    I agree, it's annoying when you are strength training and people say, "Why do you want muscles?" or just stupid statements. It gets old after a while. -.-

    I deadlift twice my body weight and I definitely don't have "boy muscles."

    Woman - picking up and putting down weights will not turn you into a SHE-MAN!

    To each her own...you are in much better health than me, and that's to be commended. But your muscles are pretty masculine. The high jumper pic, which fit and muscular, is more what I ascribe to be one day...still soft and womanly, but strong and fit.

    lol@calling her masculine...she is far from it..she looks great. most people cant come close to her dedication.

    So stop it. Thanks.

    So because you have a preference for your body to be one way, no one is allowed to express their preference for something else?
    There's a difference between expressing a preference for something else like an adult, and saying "Eww, that's gross/ugly/ you looka lika man."

    Well, I can say, I have not seen posts that say that, but agree that is obnoxious if it's happening. The posts I've seen have been more to the, "Not the look I'm going for," type replies.

    soccer moms with muscles are so much hotter to me these days then skinny college girls. all thanks to this site.

    Well that just made my day!!!! :wink: (yes, I know that you were not talk about me directly, but I will take a compliment any way that I can get!! haha)

    TinkrBelz, in the most non-stalker way possible, you were who popped into my head when I read his comment! Your muscles are not masculine in the least. You have a body that makes the rest of us jealous!

    I disagree that her muscles are masculine, I think they are awesome!

    And the high jumper pic, I don't think I could call that soft at all. When I hear the word soft, I think doughy. Every bit of her is strong muscle!

    Here's a newsflash - I'm annoyed by pro-lady muscle posts, since I don't like muscles on ladies. However, I do not complain about it because everyone is entitled to personal taste. So stop complaining.

    Is it me - or is this post highly ironic?
  • Who ever said muscles are just for men. Honestly I think women look better and rock them better!

    As I said, it's a personal opinion. I wish I had that kind of dedication, but if I did, that's not the look I'm going for. My personal body-inspirations are Christina Hendricks and Kate Winslet. Bottom line is if you think you look great, then you are succeeding. Other people's opinions of your body type don't matter.

    In this thread, a woman was called masculine. How is that even close to okay? If someone called me masculine, they damn well had better have a banging body or I'm calling them soft. Since the only difference between what people call "masculine" and "feminine" is body fat %. Hell, soft would probably be the nicest thing I would say.

    What is so rude? I commended her for the dedication she gives to her health and admitted that she is in far better health than I am.

    Well, at least in my case my objection has nothing to do with lady-muscles, of which I have no real opinion. I think the pro-lady-muscle crew look fabulous, and I think people look fabulous when less muscular, too. I think having the body type that you (collective you) desire makes you more confident and attractive. However, I object to posts started specifically to tell other people what they should/shouldn't post.
