Makes me uncomfortable. Wild, wild, wild, wild, fucking wild.” She also wrote on the post, “This guy has been making me very uncomfortable in the gym. That’s why I end up crying on air [because] sometimes I’m so disgusted by the level of sexualization I’m going through. Hopefully this brings awareness to the girls who are going through this treatment at the gym.”

Or God forbid trying to talk to you.”
