It's about insecurity. The male ego is a surprisingly and amusingly fragile thing. Nine times out of ten, dudes have this weird need to one-up one another. Like that one annoying office-mate everyone has, but in everything deemed "masculine".
To be honest, I'd like to go to the gym more often, but I don't really have the internal motivation. Long-term depression kinda does that to ya.
I wouldn't be too interested in bulking up, but I'd definitely love to slim down. I'm way heavier than I'd like to be.
Unfortunately I'd be a disappointment as a gym partner. If you want an example, look up Bill Deautri--however you spell his last name. Bill from King of the Hill. Or Homer Simpson. That's pretty much my fitness level, ahaha.
I personally don't see why guys feel they have to bulk up and become a walking mass of muscles these days. I'm 160 pounds and almost none of it is muscle. I always wondered if I'd be able to handle myself in a fight though, despite that.

Guhhh. Unfortunate. I fall into the tiny category myself, I suppose. But... there are so many advantages. Snuggles feel so much nicer~ <3 <3
I'm also on the very slim/toned side, and I feel this holds me back with big guys. They usually have no interest in me - I've noticed that tubby guys tend to go for their own when it comes to girlfriends. this pisses me off >.<
I used to consider myself pretty open-minded until two users came to this board and taught me about social oppression and inequality. I'm very grateful to them and their teachings.
One was called subversive-imaginati, the other... I don't remember her name, but she had a picture of Poison Ivy as her avatar. I remember that thread very well. I tried to argue them back on their points until I finally considered "Maybe they're not exagerating..." and then made a switch to their side of the issue and started to read on social justice and related topics (started by re-evaluating my 'feminism' and by reading up on Orientalism). It's, without a doubt, one the most valuable experiences I've had in these boards.I'm curious to know who they are.
