Thinking Out Loud

Sep 28, 2023 - permalink

Margie Martin has a teenage son, although she's been active on social media and bodybuilding for most of his life. Sometimes I wonder if he gets harassed at school or bullied because of some of his mother's nude posts on her public Twitter page. But then again maybe he gets congratulated.

If I remember right she also has a daughter but never posts or even mentions.

Probably for the best. The only reason I know of her son is because I've seen him in the background in several videos of her posing in skimpy bikinis.

Agreed.

There are some very, very weird and creepy people who ask for gross shit when they see a bodybuilder or fitness personality with their children.

I wonder if there's a group of women who admire male muscles, as much as we do females here. I wonder if there's a male version of this website where women share male bodybuilder photos with eachother, comment, discuss about physiques.

Big generalization here, but I'm sure that there isn't. Women just aren't wired that way.

Just like this site is dedicated to womens' muscles... you can find sites dedicated to womens' legs, feet, breasts, asses... you name it.

I doubt that there is even one significant online community where hetero women obsess over specific physical attributes of men. Women simply don't be like that.

There seems to be a trend of people taking selfies while holding their phone in their mouth... Example:

I rank this one up there with eating Tide pods. I think technically you're actually safer sticking a toilet seat in your mouth.

I predict a short shelf life for this trend. If not, god help us all.

The "pants around your ankles" look is embarrassing for most, but for bodybuilders it's a common thing:

Just adding to this:

I think the teenage (or younger) child of any parent who presents a highly sexualized image to the public is going to be teased and bullied, and it's hard to keep that private and still compete/promote products/promote OF etc.

I wonder how FBBs who are doctors don’t lose their medical licenses for using non-prescribed, and therefore illegal, steroids. Things that make you go hmmm…

Lots of doctors use illegal drugs.

LOL yes. So do cops. None of these people are losing their licenses for this stuff.

https://www.reddit.com/r/LadyBoners/ Pretty much all the guys they admire are fit and muscular, but I don't see any bodybuilders. Alan Ritchson, the actor who plays Reacher, is about as big as they get.

That doesn't mean there are no female MBB admirers. All the big guys, if they are straight, have hot girlfriends or wives. I just don't see them being discussed by women on the internet.

I wonder what the history of tanning is for bodybuilders? Did someone just try it one day at some competition and won, and it caught on after that?

EDIT: Moved to Off Topic, so you can post whatever comes to mind.

Dont know exactly but fact it on dark tan the definition of the muscle is better to see with the stage light because of less shadows . Oil and the whole makeup do the rest for make look complete .

I guess it was noticed at the roots of compete on black or darker skinned athletes the muscle definition is better to see . So i guess the white atheletes tryed out getting darker tan and it worked so over time this became standart . So some kind of evoluton process

Yes that is how I imagine it happened. It would be interesting to know the exact history of it, though. Does it go back to the 60's? Further?

I don't expect you to know the answer, as I'm not asking you directly. I'm simply "thinking out loud" here. πŸ™‚

Yes i know how the tan works on stage and how to prepare for , how the tan competition evolved and the reasons how this happened but don't know the exact timeline the presentation evolution

So curious for some more details too

Female bodybuilding is still very stigmatized for women. Women suffer prejudice and judgment from family, friends and people in general. I think it's very brave for a woman to assume her strength and support this work. There are many restrictions to reach a certain shape. I also admire men who like, admire and want a woman like that by their side. Accepting this desire is liberating.

Is it just me or are certain people on this website trying too hard to appear normal. like when I say what I am attracted to I get more positive reactions on reddit or in YouTube comments. from people who aren't even attracted to muscle women. than some people on here who are acting pretentious.

Is it really from simply saying that you are attracted to them, or is it more in the way that you express that.

Lots of people in my personal life know that I am into muscular women and I haven't gotten any shit for it. But I have seen comments from people who are into them where it's not surprising that the response is less than enthusiastic.

It's probably unrealistic and asking a lot out of someone who is probably not interested to begin with, but with how, well, socially awkward I have seen "schmoes" get when DMing buff women or even when around them in-person (like that guy who creeped out Michaela Aycock,) I wish there was some kind of class or lecture series on how to talk to muscular women. Obviously, it's not any different from how to talk to women in general, but I think having a program that is specific to men who dig buff women, that is ideally taught by a muscular woman herself, might be good for many people. You could argue that those who really need the advice most won't be apt to seek after it, but after seeing numerous (how do I date/meet muscular women" along with "Why did this woman block me I only messaged something that make it not surprising that they were blocked"), I think there are many who would take part in learning.

And no, I don't mean those "How to date a female bodybuilder" videos that HerBiceps puts out. Those are clearly more "fetish-geared" where the bodybuilder says what they know the audience wants to hear, versus more actionable advice.

i never dm fbbs all i sometimes do is make joke comments about them being super human and even that is rare and i never even got blocked by any as far as i know. but the main reason i am starting to get annoyed is when i am talking among other men and they condemn me for saying she can lift cars overhead when that is clearly a joke. or when i talk about getting seduced and other fantasies and real experiences like i don't get this reaction on other websites

I think the tanning goes back to the 70's or before. The idea I recall was that the tan showed the muscles off better. That was the sole reason. I'm not sure if it is true, but most fbbs and bodybuilders tan...some to an excessive point.

If I had to simplify it as much as possible for a typical schmoe to understand, I would tell them to try not to talk to women as if they're standing there with their dick in their hand. Put aside the fetish and talk to them like a normal person... a little empathy can go a long way.
