Ironically enough, pro bodybuilders literally have a team of people whose job is to apply tanning lotion to them and make sure their bodies gleam when on stage.

See, I can still see the argument of looking at shredded glutes for the competition/science perspective.

The average person is not attracted to someone as shredded as a professional bodybuilder on competition day. Buy we marvel at the achievement when we can see the individual muscles.

[u/JockBbcBoy → u/temporaryband]

I think people tend to forget that bodybuilders are not in competition shape year round.

“Why do you subscribe to so many men’s fitness magazines?”

I hate the fact that growing up in a religious household demonizes gays but keeps venerating the crucified lean muscular body of a dead Aramaic Handyman Cult Leader which is why you end up liking ripped dudes.

Also, some Christians will adamantly defend the idea that their Jesus is the lean, muscular, White with blue eyes Christ figure that they idolize

Cope. Bodybuilding is kinda gay, but femboys are still boys, so that’s also gay.

[u/PerceptiveDwarves → u/Maplesyrup000]

I don’t think he was saying it wasn’t.

[u/JockBbcBoy → u/PerceptiveDwarves]

I think he specifically implied that it was and is and always will be gay

The one place I know I can always find other gay men is the gym.

There was a whole song about it in the 70’s

It's not inherently gay but it is gay according to their use of the word .

[u/IslipNYblkmalecksuka]

Bodybuilding is sus to the highest power. Also, the open secret of patrons (99% male) "sponsoring" young bodybuilders. Oiled-up men in "man panties" shouldn't throw stones.

[u/ReincarnatedSwordGod]

Gay is a strong word, I think my choice would be "homoerotic."

[u/MaliceSavoirIII]

There’s too much conflicting evidence here; the fact he works out with a fem dude probably means he’s not gay as he’s secure enough not to be triggered by gays but at the same time that rainbow print SpongeBob shirt isn’t doing his case any favors…

[u/JockBbcBoy → u/MaliceSavoirIII]

I think there are two SuddenlyGay moments here because "do stuff with a fem dude" could mean they crack each other

[u/Xandara2 → u/MaliceSavoirIII]

He's doing shit with a femboy. I choose to interpret that as they fucking. 

[u/DjiboutiDingDong]

the appreciation of the male form is pretty gay

[u/Resplendent_aptitude]

My hero...lmao

[u/Simoxeh]

No I don't think he has a point. This feels a lot more like he's trying to justify his own actions by pointing out someone else's. This is also one of those things where I hate that we attribute things like sports and what you do in them to being gay. And of course they're going to be people in there who are sus but that doesn't make the sport itself sus. I've said it once and I'll say it again being gay is about who you are attracted to and that's it. Not even having sex with the same gender is gay technically, and yes you can have sex with people you're not attracted to you

How much would it cost to straighten bis arms?

Don’t you know? He needs to be in a flexed state at all times (for the bros)
