Umm, Lee if you notice I very rarely comment of the male side of the sport but always have my two cents with the female side. I am more a follower of the female side - specifically fitness. I was a huge female bb fan originally, that is how I first came into this arena
I understand that CQ, as I tend to follow (or care about) the women's side more myself.
However, I still believe you are partial to unsually muscular men due to your interest and participation in this sport for what seems to be many years.
What you talk about is a natural
sexual attraction that goes with having muscle. I think there is a visceral reaction most women have towards seeing an especially buff guy. I know it has gotten me my share of attention over the years, and I'm no giant.
It's great, and a motivational factor for most guys in keeping up their training.
I don't deny that many, or even most, women would drool over the average pro bodybuilder physique upon intially seeing one. However, I think much of it is the novelty factor. And I think that wears off rather quickly for most women if you don't have something else going for you to back up the muscle. Its kind of like the "one-night stand" worthy guy vs. the "long-term partner" worthy guy. Most single guys have no problem being the one-night stand guy.
But in choosing a mate CQ, I find it less than ironic that you chose a
husband who weighed 150 when you are stating that virtually ALL women fantasize and want to be with a guy who's 5'8" 220 pounds of chemically-enhanced muscle.
Bottom line, women are confused.
