    Interestingly enough you see the same results with men... post 1980 vs. 2012 man please.

    PS that thigh gap, how do i get mine? :wink:

    I think I have to go back further for men. Arnold was 1970 and he was on the juice, right?

    Actually now that I think about it, I'm do feel a little bad. Lets try to remember that everyone's definition of beauty is different and we should be accepting (and now I'm not being sarcastic)

    I'm sure Iris Kyle does work hard and is proud of her own accomplishments and look. I think she's won 6 times in a row, which is excellent. But I do think she's on steroids.

    Thank you. that's all i was saying.

    Bodybuilding has unfortunately turned into "who's the bigger mutant?" Not that it was even really a sport to begin with. <_<

    Hulk Maaaaddddddd!

    Did anyone else's eyes go straight to the teeny tiny purple pants???

    He's looking down as if to say..."Wait, where did it go?" Oh, I'm mean and awful. If I say "with all due respect" or "no offense" will I not get bombarded by comments on how I shouldn't make fun of people?

    Rachel Mclish was and always will be my idea of a female body builder. She is muscular yet feminine. She still looks awesome:)

    :huh: I promise you that 90% of people don't have the dedication to get that look (steroids or not). It takes commitment level I certainly don't have.

    I remember when she won, back then I was into the bodybuilding thing, not hard core, never competed, and never took drugs. I was totally in love with Rachel back then, I graduated HS in 80 and she was and still is my idea of a perfect body.

    I don't have a problem with steroids. I don't use them but I have no issue with them. I do have an issue with legal, sanctioned competitions and events that basically require their use like pro bodybuilding, pro "wrestling", etc. It's disgusting that the government will arrest you and throw you in jail for selling or using steroids (if you're caught) but turns a blind eye to the obvious use and abuse in these events. Hell Ronnie Coleman is a freaking cop!! How does that work?? Wonder if he feels guilty making drug busts? Make up your mind government.
