Immoral to own a Gym today?

Quote from: Tiffany
There are gyms only for ladies.


Is modesty on display there or are the ladies merely tightening up the select group of muscles that men ogle?

Before I "reverted" to the Catholic Faith (grew up typical, lax Novus Ordo), I was a personal fitness trainer.  It was very problematic in many ways.

You can avoid the immodesty by going only to the dog gyms.


It's a little noisy, but you get used to it.

Gyms are one of the least immoral places to own.  People generally don't go to gyms to make fornication dates.  My experience is that people rush to the gym to fit a work out into a busy schedule. People don't intentionally dress immodestly, either.  Perhaps that is the case by traditional catholic standards, but by society's standards, no.  Exercise and a healthy diet is a positive thing.  "Cult of the body" is far removed from a healthy lifestyle.

If you owned a gym, you can set the tone by having a dress code for your employees - no skin tight clothes.  Successful gyms are often segregated by sex, too.  Women often want to work out without the pressure of men around.  Men often have different exercise needs and desires such as free weights and less cardio.

If you want to see an immoral place, try a public school or college.  Shopping malls are also chock full of scandal.

Simply have a dress code and enforce it. Have a good attorney draft up a constitution requiring a modest dress code in the membership contract which will be signed by patrons. This way, you can't be sued for "discrimination".
