Personally i don’t like the gym cause I can’t socialize there. I prefer a teamsport or sports club. The gym is a higher level of selfdicipline.
Is this a problem? I’ve never seen much sexism in the gym.
Its a problem.
The very reason I haven’t been to the gym in a long time.
Things must be different over here, then.
It’s a real problem. About a year or two ago I was at the gym with my husband and best friend, and this guy not only stared at us, he started taking pictures. I was furious. I know he sent them to the men who follow me. My friend saw him doing the same thing. Men stared at me every time I went to that gym. I stopped going. Now I go to a new gym where there’s a women’s only section that’s cut off from the rest of the gym. You go into the women’s locker room to get there and you need a barcode with your membership to get in so there’s no men there at all. It has cardio, machines, weights… everything you need for a workout.
It’s a huge problem. That’s why I joined a gym specifically for trans people. But resources like that don’t exist everywhere, which is unfortunate.
It’s nice. The trainers are trans also, so they know how to work with our bodies.
Wow. So cool! You’re so lucky
I would assume those on HRT would have unique demands on new muscle mass they develop?
I hope not. I personally have not been sexually harassed at the gym. The people at the gym were mainly nice. I took a swimming class with mostly women though. I might want to take yoga again there.
Gyms are like using public transport. I never know where to look. Plenty of freaks on the buses and trains. I started working out on my floor. In theory I never have to leave my home again. Would be great getting my medication homedelivered. Its like the movies we loved so much. Local Armageddon.
Correct. Also, when you have a feminine frame and want to look more masculine, there are certain exercises you can do to get there.
That really sucks. Personally I never had any weird or bad experiences at the gym. But I dont doubt that others have.
I’ve noticed there are more men than Women at my gym. Like 75% of the people there are men.
