It might be like that in the USA too, I can't say, I've never been there.

You can see that it has already damaged CCS's mind (probably beyond repair.)
We do have some people in the UK who only see other people as a score out of 10, but those people are generally considered "creepy"; the behaviour isn't lauded or normal.
Something to take note of CCS, as people have already said, your lack of luck with women isn't down to your looks, I bet you come off to people as creepy, just like this guy probably did. I see it all the time, I know a 5'5", 15+ stone NW6 guy (seriously) who is fine with women. He doesn't get the bleached blonde "health and beauty" clones, but then he doesn't want that type of girl (neither do I) He does it because he's a funny guy to be around, and he doesn't worry about whether he minoxed his eyebrows before going out.
This dude's blog is scarily similar to CCS's ramblings and it gives us an insight into CCS's mind.

Although you may joke about CCS, you would be surprised at how many people actually think just like him. I admit that he is obsessive about it but he is not getting this stuff out of thin air.
dudemon said:For one thing, the shooter was basing his judgements on people and on girls (women) he saw in the gym.
Everybody knows that a lot of women in gyms (not ALL, but a lot of them) are very stuck-up. They only converse with other people in there that are physically equal in attractiveness to themselves.
A lot of women in gyms are self-centered, and think their sh*t doesn't stink. They only talk to the most buffed guys in there, and only with other very hot girls. Everybody else is insignificant to them, and they ignore them (like the shooter).
I know, because I have seen MANY women in several gyms that I have worked out in over the years, and they are EXACTLY as I have described here. I have seen it first-hand.
The same applies to a lot of guys in the gym as well, if you aren't "buffed" they ignore you because you are "insignificant" to them. Nothing you do will impress them, until you start getting buffed. Then some of the buffed guys might start talking to you, but not until you "prove" yourself.
I think the gym shooter didn't understand these things. I do, becuase I am 40 and I have worked out in gyms off and on since I was 12 years old.
Further, a lot of girls in the gym become snobs and stuck-up, once they lose some weight, and start looking "hot." they know they're hot, and they will diss their old friends in the gym (who are not so hot) and will converse ONLY with the hotties in the gym. Again, I have seen this happen first-hand.

Thats weird, i dont see any of that in my gym, people are more or less normal and treat each other with respect. In fact, the biggest guys at my gym are really nice to newbies and are always willing to chat and help out. How do i know? It's happened to me. Im not even trying to get into an argument just sayin'
cuebald said:Where I'm from (Britain), the gyms I've been to (which are the larger, State run gyms) are usually full of 1) middle aged, slightly podgy people trying to lose some weight, 2) 16-21 year old skinny lads trying to put on some muscle.
I don't see any of this bizarre pulling culture in what is essentially a sweaty room filled with machines :dunno:
The real beefcakes go to the lesser known alleyway gyms/boxing clubs.

Yeah same here and I have been too like a few gyms. I am british btw.
Most people mind their own business, but saying that I have never been hit on at a gym, like ever.
In the US, most gyms are "meat markets" where 80% of the people are just "maintaining" their level of fitness, but a lot of them are primarily there to "hook up." It is like a dance club, where everyone is essentially "on display."
Oknow said:Yeah I can imagine, my uncle who lives in LAs tells me they are like that. Man the US sounds like such a shallow superficial place. Wouldn't like to live there.
dudemon said:Oknow said:Yeah same.
Is dudemon planning on going on a killingspree?
OMFG! :mrgreen:
I knew somebody was going to compare me to the shooter. I just knew it! :mrgreen:
Anyways, man, i mean come-on be real.

Well, I can tell you either haven't been to many gyms or haven't been working out for very long.
You may already know a lot of people in the gym (from your school or wherever) so, it's possible they all seem "normal" to you and treat each other with respect because you are all friends to begin with outside of the gym.
Try moving far away and going to a gym where you know NOBODY and are a complete stranger. Perhaps you might see things in a different light. I have done this several times over the years.
In ALL of the gyms I have been in, the big guys don't want to be bothered unless by hot women. Or, unless with other younger guys who have "proved" themselves, and they are "taking them under their wing."
But as far a "being nice to newbies" they are more likely to be "nice" to girl newbies from what I've seen than guy newbies.
Some big buffed dudes are "egotistical' to the point that they get their rocks off on being able to "give advice." They are more or less doing it for themselves rather than to actually help someone out. If they can be "seen giving advice" to the wimpy dorks in there, the hotties will see them as "sensitive" and as "real" men.
Can you see where this is going? :dunno:
