What the above-mentioned forms of entertainment do wrongly is that they tend to oversimplify the image of the muscular man. But that’s their only sin. They definitely are not choosing for us - we are choosing for ourselves!

WHEN TOO MUCH IS TOO MUCH

A couple of years ago, there was, a Danish study, I think, that showed that 65% of men, no matter their sexuality, get aroused when being shown a picture of an athletic male torso. The result of this study is actually quite ground-breaking, because it is not so much about muscles but about low body fat! If you are not particularly ripped, but you are one of the lucky ones whose body fat index is somewhere between 8 and 15%, then you know that you don’t need to be musclular to make heads turn. Actually, the truth is that most gay guys like men who are fit, and not over-musclular, in fact, an Arnold Schwarzenegger look can be a turn-off rather than a turn-on.

The reality is that the ripped, muscled body type is unattainable for most of us. That’s why gay men obcess. Perhaps its the less we have of something, the more we cherish it. Yes, muscled male bodies are hot, and we have to blame the ancient Greeks for forcing that stereotype upon us, where the chizelled male body was venerated. And yet, no matter how attracted we are to all the Zac Efron’s out there, we should always remember that it’s a guy’s personality, and not his body, that makes or breaks the deal.
