For real. She literally brings her camera everytime she goes to the gym just to shame people for simply looking at her once, she acts just like a child that that complains about every normal thing that a human could do.
Camera weirdness aside, men being piggish is really common and women becoming worried is common, sadly. I personally find a lot of interactions with men to be reallt tense sometimes until i KNOW they are safe
The funniest thing about this is that she's talking to herself using profanity with headphones on in a public area. People are going to stare if you're being excessively weird and therefore drawing attention to yourself.
The term "snowflake" gets thrown around so much to the point it's lost most of its meaning, but it sure as fucking hell applies real nicely to this bitch
TikTok has officially destroyed our social skills to the point where people make videos like this thinking that they are being harassed when, in fact, they are experiencing the absolute bare minimum of human interaction, if you can even call it interaction.
Being a overweight male, and knowing that this tends to be the stigmatization that we tend to get as males out of gym regardless of who we are, this is the exact reason why if I'm facing the wall and a woman in tight clothing walks in front of me I will actually close my eyes and literally just focus on my music instead of focusing on my form. I get so tired of feeling like I'm being made out to be creepy or whatever just because I glanced in someone's general direction for half a second because I'm always scanning around me and always looking at myself to see how my form is going, and to see if there's anyone else around me so I either don't hit somebody accidentally, or I also do that for threat analyzation. I won't deny and admit I'm paranoid, but luckily meds help manage that, but with that aside, shit like this doesn't help with that paranoia. Because now in addition to threat analyzation for the sake of someone just losing their shit for absolutely no reason, now I have to worry about women thinking I'm staring at them just because I glanced in their general direction for 3 seconds, or I did that a few times just because they're pretty and I'm trying to figure out why the fuck they keep looking over at me first before anything else, meanwhile all I was doing was just glancing around the gym to see who's there, What machines are available, and what I plan on trying to do next for a workout. Legit, I'm not kidding you, I've actually been stared at a few times by women, and I literally look at them back because I'm trying to figure out why I'm being stared at, and more often than not they're giving me dirty looks or something like that and I'm trying to figure out what the fuck I did wrong, when all I was doing was just focusing on my music, staring at the wall in front of me and just focusing on what I'm doing. I actually remember this exact video not too long ago, as it's only recently that I'm getting to this now, and actual Jim creeps, and then the falsified story of Jim creeps is to the reasons why I'm not the biggest fan of public gyms
Why did you make a whole fucking essay (not being mean also I'm very impressed that you did that, its awesome but Im just curious you did a really good job on this comment and I'm very very sorry if I hurt your feelings I'm not trying to)
Sorry to hear that. However, I think you might be overthinking it. This kind of behavior isn't the norm or standard at all. I go to the gym regularly and still have a higher body fat percentage (20-30%), and I've only had one bad interaction. With a guy. Keep heads up. There is no need for facing the walls. Internet wierdos are not that common
Keep on the grind man, I actually went to the gym as an underweight male like with barely any muscles just skin and bone by the time you wrote this and I already see myself getting better and see the muscles growing, I believe in you and exercise is for the best it just takes time and of course moderation
Ah yes, the Starbucks addict in the Target yoga pants with a tripod that sets up sting operations in order to entrap males and publicly humiliate them for personal gain. I know the type.
They're gonna have to create 2 sides of the gym. The one side that turns it into a TV set with all the Tik Toks & pictures and videos and the other side that actually just wants to exercise and get tf outta there.
Even as a person with clinical issues of paranoia bad enough to need medication, I do not understand these people thinking EVERY tiny glance is somehow malicious. At some point, you have to realize the entire world isn't out to get you specifically
I have severe paranoia partially due to traumatic experiences.. Though it isn't only me I get worried about. When I was four years old, one of my mom's students who took piano lessons at our house confronted me. Although he was not 18 or older, he was 8+ years older than me, so he knew better. He said "I want to show you something", and I innocently said yes, not knowing any better. He then tried to get me alone in different rooms, and took clothing off to show me "it". I can't remember exactly what he did with me, but all I can hope is that he didn't do any weird sh*t. Sadly, this is one of the earliest memories I remember, as I mostly remember the bad experiences in life. He later tried to show "it" to my older sister as well, but she was six at the time so she denied it (W sister 👑). A few years before that incident, my older sister was with my mom at some sort of public building, and an old man rubbed his hand on her cheek. It was hard to tell what his intentions were, but that must have been creepy as hell, and my mom was not happy about it.. A few years after those two unfortounate events, my older sister was thirteen years old when she went shopping with my mother at a grocery store. My mom looked for what she needed in the aisle she was at and asked her to go find a certain food. As she started to walk alone, she got the impression that she was being followed by an old man. Unsure that her suspicion was correct, she kept walking, in hopes that this man's 'creepy stalking' wasn't intentional. However, the man directly followed her for long enough that it couldn't have been 'accidental', as this continued through the many turns she took. Every time she looked back at him, he 'just so happened' to quickly turn around and look at a food item near him. This went on for minutes, making this guy so suspicious that my older sister picked up the pace and started running back to mom. Thankfully the guy evantually lost sight of her. A few years back, when my little sister was only seven or eight years old, she went camping with her scout group. At one point during the trip, a boy she didn't even know made an effort to get her alone with him in a tent. She only got alone with him because she had no idea that he had any weird intentions. He asked her to kiss him, and even after she politely denied, he wouldn't let her leave. He asked her for a pretend kiss instead, but she didn't want anything to do with him. Thank god, she managed to get out of the situation. I'm not sure what other intentions he may have had, as he was a few years older than her. She evantually told my parents about it, and they were pissed. When my mom and her siblings were young, a sister of hers was forced into a closet by a man. She was locked in there, and the only time the closet was unlocked was when the person decides to 'do things' to her. I'm just so glad she got out of the situation because she is such an amazing person and didn't deserve to go through that. The fact that these people at the gym are not taking the concept of 'creeps' seriously and are blaming random people for no reason just for content makes me sick. It is honestly very offensive to me and others who have been through traumatic experiences with those kinds of things. 😢
Those messed up experiences were a part of me becoming more paranoid, and these people just waiting for "weird things" to happen solely for clout are stupid. However, with or without bad experiences with creeps, I have a mindset that no one I personally know understands, and that I'm not sure I fully understand either. Over just the course of the last two years when I finally got help, I had multiple meetings with a psychiatrist, who introduced me to four differnent medications at different times that I would change the doses of, most of which didn't work for me, and the ones remaining still can't change me. I finally got set up with a therapist that I ended up loving, and to seek greater help, we ended up meeting twice a week, though they are still more like a second mom than a therapist to me. For a while I thought that some of my anxiety, panic attacks, lucid dreams, nightmares, and especially visions, may have been partially casued by my medications. To further investigate this, I thought back a few years before I took medications. Even back then, not only did I see things around me sometimes, but occasionally my vision would be entirely overlapped with crazy sh*t. This included times when I looked around my room with slightly squinted eyes and my vision was tinted green. Slightly transparent unexplainable codes including letters and numbers constantly running down in lines would appear everywhere. Sometimes the same green tint effect would have different things overlapping it such as moving spirals. As I was pretty young, I didn't think much about it being super crazy at the time. Instead, I thought it was the coolest thing ever, and would tell my little sister about the codes and hypnotically moving shapes I saw. For witness reasons, I asked her if she remembered it a few weeks ago, and funny enough, she did! Looking back at those times, I was definetely a bit messed up in the brain. Not to mention that I had the most memorable lucid dream that was partially overlapping my vision was when I was six years old or younger, and around the same time, I would hear weird whispers when I put my ear on my pillow most nights. This just kind of proved that I was always like this, I guess. Over time, things have slowly gotten worse and worse, and dealing with five other mental disorders just made it harder to find medications that also helped with my anxiety. I thought my newest medication helped for the first few weeks, but, can you guess? It didn't.. I just don't really know anymore. I guess it would just be nice to have someone to talk to that might actually understand how I feel, rather than just try to make me feel better, you know?
Hope you are doing better with the meds now, but as messed up as this might be to say, when someone who requires medication for their paranoia because it's that bad is telling people to realize that not everyone in the world is out to get them, that is a whole new level of a realization slap to people who do that kind of shit that you saw on the video
"This is why I don't want kids" "Natural selection better take the wierdos out" The fact she saw zero irony while writing those two sentences after each other tells you a lot about her mental capacity.
That's not how natural selection works, anyways. People always assume it's about the strongest and the smartest surviving. When in reality it's whoever can reproduce.
As a disabled person, I hate it when natural selection is used against people. Because the same people who use natural selection against people, most likely believe that disabled people shouldn't reproduce. Which I shouldn't have to say is messed up.
If you think about it, humanity is always getting smarter, because of natural selection. The dumbest of the dumbest will die, and the smartest will live and reproduce, and this chain will continue for hundreds of years until humans will be unbelievably smart to a limit.
Say what you want but gym bros are some of the kindest, most helpful people I've ever met. Whenever my overweight ass is doing something wrong or trying to figure out how a machine works, they always jump in in the middle of their workout session to make sure I have a pretty good understanding of what I'm doing and don't do anything stupid and hurt myself.
actually, ‘going to jail for staring at an under aged 21 year old’ is such a perfect representation of how people these days are desperate to manipulate a situation to fit their narrative
@@KfcOwner until you meet that woman who runs on all fours like some kind of native American skin walker. If you don't know what I am talking about just Google girl runs like a horse
@@KfcOwner I wish I could just watch and kick ALL the drama queens and ones dressing like sluts or videoing out of the gym STRAIGHT UP. ANY shenanigans of female drama, your photo is taken, you're put on a blacklist and booted from ALL GYMS the have men. If they're serious they can go to the female only gyms. But MOST are going because they ARE CHASING MALE ATTENTION and looking for a man. They literally have videos about it on tiktok. Men avoid their usual spots so they dress in leggings and a bikini to attract a man.
Not just Tiktok itself, but this entire "tiktoker" era has let so many terrible people get undeserved attention. We live in an age where narcissism isn't just accepted, it's borderline encouraged. It's nice that a few people get called out on their shit, but this happens way too damn much.
The people in the gym either do things to purposely get attention like slam weights, scream, stunts, or wear extremely tight clothing, or are literally doing nothing at all, staring at their phones. How hard is it to leave your phone in the car, go to the gym with a written plan, execute the plan, and leave within an hour and a half? America is so obese, and its people's attitudes that are having the biggest impact on health and fitness in general.
I'm gonna sound crazy but as far as I know I'm speaking the truth and even have evidence for my claims if it's needed by anyone to look it up and see for themselves, but that's because tiktok is a literal Chinese info weapon used to make the west's youth dumber and less effective adults 😅 In China, their tiktok shows science, art, and just overall just learning and creative stuff, but we are shown that you can be "famous" for being a bad person who wastes food, hurts others, ect. and they don't even make any real money from it all. They are taught to be assholes for moneyless clout by tiktok. Tiktok really needs to go the way of vine asap.
The real creepy part is the fact that these people likely spent hours analyzing every behavior of these random people that they’ve secretly recorded. This should honestly be a crime
Fun fact.. if you're not participating in Social Media you will never know they do that. It's like a conversation they have in their head. It doesn't matter, lol.
I've taken locker room selfies for my progress before, but it just feels like common courtesy to make sure nobody is in the frame. I'm usually the only person in the locker room at the hours I go, so it's not a big deal. It's common courtesy to not include other people in your pictures and videos unless they consent to it.

I'm 19, 5'4 f. Walking out the gym yesterday and as I turn to close the door, this guy, easily a foot taller than me and like, a wall of muscle is walking behind and hes pretty close, so I hold open the door. He gives me the goofiest smile and tells me his arms r dead so thanks. Best interaction I've had. Just gotta give people a chance man
As a dude who goes to the gym occasionally, my eyes focus on movement. That’s why I’m looking at ppl. I’m not checking them out, I literally just focus on movement because that’s how eyes work
I can get very paranoid being worried about strangers, but one of the best conversations I've ever had was with a random homeless guy at a bus stop. We talked about life, our favorite animals, how the fare system is sorta garbage, and how the school system fails in lots of ways. He was really nice, but clearly struggled with substance abuse and I hope he's doing better now.
Well I think that taking photos in the gym while you pose is a good thing so that you can track your progress and gives you more self esteem, of course always with respect of others
@Jackson Miller it is scary though. You can't even have your own opinion online without risk of people trying to cancel you. Imagine you're out with friends just messing around and one of you makes a joke that with no other context seems extremely offensive or in poor taste, that gets recorded and spread around. I've seen people lose thier job over less.
Here’s a story as to how TikTok has consumed people: in my previous job, there were two female colleagues, one was about 19 and other 17, who decided to film themselves dancing and put it on the site. They kept trying to perfect the dance. They were aware I was watching them and they weren’t being bitches about it, but they told me I was making them feel awkward and they said it very politely so I went and looked for something to do while they danced (this was about 20 minutes before we left so there wasn’t much to do anyway). I just felt it was strange that one dude they knew and trusted made them feel weird yet they were desperate to film a dance for thousands of strangers to see.
I hate how Tik Tok trends turn polite and genuine people into creeps, and the whole mess discourages people from interacting with someone for fear of being ridiculed or accused of harassment. this is a whole new level of bullying and I REALLY hate it
The Kingdom of God is at Hand John 3:16 King James Version 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
This be why us guys gotta be super duper extra careful these days. One woman lies or falsely accuses us and we’re done for. These days nobody waits for due process like with Johnny Depp and just assume guilt because you’re a man.
I even heard about a blind guy that was accused of staring at a gym. After he told her and the one of the staff members that he wasn't staring because he was blind they were still outraged.
The Blind Surfer Pete Gustin? He recounted a story like this, said he even presented them with proof he's blind (some sort of ID card IIRC), and the manager said something like "well you still can't make people uncomfortable by staring at them". When he literally cannot even tell if he's staring at someone.
As a guy that has been slim but mostly lean his whole life and active as far as running and push ups..whatnot, and wants to go to the gym to improve my physique for my own self esteem. I also have ADHD so I look around just aimlessly, and I have social anxiety, both of these paired together and seeing how I already feel awkward af getting caught glancing or looking in someone's general direction and I don't wanna be called a creep or deemed a "weirdo" bc I look around lol. I am also very helpful if I see someone's struggling I would of course if I could spot the weight then spot them, then I would walk away male or female but I would be apprehensive bc of stuff like this.
it really doesn't tho,all its doing is pointing out the chronically online women that want attention. how would someone that's actualy a creep get taken less seriously
Can we all just acknowledge the irony of being "creeped out" by some guy at the gym, while simultaneously sharing your entire life online to who knows how many creepers
@@vlisto3712 No it's not, Its even worse. She literally sells her body, how is that different? She over here concerned about the "male gaze" yet she post pics for exactly that.
“This is why I don’t want kids.” “Natural selection better take the weirdos out!” She’s already playing her part by not bringing more of her kind into the world.
It’s so crazy how they literally think they’re so important that everyone is just staring at them and every small thing is trying to hit on them like.. 😭
This happened to me once at the gym when I was still a newbie. A very old male was looking at me as I was using some equipment, and ofc I was weirded out. After about 5 minutes of occasionally watching me work out, he came over and told me “you’re doing it wrong” and showed me the proper technique. I was grateful because I didn’t get hurt from using the equipment wrong. Seriously, sometimes men just want to help out.
@Anthony Fernandez Mansplaining is where men automatically assume a woman doesn’t know something without any evidence to support that assumption and proceeds to explain in detail often in a condescending manner without bothering to ask if they want/need said explanation. The OP in this case did show that they didn’t know what they were doing therefore the man going over to correct it is not mansplaining. You actually have to be pretty obnoxious in order to qualify for the mansplaining category.
@@MissCaraMint see the difference is that YOU understand that term and use it correctly while others don’t. So he’s actually right in this case. Just look at all the other terms that get used now where ppl don’t even know the real meaning behind them but blatantly uses them lol
Another thing both Joey and Charlie haven’t brought up is that these people might have whole ass stands, lights, duffel bags, and some may even have cameras instead of a phone. Having a whole ass movie set for your lifts is going to bring attention to you.
@@nymade4130 This. These types of people act like people simply looking in their general direction is a crime, yet seem to go out of their way to be the biggest attention grabber in a 100-mile radius. Clothes are never an excuse for actually bad behavior, but if you're wearing the bare minimum with a full-on movie setup around you in a public place, people are gonna look in your general direction from time to time, and that's not a crime.
Another thing i don't get is why they need to wear the tightest cloth possible. Like DUH a guy might glance at you. Those women shouldn't be allowed to wear that to a gym. Imagine a guy wearing such tight shorts . Guys also just want to focus without having visual distraction right in front of them.
Hope this shows to men that women do not f*ck around when they say they don't feel safe around certain places. This is exactly the type of crap they have to deal with (of course not justifying her actions, just pointing out the obvious).
@@vorza2988 what? Not hard to get. What she did there to that guy happens x10000 to women around public places, especially bathrooms. I don’t want to hear dudes saying they exaggerate because one lady on this video decided to do something extremely stupid.

I feel embarrassed even when I have my camera faced toward me for a Snapchat response .. I don’t get how people are able to just openly film other people .. they are the gym creeps for doing that.
I agree with you on the feeling of getting someone filmed just because they happen to be there, but at the end of the day a gym is a common area, depends on the rules of each gym you can record there. On the other hand the "social media gym culture" has derived from what it actually is
Agree with the weird feeling. The only time I have felt using a camera is fine is your bud like filming a pr or something for form. Usually it’s toward the rack with no one else in the shot or with no focus of anyone else. It’s a weird fad that has come up now.
I doubt millions but yeah. I don’t understand her outlook tbh cause I’m afraid of ppl looking at me at the gym so I just do at home workouts were no one can judge me. That said, that’s kind of a privilege especially if you do strength training.
@@hhasnohope8488 dude/dudette, literally nobody judges anybody on the gym, excluding this tick tock weirdos, every gym bro is happy to see people too skinny or too fat going to the gym and making and effort to regain shape. Trust me, is all in your mind.
It’s so bad that when going shopping when I look around it feels like I have to look away otherwise I have a chance of getting told I am staring by some pick me boy/girl
The irony of shaming people looking at their ass in the gym while also shoving their ass in the camera and then posting it for thousands too see is crazy
As someone with social anxiety, this is the kind of stuff I think always goes through people's heads if I ever acknowledge their existence with a glance. Knowing that there are people out there like this makes it worse for me
I'm with you on that! Worries me everytime I make eye contact with someone! "Do they think I was staring at them when I just glanced over? Do they think I'm a creep now cause of that?!"
same, i might have a problem as i do it so much i unknowingly avoid looking people in the eyes when i talk to them. or is that normal?, i dont know anymore.
I used to be like that, i kind of still am, but in the end overthinking stuff like this is just gonna drive you insane. In the end you can't control what people think of you, you don't know how their head works, so why bother? Look people in the eyes Smile when you greet them Speak clearly so they can hear It's perfectly normal, in fact it's the bare minnimum. And if someone has a problem with it it's their fault.
@@bobthespam I am sort of like that. Not when someone is talking to me or me them, because I've always been in the belief that eye contact comes with talking. But otherwise I avoid looking at people.
After working at a gym for 13 years, these people have always existed. They’re just able to film it to an audience now. The “I want all the attention, but I don’t want people looking at me” people. Lol
@@adrianc6534 What do you think is the more likely possibility: Literally half of the human race is genetically inclined towards this behaviour or Youve had a few bad experiences with women and are bitter and resentful and so extrapolate those experiences onto billions?
2:57 ngl that’s the reason I do stare at a wall or at the ground cause you just never know who’s gonna take it too personal and me who’s slightly over weight and trying to work on myself feels so uncomfortable at times
This is why I am so self aware and always wear sunglasses outdoors, because when I look at people just like a normal human being with awareness of his surroundings, I feel like I am actually bothering them.
No he is actually shredded hard to guess his body fat % but it’s definitely at the leaner end ripped means lean which means low body fat % how you gonna say not really ripped I wonder how ripped you are Mauricio
Stuff like this pisses me off because real harassment is still a thing. Some gyms will inevitably have creepy people. Setting up fake scenarios for clout does nothing but laugh in the face of people's actual experiences.
Yeah, it’s this horrid trend we’ve reached of people online essentially fantasising about being SA/SH victims and making up these wildly exaggerated situations in their head, but also POSTING THEM ONLINE? Like how braindead and insulting can you be?
i agree. i have tourettes and i feel the same for those shitty petty clout chasers faking having tourettes making it a funny matter when its not. it made my life hell as a kid in school i always got fucked with. and for people to fake it and laugh on camera for fame and attention just realy makes my blood boil
It’s more weird that she’s talking to herself. He was probably wondering who she was talking to or if she was talking to him. Plus some of the stuff she was whispering like “feral, feral, feral, f*cking feral” absolutely would garner some attention from anyone within hearing distance. Not to mention that but anyone filming kinda gets your attention anyway because you wonder what they’re doing, if you’re in the shot, etc.
lol they will post their workout videos on social media for millions to see but get uncomfortable when someone at the gym literally only takes a glare at them 😂
As a woman who likes to go to the gym from time to time, these women are doing nothing but making it harder for us. Now I have to be afraid that I may need help, and the men around me would be too afraid, because I might call them creeps afterwards.

@@BigCarris_53_64 she's not, u misunderstood the comment. she's not saying that she's going to call them a creep, she's saying that the women who post these kinds of videos make the men in her gym feel as if she would say that when just being friendly/helping.

@@infinitymixtapes9562 Agreed. It's annoying that the OP got so many likes. A man is the victim in this situation yet women are somehow still the first priority lol.
The thing I find mind boggling in these situations is that the people say they are uncomfortable with being observed, yet the majority have a camera pointed directly at their behind.
This is why i only work out at home and if i do cardio i pick routes where its very unlikely i will see other people, i get way to much anxiety from things like this to go to a gym. Its unfortunate that these things happen but id rather have slower progress and be 100% certain ill never be in some tik tok
Even small glances are creepy? Imagine how horrible it'd be if they were filming them without their consent or even knowledge, that'd be awful. Wait...
As an introverted man with low self esteem and issues of that nature, videos like this scare me. I’m 6’2, when I’m walking alone on the sidewalk and I see a woman walking the same direction as me I will cross the street or make as much distance as I can. I still get stared down like they think I’m gonna do something. Making women “feel safe” is an active job for me, I fear that I will get falsely accused for nothing. All it takes is one woman to get the wrong idea or lie and it’s all over for me. In a way it has made me really scared to meet new women.
