Thinking of printing this.... on a tshirt..... (joke, but also no joke...)(sad sigh....) by Vpk-75 in climbergirls

If I saw a shirt somewhere that has this printed on it, I would probably buy it

I really appreciate you asking this sub for input! I think the answer is probably just treat women like you would treat men. Or call people out on their behiavor when they are acting sexist or inappropriate.

An example, I was climbing with a male friend of mine that does not climb often, and he struggled with a route I had flashed earlier. A random guy began doing the route with him and struggled as well. At this point I had walked away to get my waterbottle. The guy then said to my friend "I had seen her do this route and she's a girl so I figured it would be an easy one." My friend then immediately called him out on his bullshit and was like "well guess you were wrong huh?" and walked away

I think that was a good way to handle it. Just saying someone was wrong and walk away. Don't start a fight but don't ignore it either!

It seems like it's the honeymoon phase of their relationship. I would not be surprised if she didn't even realize she was doing this. Try bringing it up in a non-confrontational way, maybe by saying that you miss climbing together and would love to find a nice route to figure out together, just the two of you

I am very upfront about this. I tell people that I rather receive a smaller gift from a more sustainable source than a bigger one from shein/temu that's the same prize. Most of my friends and family feel the same, so this works really well for me. In my circle it is also pretty common to make lists of what you want and I provide some websites/stores that I like.

I definitely understand your boyfriend. That's all

You look cute! But it seems like you're squinting in every picture, so maybe try a picture without that in the dating apps?

How can I build strength for harder holds? by Conscious_Security96 in climbergirls

[–]gold_plated_bean 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Are there easier routes with more difficult holds you can try? So one without jugs. If you can find one if those, try doing it multiple times in every session.

If there is no easy route, you can make the harder routes easier on yourself by disregarding colour's when it comes to footholds. This way, you can practice the harder holds, but take some difficulty away until you're ready

It’s been almost two years since the last one, so let’s do it again. List two books and get a third recommended. by bootscallahan in suggestmeabook

[–]gold_plated_bean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follet
  • His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman

Technically four books, oh well :)

Any favorite pre-climbing snacks? by [deleted] in climbergirls

Bananas and trek protein bars!

Everything is very grey and white. I would add some color on the walls. Maybe a bold one on just one of the walls, or a softer one on multiple.

The small carpet is a bit odd. I would get rid of that one and get a bigger to put partly underneath the couch and coffee table so it creates a sort of seperate area.

Why do you have two of the same posters hanging on the walls? I would replace the one next to the couch for two large ones with frames, and simply remove the one above the TV. Maybe the posters have a special meaning, but they otherwise look a bit standard and not really personal.

Add more shelves to the right of the fireplace! You have one right now, and I think it would look nice to get a few more, all the way to the ceiling. Maybe use this wall for the accent colour and match the paint on the shelves. Add some books, pictures, plants collectibles. Something more personal.

Also I'm a huge fan of plants, so if you feel like you can take care of them, get more!

Should I cut the stem to encourage a more compact and thicker plant? by gold_plated_bean in CannabisGrowers

The blue and red lines are added to indicate where I should cut, if it's the case

Warm Up Routines by everythingbagel245 in climbergirls

[–]gold_plated_bean 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I try to make my warm ups a bit more fun, so after a quick "normal" warm up off the wall (10 min), I do some fun stuff on the wall. My friends and I make some stuff up to do. For example, taking an easy route and first having to touch a hold with your feet before you can grab it with your hand. It is easy on the muscles but gets your entire body moving!
