ehhh, i personally dont think its an issue. we are turning in feminists crying about fictional characters not looking realistic enough. thats a route i really dont want to go down.and if you look at comic book portrayals for the most part they have always looked in peak physical condition.so this article falls flat. that being said men and women for the most part look at things differently from what i see. men typically admire it and women resent. you will never hear a fat man demand a fat out of shape super hero. you wont. but you will hear a woman cry about why isnt that person doing all those incredible physical feats 300lbs

I never understand why women get mad at other women. And men get inspired by other men Yes these actors are to some degree showing an unattainable image. But that's what they get paid for. They get paid to act the character and look like the character. That does not mean you stop trying though. At the moment I have not been doing as much as normal because I changed jobs and at present I have a 4 hour commute every day. This means I have cut down what I do , this does not mean I give up though

Women look at these actresses and think I will never look that good and simple do not even try. Men will try. In the gym it's about 70% men when I go

men are more realistic when looking at things in general. ive nevr personally heard and rarely heard a fat guy blame his weight on genetics. for the most part we know we are being lazy,eating like shit and not doing what is needed to be done to attain those goals. women on the other hand have excuse after excuse. for example. ana kasparian from tyt in the fit body ad controversy actually blocked me for calling her out on her bullshit. in the same segment i kid you not said i tried to get my dream body and went to the gym but "failed miserably" when it came to her diet and in the next sentence said if i wanted my dream body i would have to get surgery. she cant even admit to what she said. and ive seen most women react that way
