Nope. I was always intereste din it before i touched a weight. I remember watching WSM when i was like 4 etc like wrestling. Always fascinated by strength. Always the strongest in my class etc.
Seemed natural.
Regarding social status,
I have a law degree, got top marks in my class etc. People assume i am stupid cos i am bigger than average. People are shocked to hear me speak. Shocked to realise i am a practising catholic.
I also work as a doorman. People def assume i am a thicko.
Saying that...I love being a juxtaposition at times...
