BBC news website.Young girls being approached by males. Inappropriate comments ,and being made to feel uncomfortable by men who see the Gym as "their space!) Has anyone else found this ? Was thinking of joining but this has put me off a little TBH!

They're worse on the weights because they think you don't know what you're doing.
Take an mp3 player to block them out and practice your scowl.

Don't let arseholes put you off exercising.

The changing rooms might be mixed sex so you might need to wear your gym clothes there and back though and get changed and showered at home.

No. You will be fine. Some gyms have a woman’s only room. Some gyms have an area where more woman are.
