How do women undeservedly treat you as a threat?

I’m a very dedicated yogi. I also travel frequently and like visiting studios. Sometimes I’ll visit a studio that’s what I would call a “girl’s club” which is the majority of studios. I’m a friendly person and I enjoy talking about yoga. Many times women either openly mock me, give me dirty looks, or give me short responses. This is mostly the women at the counter and sometimes teachers.

Their opinion does a complete one-eighty after they see my yoga practice and how not only I’m an experienced yogi (in normal ppl terms) but how I never look at anyone in class and am very focused on my own practice. It upright cringy how their tone changes after class.

I understand creepy dudes go to yoga, but it’s pretty off putting to go somewhere to do something you love and are treated guilty until proven innocent.
