To propose a banning of the term 'gym bunny'

[BadgersArse]

1. It's sexist
2. It's belittling
3. No woman should be stopped from exercising by crap like this.

I just think of Duracell bunny presumed it was to do with that perseverance type motion

Is this a TAAT?
I always thought gym bunny could be make it female. I don't think I've ever used the term myself, but thought of it in the Duracell Bunny type of way. Lots of energy, keeps on going.

I go to lots of gym classes and I am crap. Fat and ungainly. but trying hard. I think I'm so sad that I would be quite pleased if anyone ever referred to me as a gym Bunny. ..

I thought it was a compliment.

Have I misunderstood it? I'm always learning stuff on mumsnet and now I'm a bit worried that I've inadvertently insulted people

I'm proud of being a gym bunny.

Lets ban everything and be done with it.
I know, lets ban the word ban while we're at it - that would solve a LOT of problems.

Yes trying hard. Very hard.

whatever

I used to call myself a gym bumny. Now I prefer Gym Rat, because I am small but scary:

I'm not entirely sure what gym bunny means but I'd definitely vote to outlaw "happy bunny", hate that with a passion

I am a couch potato.

Keep all daft expressions, helps identify people to avoid

To me it implies someone who is all super fit, super bouncy, in all the classes, potentially completely irritatingly PERFECT and toned and full of bunny-like bouncing energy. Male or female, definitely. Makes you tired just looking at them and probably talks about what they do at the gym ALL THE TIME.

Nothing to do with bunny girls or playboy bunny at all. Definitely more Duracell.

Thinking of doing a namechange.....

its naff. No need for any further explanation prior to the WW ban IMHO
