it's not gay, but bodybuilding is definitely a scam, and its actually the zoomers who have dived the deepest into this scam over the past few years with the "self improvement movement (since 2020 and even a bit before, theres been a big surge of "go gym" among zoomers), which in the end just led to false disillusionment. i've been doing bodybuilding for 4 years without skipping a single session (3 times a week, on top of having a physical job), and i have a good physique, except that i'm a manlet, so it obviously didnt bring me anything other than coworkers who noticed my weight gain, saying "oh, you've bulked up", nothing more. needless to say, i'm still a virgin. and the narrative that has changed "we do this for ourselves" says it all... but on top of that it does nothing for ourselves either, you won't get the dopamine after sport after a while and it just becomes a chore. it's literally a motivation scam to push you into buying food supplements and giving views to fitness influencers. biggest scam of the decade. bodybuilding is only a bonus for the chads, those who already have a physical base and good bone structure, why is the first thing people talk about "cutting" and being lean? well, because being lean is something that only benefits guys who are 1m81 and taller. whats the point of being "lean" when youre short, if not to emphasize your adolescent frame? its a scam for most men below 1m75 and around that height. even in bodybuilding forums or even on /fit, when people give their height and weight, theyre all tall. bodybuilding will accentuate the beauty of the tall, while for the short, the goal is to compensate, except it compensates nothing, it's just useless.
