Something tells me there will still be plenty of lust.
Personal experience with the Christian-cult: mentally-ill individuals who refuse medical help corralled by narcissistic abusers. Being mentally-ill they make disastrous life-decisions creating hell-on-earth for their progeny. You people are clowns. My disdain for you can not be overstated. Your pastas are narcissists. Stop re-reading the same book that’s been repeatedly translated through the eons into different languages–with more edits than any Wikipedia article–hoping you’ll find an esoteric cure to soothe your self-loathing. You won’t. Leave your cult. Find medical help.
From the outside it appears these people are walking contradictions: they’re the most hateful people you’ll meet, yet they preach goodness to all men. Once religion was decoupled from the state it became a voluntary institution. The cults of Christianity attract self-loathing individuals who feel they need an external structure to keep them in line. That’s why you find so many pedophiles in these cults. They’re mentally ill.
Cults should be taxed. Doomsday-cults with a sole focus on expansion (like the cults of Christianity) should be disbanded by force. Healthcare is a human right. States should be providing appropriate care for the mentally-ill. Education is a human right too and cults are a road-block in the state’s pursuit of a universal education.
A daily reminder for Australian comrades: Sanitarium is the for profit arm of a doomsday-cult. Do not fund them through the purchase of their products. Do not buy Weet-Bix™, Up & Go™, etc… Advocate for cults to be taxed.
Cults have flourished here. They’re dangerous and degenerative to society. https://www.theguardian.com/film/2017/feb/13/the-family-great-white-brotherhood-australia-melbourne-cult-anne-hamilton-byrne
From their flock are selected the most deranged for political office. From their financing we get absolute mongrels in politics, like the insipid Scott Morrison: holder of every privilege, but never accountable. Shirking every responsibility placed on him. He would not hold a hose if you were on fire. He’d watch you burn; he’d do everything to not do anything whilst sending thoughts and prayers; he’d then go on a holiday and bill the tax-payer for it and removed that people didn’t want to shake his hand.
It’s time to put a stop to all these demented cults. Never entertain them. The Catholic cult drains our coffers. Tell them to fuck off.
Closeted Christians be like: ah fuck
they gonna be brojaculating all over the change rooms. on the plus side, everyone gets a good feed of protein in male only gyms.
I can’t be decent and resist my urges. So lets all get together in a setting where I can live out my urges with those with the same genitalia.
They’re either super gay or someone needs to check their hard drives.
Porque no los dos?
We should congratulate them, it’s hard to be straight when you are that gay.
It’s sad that seeking out like minded people who share your values and hobbies is to be mocked. Men go, create a gym for other guys to enjoy a space where they can work on themselves and not to oggle women is a bad thing?
It’s worrying that these people need a separate gym because they are unable to control their urges. Seems like they have bigger problems they should be working on tbh.
They are working on it. They literally have a way of working on it. Great empathy you have.
Teaching my kids how to act normal by taking them to MAN GYM where half the people there are taking steroids to bulk up and the other half don’t know how to talk about anything but GETTING PUMPED
So what do they do once they are outside of the “safe” gym? If you need a separate workout space because women are around you in gym clothes then you’re going to struggle a lot in the rest of your life. Do they need separate beaches, swimming pools, have to stay at home during the summer months?
I’d suggest counselling with a professional would be better use of their time.
For some religious people, lust is a hard sin to fight. A gym can be a tough place to ignore it. It’s not hard to understand some people like some time in a place where people understand their struggles and can blow off steam without feeling judged.

For some religious people, lust is a hard sin to fight.
That line of thinking is what leads to burquas being mandatory in some countries.
Control yourself, not other people.
And if you can’t, then get proper help (not a preacher), don’t just mask the problem.
For some religious people, lust is a hard sin to fight.
For a lot of atheists too, ayyyyyyyyyy (eggplant emoji eggplant emoji eggplant emoji)
So what do they do about summertime, beaches, or swimming pools? How does this lust manifest itself? They have to go over and talk to the women in the gym and say inappropriate things?
I get these men have issues with their ability to control themselves, I’m suggesting that a private gym isn’t the solution given how many other times in their life they will be “tested”. And why is this specific to religious people? What’s religion doing to them that getting them this sexually frustrated they can’t share a gym?
The idea women are holding these dorks back from exercising is so dumb to me. Humans spent like 80,000 years using unsegregated toilets. But now in the year of our lord 2026 we need to stock two gyms with identical, redudnant exercise equipment because what if dudes are distracted?
At least have the intellectual decency of citing a research paper before demanding a reallocation of society’s gym equipment over what is almost certainly a socialization problem by some of the most superstitious people in society.
You’re missing two things:
- The point
- More downvotes
God willing, I’ll get both.
Hell, it doesn’t even need to be able “resisting urges”. I’d be more behind a guys-only gym where I’m less likely to end up in some random chick’s social media session.
Yes, guys do the social media crap too but at least in my experience they tend towards places that don’t involve broadcasting everyone else (except maybe the dudes with the creep glasses, fuck them). I’m tired of having to dodge some glam-girl who has decided to make the beach, park, gym or whatever her personal studio and including me or my kids as unwilling participants in their narcissism.
I seem to recall that the very same passage in their Bible that condemns lust as thoughtcrime also prescribes a remedy—and it’s to gouge out your own leering eyes, not bar women from public spaces.
You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lust has already committed adultery with her in his heart. If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away; it is better for you to lose one of your members than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.
not bar women from public spaces.
This isn’t barring women from public places, it’s a private establishment for men only. I think people are mainly upset about it because of how they pitched it.
If they just pitched it as a men only gym without any other reason, this probably wouldn’t be post worthy.
There are plenty of women only gyms within a 30 minute drive of where I used to live (a more metro area). Nothing to care about.
Holy fuck, the Bible is fucked up, man. No amount of slasher films can compete with this level of crazy
Thanks for the bible verse, the next time I get asked why I’m not religious, I’ll use “I don’t want to gouge out my own eyes” as the reason. I also don’t want to whip slaves, but I think they removed that after the old testament
God approves and disapproves of slavery in both the new testament and old testament. Also in matthew 5:17-20 Jesus very clearly states that the old testament is to be followed. So even if the new testament did not include what seems to be approval of slavery, it would still not matter. But the bible also disapproves of slavery. If you want a whole lot of stuff you can quote on what you do not want to do, I would suggest looking up the skeptics annotated bible. They make some great collections.
the bible offers regulations for slavery but i can’t find any verse prohibiting all forms of slavery the closest is Exodus 21:16 which just says male slaves are wrong
Matthew 5:17 Do not think that I have come to loosen the law or the prophets. I have not come to loosen, but to fulfill.
Cheers! Just grabbed the EPUB of the KJV. 20 pages in and I’m hooked
Don’t do it bro you’ll end up gouging your eyes out at a gay gym or some shit
I’d like to point out that King James himself had more than one male lover, in case this is anywhere near remotely serious
its a metaphor…

I’m not having gay sex? I’m hiding my penis safely inside this Christian man’s asshole so that women can’t get to it unless they are my wife.
What makes a man a man? That’s right, a penis. So, therefore, two penises are more manly than one penis.
That’s just maths and logic. And you can’t argue with maths and logic!!
“That and a pair of testicles…”
That’s the vibe I’m getting as well.
AI slop but I believe this is the one thing AI can get away with, at least in my books. But fuck AI.
“Sanctuary gyms for repressed gay men are booming”
Seriously. Who needs a gym when you have lust?
Grindr hotspot.
Theyre gonna learn a lot about themselves
… with their socks on of course.
Gyms are becoming breeding grounds for white supremacists and the proud boys. Probably more about indoctrination than learning.
What’s funny is they complain about gender change hormones but shoot tons of testosterone in their thighs because they are too afraid to become feminine.
The lead tainted protein powder doesnt help, im sure.
We are all just one stroke or lead poisoning away from be racist assholes.
A gym is the only place a Christian ever tried to recruit me for his Bible study group.
They already know and being in that environment will only make their hatred, which is projected as hatred of lgbtq+ but is actually self hatred, even stronger.
