Man I never knew this even existed until I started watching YouTube shorts,
You could have stopped right here. I've never noticed it either. Probably because it isn't real except in communities of feminazis anyway. And who wants to go near any of those bitches?
I'm not a mass monster. I have functional muscle. Am lean, and in better condition than 99.9% of 50+ year olds. Mission accomplished for me. And if you are going to aim to get freaky big, the general population may just look at you as a freak. You got what you were aiming for. In other words, don't get freaky big if you're going to cry when people's first impression is, "What a freak." All that means is you succeeded.
Even aside from all of that, what do you care what other people think of you? Screw them. This thread was started to stir up another culture war once again. Us against them, again. Why? And I see this on here all the time.
And "Toxic masculinity" to me is a silly phrase. Do they say that a women with a face-lift, fake boobs, butt implants, nose job, collagen lips, fake eyelashes, etc is "Toxic Femininity"? No. When they say "toxic masculinity" they're talking about men who try to intimidate, physically abuse, terrorize, etc.
Typical malignant narcissistic behavior that people believe makes them an "alpha" male. LOL! No. It makes them an emotionally stunted, bratty 12-yr-old. There's your "toxic masculinity".
You decide for yourself daily what you want to be and do that if it makes you happy. As an adult, you can do anything you want. People say, "You only live once." No. You only die once. You're born again every day and you decide who you're going to be that day.
We all are probably suffering from some mild to severe dysmorphia. Which in some ways is just another way of saying we are hypercritical of ourselves. Everyone is. Because society has put and shoved image above all else in our faces for decades. I've seen guys I know and even on here tell one person they look amazing in a photo while simultaneously putting themselves down for needing to lose bodyfat in one of their photos. Even while I'm seeing two guys who are VERY low bodyfat while very muscular and both look fantastic.
