Like, why does a gym attract so many dickheads. I’m just there minding my own damn business when I overhear dudes talking about how they are ‘going to get so much pussy for lifting’ and whatever dumb shit. It’s a constant stream of male garbage coming from all around you. My fault for not wearing headphones I guess.

Is that why you lift? Really? Are most gym bros just terminally insecure man children? Fucking hell man. Who unironically talks like that? I know I’m probably in a bubble as a sober, vegan communist but still.

    going to get so much pussy for lifting

    Body dysmorphia is rampant amongst gym bros. Not getting laid is the driving force. Internet market delivers toxic results. Also, yes dudes can be that dumb.

      In a loving, longterm relationship, still feel terrible about my body image even though I’m in the best shape of my life, shit hurts

        In a loving, longterm relationship, still feel terrible about my body and I’m in horrible shape (despite exercising still). If it helps in anyway, be proud of maintaining physical health. Attraction is subjective but your health isn’t. Always worth it exercise even if you’re just getting your heart rate up with some cardio. At least that what I tell my fat ass.
