Yin and Yang in the Gym: Are You There To Work Out? Attract and Titillate? Buddy Up? What?

Ask the Collective

free weightsI mentioned hitting the track in the gym that wraps around the free weight section where all the muscle heads hang out. There are others but it is undeniably male and Marsy up there with all the iron being flung around which gives me both a thrill and a blush.

And I think about cutting across this area (I call it “the pit”) but would never have the courage, fearing and feeling I could get pregnant in the time it would take to short-cut like that, me walking through this minefield of testosterone. But there are women who do venture into this territory and they fascinate me. There are 3 types:

virgo pin up 50sThere are some who stand in the area, but they keep to the edge and face away from the men. They are always in pairs and sort in there but not in there. I consider them “in denial”. You know. We’re in here with the men but not really, sort of like gals who go to a singles bar in groups and pretend they are not there to meet men.

The second type dresses scantily and she is there to titillate. You know those girlie posters in auto shops? These are like live versions of those posters and I am amused.

The last type is most interesting to me and also fairly rare. These are feminine women (non-steroid bodies) who can merge and blend with the men. Women who actually fit in the environment seamlessly and every time I see a gal like this I have the urge to interview her. I want her birth data! I think I am attracted because these women are the most exotic to my type.

If you were in the gym, who would your most resemble and who would you find most interesting? Does this show up in your chart?

    I used to work out with men (boys) more or less every single day when I was a teenager. And I mean working out RAW: that is do weights outdoors old style, iron and sand bags and all, run on the beach in any kind of weather, and basically going to extremes. These guys went to the junior olympics, so you can see why I was attracted. But now? I can’t do it. I found out I am not much of an athlete, and I get flustered when I get too close to a man’s sweat. That’s what growing up and having sex does to you. So now, I;m the opposite. I don’t go to the gym at all, because although I like to watch the men sweat, I can’t do it myself (anymore) with them there. And an all-women’s gym? Come on, no fun there at all. But I know the girls you are talking about; the ones who blend in. I have a friend who is like that - she is quite masculine in a way, but at the same time men are also very attracted. And she is definitely not there to get the guys attention. She IS one of the guys.

    I guess I’m in your first group, but I don’t go with a buddy to the gym. Whether or not this is in my chart, I dunno. The people at my gym are too young for me to date, so I couldn’t go in there hoping to pick someone up anyway. I’ll get the occasional glance at my boobs and then the guy will look up and be instantly turned off :P

    I wouldn’t be in that area at all. I probably wouldn’t even be walking on that track. I let my gym membership lapse this year, and if I join a new one it’ll probably be a women’s gym.

    I am definitely the girl blending in with the guys. At the gym, I am always in the weight area just working out without paying attention to anyone. Every once in a while I get strange looks, but then the people usually just shrug and get used to me. As far as my chart goes, I have masculine kite involving 8 planets plus the NN. Maybe that explains it?
