1. You might break a nail.

2. You could even bruise a male ego or two.

3. You’ll eat properly and still be able to lose fat. Work of the devil!

4. You’ll look more like an athlete and less like a runway model. Skeletal is sexy, right?

5. You’ll be able to lift heavy things without asking a man for help, thus upsetting the balance of the universe.

6. You will be seen in public without high heels.

7. You’ll grunt, sweat and feel sore. So unladylike!

8. You’ll be proud of your pert bum instead of being self conscious about it like a normal woman.

9. You’ll be more active and confident instead of sitting around looking pretty. What are you, some kind of feminist?

10. You’ll be stronger, leaner and sexier – and we all know where that can lead!

    Someone might see your super hero cape. That'd just be wrong.

    love it, too many women have the wrong perception on lifting in general and especially lifting heavy.

    But the high heels thing...omg when my wife is in high heels with her sexy legs makes me go crazy...

    11. More people will start using the parts of my gym that are actually useful and I'll have to wait longer to get my workout in

    What he means is they will be in sneakers in the gym, not in high heels. They can still wear the heels, but while in the gym they will be in public without them.

    OP: love the post :drinker:
