Weight Training And Sexism….?

ok … im of course a woman wanting to join in a weight training class.
so i was wondering if there was a rule against doing that in a high school class. i really want to take this class for my own well-being.
my shoulder muscle keeps hurting unless i do some exercise and i know that i have other options but i didnt want to spend wasted minutes at home trying to do things i don’t actually know how to..
please answer… oh and one more thing … have you ever joined a weight training class in high school before? What was it like?
Thank You
p.s. just to let you know im gay…. so i wont be hitting on any boys in the weight room, if i do go… ^-^

    If the class is not listed as being for male students only then it is not. Take the course. You want the information that the class teaches. Did the first woman that went to Harvard law school feel a bit out of place? Probably. Was it worth is? Yes.
    Besides I don’t think you are the only woman at your school that wants to take the course. Many probably just push the notion aside since they feel they wouldn’t fit in.

    I took weight training when I was in high school so I don’ think that they will stop you from taking it. & I’m a lesbian to so don’t worry about that @ all ’cause I was “playing” w/ one of the girls in class
