That's essentially my approach as well.  I rarely do one gender over-powering the other.  A good analogy lions.  A lioness is pretty strong and can hold her own.  She is strong enough to do the hunting, etc., but the male lion is still strong and masculine, in some ways stronger than the female, in other ways slightly weaker.  Overall it's a good balance of power.

true. and the only good reason. i like the look. i'm thankful that there are those ladies and that they have their sites and their life. i hope they continue what they are doing for a long time to come. in some ways they are an elite, and i'm aware of the fact that my so called deepest secret wishes of someday meeting one will not come true and i'm pretty sure that the ladies do not think very high of us artists or fanboys or whatever you want to call us, because it is easier for them to think of us in such a way, (we, at least i, regard them as sexobjects, which is not a very pleasing thought for them, i guess. ) so i try not to go deeper because that would not be satisfactory for either side and would only lead to mischief.

thank you ladies for the inspiration you are to me.

I think the days of female bodybuilders exclusively dating male bodybuilders are well and truly over, so you may one day get your wish. Don't forget that they are into the look as well, albeit from a different perspective, so at least you have that in common.

I'm not sure if all them look down on us fanboys, either. I mean a lot of us have a great deal of respect for the combination of genetics and dedication it takes to achieve that look. I think it's that unique mixture of sexual attraction and awe that makes them so appealing and it's hardly a reason to look down on us.

Oh and to get back on topic, if I had to be completely honest, I would have to say that the reason I draw muscular females is that's what I fantasize about, and I just draw what I see in my head.
