Hey if someone wants to look at men in thongs flexing their muscles its ok with me. I don't know anyone in their right mind that would wanna look like a pro bber though.
The physique guys have builds most people would aspire to. Maybe if we made them wear thongs and hit a few poses it would be less "gay"?
Don't we all have our weird interests/obsessions? (music, porn, fashion, tattoos and the list goes on..), so I'm absolutely not ashamed to say that I LOVE PRO BODYBUILDING, male & female (fuck yeah!).
Regarding posing in thunks, yeah that would be better, and with posing I mean POSING, not those faggy catwalk moves with toothpaste smiles. Just put them in a weightclass, say up to 75-80 kg / 165-175 pound. It's still not my thing, but less gay for sure.
