    I think it's generational. And when several do it, makes my workout longer playing go seek the weights dropped where ever throughout the gym. I just try to be a good example by putting mine up. I unrack what was left by others. I tidy up the DB as best I can. I feel like someone's mom. There's some equipment I just can't move........so I ask a nice young fella to help me....sometimes the same Dick who left them. "Hi. Can u help me out? That's too heavy for me to put up but I don't want anyone to get hurt ..thankyou so much. I really appreciate your kindness. "

    I really like your approach , but I doubt many of the guys that have posted in this thread would get the same results as when you do it ! Not to " play the woman card " , but from what I have seen any female that does actually use free weights are actually over respectful and want the weights in the correct place and wipe down the equipment before and after use ! So from my experience females get a pass on this one ! Even the younger girls that come in with their BF's are very tidy !

    That's the ticket. What a great way to correct the person who knows they left it in a non combative manner. As a women you will make him feel jackass.
