They did social experiments of this on youtube. One guy had a dad bod and the other was jacked/ripped to shreds. They asked the girls which one they’d marry and which one they’d wanna have a one night stand with. The answers were obvious, with a couple girls immediately asking for the jacked guy’s number lol.

Of course they mostly voted the Chad for one night stands and the dad bod for husband.

If there's one thing I've learned about women it's that you should never listen to what they say. Watch what they DO and that will tell you all you need to know. I've been training consistently for 12 years and once I got to 205+ with 10% bf they practically cream themselves when I'm at the pool/beach or wearing a sleeveless at the gym. The women in this study are lying to themselves and everyone else. I'm also awkward as chit. Doesn't matter.

Just lol. Even if it was true, is that supposed to stop us gymcels from continuing to build our super developed deltoids? ^ like some fellow brahs said ^, build some muscle and be/get lean, then see how women really react in the real world. Not online surveys.

dad bod is like a basic bitch Toyota prius.

Being jacked, fit, lean and shredded is a Lamborghini.

There is this chick, part of our friend group.

She is 27 or so, widowed (her 29 yr old husband died of cancer, was a really good friend of mine. Sad AF) She has a child, so shes a single mother obviously. She is a good looking chick.

She always post little memes about dad bods. Posted one yesterday and it just has me lol'ing. Was some kind of tiktok meme about when she sees a fit guy and its just the girl looking around aimlessly like she gives 0 ****, then "when she sees a dad bod" and the chick starts dancing.

Yet everytime this girl comes over to my house with all our friends, she just eye ****s the **** out of me and one of our other friends who are both in good shape. When its summer time she is always eye ****ing me with my shirt off on the river. Matched me on tinder once and I didn't respond to her message ( was too good of friends w/ her deceased husband not going that route ) But when she matched me, she screen shotted it and sent it to one of our other friends like OMG.

LMAO. Fact of the matter is, she says that as cover, when in reality she wants a fit guy in shape.

100% truth right here. It's a different version of "money cant buy happiness". It's a cope slogan for the poors. People say it, but they don't really mean it.

Of course they prefer dad bods they don’t have a chance with in shape guys so they COPE. Also, half of women are even heavier than the above pic, lmao.

Yeah the term is super vague. From a little soft to full blown fatass.

90 days to six pack abs or 2 years.

Mamoa can be there in 90 days. Sandler would take a year easily.

If you're financially well off, it's a good thing. It means you've been putting more effort into getting successful as opposed to the gym.

This was a study conducted in Twitter , WokeWorld where being a fat phuck is healthy spite almost every health professional , medical scientist , etc. etc... saying otherwise. Furthermore the control group of said study in WokeWorld likely are fat phuck virgins , lesbians , awkward , salty pieces of trash who could never get past moderate dad bod level because $hit genetics and excuses in general because they cant just threaten to cancel it.... because it hurts their feelings

And lastly , I will allow your ONEITIS that you fapsize to on the reg to use my abs to wash her panties...

good day *******s

It all depends. Compulsion towards the physique and aesthetics will manifest in your appearance and dry women out like the Sahara. If you live naturally without obsessing about macros/exercise it will also manifest accordingly, and attract women. When it comes to exercise and diet, FEELS are more important than logic. Bodybuilders get their physiques by logically analyzing exercise and diet to get the result, and women couldn't be more repulsed. The more attractive person WORKS OUT and EATS to FEEL GOOD, primarily, not achieve an outcome.

Good, push this propaganda to the retards so they stop crowding the gyms with their mediocre workouts, because it’s “cool” to workout.

Why not both, dumb*ss?!

Stop with your ridiculous stereotypes!

Just because someone is a physicist for example doesn't mean they can't weight train/bodybuild as well.

Jeez, what's with these stupid stereotypes?!

Bet all you muthaf*ckas are as unsuccessful and poor as you were a year ago, despite gyms being shut. What a loada cr*p!
