Gym. The good and the "ghaa my eyes!"

[booniesbill]

Going to the gym and feeling good about getting in better shape? Yay.

Old hairy guys wandering around nekkid in the locker room and standing around like a butterflied roast of wrinkly while they blow dry themselves all over for 10 minutes? Ghaaaaaa. Completely uncool.

...but if they didn't blow/air-dry themselves, I'm guessing that they (and everyone around them) would have to live with "damp shaggy-body-hair" smell for the rest of the day.

I, for one, appreciate their consideration...

Thankfully, while I am in the ladies locker room, the women who are in there cover themselves up with a towel if they aren't going to be getting dressed right away.

There should be a blow-dry section of the locker room.

Like at the end of the car wash!

There is actually a large room down the hall in the women's locker room not just for blow drying but any kind of primping a lot of women do. I guess the people who designed the health club didn't think the men needed a primping room (which is very different than a pimping room) :D

It could be worse. You probably felt cuter than the scary wrinkly guys.

My experience with gyms was that the other women (while not parading around nude in the locker room) glared at ME for being fatter and trying to get in shape.
