WHEN WILL PEOPLE FUCKING REALIZE THAT

MEN

ALSO

ARE

GIVEN

UNREALISTIC

EXPECTATIONS

DO YOU HAVE ANY FUCKING IDEA

HOW IMPOSSIBLE IT IS

TO LOOK LIKE THIS???

IT’S 100% FUCKING ILLOGICAL TO EXPECT MEN TO HAVE THIS RIPPED SIX-PACK ABS AND BE SKINNY AND HAVE PERFECT SKIN AND FACIAL COMPLEXION! MEN ALSO EXPERIENCE BEING UNCOMFORTABLE WITH OUR BODIES ALL. THE. FUCKING. TIME.

I’m bringing back the REAL post. For those of you who care enough about how body image issues effect BOTH MEN AND WOMEN and how ignoring men with eating disorders or who have depression or deep insecurities because of their body image is not just ignorant, but it’s horribly insulting. Making fun of this post means you are telling men who feel degraded that they should feel bad about themselves and that they don’t mean anything. For everyone who reblogged the posts that made fun of this original post, shame on you. I’m very disappointed. Please share the original because this is an important issue.

Also raised to my attention is I neglected to add people of color to this post, I am sorry for my negligence so I shall add bonus images here of unrealistic expectations for men of every race, I chose Men’s Health Magazine because it’s extremely popular in telling men how to look:

No, guys, you don’t understand. I just got so relieved seeing this original post again that I nearly cried.

Here’s the original post without some of you asshats changing the pictures

This is actually the VERY FIRST TIME I’ve seen the original post, which goes to show how quickly people turned it into a joke. I confess that I did laugh at some of the absurd replacement images in the other versions, and I feel guilty for that now because I, like many, was missing an extremely important message.

To all of my male followers who struggle with self-esteem: I support you too. Even though I’m really quiet and have a bad habit of going weeks or months without posting, I WILL be there for you if you come to me wanting to talk or just vent. That’s a promise.

Another thing to note that in all, ALL, of those pictures the men are actively flexing. And often such defenition for shoots is exaggerated by dehydration, airbrushing and photoshopping. That chiseled look isn’t a look you can acheive at rest without literal implants. Here are 2 examples of flexed vs relaxed:

And you know what? Dollars to doughnuts none of the above muscular looking guys are as strong as these men:

These are strongmen. These are the bodies of men that train for strength, not defenition. These guys can practically lift cars and drag trains.

So men of the world that get depressed about not looking like you just stepped off a magazine cover, relax. You don’t have to look like that. You are handsome, beautiful and fantastic the way you are.

To all my beautiful boys <3 Please read and heed. You’re amazing, and you don’t have to look any particular way. This goes for transboys too. You’re handsome no matter what!!!

Guys, you’re beautiful or handsome, whichever you prefer no matter how you look and I’m so sorry that anyone ever told you or made you think that you weren’t.

GOOD POSITIVITY POST. YOUR BODIES ARE ALL AMAZING AND VALID BOYS

unus-annus-and-stuff

Go for a viking bod, its cooler anyway

brunhiddensmusings

just asking people to pause momentarily and consider how many men in your life have been living their whole life in a state that its considered socially acceptable and even funny to make fun of their body having hair, not having a six pack, to the point where the majority of males in cartoons are made specifically to accentuate that for comedic effect that its publicly acceptable to make fun of a man for balding, which is in no way under their control, neither was body hair, that them being pudgy is still seen as a moral failing on par with being a basement dwelling neckbeard to the point they are synonymous that you can readily come across men who have been openly insulted by calling them homer simpson, shrek, peter griffin, ect ask yourself ‘would i be an asshole for treating women like that’, if the answer is yes then you are an asshole for treating men like that as well, changing the gender does not change the ethics any more then how far you are punching down

Congrats, you're an anarchist

I literally went with my choices without overlooking what either of them would like-

Guess I found my kin-

Also yes-

Your a really funny person and because of your dark humor some people are even scared of you. Even under all of that it takes a lot to break you, but some people are too blind to see the little things you keep in do hurt you and it usually results in big outbursts of emotion. Stop saying you don't like to be touched when you would kill to have someone cuddle you. Oh! and cant forget your aband...

The fact that this is all true-

Tried to lie to myself about the touch part tho, but I do want to I just need to first trust them- I have trust issues

trust.png Description: Ranboo and Techno are walking Steve the polar bear in the Nether. Ranboo has his arms wrapped around himself as he talks to Techno with a sheepish expression: “I also hear, well, one voice, actually… It’s, uh, Dream’s.”

Techno is turned towards Ranboo, his expression teasing: “So you hear Dream’s voice. Do you have his stream open? Nah, I’m kidding.” Ranboo replied: “No! No-” End description.
