Like, why does a gym attract so many dickheads. I’m just there minding my own damn business when I overhear dudes talking about how they are ‘going to get so much pussy for lifting’ and whatever dumb shit. It’s a constant stream of male garbage coming from all around you. My fault for not wearing headphones I guess.

Is that why you lift? Really? Are most gym bros just terminally insecure man children? Fucking hell man. Who unironically talks like that? I know I’m probably in a bubble as a sober, vegan communist but still.

    I’m a fellow communist who has been lifting for 15 years. I’ve literally never experienced this IRL. People say that gym bros are like this online, but I’ve never seen it. I’ve seen nothing but hella nice dudes. I’m not saying the toxic right wing selfhelp joe rogan gym bro isn’t out there, I just think that stereotype is way overblown.
