I mentioned CrossFit specifically because that's where I observed this. It's been a while since I've spent time in a traditional gym, but when I did, the men and women seemed largely (self-) segregated. Men on free weights, women on yoga mats and cycles, with some occasional crossover on some weight machines. I know women can get strong in traditional gyms, it's just not part of my experience. CrossFit has done a lot promote the idea of strength as a key component of fitness for women (as opposed to slimming). And if the price of that is having to suffer a few bros bragging about their WOD times on FB, I can live with that. Hope you can too.
