I don't think we care so much about the male models, but we are bombarded by images of these cut, muscled, men with good bodies and it has to have some sort of impact on our psyche. I know i don't look like that, and while i don't think i let it get me down there is at least a little bit of dissatisfaction with the way that i look.



Congratulations! Welcome to our world Razz

I don't really notice either except the fact that they all have hairless chests. I guess that is to show off their 6 pack abs and defined pecs?

You have all seen me in my race photos and I am 1/3 of the way there Very Happy (at least I think I am) and I am happy where I am.

I don't have the time needed to get the 6 pack abs so my 12 pack will have to do. I will admit it I LOVE cheers . Will I ever do a better job of cross training so I get closer to that who knows?

Do I notice out the women in the ads, Yes. Do I spend a lot of time telling my wife I love her just the way she is god yes.

I think a lot of it has to do with your own perceptions. Maybe I got lucky since I started exercising (via playing outside) when I was a little Boiler and I have tried to keep it up and it has helped me to have the kind of body I do. I don't know if genetics is part of it and I don't want to bring that into it.

Sorry for jumping on a tangent there.

So to reiterate my answer. The only part I notice about the guys is the fact that none of them have hair on their chests. Do I wish I had abs like that sure. Will I get there probably not.

Thank you and I will get off my soapbox now.
