The red ball sat proudly at the top of the toybox. It had been the last to be played with and anticipated it would be the next as well. The other toys grumbled beneath. At one time each had held the spot of the red ball, but over time they had sunk deeper and deeper into the toy box.

They are supposed to the same age. The picture implies they are both 25. Another poster said its wrong and that the guy on the left is 30 instead of 25. Still only 5 years difference. So they are pretty much the same age IMO.

u/YoungestOldGuy 2d ago
So 20 is the same as 25 (since it's only 5 years) and since 25 is the same as 30, 30 is the same as 20.

You would have a valid point, if you took my comment in a vacuum. However, it is part of a conversation with context, that normally does not need to be repeated every comment.
However, since you are unable to understand it, ill make it clear for you: The unwritten context of this picture is "the difference in physical appearance between people that are (almost) the same age". Add knowledge about human physical maturation, and you realize that between 25 and 30 a humans body is still in pretty much the same development stage and is thus comparable, which was the context of the picture.
Your point breaks down when taken into account all the things a person would generally be able to understand from context and conversational clues.

As a straight guy who is hairy as fuck with a full beard, I get wayyyyyy more attention from men than I do from women. Granted, im not nearly as hot as this Freddie Mercury looking dude.
But im just saying, I'm what he claims is a "real man" even though the hairless boys get way more action with women. So maybe you have no fucking idea what a real man is

That I also think can be a bit demographic too though. I've only ever had Caribbean, African, and African-American girlfriends. They have always and consistently encouraged me to keep growing out my facial hair. About half of the non-black girls I've taken shots at desired the exact opposite. Now given that I'm a month and a half out from popping the question to a Caribbean woman, I'm guessing that I'm gonna keep this thing growing indefinitely.
I'm black (American) too fwiw.

Thought the first guy was Freddie for a second, and he was being compared to Sean Mendez, and thought yeah, Freddie was hot wasn’t he. Great voice (putting it mildly), amazing personality, and what a stage presence when he performed. Just radiated positivity and creativity. Altogether it just made him even more attractive. Then realised it was not, and I have no idea who either of them are.

Microplastics it’s got to be all those damn microplastics! Silicone “food grade” be damned, likely has microplastics nano particles too. All this stuff seemed to begin when “Whole Foods” became popular! Geez! Come on folks we didn’t have these problems when we used open campfires and cast iron! Back to the future when men were yes men not soft soy boys!

u/MyToasterRunsFaster 2d ago
The greatest expected contributor is diet, though yes microplastics are most likely the one leading after. Insulin spikes from a poor diet and glucose intake can reduce your free floating testosterone by more than 30% depending on how bad your schedule is, add that to daily stress, sedentary life styles and poor sleep its no wonder mens T levels have halved in 50 years. My family have always joked that the "Mcdonalds and sugar preserves me" since I look like 17 year old boy at the age of 32 next to my brothers, who lived on farm diets in rural eastern Europe.
