Women and Scales

Women and Scales are one of my Pet Hates, but cynically it makes me laugh.
What are Scales for in a Gym? Scales are used to measure the amount of Fluid lost during training.
I.e one would measure themselves prior and after and replace the difference in water.

For some reason however, women have been conditioned over time to associate Scales with their body size, shape and dimensions. There is no direct correlation. Clothing sizes are just as they say, Sizes which are related to either Inches or Cm's. They do not list weight guidance on them. A size 6 girl can be 40kgs, or she can be 52. It depends on her bone density and muscle mass not her weight.

Scales are used for Postal Services to work out the amount of Fuel spent to move something.
Weight is also used to measure force and velocity.
WEIGHT is not used to measure how big your Ball Dress will be when you try it on, that would be a Tape Measure, the little thing with the numbers that say cm or mm.
