Whether the amount of harassment is less or more than other settings is completely irrelevant. If a place exists where women can be harassed less, are they not entitled to it? Why should they have to put up with any harassment.

You will see a few guys hit on girls from time to time, but that doesn't mean it is sexual harassment and it isn't really prevalent.
And maybe girls don't want to be hit on when they go to the gym, and a lot of these meatheads don't seem to get that. It doesn't help when the girl will clearly make it obvious she's not interested and the dude won't leave her alone, and yes I've seen it happen. I also go to a university gym, so there tends to be a higher ratio of both pretty girls and meatheads than I've seen at other gyms.
