  1. A lot of people really have no idea what "natural" is. That's kinda the issue - we need to start educating kids about body image issues - as a parent you can't let the fitness influencers get there first

  2.  @MissWhiskers  Absolutely, there are many "natural" looks - it's the impossible ideals our culture forces onto people that are narrow.

  3. It's the exact parallel of the beauty industry exploiting female insecurity to sell products

  4. The bodybuilding culture narrative that being "fake natty" is more destructive than being open about PED use is wrong, in my opinion. Saying "you can look like me if you use PEDs" encourages young men to use them. Yes, you're not scamming them into buying snake oil but you're still setting them up for a world of hurt Being honest about PED use doesn't mean you're not promoting their use. It doesn't mean you don't bear responsibility for what impressionable young men do with that information

  6.  @dexterwestin3747  Women be hilarious. If you ask them why height's important they'll say stuff like "I want to feel like he can protect me". Yeah honey a 6'3 140lb lanklet can protect you and a 5'8 180lb boxer can't. Cool.

  7.  @cookieaddictions  The issue is "fit" means "low body fat" and it can be really hard to maintain a body fat % low enough to give you visible abs

  8. @ Nah check out young Boris Yeltsin. One handsome fella. And then check out old, alcoholic Boris Yeltsin. You have to start caring once you hit 40.

  9. @ Western women all have social media brain rot so they kinda are a monolith. Outside of that you are correct.

  10. Gay dudes are winning. They earn more, get laid more and get divorced less. Send me to the hetero conversion camp already, I don't wanna be attracted to women.

  11. @TheSuperappelflap  It's always men's fault, isn't it... the societal changes that upended the dating market are never examined...

  12.  @coffeebean4356  Soyuz nerushimi, respublik svobodnik etc. etc.

  13. @Youaretheactionsofgod  I don't blame "passport bros" for doing what they do because nowadays Western women expect you to be an Adonis with a good job who's exciting but also stable etc. And in return they're overweight and their hobbies are limited to Netflix.
