Girls and sons who have not been loved by their fathers seek attention once teens and adults to compensate for what they didnt have originally. Fathers either left them alone, or were distant most of the time and not encouraging them. Some even despised them which would shape their personality and the way they d interact with others for the rest of their life.
They are extremistic in everything they do, always looking exageratly for attention, and have troubles adapting to society's rules, because they also have troubles defining their own identity and respecting authority and hierarchy.
Also boys who got picked on by others during childhood and adolescence -often sons without a father figure- try to compensate by lifting weights, to develop muscles and survive in ther male world. They re insecure because they re girly, childish, feminine having been raised by a single mom. They lift obsessively hoping it will transform them into men, to compensate for their lack of influence from a father figure that was not there. Unfortunaltey they can get as big as they can it doesnt cure their insecurity and who they truly are, how they grew up being raised by a single mom. They re no as manly as other men whatever they do, and they often have a big lack of masculine presence they dont know how to balance, hence often being borderline homosexuals while trying to get their manhood back thru various manly activities (mma, cars, weight lifting etc). They are often the ones that, in order to get respect from other males will go the steroids route to get even "bigger" attemptint to cure their insecurity , but being natural not being "enough", they still feel "too small", insecure, amongst other males. The lack of a father figure also often means they didnt have guidance to continue studies and are often working shitty manual jobs.

Elegant, smart, faithful, educated enough women coming from stable families are taught by their fathers and mothers not to date losers (sons abandonned by their fathers and badly raised by single moms) because they mean troubles. They can detect them from a mile.
Yet, they can recognize such a guy who wants to better himself and give him a chance. They can have pity for a guy whose parents separated and offer him the opportunity to repair his past. But if you shit on this oportunity, you re the worst asshole ever, period.
When your father left your mother and condemend both you and sisters/brothers and mother to a lot of pain and the terrible possibility of reproducing what he exposed you to, you better not listening to him anymore.
Just aim for a girl who s working while studying, isnt superificial, is down to earth, has family values and knows how to be a caring mother for both her man and eventual kids. Teach her sex (balanced sexual acts, not extremistic shit, do not search to perform, casual normal sex with love is what lasts the longest) , how to get in shape and go thru life together. You re wasting your time if you dont.
Stay balanced, quit the extremes. Lots of hapiness to be found in sincere, prosaic, everyday stable love. But it requires a lot of courage and sacrifices.
Women just like what is balanced, what is not extreme, as it means you re able to adapt to everything = maximum odds of survival. They want a guy with a good job, but that doenst take too much time, who earns good money but wont care only about material goods, who s muscular but not too much, who s nice, but not too much, who s a beast in bed most of the time but adapt to their feelings on the moment, who will force them to suck his hard veiny cock some times until they moan like babies, but will lick their clit at others... who will cuddle but not too much, who will not hesitate to slap them once in a while when they go overboard but will also discuss with them when they re depressed...who has friends and spend time socializing with them but not too much and who will also care about her and kids... Who will be nice to kids, but not too nice either and will teach them respect...
This is how it truly works. Balance. It is perfection in people minds. It is maximum capacity of adaptation, maximum odds of survival whatever happens. Extremes are repulsive to most.
And, men want exactly the same thing of a woman.
Men dont give a fuck if a woman earns a good income, her place is in the kitchen, in the gym, and in kids sleeping room. Sometimes woman can go visit one or two good old reliable friends to socialize -if they think like your man does-, and maybe your parents -when they re not in conflict with your man's views-, but that's about it. Woman, You re suposed to have enough time to take care of the house,kids and most importantly your man.
Also wether a woman works 20 hour s a week at the local walmart or is a business executive working 60 hours a week -and neglecting kids and husband- doesnt matter the least to men. Actually i dont know any man who enjoys his woman earns more than him or sacrify time spent with him and/or kids to focus on a ''career''. Women are not suposed to have a career. Only power hungry women who want to dominate men do.
Some women get it right, and accept their condition. They re called happy women. Women are here to help men, men are here to dominate women in a benevolent way. We re not talking about unhealthy domination. It s about teaching them life. Men are teachers for women and kids.
Love cannot be found in emotionless, casual sex which is an addiction that never fulfils men and women who ve been designed to create a stable, happy family. Sex is for reproduction and then to keep men and women together (if sexual life is satysfying between them) so they ll raise kids in peace until they can leave home by themselves. If women cannot provide fulfiling sex to their men then everything will collapse. Most of the time they cant cause they havent been taught by their mothers/grandmothers how to handle this part of life. The other extreme is women who only are good at sex but nothing else much and always want to dominate men but cannot become mothers.

Life's easier being large and in charge.

actually, even though I am a twink and a total shell compared to groinks physical status, I know how groink feels :P
I know these people, they come at me with; "5 years ago I was in great shape! I was so much stronger and leaner than now, man! Yeah, I could squat with 140kg for reps even, I was almost complete, I had energy to do everything".
Then I go; "cool, so what happent..."
then he goes; "Well you know I got injurys on my shoulder and knees and stuff, you know" Yeah ok I understand that *and continue do a set*. And then after i finnish my set he goes; "So are you all natural?"
ehhhhhhh, what :D ! And this guy, never seen him in my life before, ever.
Or in a club; "Yeah man, I was thinking of starting to workout, you know, little training couple of days a week to get in better shape a little, uhuh, yeah, that's what I'm planning".... what the fuck, leave me alone :D

I don’t think there is a more complete teaching tool on the subject of fitness and nutrition out on the market than what GetBig reveal. When you start setting goals for your future the first thing you do is select someone to help you get there that is well qualified in the field you’ve selected, health and fitness are no exception; you need the best in the business if you’re serious about achieving the best results. A GetBig program will enable you to reach every goal. You will feel good and look forward to many more years of added success. Following a program is perfect for anyone wanting the very best of health and fitness, taught by the very best in the business, regardless of your age. There is so much information out there about health and fitness and some of it can be very misleading. Nothing gives results like perseverance, combined with accurate knowledge like one gets from Getbig. I recommend it without hesitation to my friends and family, and continue to do so.
But what I love most is the very informative forum. I was hopelessly overweight and quite down on myself. I wasted so much money on fat loss pills and creams, I think I must have tried every diet in the universe. I did lose weight, a few pounds here and there I was a classic yo–yo dieter but I always gained it back and more. I feel so glad, I finally found a program on here, what it’s done for me is something I can’t put into words. So many forums are full of trolls/hecklers but there is a great atmosphere here, everybody is keen to help each other and there’s a lot of fun to be had also in the gossip, humour threads where people relax and talk a bit of nonsense. You really get to know the regulars and the moderators/regulars have a wide experience in different types of lifting so there is always someone who can help talking from experience. People also respect each other, there are no stupid mean remarks.

Hey PNS, this guy is Dutch. You oughta despise him.... ;)

If you're positive, and your heart smiles, you don't act like a douche then people will smile back at you. Even if you're 250lb jacked, it's always about what's inside of your not outside, it's how you carry yourself and what's going on inside of you. ;)

When you're dressed in more than a Tshirt people will think you are just fat...

SAME THING HERE. FUNNY THING IS I WAS/AM NOT EVEN BIG AT 5´10, 200LBS REAL LEAN AT MY PEAK BEFORE INJURIES SET IN. :'(
I DID NOT HAVE THE THICKNESS A LOT OF YOU GUYS HAVE, PERHAPS CAUSE I NEVER EXCEEDED 500MG TEST WITH 4IU GH, BUT I JUST HAD THE WIDTH. MY WIDTH, AND MUSCLE BELLIES AND VEINS----ALL STEROID INFLUENCED THE MORE I THINK ABOUT IT-- MADE ME STAND OUT. MY ARMS ARE THIN NOT THICK, BUT THEY ARE WIDE. MY SHOULDERS ARE WIDE, BUT FROM THE SIDE I DID NOT HAVE THAT MUCH THICKNESS.
NOT MANY 200LBERS CAN ROCK A 2XL AND HAVE IT FITTED.

The "life" being easier...is not practically true, but as for respect and attention being shown more often...yes. Some people will instantly despise you, and others will want to be your friend. Jealousy and envy will increase as will praise and a false glory. A demi-god like physique needs to be partnered with a sense of identity that is NOT based on the body.

There is a lot of debate on whether such daddy issues truly exist, and much debate on the Oedipal complex as a whole. Young girls may identify more with their mothers than fathers, but so may young boys. This may be culturally predetermined or situationally determined. It’s hard to know what a stay at home dad scenario would do to “daddy issues.”

Oedipal complex theory is considered completely obsolete in modern psychiatry...

I've also noticed that you bigger guys tend to look me down :D, as if I'm entering your turf or some shit like that, they also insist on taking my spot on the bar line just when I'm about to order.
This one time two over 6'foot great style and bodys (no homo) having douche bags were having a swag on with themselves, checking out the ladies and holding a drink on their hand, pretending to laugh to their own jokes prolly heard 10 times before.
Anyway they looked SO down on me it was pathetic, like "you can't wear those jeans and that t-shirt with your ripped/170lbs physique, it's our job!", then I saw this girl I know and went to chat with her, grab her ass and kiss her and ask her phone number and these two guys who are twice my size and what it seems much wealthier than I am were stalking me the rest of the night.

Us bodybuild féllás are insecure. I think it has something to do with parents bla bla uberman derp herp derp derp.

If you are bigger people treat you differently in many aspects of life.
It is engrained in our DNA bigger = better
There will ALWAYS be exceptions

lol derp'drrrr :D
well what I've seen, when a bigger man sees me doing the same thing as he is doing he is like; "Oh that twink prolly thinks he is prety swole with his abs, tssssh, I'm gonna do a back latspread the entire time I'm ordering a drink infront of him" lol :D

Lots of quotes from the uberman bible index in this thread.

An exception is huge dudes that aren't actually built, they just admire their own fatceps until someone truly built makes them meltdown.
I hit the gym covered in layers of clothing because it's so fucking cold here. The chubby permabulkers stare everyone down including me. They see me lifting quiet as a mouse with big weights and start taking notice. Then I take off my sweaters and sweat pants and they really start melting down. Typical permabulkers.
Most of them stop looking and do anything they can to avoid eye contact after that. But some are cool and will ask how I got so ripped, what I take and what I eat, etc.
I was ULTRA skinny and the way people treat me now is way different. But now I don't care because I realize how superficial and judgemental people are. Just because I'm jacked up they respect me? I don't want that kind of respect.

lol, my favorite so far is the "elegant women are taught by their mothers and fathers not to date losers". ;D

life IS much easier being bigger.
At least it has been for me. More attention, it gave me some opportunities also.
the only problem with that is that from my look, when I don't speak and people see me for the first time, they are intimitated and think I am a mean dude (that's what people tell me after knowing me for a while).
then when I talk to them they see I joke around a lot and I don't take anything seriously and everything's fine.
but I have to make the first contact most of the time.

The evolution of your mom.

Ok, speciation models and their difference of the species concept...
-
The evolution of your mom.
traced back to ancestral eve? I read that the male and female ancetry when traced back does lead to a single male and female, but the female ancestry reaches back farther.
Not that i really understand what that means, but cool nonetheless.
-
It was mostly mathematical, but I applied it to human evolution. Unfortunately you can't earn a living from this stuff (of course) so I became a teacher, and finished med school too...

-
I can still get irritated sometimes, but mostly I pity the fools...
very irritating, but i think this type of topic can't be reasoned into someone because of their religious background.
A lot of people are sensible enough to accept the evidence, but for most I think it has to be a top down religious education that accepts science, and makes religion consistent with evolution. Otherwise, its not easy to present something to someone that goes in contradiction to their religious beliefs and ethic- which is a cornerstone in their life and ultimately their survival guide to life. I'm really not in favor of robbing some one of that, so I advocate the more sympathic and perhaps slow method of making people more educated in general. Whereas science illuminates our understanding of the world, it does little to replace value systems that people live by to carry on with life.
/meltdown.

Dont think so.
The man basically has said he doesnt believe in god, but that people that DO practice/believe their religion are much happier overall and lead more self-fulfilling lives, tend to have more stable families in general, and tend to get/stay married, whereas atheists tend to get married less, stay married much less, have kids less, and are generally more cynical and more miserable with the world around them.
Which is probably true on most accounts, but I know some pretty miserable religious families and some pretty content atheists, so of course there is exceptions on both sides.
The problem is, people on one side or the other arent going to agree with any of this, because people dont like when others point out things like that about the belief system, so they automatically get defense or attack the other side. (They say things like "Every christian I know cheats on his wife, or every atheist I know is happily married, which of course is just them trying to justify their own beliefs or deny the facts)
Atheists and Christians are both terrible about this. Many people from both sides refuse to believe the other group can possibly have anything valid to learn from, and both sides seem to be consumed with hate for each other on many occaisons, which causes them to be totally irrational and incapable of discussing the subject.

Really? Where is the study that he pulled this information from? My parents are atheists and have had a very stable and successful marriage. They had 2 kids. I would argue and say the divorce rate among any religion is higher.
Denomination (in order of decreasing divorce rate)
% who have been divorced
Non-denominational ** 34%
Baptists 29%
Mainline Protestants 25%
Mormons 24%
Catholics 21%
Lutherans 21%
Variation in divorce rates by religion:
Religion % have been divorced
Jews 30%
Born-again Christians 27%
Other Christians 24%
Atheists, Agnostics 21%
Variation in divorce rates by location:
The Barna Group study found:
Area % are or have been divorced
South 27% (Bible belt)
Midwest 27% (Bible belt)
West 26%
Northeast 19%
Associated Press' confirmation of Barna's results:
The Associated Press analyzed divorce statistics from the US Census Bureau. They found that Massachusetts had the lowest divorce rate in the U.S. at 2.4 per 1,000 population. Texas had the highest rate at 4.1 per 1,000. They found that the highest divorce rates are found in the "Bible Belt."

Youre doing what I was talking about, I was saying that Uberman is NOT a religious zealout, he is just saying what he believes psychologically is happening. Youre defending your position without even paying attention to what I was saying, I wasnt attacking atheism or defending religion.
Im not getting pulled into a atheism/religion and who is right argument, I was trying to point out that I dont believe Uberman even believes in god (since you called him a religious zealot), that HE believes that the IDEA behind religion (the message, morals, and way of living) creates happier, more fulfilling lives than what many atheists have, who, because they dont believe there is any particular reason or meaning behind their lives other than their drives/desires can become jaded and miserable. (But like I said above, I personally know miserable christians and happily married atheists, so take it for what its worth).
I tend to agree with the psychology of what he says, much from my personal experience.
My point is dont argue just because your an atheist and you dont want to agree with what someone says, it undermines your belief and makes YOU look like an Atheism zealot.
This isnt something that can be proven one way or the other. Hardy anyone is going to say, "your right, my way of thinking produces less fulfillment and happiness in life than the way I despise and mock on a regular basis." --- This goes for both sides. So you can see the problem.
Anytime anyone who is on the outside points out something like this, one side or the other jumps to attack/justify theyre beliefs.
So in a way, hardcore christians/atheists both do the same damn thing. Same actions on the flip side. Of course neither of them will ever admit they act like the other. Lol.

Bolded are the key words. I can sit here and type what i believe all day. It doesn't mean it is right. That is what i do not like. Uberman posts what he believes as fact. By doing that you are only perpetuating ignorance. That's why we have people like the coach posting Rush Limbaugh transcripts as facts. People get confused over what is fact and what is belief.

Yes, it is what he believes.
Ironically in all this, he believes wholeheartedly the science of the psychology he reads as fact, which he uses to psychoanalyze people he's never met, never had any dealings with, but from his brief reading of their posts, feels like he can black/white describe everything about WHY they post the things they do, which makes me lol.
In fact, IMHO, from reading all of his posts, I get the feeling he is so obsessed with psychology and psychoanalyzing people is due to the fact that he has his own problems he doesnt want/cant deal with, so he diverts his attention to others to keep him from facing his own problems.
But Im sure he doesnt want to turn the science he uses on others, on himself.
Aside from that, I agree with much of what he says. Lol.

Spot on my friend. I believe he is a miserable individual myself and clearly VERY bitter about getting in shape.

Beeing big and juiced up is a good feeling but doesn't makes life easier or better.
Some years ago i was around 200lbs and i can't say i liked it much. I got recognition on the gym but that was it:
Everytime i got laid i was swetting like a pig.
Everytime i climb some stairs i had to stop and take my breath.
I was always hitting chairs and doors with my butt and triceps/delts.
Normal clothing didn't fit in some areas like arms and calves.
Girls kept saying i was to puff up and unsexy.
My dick looked smaller on the mirror due to larger quads
My car started to feel smaller.

Girls and sons who have not been loved by their fathers seek attention once teens and adults to compensate for what they didnt have originally. Fathers either left them alone, or were distant most of the time and not encouraging them. Some even despised them which would shape their personality and the way they d interact with others for the rest of their life.
They are extremistic in everything they do, always looking exageratly for attention, and have troubles adapting to society's rules, because they also have troubles defining their own identity and respecting authority and hierarchy.
Also boys who got picked on by others during childhood and adolescence -often sons without a father figure- try to compensate by lifting weights, to develop muscles and survive in ther male world. They re insecure because they re girly, childish, feminine having been raised by a single mom. They lift obsessively hoping it will transform them into men, to compensate for their lack of influence from a father figure that was not there. Unfortunaltey they can get as big as they can it doesnt cure their insecurity and who they truly are, how they grew up being raised by a single mom. They re no as manly as other men whatever they do, and they often have a big lack of masculine presence they dont know how to balance, hence often being borderline homosexuals while trying to get their manhood back thru various manly activities (mma, cars, weight lifting etc). They are often the ones that, in order to get respect from other males will go the steroids route to get even "bigger" attemptint to cure their insecurity , but being natural not being "enough", they still feel "too small", insecure, amongst other males. The lack of a father figure also often means they didnt have guidance to continue studies and are often working shitty manual jobs.

Some of these clouds think someone a little needle makes them 7 foot all of a sudden ::). Seriously the way some people in this thread talk about themselves. There's a small percentage of the population that will actually be impressed a much larger part of the population that are just wtf ???. This is how it goes with any hobbie or interest.

When you're dressed in more than a Tshirt people will think you are just fat...
bullshit even when i am fully covered up you can still see my neck and traps so you know i am buff, you must be fat and smooth so you only look decent in a t shirt.

as Bas Rutten said: "Roids are for f@gg@ts"

but roids literally make you more manly though. Testosterone is, after all, the hormone that makes you a man.
So perhaps you should educate yourself.

maybe the rewards are higher than the risks?........there must be a hidden secret/treasures that everyone else don't know about.... ::)
