Gender assigned exercise
I officially hate the term “boy push ups”. Why do they have to be “boy”? Aren’t they just real push ups and opposed to less strenuous ones? I think in the interest of tough workout babes everywhere, we ban the use of the terms boy or girl push ups. I’m sure there are more than a few boys who cannot do real push ups.
And, for the record, I’m jealous of April and Angela going to The Arnold. I want to go to. (On the floor throwing a fit.) No really, you guys have fun. ![]()

You are so right — I promise to never say that again. But I am pleased that I can now do the real ones.

That is funny because I teach Physical Education and when the boys call them girl push ups I tell them there is no such thing. They are called modified push ups because some boys even have to do them that way. It aggevates me to death. They always tell me that is what their dads told them, go figure.
