    from the other site:

    Creepy is mostly men, wet is mostly women.

    When it's mostly men you're just one of many (men) and only the truely creepy guys are considered creepy.

    The higher the ratio of women the lower the bar for creepiness drops.

    If your gym is very wet just looking around might already be considered creepy. Rules 1 and 2 apply.

    Isnt wet wet because women can sometimes release some bodily fluids when they are struggling, for example in the gym?

    Ok but women sometimes pee themselves because of certain anatomical differences when working out. Idk if thats what "wet" was trying to convey tho

    Women do not urinate due to working out. The slang term wet refers to vaginal lubrication which occurs when women are aroused. I can't actually believe I'm typing this out, or that you are a presumably adult male who doesn't know basic human anatomy.

    I thought this was a more well known thing and i didnt know the name of it. I didnt say it with any ill-intentions. Ive asked my family members before and they said it was especially common amongst women who had children. I tried to phrase it in a way that didnt offend anyone but i guess i did the opposite. Ive also heard other people say pretty mean things to women about this so i guessed thats what wet could mean.

    Heres a link i found to what i was referring to: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/stress-incontinence/symptoms-causes/syc-20355727

    Apparently a creepy gym is mostly men and a wet gym is mostly women.

    That’s a weird way to describe the latter

    Yea but the creepy vs wet is funnier than "based and cringe" there are no definitions on what creepy and wet mean. It's an AI making a random meme slop

    It’s apparently an AI-generated copypasta that is based word for word on an actual 4chan post about a gym being based or cringe, but the AI just replaced based with creepy and cringe with wet.

    Wet gyms are usually in basements and on subfloors. Creepy gyms have racketball courts.

    My gym is pretty balanced: 50% weird dudes, 48% ugly sheilas, 2% unsupervised, clueless, literal children who should absolutely not be there.
