being hot is a lot of work if you're trying to fit the Western patriarchal beauty standards tho. have you ever tried to follow a model or famous actor's fitness plan? it's so hard and time consuming. i'm not saying being conventionally attractive can't make things easier* but we shouldn't pretend like there isn't work being done. even shit like being an influencer or sex work takes a lot of marketing work and editing your content and stuff. i just feel like going it's not that hard to go from being "being hot isn't work" to saying a lot of the forms of labor service industry people end up doing isn't work so we're potential ceding ground to the reactionaries there.
*it can also make things harder even professionally, plenty of attractive women get passed over for promotions bc their sexist boss thinks they're a "dumb blonde" or whatever

All those plans are nonsense and not what the actors or models actually do. Sure they put in a ton of effort into exercise and diet, but not by following their puff piece article on men's health or whatever. The actual mechanics of dieting and exercise are very simple and won't sell any magazines, which is why they make up nonsense fitness plans to write articles about.
yeah i know, i'm talking about the actual work they put in.
edit: i'll make my example more clear. a lot of NFL teams have strict workout plans they put their cheerleaders on. those workout plans are unpaid labor they have to do to keep their job since these people aren't being paid to go to the gym, correct? also NFL teams got busted not paying cheerleaders for mandatory attendance at promotional events like car dealership openings or whatever bc "standing around looking hot isn't work."
Yeah one of the actors from the it's always Sunny in Philadelphia series has a good quote about that, how much effort it takes to get in tip top shape.
I'm describing people with corporate leadership roles in two huge retailers. These people are the least productive of the entire professional managerial class. They don't even send 8 emails a day, they sit in meetings and take notes about those emails then send it off to the decision makers. Sometimes they have to do the uncomfortable task of breaking bad news to their subordinates.
Steroids really just make it so you can work out harder. It isn't really cheating like people think. I have known guys that tried a cycle, couldn't commit and had poor results.

That was my point steroids are a lot of work to do properly especially if you want to get anything like the results you see on tv.
