not post, PAGES. and literally, 75% of them say women now go ape**** over them now that they are in shape. i actually posted in there though i won't disclose my ID on that site.
I believe Did Hard was the closest. here's the deal. this is about my figure

my chest is bigger than that, my arm's aren't as big and my midsection isn't as small but not by much i have viable abs. I have a huge back/lats, bigger than this guy's, but i'm not big. As of today i'm 171 and i have to wear a belt with my 32 jeans/slacks. and to be my size i have stupid muscular thighs.
i don't say all that to brag just about everyone here knows i work out everyday and have for quite a while. i say that to say, this is what the study doesn't equate for.
lol, women don't think I work out. they really don't. the vast majority of women dont' seem to understand that just beucase you go to a gym and lift weights that you aren't going to be Jay Cutler or something. every girl who goes tot he gym with me or went when i was single would look at weights like they were the black plauge or something and wouldn't' touch them for fear of becoming she woman or some **** overnight. i tell a girl i'm going to the gym and 10 out of 10 of them wills ay "you don't need to get any bigger you are just fine the way you are" they dont' get it.
see women think of the gym in terms of the feminane. most women can stay skinny without going to the gym. my wife doesn't really do weights, does yoga, jogs, eats right, still has abs and she had a son 4 years ago. women don't understand that we have much more muscle than they do, much much more and to stay in shape / skinny for us, requires us to do different **** than it requires them to do.
I've been skinny. I've been fat. I've been skinny fat. I've been somewhat in shape, I've been ripped, I've been athletic, i've been jacked, I've been slim and ripped. at 135 pounds and 5'8, i got girls but i never got called "hot".
at 240 pounds i got called everything but a man
at 160 pounds with little muscle i spun plates, even good looking ones.
however at 170 pounds now with the above description.. 2 days ago i was at the DMV and some random chick was just starring me and ran into a door lol. that **** doesn't happen to me at 135. or my wife getting so embarrassed at her friends talking about me with my shirt off at a pool party she asks me to put it back on.
the only girls who truely LIKE skinny emo looking guys are the ones who know they can't keep a man like myself.
