    Women walking naked all over the locker room just for fun.

    I am not sure what walking around "just for fun" includes. However, I certainly feel like it's ok to be naked in the dressing room. I hate conservative, Southern gyms that make me feel like I have to hide behind some silly curtain in a cramped space to change clothes. What is the biggie? Also, if I am showering at gym and drying my hair I am probably hot and remaining out of my clothes while getting ready (I do wrap a towel around me) helps keep me cool. Who wants to sweat while applying makeup?

    lane hogging in the pool. Three's a tri-club that has taken over the pool on Tuesdays and Thursdays and they don't know how to circle swim so instead of staying reasonably condensed and allow other members to use the pool the spread out and hog the whole thing. Half of them aren't even members!

    women who wear shorts so small and short you can see there vagina when they stretch. yes this bothers me, how would you feel if my stuff was hanging out all the time??

    Men with too short shorts too. Where I live, it is always a military dude (but not all military dudes) wearing the military issue shorts... eeew. definitely no "OORAH" for them

    exercise anorexics. I know it's a serious illness but it is hard to watch a skeletal girl kill herself on the elliptical for an hour.

    This^^

    My gym actually ended up quietly banning a woman who they said was trying to "convert" other gym goers into her type of starvation/exercise diets.

    I wish my gym had a ban on................... women dousing themselves in body spray, hair spray, scented lotion, perfume, etc. Totally choked out last night getting back to my locker, walking through a veritable cloud of perfumigation.

    Was just about to post the same thing. I would rather smell your stink than your perfume, please.

    Ummm I would rather smell neither!! I almost choked with weights in my hands because some guy was so funky he should have had a green cloud around him to at least warn me.

    I'd rather smell disgusting old sweat BO than be perfumigated.

    I wish my gym had a ban on wearing perfume etc in the pool. Oh wait, it does,

    I've lost count the amount of times I've been swimming, pass someone and they smell of perfume or cologne or something else. It's chokable. Lol.

    Banning them isn't going to cure them, and we don't ban other people we don't enjoy looking at...

    Children.... which to me is ANYONE under 18.... (well, I could make an exception here and there, but it would be a case by case basis).

    AND.... Mother's who have no freakin' sense and bring their 8 yr. old SON into the WOMEN'S locker room! There are FAMILY locker rooms just for this situation.

    You must not have kids...

    I agree with kids not being in the gym part, but sometimes you have to drag your son into the women's locker room if the family one is full! Especially if he has to pee. I am not sending him in the men's locker room by himself!

    ...On wearing a sports-bra as a top for women who have grab-able fat on their abdomen. There is 1 young girl who does this. Since she’s like 19 with a bellybutton ring I guess she feels she is hot stuff but her blubber literally has some overhang onto her pants, ewww! Keep it covered until you have something worthy to show off. It’s possible she weighed a lot more so now she is hot stuff compared to her former self but unless you keep a before photo tagged to your back all we see is gross squish, no thanks.

    That is pretty rude!! Just because you don't have the confidence she does, does not give you the right to put her down. Maybe you should think about wearing a ski mask over your face. Take it as you will!!!

    Unfortunately, I never see women walking naked all over the locker room in the gym where I work out.....
