What would you do?

I'm two months into HRT and things are developing nicely.  Nothing is noticeable when in guy mode. My hair, IMO, is a mess.  Too long for a guy and not long enough to style yet.  Pierced ears with very small black starter studs.

For the last two night I've gone to the local gym. I typically ride the stationary bike for 30 minutes then do some stretching. While there I wear biking shorts, baggy shirt, and a non-feminine head band to keep the sweat from running.  The bikes are on the balcony and they overlook the treadmills, weights and floor area used for stretching. I like the arrangement because that's 30 minutes of people watching.

Monday night two really cute 18ish girls were there stretching and doing light weights.  Nice view 😋

Tuesday they walked in, one of them saw me up on the bike laughed a little, said something to her friend, who looked up at me then back to her friend and they both burst out laughing. 

Real subtle... NOT!

I finished cycling and headed down to stretch out and a little yoga.  They were still there and right next to me.

What would you do?  Say something, say nothing, run away...?

I did the "right" thing and ignored it.  But what fun I could have had. I had the opportunity to educate, condemn, scold....

What would you do?

I'm afraid if I went out in public, I would be lecturing everyone because I believe acceptance comes before passing.

Teenage girls? Ignore them.  At that age kids tend to be too self-involved when in groups to pay any attention to what some 'old person' they don't know might say to them. At most you'd be providing them a few more giggles as they will better remember and talk about you later.

The laughter of their peers is more important to them than the commentary of elders.

The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers.

That was my exact thought. 
I was thinking it was funny.
