    Unisex changing rooms don't bother me

    I didn't think they actually existed in gyms in Ireland.

    There might be tons of gays in my gym. Don't know, don't care.

    Yep was in some place in Galway - don't ask me where can't remember - has a unisex changing rooms.
    Maynooth university used to have them too up until few years ago. Glenroyal in Maynooth did for a while as well.

    Anyone ever hang out around the showers using their erection as a towel holder? :pac:

    I forgot though that my local swimming pool has unisex changing rooms beside the pool, but has separate sex changing rooms for the gym area. Weird.

    Gyms are gay.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,255 ✭✭✭✭Esoteric_


    If someone in the changing room is perving on you, gay or not, it's a bit of a compliment really. Means you're not totally hideous ;)

    I don't know if they did I wasn't looking anyway.
    Unisex changing rooms don't bother me though really I don't care who's there/watching/****/etc just as long as they stay out of my personal space :pac:

    Probably for parents and kids getting changed.

    I go to a gym near Grafton St (Dublin) and there's plenty of gay lads there. Never had any problem to be honest and I wouldn't see why. Like everyone they keep to themselves and do there own thing.

    Well they're all individual cubicles. I've never seen one where everyone's walking around naked and showering in open showers together.

    Yes but in the shower area/changing rooms theres always that one person who needs to walk around naked. Why I try to get out of these places as fast as possible :cool:


  • Registered Users Posts: 318 ✭✭rochey84

    No I just wait until I'm not in a place where people could potentially feel like they are being perved on! i.e. right outside the door of the gym!!!

    As long as you dont catch the gay off them i think it's fine

    If someone is attractive then you'll look.

    Doesn't matter if they are attractive or not, if I see 'a homeless' with his bits out I'll look, groan (make disgusted face, roll eyes etc)... and then look again.

    As was said anyway, couldn't give a fig if someone is gay in the changing room, infact feel free to perv away.

    Usually the ugly people too. I have no idea where they get their confidence. :D

    I've been training in gyms a long time and I never had a problem with gay lads tbh. I tend to find serious trainers are there for serious training only, no matter what their orientation is. One gay lad I knew in London, was my go to guy when I was on a heavy day and wanted a serious spotter. Sexuality was a non-issue, but I suppose it is easy to see how the ignorant can make it one.

    With that little rod? :pac::pac:

    Yea it's like they don't care that their should be a law against them being out in public during daylight hours ....

    If I thought I was being checked out in the gym, it'd push my already elevated egotism to insufferable levels.

    Why do you think my head is so inflated! ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,269 ✭✭✭✭Sleepy


    If I was spending enough time in the gym to know that some of the other members were gay I'd be disappointed with my lack of progress if they weren't checking me out tbh!

    Be honest: 99% of people in a gym are there to look better naked.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,067 ✭✭✭✭fryup


    some people are paranoid about gays...

    Hi Lads and ladies,

    I posted something similiar in the LGBT forum but I would love a straight persons response to this question!

    How would you feel in the gym changing rooms if you knew the bloke/girl beside you and equally naked was gay? Would it make you feel uncomfortable?

    I only ask cause I'm gay and I just joined the gym and I feel uncomfortable for people in the changing rooms.

    Let me state as well by the way I DO NOT USE THE CHANGING ROOMS AS AN OPPORTUNITY TO PERV ON LADS CAUSE THE GYM IS NOT THE PLACE FOR THAT!

    Do gays walk around with the fact tattooed on their, nowadays???

    Being totally honest, I only came back into this thread because I misread your screen name and thought it was 'gay man' and thought you might tell us about the men you've checked out in gyms :(

    I am disappoint.

    Wouldn't really care, I dont imagine gay guys are in the gym changing rooms to perv and in my opinion if someone thinks they are there to look at them they have some serious ego issues

    Well there's this website out there (quite popular, won't give it's name because it's a bit 18+) but basically there's forums and everything on it where gay guys talk about where the best place to "cruise" is - usually changing rooms are very popular. Now, I'm not on said website, because I find the whole notion of cruising very perverted and sickening. From what I gather there are a lot more gay guys who go to gyms, etc., specifically to perv than straight guys who do the same.

    Y'know OP, honestly I thought I would be irked by gays oogling me but recently I changed gyms and in the new place everybody in the changing rooms changes under a towel.

    Now I'm strangely annoyed that I'm the only one manly enough to change with my balls hanging around in full view.

    Take from that what you will.

    I demand a straight men only section of the gym incase gay blokes look at us while we're working out/changing!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 937 ✭✭✭swimming in a sea


    don't bother me if gay a person is in the changing rooms, but i'd be kinda jealous they are after all getting a free lunch, so to speak.

    For every gay member maybe a straight member should be allowed to use the ladies changing rooms:D


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,808 ✭✭✭Caveman1


    i wouldn't use the showers in a gym... not because of others looking at me but because its the best way to get fungal infections in your feet.

    Ah yeah we know gyms are full of your types, no real interest in getting fit but in finding a friend.

    Rimmers over to the right, handhelds, well hold on a sec and see:eek:
