    I had no idea his peon was going to chime in... I have a wonderful Idea you two be freinds and not post in forums and block everyone who make you feel inferior. Or suck it up and realize it is your own insecurities causing you issues not the men of MFP.

    I see no reason for you to insult me, but if you insist on suggesting how I should handle friends you should first learn how to spell "friends", if I chose to block "everyone who makes me feel inferior", there would be no one on this site I would need to block.

    Have a nice day :bigsmile:

    So does having a couple of scrawny flexing pics (but not as my profile) invalidate any contribution I might make to serious discussions?

    This was the first picture I have EVER let anyone see that had me with my shirt off. I have lost over 100 pounds, I plan on losing over 100 more.
    I was about to hurl when I first put this up. I have hidden for 2 decades. Once I got it done and was able to relax I am damn proud of it.

    If this means I am not serious, then no one on here is serious.

    As I progress, I plan on posting pretty much everything but my junk!

    If you believe that all shirtless pic guys are shallow & narcissistic, does that mean you also believe all fat people are lazy & unmotivated?

    To the OP, it's probably a bad idea to insult people you don't know because they have a pic of themselves flexing. Some of those "guys with guns and abs flexing in the mirror" have turned out to be some of the best sources of support and information. A lot of them started out obese or overweight as well and worked their arses off (quite literally) to get where they are now.

    A little perspective and open-mindedness will take you a long way here. Don't toss good people aside because of your own insecurity or prejudices.

    Best line in this thread...
    I guess I'm not shallow enough cause I haven't gone "nuts" yet.

    I enjoy seeing the ab pics - male or female. Not because I'm shallow or panting after someone, but because it's very motivational and I can see that these are the people I can look to for advice because it's obvious they do take it seriously.

    I'd post one, but that would involve 4 hours of back shaving.

    Although that would be another 2-3 pounds of weight loss.

    Lastly, as the OP asked specifically for male friends who do not post flexing pictures; why was it necessary for females or those that take pride in their accomplishments and display their flexing images, to reply to the post at all?

    So why did you respond? You don't appear to be the OPs target potential friend either.

    Absolutely - and I have pledged that I will NEVER join the brigade who post photos of their navels, but never their faces - which I find curious.
    Apparently, this is because they don't have anyone to take the photo for them - perhaps there is a connection between that and the flexing of abs?
