    I'm not a fan of talking to anyone, male or female, during my workout. Before or after, no problem!

    I think it's quite rude when guys try to talk to me at the gym because I am married. I wear my rings all the time, you can't miss that I am a married woman. So when guys try to chat me up I feel as if they are saying I am a skank and a *kitten* who would cheat on her husband. Creepers!

    The worst part is when they ask to share your machine and you're on your last few reps...and they never stop talking...

    I wondered but that also brings up another question. If you are not working out in the "Ladies workout area" does that mean you do not mind guys talking to you?

    I've noticed that few gyms have a designated Women's section... the only one I've seen is at Goodlife. While I respect the concept of that, I don't see any real men's vs women's areas in the gym. That said, I recognize that most women avoid the testosterone pit that is the free weight area.

    I think that just because I venture outside of the realm of lululemon and hairspray doesn't mean I'm looking for male attention, but I'm also not one to push people away. It would drive me bonkers if I was getting hit on mid squat, but I don't mind guys striking up a conversation. Humans are social beings. I may go to the gym alone, but that doesn't mean I am closed.

    That's just me though, everyone is different.
