minx Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 this does make me wonder what proportion of female climbers started climbing w/their boyfriends or b/c of their boyfriends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, it was actually the other way around. I saw a good friend take a ground fall soloing. I had no desire to climb after watching him bounce off the deck ... until I saw Muffy on the rock with appropriate gear and the such.

Ned_Flanders Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 it seems as though it happens lots. I know many who have started because of boyfriends. then if they break up, the women have lots of stock because now they are mentored and kick ass climbers.

maryk Posted July 8, 2003 Author Share Posted July 8, 2003 It's hard to tell the ladies from the studs around here in email-land... Me - I actually climbed a handful of times here and there in my younger days (now I've got you wondering my age, don't I?), and was pretty much terrified. Elvis leg, pumped arms and the whole bit. I never thought I'd be "a climber." But now, ??, I could go off on an eloquent tangent about how it sucked me in. I still flail, but I like it, and I had a great teacher (who is very safe!). Hey Ladies - anyone ever try breaking away from the boys here every once in a while?? A ladies only PC?? It might be worthwhile sometime.
