#2 is packing.
I was about to comment that #2 either has as raging boner or it's just like that

Bigorexia is a real thing nowadays. The male body standard inflation on social media is just wild.. unless you're on gear, cut down to 6% body fat and in good lighting you'd get ratio'd into oblivion
I wish more people would be open about it. Alan Ritchson is one of the few Hollywood celebrities that has candidly spoken about his use of exogenous testosterone to prepare for his role as Reacher, but clearly so many others are getting help. I'm in my late 50s trying to add muscle mass, and it's a huge challenge. I'd say that I'm better off than all of the men in this 1919 photo, but not by that much.

It’s not at all about that. I guarantee you that if these guys maintained whatever diet they had at the time and added three hours a week of doing something with their muscles, they would look very different.
Right,, before power tools were common. I bet these guys were on average stronger than current average men.

They all look a little weird, like some old time photo editing was done.
That'd be the horrendous AI upscaling. Peep the fingers.

I'd rather have my 3% body fat "skinny arms" then synth arms.
It’s not one or the other. You can lift heavy things, not do steroids and not have skinny arms. You can also have skinny arms if you don’t want to lift heavy things and are perfectly content with them. But let’s not frame this as a binary choice because it isn’t.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]My point was that I'm able to lift heavier things than most people would assume because I'm low body fat but I'm the same weight as someone who does have 15%bodyfat for my height.

Sure. But also we know what an active body looks like and it’s not like this. They look like normal guys who don’t get much excercise. Look at people living in pre industrial tribes, Greco Roman beauty standards etc. not saying it’s wrong to look like that, but I personally do not want to look like that. I think we look best with a little bit of muscle on.
It's totally fine for me if you want to look like one of those Roman or greek statues but I don't think the (above) average greek or todays indigenous people look(ed) much different from the guys in the post, eg Yanomami for reference: https://images.app.goo.gl/xR5KMPCo6XMwnQne6

Kinda shows how fucked up our beauty standarts got...
Kinda shows beauty standards are completely arbitrary and context dependent.

You are asuming they do physical work and aren't just white collar.

If it's doing it immediately after the hash, that's an issue with your client. All the comments here look fine for me on Alexandria, base Lemmy, and Boost.

This shouldn't be

Oh well I never made any objection to the beauty standards so I agree I guess? I only said I don’t want to look like that, I’m a little old school, I want to look like all those Greek statues.
tiny wee wee included?

Who? Mr. beast?

Why does the guy on the left look like he's wearing a collar made of skin?
It's his tan line. None of those guys ever saw the sun without wearing a suit.
