    It’s very fucked up what people perceived has healthy now.

    I’ve been in fairly decent shape my whole life but the amount of people, especially women, that tell me I’m too skinny and that I need to gain weight. Even when I’m actually closer to being overweight than underweight. Or how many times I seen someone point to someone on steroids or fat and say that they are healthy.

    It’s got to the point where kids need to be educated. I wouldn’t even be against weighing them. If they obese then it’s also child abuse and the parents fault.

    People think now if you can see/feel ribs or have any muscle tone (while not being a body builder) it means you’re underweight. That’s how humans are meant to be built! Go look at hunter gathers tribes or any active person pre the 90’s.

    Shit even dogs are fat nowadays.

        Gym bros normally know who’s on steroids.

        I find it’s normally girls that are like “just look at a chicken and walk past a gym once a week and you can have arms the size of your head”

          Yeah that’s clearly not what we’re talking about here. Cortisol cream for eczema is a steroid, but nobody using it would say they’re on roids.

          We’re obviously talking about people who juice for muscle mass.
