(i found this on another site,what do you guys think?)
Bodybuilders should wear SHORTS and SHOES on stage
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now this may not be in many people's reality, and it certainly isn't in mine much of the time as I am a bodybuilding fan and check out pics and videos everyday, but the majority of guys out there think watching oiled up guys barefoot with a thong on is too homoerotic.
Although they appreciate guys with big muscles, and think it looks good, they don't want to see guys almost naked on stage.
Again, I forget this sometimes until I hear other guys' comments. Average joes I know comment on this kind of stuff when they see me looking at pics on my computer.
Now, one can look at these guys and say "Well f*#! them!" But I think that we can add more clothing onto bodybuilders without sacrificing being able to look at their physique.
Simply adding shoes and shorts that look like boxer briefs could do much to resolve this issue. The shoes would be low-top sneakers, so that the calves can be exposed. The only thing that it would cover would be the feet and nothing else. The shorts would be like boxer briefs, so that you can see the entire leg.
The only body part that would be hidden would be the glutes, which I personally do not mind sacrificing.
I've seen pics with Jay Cuter and Branch Warren in the gym, and they were only wearing shorts and shoes. The rest of their body was exposed so that you could judge their physique. I think this is a much better look and would appeal to a larger audience who could appreciate muscles but do not want to see "too much".
You guys think I'm onto something? Or do you want to keep it the way it is?

I think very quickly, it'd become torn-up shorts and workboots. Worse than before. IF there was a standard dress code, it'd be okay.
-
Ronnie wears combat boots, sunglasses and ass floss when he guest poses......you know, to make bodybuilding more legit and less gay ::)!!
-
well ................i know i would feel more comfortable june 10th in shorts
(i feel weird even at the gym in the aerobics room with nobody in there,stripping down to my "posing trunks" and practicing madatories and my routine)
some one had this response................ .
quit the stupid acts you f'n idiot. the man isnt gay or homophobic as he expressed he looks at the pictures all the times. your just trying to be cool and you look like an idiot.
i agree with RS3000 all the way. Well not really on the shoes (wouldnt that look weird, i mean these guys almost naked but with shoes on?) But I DEF agree with the fact that we need to get away with the thongs. The short shorts show off enough (no you dont need to see glute stirations, who wants to stare at a guys ass anyways and getting stirated glutes is maybe the most dangerous things to do in bbing what with all the dehydration involved, getting stirated glutes should be banned anyways). I run into the same problem as RS3000 all the time. Whenever I am at work and looking at pictures on a site, I cant tell you how many people come up to me and say "WTF are you looking at? Is that some queer site?" I tell them no its a bodybuilding site and they reply "Well your looking at oiled up men in thongs. Thats gay to me." now i know to us hardcore fans this isnt gay at all, but having these huge men walk around in thongs only further pushes the idea of all bodybuilders being gay....
-
Shorts would obscure shredded glutes.
Shoes would obscure massive, appositional growth (gH induced) metatarsals.

Mike, will you be doing any of those self-wedgies onstage?

lol!!
i really dont need/want to see another mans ass (striated or not)

hmmmmmm

hmmmmmm
that outfit is fine. But they'd only get more pink, more sparkly, and the shoes would look more and more like slippers or high heels over time. Imagine Kai Greene trying to 'outdo' Rodney St Cloud. it would be way gayer than any posing trunks.

IFBB or PDI black..................
just a thought

Yo Mike.....your gettin' close bro....
Don't forget to start drinking distilled water this weekend up till the show
Bring home a trophy dude !
Wait till you see what you look like after those first few coats of protan ...your gonna SH**

They should wear the old school trunks. Also what's the point of wearing shoes?

I own those EXACT trunks...Bill gave them to me when I was 16!

I'll admit that those revealing shiny tiny trunks that are worn on stage does give the impression that bodybuilders have fans who are homo gay. The truth is that fans want to see all the muscles of the male body including the ones around the waist. It's about showing as much muscles as humanly possible, including those glossy glutes, while barely covering up a bodybuilder's small (&$%#).
-
IMO, it should be an automatic loss of one placement if you give yourself a wedgie onstage. It automatically takes the show from rated PG-13 to R. And the only thing worse than the actual self-wedging is the catcalls and hooting from the 17 pocket pool champs in the audience who were just praying the Bber would do it.
-
I'm surprised Ronald hasn't just started wearing thongs to competition :-X

hmmmmmm
that's in the gym.. different story..
try thinking of clowns like there
-
Somebody should politely ask Mr. Oympia why does he expose his tight end.
-
It's easy. Just impose two rules:
*the trunks has to be 3 inches or wider when not being stretched out (or some homo will start with super stretch trunks)
*trunks have to cover at least 2/3's of the ass AT ALL TIMES through the contest.

i think BBers should pose naked... we could laugh at their small cocks (which would look REALLY small given their size) and their shriveled balls. ;D

agreed - the old school trunks are the way to go

i wanna see ronnie fold his thong up into his asscrack to show his shredded glutes while bouncing to the Thong Song

I think you should use this smiley - :P and make it's tongue appear bigger and in the centre, hanging out ;)

You're judging the physique and the lower back and glutes really show if an athlete is in condition. You wouldn't ask the figure or BB girls to wear something like a "hooters" outfit in competition would you? I don't even think the fitness/figure broads should have to wear a 1 and 2 piece. It should just be a 2 piece round and they're done. Some of those 1 pieces run into the $1000s. What's the point?

Why do we need to check the asses of male BB's?
If that's where condition is judged, I think condition isn't important.
However, I believe condition can be determined elsewhere.
Only the homos are going to argue the thong circus to keep going...

i think fitness chicks should definitely pose naked... that would put butts in the seats

hey God, could we say less SEXUAL

i agree here 100%
"progress" in this case ......................wa s bad
-
progress was...extreme.
-
I think Lee Priest already got that memo, remember those ridiculous red boots???
-
Old school trunks yes
New School Thongs no
Boots without clothes gay
-
I think the old 70's style posing trunks would suffice. The thongs make guys who should be trying to look masculine look like fags.
-
Why haven't a number of IFBB pros come together and collectively decide to retire those small trunks and tiny thongs?
One major example of the very gay look in bodybuilding is a photo in IFBB pro undercover's 39th column on bodybuilding.com that shows a obvious appeal to the gay community.

I WOULD RATHER SEE BBERS STOP OILING THEMSELVES UP THAN CHANGES IN TRUNKS AND WEARING BOOTS BULLSHIT. SIMPLE AS THAT.
-
The should just go naked, greased up and fully shaved on stage! Maybe bowties too.
-
What do you guys think??
Replace Jay's socks with shoes... 8)

I think very quickly, it'd become torn-up shorts and workboots. Worse than before. IF there was a standard dress code, it'd be okay.
from a female perspective....HELL TO THE NO! Now, if you want women in the Olympics that play beach volleyball to wear a less skimpy "uniform" , then we can negotiate. I am not offended by Olympic bikini uniforms, but all is fair in sports/athletics/physical competitions.

1 from a fan of physical culture i dont know why laced footware would be worn. bodybuilding is a physical demonstration display.
2. if i were a looking at it from a sexual point of view i might object to not wearing a thong and be in favor of the laced footware.

God. you can't write fucking comedy like this.
So the "He Man Homo Haters" club is officially in session. What happened, the new be nice to each other rules getting all your testosterone backed up, with no where to go?
Somebody sees you looking at a man on a computer in a posing suit at work. "Oh he must be straight, that new posing trunk and shoes really is the give away!"
You are LOOKING AT A GUYS MUSCLES. Reapeat....YOU are LOOKING and APPRECIATING another MALE BODY.
What fucking part of that do you not get?
What a bunch of imbeciles. You don't think that the some of the pros ARE gay? As a person who actually has met pro gay bodybuilders and straight bodybuilers who competed, they are very comfortable with their gay audience. At least the ones I met, not the numb nuts like the troglodytes that inhabit this place.
By the way, while you are JUST LOOKING at a body builder in, you know, just a appreciative way, why not just have them entirely in spandex?
I don't know who's worse. Jesus freak bodybuilders who think injecting steroids is a verse in the Bible, so it's OK, or Puritan freaks that think that bodybuilding can be purged of the dreaded homos with a costume change so they can tell somebody at work they are not gay.
I would venture to guess that 25% of the guys here spank it when they see a photo they like.
By the way, you would be freaked if you knew who plays for both teams. Posing suit not included.

Dude, its not about bashing homo's. Its about looking for some kind of legitamacy. With the whole glutes and homoerotic stuff it goes from judging/being impressed(not sexually) by a physique to stuff that is off-putting to heterosexuals.
-
Well the last time I looked in the Homo Lifestyle Guide To Fine Living, Chapter 15, there are many parts of a persons body that any one individual may find erotic. Oh wait...that's the same as you heterosexuals! One persons lust object of desire may be anothers turn off. Better cover up that ass, the homos DIG that! What is the hetero crowd looking at the guys ears? Wait, some heteros dig the back of a woman's or man's neck, arm, feet, toes, nipples.....
Just have two shows. One for the appreciative straights that only look at what counts and you can have them pose back stage via closed camera and fuzz out those wicked naughty bits on a screen on stage that make you squirm in your seat, and give your office workers the creeps.
Then the other show a free for all homo show where the actual guy is in stage in one of those disgusting queer bait posing suits.
We are ALL sexual. You may like seeing how your girlfriends boobs, the back of her legs, or the nape of her neck looks.
Same thing with gay guys. It's just the degree of your sexuality on a scale of completely Richard Simmons or stine cold hetero.
-
I think the original point was to make BB more appealing to the general public..........thing is it never will be.
Gotta face it there are lots of red necks and imature frat boy types in this country.

These shorts show off the legs

You just don't get.
It's about Bodybuilding currently being ridicilous.
And those wanting to keep the thongs, they're lusting for male flesh.
Lets put the oldschool posing trunks of the 70's back on. And the gaylords can have their "lifestyle" DVD's all they want. I have no problem with that.
