I had always thought body builders love themselves so they are narcisstic
Judging from what I've observed, the only ones who are narcissistic attention-seekers are those who talk about it 24/7, spam their social media feed with pointless videos/pictures where they flaunt their "gains," create countless threads about working out in forums that have nothing to do with that, belittle others who don't work out, etcetera. Alternatively, they could also have low self-esteem, and wish to boost it via having complete strangers on the internet compliment their supposed good looks. "Good looks"...yeeeaaah, about that..
So do they need guy for sex or for love? I had always wondered
Doubtful. Speaking as someone who worked as a receptionist at a local gym, gym rats are some of the fugliest mofos I've ever laid my gay eyes on. Hell, the only reason I even got the job was so I could learn their names, track them down on social media, and fap to their pics/vids and eventually catfish them. So you can only imagine my disappointment upon realizing that gym dudes aren't the super hot guys the media portrays them as.
Well, tbf, that's not
entirely true. Out of the dozens of male clients we had, there were a couple (that's right, just
two) who were legit attractive; handsome face to go with the hot body. As for the rest of them, my best guess is that they think to themselves something along the lines of "If I get buff, girls won't notice my face looks like it was pulverized by the ugly stick." Well, I'm not a girl, but I sure as hell noticed, lmao. And I'm p sure plenty of girls notice, too. I once said to the other two receptionists (both straight girls), "You know, those two guys over there are the only ones who are actually hot. The rest of these fuckers are hideous." And the moment I said that, both gals started giggling their asses off. So, they were fully aware of the repulsiveness of our male clients; I just had the audacity to say it out loud.
A body builder I used to know said most body builders are gay/bi because they feel that only another man can appreciate how hard they work to get their bodies.
Sounds like he's one of those twats who insult people or things by accusing them of being gay. Which wouldn't be surprising at all, since "gym bro" culture is brimming with homophobic cunts. Unless he's gay himself, and thinks that a dude complimenting another dude's physique automatically makes him gay; which, of course, is a silly way of thinking. In any case, I'm p sure a gay bodybuilder would feel indifferent or even skeeved out by compliments coming from a dude who looks like his mom was knocked up by the elephant man.
