“Women wearing short shorts at the gym does not make them whores, it makes the men calling them whores misogynists. There’s a difference there,” Levy said, adding that he’d “seen more men’s nipples at the gym than I’ve ever seen women showing their bodies off”.

I believe Dan hits the gym way more than Shane does, but being a gym rat is not a pre-requisite for calling out misogyny.

    I don't know how you'd come to that conclusion. (Who actually goes to the gym.)

    He did say whores, it did get a lot of laughs, maybe he was joking maybe not.

    Advocates of modesty norms would counter that shared spaces benefit from common standards of decency, and that some reasonable limits exist everywhere. The debate is mostly about where that line sits and whether it's drawn evenly.
