

    Think what you want about me. I could care less.

    Apparently you care enough to extensively explain to us exactly why you wear these types of clothes.

    Oooh you got me.


    Tho... Really... That was pretty concise and to the point for me!

    I'm sorry, I didn't mean to get you, but I am happy to know that you do not wear yoga pants to show off your hot bod.

    No no no... I DO wear yoga pants. But I don't deadlift in them at the gym. I box instead.

    Here's a suggestion on how to get the younger ladies to put on pants...

    Be that creepy old dude that has to talk to and stare at every girl wearing short shorts. It works at my gym. The younger lady wearing short shorts kept getting hit on by 60+ year old men. She started wearing pants.

    You really think it's a good solution to hit on a young girl repeatedly and make her feel so uncomfortable she changes the way she dresses all because someone couldn't handle seeing a girl in a pair of shorts?

    Where I come from that is called bullying.

    If the poster was serious, it's more like harassment. Not bullying. But I think you may be missing the sarcasm.

    Are you one of those men who think that a woman wearing fitted clothing is 'asking for it'?

    Did you miss my question OP?

    You do realize you have to be an adult and function around women regardless of what they are wearing.

    Not sure why a woman needs to dress in a manner that means you don't' get an erection. Are you expecting perhaps a burka?


    You're responsible for your body. She isn't. Stop expecting women to change for your short comings.

    Hell yeah!!!

    I'm guessing.. NOT.

    See, if I have a problem with the dress code at my local gym, I talk to the gym about it, and verify no one is violating it.

    or,

    I keep my head down and work out, minding my own business.

    Either way, posing the question here does not answer anything.. except how silly this whole thing is.

    OP, maybe you should mind your own business and focus on your own fitness. Stop allowing yourself to be so easily distracted.

    Not sure if you're serious, but if you are, you need to find a male only gym if it bothers you that much.

    They're not doing anything wrong, you seem to have the issue with it. There are male only gyms about, and even if you don't have ones local to you, just go to a hardcore bodybuilders/weightlifters gym, I 99% guarantee you there won't be any girls there. I went to one for 3 years and can count on 1 hand the amount of other women I saw there (none were regulars, and none wore form-fitting clothes)

    Is it deadlift's that are so offensive OP. Where do you stand on girl wearing tight pants doing hip thrusts?

    I sort of understand where he is coming from. I'm still a big woman but I have noticed men will look if you're exposing yourself (my giant shorts were leaving a lot of room for inspection, if you know what I mean). I got a lot of stares, so just imagine if you're a lil petite sorority type chick, it must drive them crazy with lust. Men are men, and as we all know they have a hard time multi-tasking, which means if they're looking at women they're only focusing with 1 muscle instead of the muscles they're trying to work out...... by the way....this is a joke (sort of)!

    lol :D

    Also how are you supposed to squat in anything but form fitting pants? I'm sure I would reveal more if I wore lose pants as they would slowly work their way down everytime I get down. And they restrict movement...

    Do I give a toss what any of the guys think about my pants?

    Did you miss my question OP?

    Yes I did miss your question.
    No I am not one of those men, I have come to understand that women dress primarily to impress and win compliments from other women (and sometimes a few select men).

    Because obviously men don't care about what women dress in. That wouldn't be very manly.

    There are tons of hot bodied men and women that go to my gym and maybe I'm crazy but I've always considered them a workout bonus. Get a great workout in and some eye candy to boot! Awesome!!!!

    I forgot to bring my shorts- I was going to - but I like to save the shorts for early AM workouts when it's less creepy... I have fitted capri's for today- still too tight- and too inappropriate.

    i'll make sure I take a picture or have someone take a picture whilst I squat and get my booty on.




    Also I dress for me.

    If I'm dressing for someone else you'll know- because he'll be on my arm and I'll be preening. it's pretty easy to tell the difference.



    Side note- I learned yesterday that wearing no underwear means I'm single and looking for a good time.
    Time to start the women's clothing rules
    > no yoga pants at the gym (too distracting)
    > no yoga pants to run errands or leave the house (to trashy- you clearly let yourself go)
    > no yoga pants in yoga ( too see through)
    > no loose tops- because they are too floppy and you might catch a bra slip up or have someoen trying to check you out
    > no fitted tops- to distracting
    > no short shorts- too distracting
    > no baggy shorts or sweats- too uncomfortable- too hot- and too impractical for real work outs
    > no regular bras- too distracting
    > no sports bra- too unflattering
    > must wear underwear so you don't appear 'loose'
    > must not wear full underwear- too much wedgey
    > no thongs- too risque

    so I guess the options are
    don't work out
    or don't wear clothes

    Same here.

    I might take a glance, but generally speaking if I'm in the gym I'm there to work, not to socialize or meet anyone.
