cant have us getting TOO hot now can we? and good lord!!.... we might start opening our own jars!!!
I know right , what would be the purpose of men if they didn't need to open jars ?
I cant answer this, Ive already gotten a couple warnings about my graphic sexual vocabulary.
Oh so that's what being a " personal sundial" means =P0 -

This is why I love my crossfit class the guys are just as encouraging to the girls about lifting as they are amongst themselves.0

Women should not lift weight because when I lift I moan and I grunt. It must be annoying for men because at my gym the leave really fast with their towel in front of them.
Not sure why?
:devil:
There is a woman at the gym my wife and I go to that does this, while lifting her pink 5lb dumbbells . We call her porn star0 -

i carry 50lb bags of chicken food, dog food, bunny food, wood shavings for animals, hay bales, etc. i do think it's funny when the guys are like " i got it." i'm sure it's part of their job, but i usually say " hey, you take one and i'll grab the other ;-)."
i am single. i live alone. i HAVE to be able to do things like lift heavy things! i'd be screwed if i didn't lift weights!!!!!It's not just weights... I was carrying a 30 lbs bag of dog food, no cart, because it was all I was buying, and 3 different men asked if i needed help.... ummm, no. I could one-arm it to pay and open my trunk, why would I need help?
I'm excited because I start with a personal trainer and I'm learning to lift starting Monday. The Y I'm a member of has a lot of lady lifters, because the lady PTs lift....0 -

So, after last night at the gym being asked "Aren't those weights too heavy for you? Bc that's the weight Im using"
Now, see... I would have taken that as a compliment. :happy:
My husband is proud as hell that I can lift "like a man."
Oh, so is my husband. I don't take that as a compliment because it was a pretty condescending thing for him to say. I am glad to take a compliment from someone any day.0 -

"Why do you think you NEED to be strong?" asked one of my male coworkers once.
I guess he had a point. There's nothing in my life that requires any strength from me. I can always just ask my husband or some other man to do it all for me.
/sarcasm
But please don't tell my husband that lifting weights will turn me into a guy. He doesn't know yet. Right now, he's still proud that I can do more pushups than he can.0 -
I have literally heard every reason under the sun. Including "your uterus will fall out." True story. This is my mom's #1 concern.
Also that lifting weights will increase my testosterone levels to the point that I'll grow facial hair.
And that I'll "bulk up".
And that "you'll never be as strong as a man anyway."
As I put down my 200lbs.
And put on a pair of jeans 2 sizes smaller than I used to be able to wear.0 -

1. Stop worrying what other people say and do.
2. Lifting will make you grow a penis.0
