Adonis complex, anyone? We’re the ones who are supposed to take longer
getting ready. Primping, fussing and spending two hours in the bathroom
is traditionally the domain of women, and we like it like that. If she’s
the wash-and-go type, she’s even less likely to enjoy your obsession
with your appearance. In the book
Adonis Complex, author
Harrison Pope details at length stories of women whose partners became
so consumed with getting bigger that they allowed their relationships to
falter. Some of these guys spent so much time at the gym that they
rarely saw their partners, while others simply relished so much
obsessive attention on their bodies that their partners felt invisible
by comparison. Either way, it sucked for the ladies.
We're creeped out by your protruding veins
Ooh, is that a vein? Maybe I can give you a shot! Many men become so
infatuated with themselves they actually forget what's attractive to
women. Veins bulging out of your limbs, neck and even your forehead are
just plain gross. Veins are for the Incredible Hulk, not a normal man.
The stuffed sausage look is deeply distressing
Sausage -- delicious! But so delicious we like to be reminded of it
every time we see your bare arms? No, not really! Make it rain? More
like make it dry. When your insides look like they’re going to burst out
of your skin, it’s almost painful to look at.
Your tan shouldn't look like it has a smell
To be fair, orange skin tone doesn’t come from bodybuilding, but it does
come with the territory. Bodybuilders are so fixated with looking like
Arnold circa 1985 that they not only work out past the point of
normalcy, but they tan so hard they look like burnt hot dogs. Red,
leathery skin should be saved for a handbag.
