The important thing is to tear them down, not shore them up. Stereotypes usually have some truth to them, just as these stereotypes do. The important thing is to tear them down, not shore them up.

We all have concepts of what we percieve. In the gym that I go to, I see what the article is saying. Not all men are the same and not all women are the same. But we can all generalise, it's what we do best. Might I also like to just point out. You don't seem to like women being able to do anything better than men... hmmm. In fact the only thing you say in favour of women being able to do something better is "Women can be flexible but so can men if they train there bodies to be.. I can walk outside and ask the first women I see to try and touch her feet and I am sure I can do it just as well or better" and even thats 1/2 hearted.

I went on google to find out some work out rout's for a co-worker and some how or another found this blog. Men don't only do weight training. Many men obtain memberships at gyms to lose weight and attend spinning classes or yoga. Men don't sweat more than woman it all depends on what kind of work out the person is performing but the point of the gym is to strain your body and strain can lead to sweat. As far as men basking in their sweat.. what does it matter as long as the person carries a towel and wipes down afterwards. Your 3 reason... WOW.. Men care about their apperance just as much as women do. that is probably why they are at the gym.. Your 4th topic is outrageous.. When I first started to lift weights I constantly asked guys who looked like gym vets to help me out or I would ask my friends for help. Now that I have learned and have grown guys constantly come up to me and ask for me advice on how to obtain certain muscles. Women on the other hand are more Intimidated to ask for help and are constantly using gym equiment incorrectly. Women actually break I would say about 70 % of the machines at my local gym because they are to afraid to ask how something works. Your last point is just as Random and incorrect as the rest of your blog! Men are stronger in both upper and lower body strength. We have something called testosterone which makes stronger. That is why I can bench 335 X 4 times and you can't bench 100 one time.. That is why I can squat 405 X 8 and you can't squat your body weight. Women can be flexible but so can men if they train there bodies to be.. I can walk outside and ask the first women I see to try and touch her feet and I am sure I can do it just as well or better.. All your info is just Nonsense.. Why are men and women different at the gym because society has painted an image of "BUFF" men and "skinny" women to be beautiful..

I think women who really like going to the gym now have learnt that if you don't sweat you don't gain anything. I love nothing more than knowning i've earnt a very long shower. I must admit I go through gym shirts like there is no tomorrow! I agree with all the above comments.

I like it! Yes, it's true women have better lower body strength than upper body strength. I tend to get tired easily when training my upper body but not lower body. Women also more prone to get fat in lower body than the upper body. The funny thing for women is that the first place fat came off is the upper body, the lower body seem to have more stubborn fats and harder to burn. Maybe it applies to pear-shaped women like me. I'm not sure about apple-shaped women. For me, I love to sweat too. The more the better. It shows that my workout is worth otherwise I won't feel the 'umph' in me. :-) My gym shirt always got so soaked up till it turns yellow and old, very acidic indeed. :-P Need to throw away after 2 years or so otherwise it looks horrible!

I think women don't like the sticky feeling when we exercise. I welcome the sweat because I know that I'm really working my muscles to get fit. Hehehehe... But seriously, I think some guys really like to sit around in their sweatiness.. Ewww... Especially around the weight training area. I think I'm one of those rare gals who appreciate a good weight training session too because it builds bones and muscles. ;-) Hmmmm…

Yes, practically the more you sweat, the better it is, but not all men can stand the pig-sty odour,and when the droplets of sweat gets into your eye, you can feel the burning sensation, just like pouring acid into your eyes. Really irritating but of course, some men enjoy the sweat because the smell made them more manly!!
