"If there are two complementary machines that men should not use at the gym, it’s the hip abduction and reduction machines. Why is it so necessary that you tone your thighs? It’s because you wanted to look great in your swimsuit at Beach Week, right? Or because your favorite sundress was feeling a little too tight there? I didn’t think so. You don’t belong on those machines. Stay off them." —Abbi Sigler of University of Virginia student newspaper the Cavalier Daily, helpfully drawing gender lines at the campus gym to ensure that men refrain from feminine exercise. Pro tip: "men’s stretching should be particularly nonchalant."
"Sometimes, you spot a girl in Man Land. When I do I think, 'Wow! That girl’s intense and really jacked! You go girl!' Maybe the guys view this interloper differently, but I give her props." — Sigler on the brave women who dare to cross the gender lines she invented.
