Profanity in the gym

So I was working out a few days ago, and a bunch of guys in the gym were saying "F*ck" all over the place. That really got to be annoying.

Oh, sure. I'm sure that these guys were old friends. And the probably figured "Hey, you've only got men in this room. It should be okay." If so, then they didn't realize that not all men appreciate foul language. And what if a woman were to pass by? I realize that some women do tolerate such speech, and that some of them can even swear like a sailor. A lot of them don't, though.

It wasn't just that the language was foul. It was that they kept using the word over and over and over again. Not good conduct in public. They've got to learn some basic gym etiquette.

They have got to learn to behave.
