Stereotyping bodybuilders!

MuscleM4n · 08-31-2005, 08:25 PM

Why do some people stereotype bodybuilders as being gay?

i do not know a single gay bodybuilder

Can you think of any other steroptypes people have against bodybuilders and/or weightlifters?

Another one that annoyed me is the stereotyping of, "oh he is muscly, he must be on creatine"

.......

Most peopledon't even know what creatine is. Most of the stereo types no one actually believes. Like all BB's have a small dick and are stupid. It's just a joke that makes them feel better about being fat.

**Prince** · 08-31-2005, 08:52 PM

the reason for the stereotype is because it has been "said" that many pro bodybuilders accept money to pose nude for rich gay guys, in fact I believe Arnold is rumored to have done this back in the 70's.

the other reason for the stereotype is because people assume that a bodybuilder loves their body, hence they must like other male's bodies, basically the general public does not understand bodybuilding.

I think that's the main reason, all jealousy.
You can buy a big truck, you can buy the latest in fashion but you can't buy muscles...it's all about hard work and most people don't have the intestinal fortitude for it.

They just want what you have without doing any of the work

MuscleM4n · 08-31-2005, 09:13 PM

but you can buy synthetic muscles!

If you are rich you can have surgery which i believe puts plastic or such under your skin.

Robert Dimaggio - good post, I didn't think of this before...makes sense.

I know a guy who's about 26 now, claims his friend ( who is obviously rich )
said he was in a limo with arnold some years ago and Arnold came on to him.
( the guy is gay )
