Personally, for myself, as well as other fellas I have gone to the gym with, there hasn't been a self concious element of women staring. We love it. It boosts our confidence and makes us lift harder. It should be an ingredient in a PWO supplement. It made one of my friends put on too many plates and almost get himself killed, but that is his own fault (He had a spotter, and no it wasn't me ;P).

Good to hear its doing no harm, lol I shall continue staring with a clear conscience.
Aw, bad spotters. Had one of those, but to her defence I shouldnt have asked her to spot, as I knew she probably wouldnt have been able to help me. I was doing squats, and fell right on my bum. And my spotter just leapt out of the way. Didnt hurt as much as the burning shame of tipping over mid-squat though :/

Nothing shameful, you were doing squats, there is no shame in squats! Tipping over on to your bum with the pink dumbbells would be shameful.
I face planted doing squats a week ago (got dizzy, which turned out to be due to a developing sinus infection). Bar hitting the uprights then the safety rails got everyone in that half of the gym looking. All I could really think about it was, hell at least it was enough weight to get their attention when it hit.Now cutting: Got a little more squishy than I wanted, heading down to 160lbs and seeing how things look.

Yeah, I'm a special kind of dumb. I unloaded the bar, put it back on the rack then set it back up and got my 5 reps. Then added another 20 and got 3 of the 5 I wanted before I got dizzy again and had to set that down on the safeties.
That was when I finally admitted something wasn't right.Now cutting: Got a little more squishy than I wanted, heading down to 160lbs and seeing how things look.
