AIBU to wear headphones

[Mrsfloss]

I have been doing a women’s weight class for around a month. It’s really good and I am really enjoying it.

The women who runs in prides herself on her sound system and music. A lot of Whitney, Madonna. I don’t mind the music. I just prefer to listen to podcasts about stuff I’m interested in.

I have said ah I’m listening to podcasts and prefer them. She is like “no headphones in my class. My music is amazing”. When I wear them she is like headphones off in front of everyone.

Surely I can do what I want. It’s only low and I can see and hear her?

AIBU?

Is it a sort of "exercise in time to the music" type class? Or just background stuff?

I think it's a bit rude to wear headphones when someone is speaking to you in a class.

To be honest it's just awkward and rude. It's kind of like farting in a lift...there's no reason why you can't, but really....cringe. It's cringe.

It’s weight lifting everyone works alone.

If it’s rude I won’t do it I was being pretty selfish and enjoying my podcasts!

just join in. It's not for long

It’s mad eh sometimes I think things are totally normal and it’s really not!
