I am often the only female working out at my gym. Trust me, I am totally ok with this. I have no self-confidence issues and am not shy around men at all. The only thing that pisses me off about being the only female is having to wait for the girlie machines or weights.

I can’t think of any reason for a man to be using 12lbs weights. It’s worse when I have to wait for them cause some pansy is hogging them. He’d better be injured cause that’s the only excuse you can have for using such small weights. That’s how much my purse weighs for crying out loud. Or the abductor/adductor machines. First of all, these were created  by an idiot and only work the intended areas if you REALLY know what you are doing (and this is rare). I personally only use them for a brief 6 week period in a year, and merely to give the rest of my legs a break. There isn’t even huge benefit to working these muscles unless you plan on walking or running sideways a lot. So when some asshole hogs one of these machines for 45 (FOURTY FIVE) minutes, I get irate. The asshole looks even more ridiculous when he puts his head between his legs after every set. He must be a post-man with a strict “walk sideways” rule. Moron.
