Title: The IFBB is sexist
Post by: El Diablo Blanco on July 06, 2007, 05:52:48 AM
The IFBB has only one competition for the men but for the women they have three.  Now I know I will never be able to get into Olympia shape but with the right diet I know I can compete in a Men's figure competition.  You will all say this is gay but it is no gayer then the regular men's competiton, except this has guys with leaner physiques.  I call you, the IFBB sexist as well as your spokesman Chick.  Chick should fight for the rights to allow the men to compete in figure and fitness competitions as well.

You sexist pigs!

Yeah, but that's lame. Why not promote it as the "GREATEST PHYSIQUE IN THE WORLD" contest and actually have some revenue?

bodybuilding has plenty of homos already we dont more. A division like figure wont work in bb, because it would just be about getting into contest shape, without the size

The 2006 IFBB World Amateur Championships had both regular and classic divisions.  The classic classes have height to weight ratio requirements.   There was a short, medium and tall class.  Here are the class winners:

these are the type of physiques I would actually expect from a drug tested contest.  Unlike these guys in the open 90kg weight class.
