i find it creepy, I'm there to work out and if I'm there exercising I'm already feeling insecure about my shape, sweating, wearing unsexy work out clothes and wearing no makeup. I don't want to be hit on or have my body stared like I'm a piece of meat on display everywhere I go unless I've obviously put an effort into myself and I'm feeling my best which will never happen at the gym.

i do find it cute when I get a drink from the vending machines and a guy looks at my face and smiles or introduces himself or if a guy comes over when I'm working out, smiles, looks at my face and offers to help me with my form with a certain piece of equipment if I'm doing it wrong or struggling

I.ABSOLUTELY.HATE.IT!

If it really makes me uncomfortable, I'll have a chat with the manager. And if that doesn't work, I'll go around and tell all the girls he's a creep and go out of my way to make HIM feel uncomfortable at the gym so he can realize how unpleasant it is!

I don't like it even if the guy is super hot. When I'm in the gym, I'm sweating and focused on working out. I don't want to be getting checked out and prolonged stares are aggravating.

There are some people that like attention good or bad and then there are people like me that if you look one or twice and smile its OK but them if its more times it feels like you have something on you or the guy is a creeper I'm more self conscious and don't really like people guys or ladies staring at me especially if I'm going to be sticky and stinky yuck lol

You'll often get frowned at, and they will complain to the gym management. It's an unwritten rule in most gyms. I've been told girls have left my gum just because I checked them out and smiled; I never even approached them, and they dropped their membership. Mostly these were executive type women, the kind that sleept heir wayup the corporate ladder. You can't even LOOK at them for free!

So now I avoid looking, for the most part, except at the towel girls, who seem to appreciate a little flirtation.

Sneak a peek, and smile if she sees you, or makes eye contact. But once caught stop. That's not creepy. Creepy is when a guy doesn't smile or his intentions seem... dangerous in some way. ~ Robby

I think most of us humans find it flattering for someone to check us out. However, there is a fine line between checking someone out and being plain old creepy. If you're gonna check her body out, don't keep on doing it, rather don't do it in a gross way. If she does make eye contact, or you see her notice, smile and/or say 'hi."

ChantillyMace · Answer

If she's there to workout you'll be able to tell. She'll likely be sweating and have her headphones in and have that focused look on her face. Look away. When I'm at the gym I know I feel gross and don't want someone looking or trying to talk to me. I may even be rude about it when in another situation I wouldn't mind.

If she's just there to look good and get attention then I say they may not mind being checked out.

BeautifulDisaster1 · Answer

Not at all! Just don't be a creep about it.There's creepy check outs and there's confidence boost check out. Just don't over do it. I know cause I workout. It makes me feel good. Like yes! Being here does payoff and it totally does ;  ). Just don't be a creep.

pigskin · Answer

Depends on every girl, but you don't have to stop just because it pisses them off, just be more casual about it. I think the girls who wear really stylish gym clothes and look prepped up appreciate the attention, because otherwise they wouldn't doll up. Personally, if someone's checking me out, I don't really care. That's their thing, I'm usually oblivious anyways.

JamielovesKU · Answer

I don't ven think they notice, I know that when I go to the gym I look like something the cat caughed up when I'm done from all the sweat and stuff so I don't even bother to check to see who might be checkin me out. But to answer your question, I guess it all depends on the girl.

Anonymous · Answer

i would not want to be check out at the gym. not that some girls mind because of what there is to wear as far as work out clothes go, but they go with the mindset that they're not gonna look that great. they're working out. or in my case, I'm the one tripping over my shoelaces and awkwardly walking on a treadmill. I wouldn't want a guy to watch the failure unfold.

shygirl86 · Answer

it's one thing to look and notice a attractive girl but it's another thing to gawk at a female personally I don't like it but you can't help people from looking at you but when it starts to make me feel uncomfortable then yea it's creepy

RosaliaVanderbilt · Answer

I don't think it's creepy as long as he's not staring for long periods of time with a crazed look on his face.  That would be creepy.  Besides, I check out guys at the gym so it would be hypocritical of me to say it's creepy if they check me out.

AmyTran · Answer

I'd be annoyed and kinda disturbed actually. Like, when I work on my abs, I'd be in some "provocative" positions and the guys would look. And the girls would think I'm thirsty for attention. But really, I was just working out. And I think if you're at the gym, you should be working out instead of checking out the girls.

DivaMonae · Answer

I don't find it creepy, if  a guy wants to check me out when I'm hot and sweaty feel free. And no it's not creepy it's the same as being checked out at any other place.

washize · Answer

Who doesn't take a glance at someone attractive?  A quick look doesn't bother me.  I HATE WHEN MEN STARE AT ME. I HATE WHEN MEN FOLLOW ME. Both of these cross the line and are creepy.

confugirl · Answer

Glancing once in a while and smiling when we make eye-contact is kind of cute. But if he's staring at me all the time when I'm not looking, then it's just creepy.

Kelly34 · Answer

They hate it. This is why there are women only gyms and time slots just for women at other gyms.

Moonrisekitten · Answer

I'll be honest. It flatters me. But it bothers me too. I don't like guys that "check me out". I'm not interested anyway. It kind of grosses me out. I won't pretend it isn't an ego boost though...

Luv2BRealExotic13 · Answer

It's an ego stroke if I ever went to the gym. If I can't see you I guess it's fine, if the guy is nice looking I hate it when they stare and don't say Hi or a compliment or something nice.

TedStar · Answer

Staring at someone at gym while they workout is always creepy, but a short look and appreciation should be aight. If you like what you see you can go say hi

harveykinkle · Answer

I don't go to the gym to be checked out nor to perv on others... Look once if you must but don't stare!

candlelight6 · Answer

In honest truth, I think it depends on your looks. If I'm checking you out and your checking me out then we're cool. But that's just me :/

Koldhearted · Answer

If they don't want anyone looking at them at all they can cover up. If its creepy to look well sh*t I guess a vast majority of men and women are creepy.

justbanANNAz · Answer

it depends on what I'm doing haha:P I mean its not really I like it or hate it but I don't mind:)

ArabianPwincess197 · Answer

Backwardflow · Answer

I don't think it's creepy. I think it'd be more of a compliment there.
