Anyone who believes that men aren't affected by that stuff is delusional. Men are sorted and ranked by physical attributes beginning in preschool. Every day for a young boy is a constant measuring of oneself. The difference is that we are not taught to think about it. We're taught to not question it. To shut up and accept it. If you don't like where you're ranked, fight for it. Otherwise just shut up and keep your head down.0

Personally the body of the top left one has me drooling....his model counterpart not so much.
My thoughts exactly :drinker:0 -
Loving that guy on the top left. HOT! My honey is starting to look like that. They have a very similar build. YAY!0

Unrealistic, idealized views of female AND male bodies is detrimental to society, imho. While not everyone is affected the same way (I don't want to date a model and I find "normal" women more attractive than magazine pictures), a LOT of people are and that negatively affects all of us. I've known a lot of women who struggle with relationships because they are constantly after men who only look like the ones on the cover of GQ magazine (and most of the time those guys are total ****wads). That affects both the woman and the men who get overlooked because they're not rocking six pack abs. Plus, if not for male models, I don't think nearly as many men would try so damn hard to look like them in the first place. So the pendulum swings both ways.0

I find it humorous at times that a picture can alter their thoughts on themselves.
the force can have a strong influence on the weak-minded.0 -

Women have Barbie, men have He-Man. The difference between how we deal with these "ideal" body types is simple: men aren't bat $#!t insane.

My guess is that the dudes had fun doing that. I just don't think most guys give a **** what male models look like as most of us are too busy looking at women.0

I kinda think men have enough to deal with. They get measured on physical things that there is no fix for: height, size..., and not being bald (not to say some women don't like short bald guys, just saying in general).
They also get more scrutiny on personality and how much money they make.
.. And I actually preferred the models. Why not?? They worked hard for that physique and they deserve to be recognized for it. I don't feel like a bad person for finding a cut muscular man sexy.0 -
LOLOLLLL!!!!
Love how the first guy looks like he was fighting to keep a straight face XD
Sorry, that's all I can focus on now. His facial expression.. Priceless!!!0 -
