When I go to the gym there’s always one or two girls tying up the smith machines. They lay down with their back on a bench and their twat facing the crowd instead of the wall. Then they lower the bar onto their hips and hump their hips up and down. I’m pretty sure this isn’t a real exercise but rather a mating ritual.

Actually I thought he was a dick. I see no reason to be unkind when you don't need to be. How about, no thank you.

These women suck but that shouldn't turn us into assholes either.

Maybe I misunderstood the whole exchange since everyone was masked up.

When he said no she said “excuse me”. He was forced to explain. It was rude but possibly required. It was probably set up anyway.

Yup, she could have let it go at any point, but she stood there like she couldn't believe what she was hearing. Also, yeah, probably staged.

Anyway, Roma is a new discovery for me lately. Refreshing to see a tatted up ultra-modern looking woman be anti-feminism and defend men. She's got a video similar to PJW's in the OP.

That's not what you wrote. What you wrote was (in case you forgot): "... I go out of my way to walk between them and their tripod mounted camera."

I never videoed myself at any of the gyms I used. In part because it was too much hassle to haul all that along and in part because I worked out mostly on machines. But, here in my home gym, working on learning proper form with free weights, I often video myself and I often have the phone mirrored to my iPad, on a tripod in front of me, so I can watch my form in real time.

And I sometimes post those videos so people more experienced than I, some of them who coach, can evaluate my form and get me on the right track.

The way you put it was, if I had done that at a gym you attended, you'd go out of your way to interfere with my process.

When I was did chest presses on a Smith machine I never faced the wall.

It’s a real thing, people videoing themselves. And dudes do it too. It’s annoying as fuck. They camp on equipment be it a bench, hammer strength, whatever it is, they camp. Tripod, camera, phone. They also do the same of themselves in the mirror, flexing and such. And I can tell you 9 out of 10 they are not in shape, at all. The narcissism is just unbelievable. You can do all that flexing and bullshit with your fat ass at home in the bathroom mirror. No need for it in the gym. Bodybuilders do this, that compete, looking for symmetry for the next contest or whatever. That’s always been a thing. This new deal is just fuckery. I lift every week night and have for many years and most of my adult life. These days these ultra fit dudes will come up to you and try to get you to film them doing a set. I respond that I’m busy. I’m trying to get my regiment in and bounce and I’m not there to film strangers. I put my ear buds back in and get back at it. It’s annoying. Now my commercial gym is a platform for you to film your bullshit?

These women, where to start? They wear this real revealing clothing. And 9 of 10 of them, shouldn’t be wearing it. But remember you can no longer fat shame. She is uh, big boned, or whatever the woke excuse is today as it changes all the time. It’s equivalent to a man with a big belly wearing a cut off wife beater that shows his stomach. It’s that kind of thing. You should see the women in yoga pants and yoga shorts. I see them and just feel embarrassment for them. They are so programmed. Some of the ladies are extremely large. They strut around the gym, and it’s hard not to laugh.

Then you do have a few vixen type women who do this, but they are few. Most of them are wannabees and if they are a 5 they act like they are a 9. Always act like they are way more attractive than they are. They are easy to spot as the yoga pants or shorts are the latest style. Each cheek of their butt is completely exposed. You can see the crack of their ass, etc. They come in the gym, film themselves, and purposely be in certain places in the gym so they are the most visible for the entire gym to see. And they are constantly looking around to see who is watching them to shame them. I mean it’s not like they are wearing a bikini but their attire leaves absolutely nothing to the imagination whatsoever. Every inch they are showing it, shit, every millimeter. They parade around the gym. Always it’s the leg exercises, and glutes. They all do the same exact exercises. A few of them are truly beautiful, and have really fit bodies but that is not the norm. It’s the average type women who aren’t cut etc, who pull this shit like mentioned in the video. That pro super hot chic who does the same thing is usually in there, still wearing the ho attire but tend to get down to business etc. I see them, don’t respect the attire, but do respect the work ethic. They are in there, like a very few of us, to get down to business and get out of there.

The gym is a shit show all around. They must all be on Tik thot or you tube, seeing these clowns do this on videos and try to emulate it themselves. It’s damn hard to deal with it. Campers, people surfing their phone while bogarting something. I had to get in someone’s ass last night and the night before. One guy for leaving 4 45lb plates on each side of the leg press and walking off, not reracking. The next night a clown who had 4 sets of dumbbells and when I asked to use one of the four he had bogarted for a single set, and he got an attitude about it. Dude was 50-60 years old too.

For the most part these average looking women come in the gym, and front, and do all the shit in these videos. I don’t even think it’s 1 in 10 who are very attractive who are in really good shape. That’s not common. It’s these run of the mill average type women with this behavior. Oh is he looking at me? Oh my God, he’s a creep! I’ll see it go down and I’m like lady, you came in here with your butt crack completely exposed. The clothing you have on is so tight it must leave marks for hours after you take it off and you expect men not to look at you when you are dressing that provocatively? You could wear track pants, shorts that go to your knees that aren’t a size too small and latex or whatever that shit is made out of of, but you choose to do this instead.

Society is insane now. The phone addicts drove me out of the cineplexes, something I loved. Always with the phone interruptions. Now it’s the gym with this stupidity, shit, more like insanity. 90% of the gyms now are full of idiots. I want to build my own gym, but it’s expensive and I need to move first as I’m planning to buy rural land, put down a metal building with a big garage where I can make this happen. I have to workout, it’s part of my life and lifestyle, but every night it’s a big shit show. The staff and corporations that own these gyms are pussies and too afraid to regulate with corporate policies that say no filming in the gym. Metroflex has this policy. No filming unless it’s a pro, who is in with the owner, in that little club. Big fuckers who compete and such.

But I’ll go grocery shopping some times and see young women with a t-shirt on and even shorter shorts on. Young, attractive, no muscle, but lean and in shape due to their age. When you see them it looks like they are wearing a t shirt and panties as the shorts are that short to the point their ass cheeks are hanging out. And this is society today. I ca only imagine their fathers and what they must think. I wouldn’t want my wife, daughter, sister, etc, dressing like this, at all. I give it 5 years and string bikinis will be accepted in the gyms as the corporations that own them won’t do shit. Nobody reracks and if they do it’s put back in the wrong place. People do dumb shit and break equipment. Management too afraid to do anything.

I understand the annoyances of filming, while one is trying to work out, maybe avoiding the camera.

One the other hand, it can be an attempted message to a guy that she’s into working out, keeping in shape. Often the dating app pictures include one at the gym, maybe only went one time for pictures?

I get sent a few from the gym, video too. Since I wasn’t there getting interrupted, I kinda like them.

My gym is no cameras, no cut off clothing, respect, and re-rack.

Staff enforces it. 5 locations, family owned.

"Overall, this is definitely an outfit I'd wear in the gym"...

There were none at the gym this morning. It was probably to early for them.

Quite the opposite, setup a filming section, dedicated to allow them to film, charge an extra $30 a month for the private space access

Some are definitely doing just that, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok and several on OnlyFans,

Some of these gals use the gym videos as teasers to get guys to their channels, the really hot good ones that will do most anything are making 6 figures a month in subscriber fees...

Gotta admit, if I could make $30k a month I’d be doing it too.

I can’t imagine asking some stranger to film me in the gym. How full of yourself do you have to be to do that?

Everyone's got a chip on their shoulder these days. I was into strength training in the late 70's through the early 90's. I did it because due to poor strategy I always had interest in sports that I was not naturally advantaged for. I had to compensate with dynamic physical strength. I was there for my purpose and mostly ignored everyone else. Many people were there for social reasons, both male and female. Some were there to feed an ego. I went during hours when few people would be there. January 1st through the middle of February were annoying but the resolutionists typically thinned out by end of Feb.

Anyway, there were plenty of women who dressed (and I use that term loosely) for spectators. I'm a raging flaming hetero but those chix annoyed me because I felt stereotyped by them. I'm a guy so I must want to see the outline of their hoohaa and under-boobs. I don't like being placed in boxes. I say all of this but need to admit that an opprtunity came my way once to date a fellow gym babe, but she was modest and equally dedicated. I was there for sports, she was there for her modelling career. We were both amateurs that never made it anywhere big. She was fun though.

When I got married, two of the social gym chix found out where my reception was and crashed the party. That didn't go well with Mrs DF. In fact, it soured her attitude toward my gym life. When she was pregnant with our first, she asked me to stop going because she "couldn't compete with them". She never did understand that she didn't have to. I quit and now I'm like every other shlub relaxing the sizes of my clothing.

I'm so glad there was no outrageous vanity as there is now. I would probably have had to work out at home in a lesser capacity.

I know what you mean, but there are still a lot of good people in this world who are kind and fair and harbor no ill will towards anyone. I happen to be married to such a person and I count my lucky stars, every day.

In the case of the type of female behavior we're discussing in this thread, it smacks of impotence. Why do I say this? Well, it's like this- although there are some women who are both truly intelligent and truly beautiful, nature seems to spread these advantageous characteristics out among the fairer sex. If anyone finds this remark chauvinistic or misogynistic, I would have to say that they are not being honest, or that their experience in this life is lacking or their powers of observation are weak, because it is the truth.

This means that those gals who are squeezing their juicy ass into spandex pants a size too small are in general, not all that bright. Once they realize the seat (he he) of their power, they wield it like a thermonuclear weapon. They strut around in front of men wearing (sometimes just barely) clothing that they know is going to attract the male gaze, and when they get the attention they so obviously seek, they berate and brow beat men for behaving like men. To me, this signals impotence, because unlike a keen intellect and unlike a kind, warm character, beauty comes with an expiration date. And because almost all of them realize this, they burn through their temporary advantage like a rocket consuming its fuel. At the end of that burn, what remains? Impotence, the textbook defintion of it.

It has turned out the the modern gym has become ground zero for this damned-if-you-do-damned-if-you-don't behavior. "Look at me! How DARE you look at me!!"

Being in my 70’s, I guess I could keep ogling the gals & not blinking, they’d just think I was having a seizure. All alone in my own little world.
