What about gi bottoms? They aren't too constricting...0

I'm thinking a fire-shooting cod-piece, like Blackie Lawless of WASP used to wear.
Best idea yet!0 -
Gosh, I'm always getting accused of looking too sexual too. *hair flip* What are we to do?0

I got a warning from my Group Fitness Supervisor today to be aware of my clothing at the gym. In my avatar, I'm wearing the same spandex that I was accused of being "too sexual looking" in when a complaint was put in the suggestion box! I wear them because if I just wore shorts, every time I kick (and I kick high) in kickboxing instruction, you'd see my "junk". At least this way I'm "contained". Through the grapevine, apparently it's from a very "religious and conservative" woman who attends my classes.
So your opinion: If I wore that to an instruction class, would you be offended?
BTW, I have no choice but to "cover up" more.
I don't really see a problem with what you're wearing.. but then I'm not looking at your toodles. Though, I think some of the other guys here in the correctional facility may have a few sexy thoughts about you.0 -
I'll give the unpopular answer.... If it's only "Through the grapevine" that it was one lady, maybe that's the problem. If the supervisor felt the need to approach you about the attire, it seems like they have gotten more than one complaint about it.0

How did you find out it was me that complained?
Ok, it wasn't really me. I'm a very conservative Christian though but I've never thought of you as being too sexual looking in that outfit. Seems appropriate enough to me.0 -
CRAB EYES SHOWING !!!!!!!!!!!!0

If she's in your class, maybe wear something loose but appropriate that might fling your junk in her direction. Next time you wear the container-wear she might be more appreciative :-P What you're wearing in the pic looks like normal gym apparel to me.

Kinda reminds me of Ben Stiller's character from the movie Dodgeball :drinker:

Sounds like a clear case of sexism - she wouldn't be complaining if you were a female wearing tight shorts. I think you should leave the solution up to your supervisor. You clearly have a very good reason for needing to wear what you wear - wearing something more inhibiting (or less, depending on how you look at it) will possibly affect your teaching. So, if you need to buy those $50.00 things, then the gym buys them for you.
Or, you could just get it over with and satisfy this woman's pent-up sexual urges.0 -
What do the male instructors at your gym wear to teach spin class? I would assume it would be bike shorts like what you have on. Maybe you could be like one psycho spin instructor I had who was constantly yelling "eyes" and doing the whole two fingers at his eyes, two fingers at our eyes. Maybe you could do the same and keep her eyes on your other "parts" besides what she is obviously focusing on! :laugh:0

Is what you are wearing allowed by company dress code? If it is then its really not fair of them to single you out based off one compliant when you're actually doing nothing wrong, unless of course they're planning to change their policy and tell everyone they can't wear shorts like that.
I'd also say that's in a pretty normal range of gym clothing, not offensive.0 -
Well, if you wore some white spandex with taint stains that should avert those sexual predators' eyes from staring at the crotchal area.
Taint stains?? WTF is coming out of your taint area, love?? :huh:0 -
Lol I walk around in my underwear so to me you look quite modest,some people got to get a life.I git hate messageson this site because of my profile pic,I happen to be proud of my achievement + us Hawaiian never wear shirts ,so maybe you should look into an official dress code policy with that gym and if you are in the rite to wear what u have on than tell every1 to shove it0

Wear your spandex and then shorts on top...that is what my UMA instructors do.0

Could be the supervisor is uncomfy bringing it up and so she put it off on this one person. Seriously would you get a warning as an instructor for ONE complaint from one person? That is hard to believe at least with the class sizes around here. I don't know how big your classes are but that's seems a bit strange to me.
just some thoughts..0 -
