Being In Shape/Bodybuilder Is A Double Edged Sword.

The other thread got me thinking. Many kids on this board think that if you're a big guy you'll get respect and people fear you. Not always true. I have seen countless times where people start shit or cause trouble just to prove that a big guy is a pussy or that they can beat him.

Bouncing in a club I've seen more fights with skinny twink kids going after a huge guy who was minding his own business.

Then of course I've seen the huge steroid monster start lots of shit.

Its even.

One thing is for sure...IF YOU'RE AN ASSHOLE BEFORE STEROIDS...YOU WILL BE AN EVEN BIGGER ASSHOLE ON THEM.

I remember one time I was at a resort walking through the pool and I heard some guy behind me make a comment to his friends, obviously think I was out of earshot, he says in a deep voice, " I like to do squats, and deadlifts,...." etc. Normally I would ignore it, but I was annoyed because all day people were just fucking staring at me. So I turned around and looked at him and his expression was like "Oh shit" and everybody in the group immediately looked away.

Usually when I go on vacation I notice people looking at me and at the beginning it's cool and I take it as a compliment. But by the end of the vacation it's annoying as hell lol.

I take staring as a compliment. It can feel uncomfortable at times, but I generally don't care. I'm not super big anyway, so if anything people are staring because I like to cut up for the summer and its usually older women. I had a resort employee in the Dominican tell my gf at the time that "your husband looks strong."
I work out mainly for myself, but I enjoy flaunting the fruits of my labor when appropriate (on stage, at the pool, and at the beach). Focus on walking around older women, I guarantee it will be a nice ego boost lol.

I blend in in street clothes but look awesome on the beach, its the ideal combination.

100% agreed with. My only motivation to lift...women.

BUT...when you look good and have fitted clothes on...not tents...not baggy falling off the ass jeans...but clothes that fit you or you're wearing a short sleeve shirt that is tight around your arms...you will always have assholes who start shit.

Little shits always seem to have something to prove.  I've beat the shit out of the same guy at least 5 times yet he still always starts crap with me.  Not sure what the fuck is wrong with people.

I agree with your premise.  Being muscular and fit does encourage some insecure morons to start shit.
