There’s female teachers at my school who (occasionally) wear camel-toe hugger running shorts, spindly arm and leg PE teachers who go around in flip-flops and sleeveless tee-shirts, and older female teachers who should be fined severely for wearing shorts that are even frighteningly close to revealing their knees.
And if I wear comfortable clothes on a teacher only work day, some jealous fat-ass starts talking about professionalism.
Also, no matter what size, shirts are just not cut right for me. If I reach overhead once they come untucked.
people automatically think i am the bouncer at whatever club i go to. the shaved head and tight black t shirt doesn’t help i know but come on…how often do you see bouncers actually dancing on the floor? sometimes i just think it’s people being passive aggressive wise asses.
I would say the worst part about being strong and big is that everyone runs in terror from me. I was hired for that scene in “Vanilla Sky” when times square was empty. Man it sucks. I have no friends.
Where are you in China? When I lived there I trained at this western style gym and there were some big ass mofo’s there. Also, China consistantly wins weightlifting in the olympics.
It is true though that the girls don’t like em big. The biggest dude at the gym I was at always talked about how his girlfriend was disgusted with his size, he just said “I don’t care! Big muscles are coooool!”
I was in Changzhou, Jiangsu province. About a million people there. About an hour or two west from Shanghai.

Agreed.
It seems to be incomprehensible for most people that you actually can come to a level where eating healthy foods is natural and doesn’t require any discipline anymore.
When asked, I usually tell these people that you can teach your mind to like certain foods but you can’t teach your body to produce the right results with the wrong foods. Apart from that, being fat with all that it entails would make me more miserable than the taste of oats or broccoli ever has…
While the everything in moderation advice usually is spot on, an all or nothing attitude proved much more helpful for me in this context.
““It seems to be incomprehensible for most people that you actually can come to a level where eating healthy foods is natural and doesn’t require any discipline anymore.””
All it takes is one perception for people to wake up.

Haha, you think that’s hot? You wouldn’t last down here in Texas…
““I have to explain to people who it is that I am and actually require my 10th grade ID as proof. It is the only way people remember what I looked like and that I am indeed who I claim.””
HAHA! That’s funny! I have never met anyone that had to do that.

This is me at about 250. I am obviously the buy on the right making the jackass face and eating a protein bar at a bar while everyone else drank.[/quote]
Not that I really care…but that does not look like someone who is 5’9 250 to me!
First of all I dont mind guys looking at me but I hate when they make eye contact. I lose my shit when they do.
Second, the food thing is annoying I have a serious problem wherein if im hungry and n ot eating I feel like my muscle is going down toilet.
Third, clothes are becomming and issue. All my buddies always ask me if my shirts come in mens. However everything I wear is large or extra large and it looks stupid as it is cause im only 5’8 and the shirts hang down way past my waist but myshoulders and arms fill them out so much that I get those stupid comments cause it looks tight.
Fourth, although I know chicks totally dig it they are definately intimidated by muscle and the only time they approach me is when Im bouncing and its cause they think its cool to talk to bouncers or some garbage like that. When I club I have to make all the effort. I used to always go by the rule “if I build it they will come” But now Im so big I think they run… But of course if i ripped off my shirt theyd all either faint or run outta the place holding their boxes screaming. Or theyd jump on me like in the axe deoderant bodyspray commercial.

Not only does the tight shirts blow… but when you’re shit outta luck and end up wearing them, alot of people think you’re a vain dickhead.[/quote]
Bro, not to call you out but you are 170lbs. Just buy a medium instead of a small.
People tend to size you up a lot more when you are built. I don’t know if it’s a Texas thing, well, among the cowboy-types for sure it is, but it also seems to bring out a bunch of insecurity in many guys, especially if their woman, or any other women for that matter, look at you. I used to get that shit at the club all the time, and I’m not even that big.

I’m not huge but I live in China so I’m plenty more muscular than 99.99999999% of the population. People look at me and on occasion strangers will come up and feel my arms (one guy in the shower lifted my balls and gave me the thumbs up, I didn’t hammer him out because I understand it’s some sort of strange cultural difference and not homosexual tendencies).
During the winter when I was up to about 215 pounds I was often told I was fat, even though I was probably about 14% body fat (not ripped but not real fat) to the Chinese even large pecs or big arms are simply fat. The most muscley Chinese guys at the gym weigh in at 170 pounds and have 5% body fat.
Also Chinese girls don’t like the large size. Most of my girlfriends tell me I looked better at 170 pounds as opposed to 200 (where in the west it would be the opposite).
The last thing is that since I’m so much bigger than everyone here even if someone starts shit with me I can’t rightly beat the hell out of him. It just wouldn’t be fair. [/quote]
Hey man, where do you live in China? I live in Taiwan and I get the same thing. My female friends are always saying “don’t get any bigger!” One chinese girl (well, they’re all chinese, really) even freaked when I reached up to grab the handle on the MRT, “Eewww, your muscles look like eggs!”
I get the thumbs-up from little dudes everywhere I go too. Taiwanese are so wacky.
Alright. This thread is definately getting my vote for the most pathetic.
You bo-zos are making me laugh.
“Boo-hoo my shirts are too tight”.
Like one of the posters said…try switching to a medium from x-small.
“Guys check me out all the time.”
Sounds to me like your the one doing the checking out and eye contact. How the fuck would you notice otherwise?
“Girls are scared of me.”
Thats because no amount of lifting will change the fact that your an ugly motherfucker. The only difference now is that you’re also covered in zits.
I love these stupid stories.
“Everyone thinks I’m a bouncer”
That’s because you act like a fucking idiot swaggering around and giving dirty looks.
All you big tough guys…this is my advice…
Be more humble. There is nothing cooler than a easygoing big dude. You know he is in control of his world and doesnt need to do any postureing. He knows he’s big cause he’s worked hard to get there and doesn’t give a rat’s ass what anybody thinks.
It’s the little big guys that walk around angry all over the place with rolled up sleeves and tight t-shirts squinting around and daring anybody to look his way even though that’s exactly what he wants.
