    Love seeing strong women be actually fucking jacked. Women can be shredded too, it’s so annoying seeing women depicted in media who look like they only do cardio 3 days a week and look tiny next to their male counterparts (cough cough Wonder Woman). I wanna see beefcakes, I wanna see tree trunk abdomens, bulldozer thighs, pecs the size of mountains!

    What I’m saying is that hunk is a gender neutral word, and there can never be too many hunks in the world, ya feel?

      The reason you don't see many buff women is that we're told "You don't want to look bulky" and thus all the exercises we're taught are slimming exercises explicitly designed to not make us buff looking.

        Yeah it’s fucking absurd, spoiler alert; buff women are hot as hell. Jacked dudes are hot as hell. Shredded enbies are hot as hell. Being massive is fucking hot.

        I once got in a conversation with a very small, very skinny friend of mine about excessive and diet and stuff, and I remember her saying, and I quote “I don’t want to work out too much and accidentally get muscles” and it’s like bruh, that’s not how this works, that’s not how any of this works. She also said that she doesn’t eat protein because it “makes me sick,” which is just... all kinds of concerning.

        Societal standards are really a fuck...

          I wish I could accidentally work out and get [visible] muscles.

          I assume she meant visible.

            She was actually afraid of growing new mutant muscles on her skeleton.

      its especially annoying in video games. even the biggest, strongest warriors are made up of giant beefcake men and dainty lil women. why cant the women look like their preferred method of entering a room is to koolaid man through the wall like the men?

      There is another famous Soviet woman who's also jacked af: Lady Motherland. She's got beefy arms---which she needs to lift that sword; it weighs 15 tons!

      tree trunk abdomens

      Reminds me that I saw some crossfit woman in my Google News feed and thought she had incredibly well developed ab muscles.
