A short YouTube monologue (Anwar White, May 14, 2024) advising women on how to start conversations with men in the gym without feeling like they have to 'make the first move.' The speaker offers specific example lines (compliments, asking for help with weights/technique) and suggests observing how the man responds to gauge interest.
Adina says, I want to find a man in the gym, but as a woman, I'm not supposed to make the first move.
You can. There's a variety of different things that you can do when you're out and about. Right.
First of all.
This first move concept.
You don't want to make the first move, but please understand, ladies, that you can start a conversation. You can say, hi. You can give them a compliment in the gym. If I were in the gym, girl, you see these little nothings? Girl, see that nothing? Girl. Girl, I need help putting the weights on. Girl, I need help under getting my technique together. This is what I would be asking the boys, the boys that I want to really talk to. Yeah. And if they give you the time, then they're probably interested in you. Because most people at the gym about their business and in and out. Right. Most guys will help you. Yeah. So this is how I would start a conversation with the guy and see how he drives it, see how he moves forward with it.
