Hi. Girl who wrote the original confession about feeling uncomfortable in the gym, here. And while I personally know some of you guys who responded to my confession, I must admit that I'm disappointed. I'm sorry that I'm uncomfortable when guys point out my ass to their buddies. I'm sorry that guys whistle at me to get my attention. Forgive me for wanting to run on the treadmill while the guy next to me can't take his eyes off my breasts. It doesn't make me feel desirable! It makes me feel like a scrap of meat and I'm NOT sorry for that.

If you want to make excuses for people (men or women) with filthy minds, go ahead if that makes you feel better. But shame on you guys for discounting the actual offense I feel when guys watch me in an uncomfortable way. If they have gross thoughts, whatever. I don't care. But blatantly expressing them on their own faces is crossing the line. Some guys at Fox are pervs. Get over it.
Also, don't you dare tell me that Fox is better than the "real world." Is Fox not real? Are the Fox students the pure little angels? Heck no. Wherever you have man you have the real world.

I don't make fun of any of you posters for your thoughts/emotions. And yet you make fun of a stranger's? That's a lack of compassion. We're Fox students, we SHOULD be a better student body than this, regardless. But we're not. This page really brings out the worst in people... or perhaps it's just revealing people's true ideas?

So, yeah. Rip me to shreds for defending myself and admitting that the gym sometimes is an uncomfortable place for me to be. I'm sorry that I hit such a sore topic for you.

Sincerely, the girl.

Today as I watched the football team running I catcalled them and I felt really bad afterwards... so I just wanted to apologize if I made anyone feel sexualized in any way...

I have no idea how I'm going to make rent next month. I already work full time only to have my money taken by gas and school. None of my friends or family would loan me money... I'm actually considering performing sexual favors for money.

I wake up every day, walk to the mirror, and force myself to see something beautiful. It never works. I am ugly. I hate my face, my hair, my smile. I hate that I'm not considered obese, but I'm still not accepted because I have chub on my stomach. I hate the flesh on my thighs and my big feet. I hate that I can't slip on a dress and feel on top of the world. I hate that I eat my feelings away instead of working out because I'm embarrassed. I hate that the culture I grew up in appreciates the natural curves of a woman and this one doesn't. I hate when people look at me and say "girl you're not fat!" I know they are saying this to make me feel better. If I was so fearfully and wonderfully made, why is it so hard to believe in? Most guys care about size. Some guys don't even want to be friends with girls who are ugly. Looks do matter and I wish people would stop saying they don't. These are my daily thoughts. I hate everything about myself. I hate that I'm always the fuck buddy and not the relationship material. I hate that I'm not outgoing. Don't judge me because this is my confession and I need to vent.

So, Theres this girl that I've started messaging on Facebook. I think she is awesome and she's absolutely stunning. From what we have talked about in our messages we have a lot in common but i don't know where to go from here. I want to get to know her and hangout with her but I've been hurt to much and I'm shy I'm not really sure what I should do.

To be honest as a guy the only time I see attractive women is at the gym. I don't stare at them but that is literally the only time I see women that are attractive. I have had bad luck with my classes and have very few girls in them.

I'm not a christian, I don't practice any religion, but you have no idea what I'd give to be back at my home church.
I'm a black guy, raised christian, which means our services were generally exposed to a VERY different style of gospel music. Makes chapel and the other churches around here sound like they're trying to sing Jesus a lullaby.
Now I've only been to about 3 chapel services thus far, but if I could suggest attempting to put together a large choir and getting a new roster of more joyous and upbeat songs and some decent choir directors, it'd definitely make chapel a lot more fun for me as a heathen and for you all as believers. I'd be money on it.

I'm glad someone wrote a confession standing up for the girl feeling uncomfortable at the gym. I know I'm not the only one who feels this way, but I feel like there is way too much hostility on this page, and I really feel sorry for a lot of the OPs who get attacked or made fun of. We don't know people's circumstances or what they are going through in life outside of that one confession. Everyone has struggles that we don't know about, and if that isn't a good enough reason to be kind to everyone you meet and talk to I don't know what is.
