Question for Straight Guys Only. Others can comment, but this for men only into heterosexual biological females.

You meet someone. You think they are drop dead GORGEOUS. 23-24 years old. Amazing face and equally amazing body, with the ideal height you'd want. They then blow you away with their personality; they're kind, charming, funny, intelligent, considerate, humble, etc. You two have instant chemistry. You quickly develop a crush on her. Like no one before her. You sit down in the park and have a light lunch, ordering hot dogs or something from a nearby food vendor. You talk for about ten minutes.

You then hear her say how her last partner was female; she uses female pronouns when referring to them. The girl you just fell in love with is gay! Queer. A possible lesbian. LGBT. One of the many variations of homosexual. How would that make you feel? What would be your immediate emotional reaction? Would you pursue this girl even further, despite the news?

One of the most common complaints I have heard coming from female gym goers is just how often they are made to feel uncomfortable while at the gym because of the various unwelcome interactions with the others at the gym, specifically the male gym goers.

Ranging anywhere from what they perceive as inappropriate, uninvited stares to not being able to finish their workout without some random guy thinking it's a good idea trying to hit on them in the middle of it.
I've even heard complaints about men apparently trying to cop some feels by playing coaches and "fixing their forms" and what not, without anyone inviting them to do so.

As a personal trainer, I've had female clients confess that really the thing they were looking for during our first consultation weren't my referrals or certifications, but how I came across to them as another guy and whether I was some creep (lol).
Which is understandable, for me to do my job properly, I may have to touch people at times (but that's something a trainer will always ask your consent for and explain why they are doing it) so it's important for people to be cool with me.

If you are yourself a female gym goer, do such experiences ever get in the way of your time at the gym? How often?

Is it just uninvited staring, or have you also found yourself at the receiving end of something more inappropriate?

Is this so big of a concern/frequent nuisance for you that it gets in the way of your willingness to go to the gym, or even prevent you from going there in the first place?

Bonus Question (guys can respond too!):
Have you ever considered getting a personal trainer?
And if so what things would you be looking out for?
