Guy on the left has not destroyed his dick, balls and sex drive from anabolic steroids so I'd say there's a big difference

Bro looks like someone vacu-shrunk his head. Also his muscles so weirdly distended and uneven? He looks like he's going to fold in half and spin like a top from the tension. 'roids are bad for you, kids.

A lot of people have left-side/right-side muscle asymmetries--many of us just don't match up on both sides. And past a certain point, hypertrophy does nothing but make those differences super-obvious.

Wait... are using wired earbuds a thing now?

i always use wired earbuds

The one o. The left looks suspicious to me.

In my experience women do go wild for guys who pose half-naked in strip mall parking lots.

Yeah, but, at his age, he needs to be dating WOMEN, or it'd be illegal....

both are gay men

Darn it. This isn't a performance, Sexy To Someone just slaps okay. Let men have depressing music.

It’s both bad if there’s obsessive compulsive tendencies involved and the guy with the bulging muscles took steroids. You don’t wanna be around him then (mentally unstable, prone to heart failure etc.). Left might just be obsessive with “optimizing calorie intake” and diet plan.🤔💁🏻‍♂️😓

Only difference is who you are performing for

The guy on the right doesn’t know who he’s performing for, though.

His mom

difference is that one is performing for what women seem to actually want (at least within his millieu) and one is performing for a powerfully incorrect view of what women want, both are entering into a homoerotic self presentation but only one is doing so deliberately

.... i hate to say it, but this is Gender

We’re gonna have to acknowledge the legions of (presumably) straight young men performing for male attention and affection. What used to be relegated to the world of adult films is now commonplace on Instagram reels.

as always the core dynamic on the young-right are people who are either gay or so misogynistic they are essentially becoming gay

But some of the more toxic, self-loathing gays then…if they get to the point of becoming self-aware of it even and don’t destroy themselves in the unbearable performance of projecting heteronormative “normalcy” until they can’t bear it anymore. Part of me pities them as they need help and 1/3

none is in sight. Another part wants to be there when Life breaks their hyper-inflated egos and then help them recreate themselves in a healthier version. Life has a tendency to do that through consequences, that would be considered cruel if another human were to deliberately bring those about. 2/3

But I cannot dehumanize them since I know all they want to achieve with these obsessive-compulsive “performances”, is to be “loved”. They have no idea what love really means but theirs certainly is the very foundation and fuel for their conviction that they’re “doing good/right” by themselves.😓💁🏻‍♂️ 3/3

I've said it before and I'll say it again, if you're getting jacked so you can "get chicks" you're doing it for the wrong reasons

shakespeare and company sending me tbh
