I think that’s a bit dishonest. Revealing and sexualizing clothes like that are obviously going to be distracting. Hell, plenty of straight women could admit to be distracted by it.

It's exercise-wear, the human body is not shameful, it's not everyone else's job to prevent your horniness from being a problem! It's like judging people at the beach for wearing revealing clothing, grow the fuck up!

I didn’t say “shameful”, I said distracting. Human sexuality codes us to take an interest in other people. That’s fine in social contexts, of which going to the beach is basically one. But when people are visiting the gym for a task, taking targeted actions to distract them from it is just rude.

It’s also true that some people’s bare bodies are less appealing to look at. (That can include mine! I don’t mind admitting it) You’re setting a standard that can only ever work for attractive people.

Yes, old ugly wrinkly people will walk around in skimpy clothing and so will everyone else. Idk what puritan gyms you guys are going to but you're supposed to get really sweaty when you work out which is the task oriented reason people where minimal clothes, like at the beach or the pool. The greeks used to do the Olympics butt naked, not for porn or orgy, but because it was the most comfortable way to compete rather than run a relay race in a toga.
