    Before shooting shirtless scenes, male actors have to severely dehydrate themselves starting several days before filming. Their skin loses so much moisture it becomes thinner, forming a tighter contour onto the muscles.

    The actors themselves only look like this for 12 or so hours every few weeks at most.

    It’s literally less realistic than makeup

    This subreddit has interesting lore it started as a pinkpillfeminism offshoot, and with some femcels which they called themself that. The pinkpillers use to support FDS with everything, but the subreddit mods betrayed them, and start to embrace lookism, and started to focus more appearance more.

    I can’t help but wonder if that sub is mostly populated by men pretending to be women trying to make women look bad. Not saying that women are immune to being assholes, but it is :reddit-logo: after all, so I definitely wouldn’t be surprised.

      I’m sure there are a few men pretending on there but I have come across women before who genuinely hold these kinds of views. They’re super rare for sure but let’s face it so are incels and there’s enough of them to form various communities.

      One thing I’ve noticed in both is they seem to have developed this really weird and toxic ideology that really does seem to have a lot of its roots in the increasing commodification of everything including relationships. I’m not saying it’s the biggest cause or even a cause at all but a lot of the weirder shit seems to almost be an attempt to use something like I dunno a marketing algorythm or something.

    Aren’t literally all of the male MCU actors on record about how much of a pain in the ass it is to maintain that physique

    Fds is such as trip. Also pretty sure Disney gives him hardcore drugs to look like that

    Kinda gotta be a genetic freak to look like thst naturally with low time investment. Bf has also been exercising since he was 16 and has an impressive look about him but that’s what you get after 10+ years of investment without drugs . He still has a belly (with abs which is hot af I uh lick them all the time) when not cutting cause cutting is hell
