Out of curiosity, if two new guys arrive at the gym, are they assumed to be gay? Just want to know in case I convince a mate to join the gym with me....
Depends how much you kiss each other and have hands all over each other between sets. Then can only assume....
Nothing wrong with that of course, if that's what you are in to.

Was it her strength that caught your attention or ahem other features?

Ok so the update you have really been waiting for.....turns out I was wrong they are not lesbians, well most likely not and not with each other anyway.
They were at the gym again this morning and I asked one of the PTs about these two new girls, commenting how strong they were. He said they use to be members of the gym a few years back (before my mate took over) and were actually "Mother and daughter" despite only looking a max of about 10 years in age apart. Knowing this now I guess one could be late 30s and one early 20s. I remarked how 'affectionate' they are to each other and he said "Yeah they are Brazilian or Argentinian" which kinda explains it. Must say that when I saw kissing there wasnt any on the lips but lots of the cheek and hands on each other between lifts.
So yeah I assumed wrong and while one fantasy (something about hot lesbian bodybuilders) is destroyed, a new one arises with the mother / daughter thing now thrown in as well.
