Okay, this is a bit rude of him, but when you dress like that can you really blame the occasional idiot for staring?

TheNerdWonder · 2021-12-06T11:01:32+00:00

Animals are animals. Women do this to men too and I'm not even denying that men do it. I know we do it.

This is why I bury my head in my phone between sets at the gym. I don't give people validation with my eyes, just for them to accuse me of some bs. It's a bait and switch tactic that I'm not going to fall into. Guess I'm lucky that I find people who dress like this to be repulsive so I'm more drawn to go to the other end of gym (or turn my back to them between sets) rather than stare.

I was at the gym today, and a person wearing yoga pants started leaning over doing dumbbell kickbacks, pushing her butt less than 2 feet away from me. So I just turned my back to her between sets and looked at my phone.

Three hours in, and the score for this post stands at 3 and the comments number 70. Is that what they call a controversial post? LOL!

TheSnesLord · 2021-12-06T11:59:53+00:00

Totally different story if the guy staring was a handsome six-foot plus chad with a six-pac I would imagine.

mikesteane · 2021-12-06T00:06:45+00:00

She doesn't want to get stared at so she posts this on the Net. LOL.

YourPillsAintWorkin · 2021-12-06T12:38:44+00:00

In basketball this is called drawing the foul. She knows exactly what she’s doing.

keenonag · 2021-12-06T08:49:48+00:00

If a guy wore that people would be staring.

sgt_oddball_17 · 2021-12-05T22:37:09+00:00

Yes, that was rude of him.

Meanwhile, she wears outfits like that so that guys will not look at her arse.

It's as ludicrous making people looking at anything a crime as it is making it a crime for anything to emit/reflect photons.

If you don't want people to stare, don't draw attention to yourself.

Society has still not accepted that biology is an actual thing, that people are largely motivated by sexuality and putting men and women together will inevitably result in attraction and arousal, regardless if the participants are consciously aware of it.

I believe it is illegal and discriminatory to advertise a product that you have no intention of selling to certain people, yet women do this all the time and then complain about consumer enquiries and consumer anger, wanting the consumer to be punished. Sex sells.

Rude was invented by prude: it's time we abandoned such repressed behaviour and called a spade a spade.

Snek1775 · 2021-12-05T23:20:03+00:00

His fault really, not for staring, but for backing down. He needed to point out that she didn't buy those overpriced leggings and wear nothing over them so that men wouldn't notice.

Every time I've had a woman try this shit on me pointing that out has shut them up real quick.

ThePigmanAgain · 2021-12-05T22:15:14+00:00

I see this shit all the time in gyms -- women dressed in outfits that scream "look at my ass!" Luckily i know enough to take only a quick glance before sneaking off to the change rooms to rub out a quick one, but not all men are going to be that subtle. Reverse the sexes on this, and you will see why she is partly to blame.

PS

The rubbing bit is a joke -- i only fancy cartoon girls, and not many of them walking around gyms.

VincentZ6 · 2021-12-06T06:58:06+00:00

Thanks for the daily reminder why male only gyms are so needed

AaM_S · 2021-12-06T14:15:58+00:00

His problem was not staring, his problem was that he was "creepy old man".

As a handsome guy, I personally never have a problem with staring or flirting with women in gyms, especially that even married women are pretty open to it.

That, my fellas, is the truth here - if you're handsome, you'll get a pass where a freak would not.

P.S. That's not to mention that you should always know where the limit is and that "no" means no, don't be creeps, though.

Another TikTok mom making the most out of nothing in order to get more channel views.

Infamous_Pay5798 · 2021-12-05T22:18:05+00:00

She’s not even attractive enough to worth the effort to look honestly. Even if she was I say don’t bother in this day and age your getting fucked.

Kindly-Town · 2021-12-06T07:17:17+00:00

Don't stare rule is only applied for ugly guys. Also, they can video any random guy who is not even looking and can screenshot any moment when his face is moving towards her and then they can caption it as staring. This movement will catch-up heat soon to defame and ban ugly guys from coming to gym.

Superb_Disaster_7676 · 2021-12-06T10:39:36+00:00

Chicks stare in the gym (and in general) just as much as guys do. We guys don’t get all butthurt about it like they do.

I don’t validate them anymore or approach. If there’s a chick attention whoring in her little sisters yoga pants, I’m gonna be on the other side of the gym.

DubsPackage · 2021-12-06T08:38:40+00:00

Are those workout clothes?

She looks like 3 pounds of ham in a 1 pound bag.

The camera is looking at her ass (which she posts on instagram because she doesn't want people staring at her ass lol.)

The guy is in front of her, not behind her.

You shouldn't come to the gym dressed like that, it's a gym, not a porno.

UnconventionalXY · 2021-12-06T01:23:01+00:00

Just like the situation with toilets, all the fuss can be avoided with individual cubicles where you work out alone and out of sight: problem solvered.

Ready_Inevitable2718 · 2021-12-06T01:13:36+00:00

This comment section is a disguisting blob of victim blaming. Imagine this in any other context. "If they didnt want to be murdered, they wouldn't have been acting so murderable". To everyone who genuinely feels justified for creeping on women because they dared to wear leggings, fuck you.

MiddleReasonable647 · 2021-12-06T15:40:39+00:00

She got the attention she craves. Now she wants to whine about it. Yeah lady, don’t dress provocatively and you won’t get ogled [we all know that’s what you sought anyway].

riverview_man · 2021-12-06T20:37:58+00:00

Things are only ever a problem when it's a man doing it unless he's an Arnold Schwarzenegger type man. Women are absolved of all consequences of they do something wrong that a man would be fully responsible for if he did the same shit.

Zinziberruderalis · 2021-12-09T03:46:03+00:00

I wonder of this is being downvoted because of feminism or fragile masculinity?

imextremelymoderate · 2021-12-10T09:16:58+00:00

Why is it necessary to specify that it's an older person? Shows how discriminatory some women are. No one says "creepy black guy" or "creepy Jew", but it's perfectly justified in their minds to go out of their way to note the age of the man

Drag_North · 2021-12-05T23:12:57+00:00

I consider myself a feminist, and I’ve been looking at this sub a lot because I really do care about men’s issues like mental health and parental rights and all that. But posts like this are part of why you’re not taken seriously. Women do not exclusively dress for male attention. Women can wear clothes that they like without being harassed, ogled, stared at etc. Most fitness clothes for women are made form fitting. I’ve never once seen an ad for women’s fitness clothes where it’s just shorts and a shirt. And some curvier women will still fill out those clothes in a way that some men might find sexual. But blaming what women wear for the actions of men is awful. It’s similar (albeit less than) blaming men for getting boners when being sexually assaulted. Blaming someone for someone else’s actions is just an awful thing to do in general, and both men and women have gone through enough of this to know that.

To be fair - let's stop the whole "when you dress like x" thing. You're just proving the feminists right by saying that. But yeah, the dude in the video seemed like he was just doing his thing to me.
