Secrets Secrets

Female muscle love is a pretty secretive affair, aside from one segment I saw on a talk show about some guy that travels and spends thousands of dollars on sessions with female bodybuilders. Does anyone here have close friends, immediate family, or relatives that know about their love for female muscle? If so, what are their reactions and/or opinions?
I have spent my whole life keeping my obsession a secret from my parents when I was a kid, and now my friends and girlfriends as an adult. Let me know what you think.

I let my wife know when I first met her that I had a weakness for strong women. She has accepted it and so long as I don't let it consume me (i.e. spending too much time on sites like this) she has been rather tolerant of it. So far, so good...

 i do tell people friends etc. i am not ashamed. i love female muscle. i think jesus put that sexual desire for muscle women in me.

If pressed, I will say I like athletic girls and leave it at that. 

No one knows I've been sexually aroused by fitness/figure babes since I was a young teen watching Kiana on Bodyshaping. 

Yep, was in love with Kiana and Cory Everson too. Good stuff

Hey,

You raise an interesting point regarding the taboo status of feminine muscularity (often equated with masculinity).  The more muscular the woman, the the smaller the proportion of the population will accept her (let alone find her attractive/beautiful).  The reason I throw this in there is because if you merely like someone like Kiana Tom with well toned muscles, but still very petite and traditional in appearance, then I see no issue in you "coming out" to anyone about your preference for this aesthetic.  On the other hand, if you particularly appreciate large fbb's, you may be in for a slightly harsher reception.  The good news is, that family and friends won't think much differently of you - if at all.  Telling your girlfriend, however, is a much dicier proposition.  If she's muscular she could think that you "only" like her for that reason and most woman don't want to be fetishized within a relationship.  On the other hand, if she's not muscular, she most likely won't take up bodybuilding or steroids for you, and may develop insecurities about her appearance.

With regard to your example of the guy that spends a lot of money - I think there is a very underground and relatively small subculture of men who are willing to pay good money to be dominated or otherwise enjoy the company of extraordinarily muscular women.  In my opinion and experience though, the transactions are exclusively known to the service provider and the recipient.  I'm not saying it's a form of prostitution, but I think it's more or less done on a similarly low-key basis, usually in the privacy of a hotel room, dungeon, or the like.

As for my personal practices:
(1)  Family:  Found out via "busting" me with pictures of thousands of muscular babes on the computer (oops), but really didn't say much or treat me differently.  My dad mocked me about it once or twice, which looking back was pretty funny, because he was mimicking flexing poses and making sound effects.
(2)  Friends:  I'm pretty open with friends, and have never received even the slightest criticism about my preference.  I say I like athletic girls and explain that a 6-pack on a girl is awesome to me, etc.  Some guys will differ and say something like "I like a flat stomach, but no abs."  A few have agreed that athletic girls are awesome.  When push comes to shove, a lot of guys do appreciate at least a girl with abs.  My last roommate had a poster of Jamie Eason who is a fitness model.  I never went into depth about muscle babes with him, but chances are he'd be down for a fit chick, too.  I mention this because what are the chances of two random students who both like it being randomly assigned to live together?  That indicates it may not be as uncommon as we often think.
(3)  Girls:  In this situation, I merely say I like a girl who is athletic upfront, but without placing huge emphasis on the matter.  I'll say that I like abs on a girl too.  I rarely get into more detail than that, but occasionally have asked for a flex.  I never make it a big deal though.  So far, this open but played-down approach has helped me date several muscular chicks - something you have to experience - you deserve it!

Hey

MuscleMaster - I guess that you're big and strong. And so perhaps it's normal that you can tell people that you like strong and well-trained women. But if you look like me, a little too thick on the stomach and a little too thin everywhere else, it can be very difficult to say that you like muscular women  :D

I've never told my parents, I've never told my girlfriend. I tried to tell a friend once that I loved girls with muscles. I started with a little muscle on a girl. Didn't wanna scare him, but he didn't understand - so left the subject pretty fast.

No one at work or other friends has a clue about this site or any of the other sites. They would never understand I think. If I said at work that when I look at a woman I look at:
1. her biceps
2. her arms
3. her face
4. her tits
5. her ass
People would think I'm too strange  ;D ;D

I would love to be able to look at GWM or any other sites with friends. Being able to say that Colette Nelson is better looking than Sandra Bullock etc. :)

But, thank god we have internet so we can talk about it here.

In response to liftmedk:

so you look at her biceps AND her arms eh?  no calves or legs?  :-P  and actually, i'm 6'0" and of average/slightly athletic build (around 207lbs).  I'm not ripped, and definitely not a bodybuilder - so, no there is hope for average Joe's of the world!  I do however, workout, and my goal is to get a 6-pack of my own.  As far as luck with the ladies, I believe it's more a matter of confidence and actively pursuing your dream girl.  I have a friend who is quite overweight (around 260) and has gotten all kinds of chicks!  Granted, he's not into muscular ones, but attractive girls nonetheless.  So, even though we're hung up on the women's physiques, it's crucial not to confound that with what they're looking for.  Sure they might like a guy who's in shape - or they might not care as long as they're treated decently.

I used google translate - never do that :)

I would have said that I looked at her biceps and then her forearms - wrists. That might make me look strange in the real world but I'm sure that in here people understand  :D

Let's hope there is hope for Joe :)

@wgonzo - I refer you to the True Stories thread in the Stories section of the forum if you'd like to tell us more about your friend.  And if you could post a pic of her calves, that would be awesome too.  Thanks man. :)

Secrets? No Secrets,all my Friends knows,i like Muscle Girls  ;D

I have no problem with that,and when a people dont understand,why i like Girls with muscles,it is not my problem.Hey,we live in a world where lesbien can married,or porns are normally ;D

Hahaha,i like girls in Spandex and Swimsuits too,where is the problem,to say that? Peoples go in Swinger Clubs,or make sex in cars,and so much more^^,all peoples in the world knows that,but nobody says it loud,what an irony ::).

Keep relax,and love what you like,stay behind your preferences,and dont shame you,thats my slogan 8)

Hey, well it's my first post and this is a really interesting subject. I'm a really open guy, who likes to party and go crazy, I can socialize with anyone and would be considered "cool" by most of you. My likeness for GWM is a secret, or atleast was until this saturday, and this is the part when it gets interesting; I'm 20 years old and live in Venezuela, and I've never been with a muscular chick (it's my ultimate dream).

So this girl has a crush on me, she's 16, she's an old ex-gf's cousin (she's athletic, she likes doing sports and such), we screwed around about 3 months ago and since then I rarely talked to her, but she was still thinking about me and sending me text msgs once in a while, we had talked few things since we met, (only as a friend and when I was bored), and since we had sex we liked to dirty talk a lot, so we trusted each other a bit, so saturday, she pops in msn messenger and tells me: "why don't u like me better", and it comes into a half an hour conversation, until I said it, I revealed my secret: "I like girls with muscles, a six-pack, biceps...etc.". So she tells me: "I'll do it", I was awestruck and I had to make sure that what I was reading was real, so I said: "u'll do what?", she said: "I'll become all muscular for you, I'll train from monday to sunday until I get as muscular as you want. In 3 months you'll see." So now I can't stop thinking about her and her future muscular physique... What do you guys think?.

Hey AdrGea
Cool post, how awesome you had the guts to tell her about it, and even more cool she wants to make you happy, by starting to build some muscles, Look forward to hear about the progress. Keep us posted :D

This is too good to be true but, since truth is stranger than fiction, I guess it's true!!
There were no girls like this when i was your age. Before and after pics if you (and she) would please.

Yah, I'll post pics of the progress. Wish me luck lol.

Hey,

My situation is actually close to yours AdrGea. My current GF is working out and growing muscle since she wants to fully please me in every possible way. Now that she has around 4 months working out, she really likes it and told me she is doing it for herself and couldn't believe she likes it so much. It's actually kind of amazing since I never... neverrrr thought she would take up this lifestyle (eating right, protein, supps, working out, etc) in order to build muscle. She is just so girly (always buying shoes, designer purses, nice clothes, etc) that I would have never thought so which is why when we were just going out and not GF-BF I hadn't made it official. I knew that there was no muscle there and that I needed to find a girl with some muscle otherwise my relationship would fail like my previous one. Oh and I also learned from experience that the girl I was with, had to genuinely have an interest in working out and being healthy. This was because my last GF wanted to please me but never could and even though she wouldn't accept she didn't have the discipline to do it, it was the truth in the end.

Anyways, currently she is at around 125lbs @ 5'6ish, she used to weigh 110-114lbs when I first met her... muscle is coming on great! Guess those 200+ grams of protein and hard work are paying off  >:D Her legs are amazingly hard and you can see them buldge up a bit, biceps are now actually there, before it was just a thin arm with no signs of muscle at all. Her back is also wider and getting really hard... this actually caused her to rip a dress the other day! LOL oh and her legs also made her rip a skirt! She also can't fit into most of her clothes now (esp pants/jeans). It is kinda amazing, when she first began working out she was fitting so much better in her clothes (losing some weight and little bit of fat she had gained over the years) and now the bulking/muscle process has begun where she is growing!

I had her open a bodyspace acct and even though she is a bit hesitant about uploading pics (doesn't want to show off until she feels she has a flat stomach and more muscle), I am recording her stats and will post it up here so guys can check it out.

Hey Frost, that's awesome... it's amazing what girls will do for us lol... I recently saw my girl this friday (when I say my girl, she isn't my gf or anything), she has 3 weeks working out seriously, everyday she works out, she jogs, does sit ups, she borrowed a sit up chair, dumbells from friends, I realized that she is really commited.

When she started she already was thin and worked out regularly just to stay in shape, but not with such intensity, so what I could see this friday really excited me, she was hard everywhere I touched. Her quads, calves, her abs were hard as hell and they were starting to show some def. She flexed her arms and they formed a little ball, I couldn't beleive what I saw, it was a little biceps pretty visible, I was like awesome! she said: "do biceps make u hot?" and I'm like, "fuck.. yah". She said "ok, I'll focus on them", I was losing my mind there lol. And that was my first hand experience so far, hopefully it gets way better. About the pics, well unfortunaly she doesn't wants to get pics taken... But I'll try my best. Cheers!

AdrGea  If she isn't your GF now, she soon ought to be, especially if she's offering to "...focus on them" biceps for you! Lucky stiff! ;D

Lol you are probably right...

That's awesome .... but the only thing I'd say (as someone who's in his late 30's) is to be a little bit cautious.  I mean, she's only 16, so the whole thing of having crushes on guys to the point she'll do "whatever it takes" to win over one of them as her boyfriend is probably just a stage....  Soon enough, she's going to outgrow that phase and start asking herself if she's doing things because she wants them for herself, or just to please someone else, you know?

Hopefully, she'll discover she really likes working out/being strong -- so it won't be an issue.  But if not, just be aware that this may not necessarily last, long-term.  And if it's like you said in your story so far, I wouldn't go blaming yourself or anything either.  You just have to give her some space to figure out for herself if she's happy with all of her decisions.

Adr seems to be a lucky man!

But I wanted to bring this topic back on track.. that and I thought it would be a good place for my first post considering my username!

SO I keep my love for muscle women a secret from everyone. I've never even hinted at it. I just don't think anyone would agree let alone understand! I remember seeing a picture of Jaslyn Hewitt (look her up on the site if you wish) in the newspaper and my brother making a negative comment about her (SMALL!) muscles. So, judging by that, if I were to show my family Katka Kyptova (my favourite!) for example, I don't think it would go down too well. I think the reaction from my friends would be even worse!

SO there it is.. that's partially why I am darksecret - cos I want to keep this in the dark  ;)

The reason I throw this in there is because if you merely like someone like Kiana Tom with well toned muscles, but still very petite and traditional in appearance, then I see no issue in you "coming out" to anyone about your preference for this aesthetic.  On the other hand, if you particularly appreciate large fbb's, you may be in for a slightly harsher reception.  The good news is, that family and friends won't think much differently of you - if at all.  Telling your girlfriend, however, is a much dicier proposition.  If she's muscular she could think that you "only" like her for that reason and most woman don't want to be fetishized within a relationship.

A wonderful subject to ponder. These are a few stories about this:

A few have agreed that athletic girls are awesome.  When push comes to shove, a lot of guys do appreciate at least a girl with abs.My last roommate had a poster of Jamie Eason who is a fitness model.
