So I'm gonna tell a quick little story I think a lot of women will relate to a couple weeks ago I was working out I was kind of there in a different time that I usually am at the gym there's this guy there that was like staring at me the whole time and I was pretty much walking from like one corner of the gym to the other cause I was using different equipment and every single time I would move he would also then just happen to be in the same area as me and he was like staring me down like he would not stop and it makes me really uncomfortable usually I am fine with stuff like that but this instance Mimi very uncomfortable almost to the point where like I said some thing to him or like the stuff at the gym and it's like crazy because I was just wearing like a tank top and Leggings and shoot like sneakers so it's like not even like I was wearing anything like super like showing a lot of skin even though it doesn't matter if I was like you shouldn't be doing that but I want to hear your stories below maybe unlike instances where this has happened to you and what you usually do because I'm a good day I might've actually like said something to him or like stared back but I was just like so baffled at the fact that this man was even doing this that I was like couldn't even do anything so yeah let me know below your struggles with this women

That's so interesting. So you think that this stuff happens more in the US? I've never really heard of that. Do you think it's more common in the US than it is in the UK? I kind of believe you actually, like, I've never thought about it though.

I am so sorry that this happened to you like that is creepy and so uncomfortable and my initial thought would be to go to a staff member and tell them what's going on because I think that would be best or if you're brave enough to tell him to like fuck off but Yeah that is absolutely not OK at all and I would like shut that down immediately that's for the staff are there for two

Oh, thank you so much. And like, I'm fine. I'm really okay. And I know that this like, isn't an okay thing for somebody to be doing. And, you know, next time if I see the guy, or even if it happens again with somebody else, I'll totally say something. But this is like one of the first instances where like, it was blatantly obvious. So I was like, this man is following me from corner to corner of the gym and I am uncomfortable. It's crazy

I'm curious if you've seen the guy again or if it's is it's just been like a one time thing

I've seen the guy one other time and the second time he wasn't doing it so maybe it was just a one time thing I don't know I don't see him a lot every once a while I do see him but if it happens again I'll totally say something

I am really sorry that happened to you. You know, my gym, like the one I used to go to actually, they had a really strict policy over things like this and it's really good to tell the manager or somebody higher up there to let them know what's going on because obviously they have security footage, they can see what you're talking about, you're not lying and they usually ban that person. Like that's what they end up doing but I haven't gone to a gym in years so maybe things have changed but yeah, I hope you're okay.

I also want to say that part of the reason, I know you're probably not wanting this as an answer, but I want to be really honest here, part of the reason why I actually stopped going to the gym, especially during busy hours, was because of things like this. Like, not only was it happening to myself, but I kept seeing it happen around me with like other individuals and I was getting extremely uncomfortable and I couldn't like work out in peace if that makes sense. So I started investing in a home gym.

Thanks so much for your kind words and you know what like it is it sucks that like women have to deal with this type of stuff you know like when you think about it like you just said oh you know what I'm out I don't feel comfortable being out in public in like a gym setting because of other men so like I started investing in a home gym so like it's good that you do that that's totally fine but like it's so sad that our culture is like that and it makes women do stuff like that because we don't feel comfortable in public

Oh yeah I really haven't seen this guy cents and I think that's cause I don't go at whatever time I was at when this happened but yeah if it happens again I'm for sure going to talk to the staff because I'm actually pretty good friends with like the staff and the other trainers that are there and I know that they would listen to me if I told them anything but yeah it's just crazy

So this is one of the main reasons why I work out at home because I'm low-key too scared to go to an actual gym with like a Quitman because the only good part of that is that there's gonna be like a bunch of handsome mostly guys there trying to help me out with the bad side is that there are a bunch of creeps and everything so she like older men and I always find out really quick because I do have like a young looking body and stuff

Yeah I totally get this and there's some days that I will like I don't wanna go to the gym because of this and I will work out at home and it's kind of sad that we have to deal with that like I know men do not have to deal with the same problem like I know they don't wake up in the morning they're like you know I really don't feel like getting sexually harassed or like stared at at the gym today so I'm just gonna work out at home and like that is so sad to me

I honestly hate working out in front of people currently I just work out at my apartment and there's less weirdos at my bar apartment in there or at the every day like planet fitness or like LA fitness and etc. etc. so yeah I don't like working out in front of people but I haven't had to had to get over that fear recently so yeah but that's my go to it's just my apartment

And that's good that you use your apartment gym and I don't have that available to me right now, but if I did I probably would utilize it more. And you know getting over, I've actually worked very hard to get over that fear of other people staring at me or whatever and have gotten over it. but like instances like this where it's like it makes you uncomfortable like you physically don't want to be there

Yeah I couldn't imagine it would make me just wanna fucking do cost tanks at home all day fuck fuck that shit that's fucked up

The way I deal with this is by working out at home, so I don't have to make any contact with anybody. That's also part of my social anxiety, so.

I know I agree with you like this type of stuff does make me just want to work out at home and not go out in public and I've worked really hard over almost the last 10 years of like just being in the gym I like getting over that like anxiety and that fear and like this is an instance where it like it just brings that all back like all that hard work that you do you're like OK this person is staring me down and following me like what the fuck

I would probably asked some sort of other guy at the gym or even like one of the workers so just sort of act like my boyfriend and like I don't know tell him to back off

This is a good idea and I could've done that I'm specifically like with the staff that's there and maybe not pretend that they're my boyfriend but like definitely could've had them involved in some type of way maybe next time if it happens
