Serg, to try and give you a proper answer to a seemingly well thought out Line of questioning! As forthright as I can be and conceeding Ignorance due to lack thereof of any Formal education above High School/ Trade School! So pshychology is pretty much going to be lost on me as well....... I seriously dont have the first clue.... All I have really ever considered is the Absolute and Immediate effect it has on me when I See a Female That Works out or trains physically. Without any conscious thought I go from a state of normal BP, Pulse , awareness etc... etc... to what my closest guess is somewhere between the excitement from being sexually aroused or what happens to me during the onset of "fight or flight"! Based on the feelings I Have experienced in this life, at least up to this point, lol there is nothing I would Rather experience! Again im guessing but im going to say its something primal but it only last maybe 2 seconds. Because of such a short duration it's like before it can get to the level it wants to go, I or something is shutting it off again, so it never really gets to go where it is initially intending on going, If that makes any sense! And all of this happens without any conscious effort that I am able to detect! That is probably about the best I can do to explain it with no outside help! I think its also noteworthy to say IMHO, that if I had to choose a feeling that my body had to experience, it would be that one! It is the most amazing feeling ive ever had! Lastly, I have never been in the position where I had to find an answer to exactly what exactly is happeneing so i never pursued it past pondering. If someone is intelligent and knowledgable enough not only to be able to explain it to me but also give it your best shot at helping me to understand it, who am I to close my ear s to it? Now, with the exception that my brain doesnt fry before were finished , hehe! Basically, I believe I am as far open as I can get myself, alone!
Last question. I want to see if zarklephaser4 can answer my questions. They have been very interesting, I'll need to reread the whole thread to don't miss anything. I don't know why, but I felt that it was something that I needed at the moment.
Do you think the fetish of floor tiles is something possible? or it is something that some random people made up? Because everything that I've read has led me to think that there has to be a human element or an element of interaction (can protect you, can toss you, can letally headscissor you...) for the fetish to be triggered. But something as abstract as a geometrical pattern has also led people to feel something. How would these dynamics of power take place in a fetish like this?
Also, thank you Dahllas for replying.
What if a bodybuilder has a fetish for bodybuilders and then jerks off to his own image on the mirror? It is possible?
I've actually seen something approaching that. ~20 years ago there was a viral video of a male bodybuilder with a moustache flexing his muscles and getting WAY too turned on by them. Were he a woman, we'd still be talking about this video here today, I'm sure.
Is something that has been in my head for a while now. Maybe something related with a childhood experience (being raised with very dominant women)? The look of confidence and strength on a (muscular) woman?
Maybe someone can come up here saying "there isn't need to be a reason", but... idk, I've always thought that there's a reason for everything, and is the first time I ask myself the origin of this particular fetish
Best reason I can come with, regarding origins, is that it starts with what you experience in childhood. For me, it started with Street Fighter.
Each individual has certain characteristics that they are attracted to.
A comment above goes into genius detail of the attraction to intention. Can we agree that most of the human race intends to live healthy and teach something to others?
If you are healthy, then all of life becomes easier.
Now, we all lack some sort of health. What we think we lack is often what we are attracted to.
If you work hard on your shoulders, but they are smaller than a woman's then you are likely attracted to her shoulders. Jealousy really is a key component to attraction. It helps to fill a void and solve a problem.
Beyond this, it is genetically programmed in us to be attracted to certain traits. Smooth skin, small waist, wide shoulders, good posture, focused eyes, big lips, rosy cheeks. These are signs of good health, easy breathing, and strong immune systems.
People look for the health they need to learn from. Some women have huge muscles, but many outsiders don't find it attractive because these women aren't doing it for them. They have an intention for their look whether they are sacrificing their health or general attractiveness for their desire, career or even a partner.
People enjoy uniqueness, confidence, strengths, sacrice, and commitment. This all is played upon from a bodybuilding perspective. You display your uniquities. You are confident in your look and routine. You are working on your weaknesses and showing your strengths. They sacrifice a lot for their lifestyle. And they are committed to their goals.
To sum it up prioritize the health of your choices for yourself and others and you'll be attractive and find what you desire. Also, always be ready to sacrifice your health for someone else; that's the most spiritually attractive thing you can do.
@zarklephaser4 forgive me for interrupting your rolling PhD thesis on this topic with a few of my own recent thoughts.
If you ask Google what the ideal body type of a woman is, a number of articles come up. A few point out that universally across cultures, a waists/hip ratio of 0.7/1 is ideal. Other articles point out that a specific facial symmetry is considered beautiful. And finally a few articles identify the mesomorphic body type as beautiful in women based on recent trends.
Often women and men who are considered attractive are said to have good genetics. What does this mean? It means they have tall and sturdy physiques that may also more easily build muscle and tend to have lower body fat. The attraction to muscular women is just an extension of these current trends in identifying beauty.
Our brains are biologically programmed to find healthy capable, athletic and intelligent people as more attractive. The idea of “alpha” person goes way back. All the discussions in the forum that suggest most men and women do not find their muscular counterparts as attractive are phony. If you ask someone, their answer is loaded with personal biases and insecurities. You need to observe their behavior to learn what they truly believe.
I’m disappointed in you @zarklephaser. I thought you might have a background in psychology. I guess not despite all the volumes on the subject. What I said in my last paragraph is a well known general concept in psychology.
Margaret Mead once famously said: “what people say, what people do and what people say they do, are all mutually exclusive.”
I believe many more people find buff women attractive than willing to publicly admit. And the numbers of buff women are growing anyway. Of course, if they get lots of sides from heavy PED use, the attractiveness falls off. But even the heavily roided ones have their champions.
GWM showcases a wide range of buff women. The psychological reasons for liking them will vary as well.
There were all these nasty comments about Slava Galagan not too long ago when a positive article appeared about her in the NYPost. But I bet the people putting her down were just horribly jealous because she’s in-your-face gorgeous and they can’t touch her or look like her. The critical dudes have nothing but their pasty partners if they’re lucky or no one at all.
Simple. They’re freaking hot. Don’t overthink it. A recent poll found an overwhelming % of those asked would jump at the chance. Not all are equal either. You like the ones you like. My goodness….
That we find then hot is implicit in the subject of this thread. This not a "psychological reason", it's just a personal taste.
I’m disappointed
I don't care. I was wondering if you were going to make a point, but you didn't.
