About a week ago, sticking to my workout schedule, I was in the gym. In my hometown the woman to man ratio in the weight room is basically equal. However, in a college town, especially one where women are particularly objectified by their health, I get some pretty strange looks while picking up the 20-pound weights and claiming my position in front of the mirror. The only woman in a sea of testosterone.
