There was someone on AMG today that I think really highlights this.

Compare this photo of Monia Gioiosa to this classic photo of Frank Zane.  Now, Monia doesn't have a strong male chin like Frank, but her face isn't that far off from "pretty" men, which I think includes Frank.  Take Frank, dress him up in Monia's garb, and how much difference would there be?

That's one of the things I fear about building muscle.  My breasts really aren't that big in the first place ($@#%!!), and I know that if I want to have very defined muscles I'll have to lose a lot of body fat, which means my breasts will likely shrink.  There's not much I can do about that other than get breast implants, but I don't want to do that for the same reason I don't want to take steroids for muscle growth… it's not natural. 

Naturally large-breasted muscle girls… It's definitely in the realm of fantasy. ^^;;

I don't think we can really know if it's 1% or 99% who see it either way… Of course from our point of view, it seems a little creepy because we big muscles as something sexy or erotic, but I'd echo i_am_not_herbert

sexualization…isn't that specific to the fetish shared by members of this board?  BB may be about aesthetics, but it's not about "erotic" aesthetics.

But honestly, I really can't say, I've never been to a bodybuilding competition.

Wow!  I have to say, it's a beautiful piece… but she just looks a little too… "cute," maybe?  I think I would have gone in entirely different direction, making her look more powerful, bigger and more… *hungry*-looking.  She does look sexy in this picture, but just not at all powerful or intimidating.

Honestly, I think it's cool. 🙂  They're talking about body image issues, but I think she's a positive role model… encouraging other girls to strengthen their bodies and make them healthy rather than turn to eating disorders to adhere to an unhealthy body standard pushed today.  It's refreshing.  The most reassuring part of this, for me, is that it was the little girl who became interested on her own.  A little kid wanting a strong athletic body instead of wanting to be a waify model? That's pretty damn cool.

Ah, I see.  Actually, I can understand the enjoyment of dominated completely, because it used to be what I was into.  But after changes in my love life… it just stopped doing anything for me entirely.  The only way I can explain is that I was shown a whole different outlook on sex with tenderness and appreciation.  So now the idea of being dominated just seems "meh" to me.  On the other hand, I can't really see myself as some kind of dominatrix, either… I'm too nice. ^^;  (unless you are talking about being sexually aggressive… in that way I can be a little too nice if I'm not careful to hold back)

Just promise me one thing, won't you?

Don't touch 'roids.  Please. :-*

Neeeeeeeeever.  I'd never use steroids, never ever ever.  First off… it's cheating!  How could I be proud of my body if I knew that I had taken shortcuts to get bigger?  If I'm doing this for me, what's the point of cheating? Secondly, I've seen the effects it has on women, robbing them of their femininity…. It's scary how manly some of these women end up.  Even if I sometimes get mistaken for a little kid on the phone, I'd rather that than be mistaken for a man every time.  :'(

I think it's a great pic of the sort of feelings I'd like to share with women like this.

As Mikazuki has said, a man's relationship with a physically superior woman doesn't have to be abusive or subordinate.  They can both be partners in a protective and loving relationship.

I guess it shows how new I am to this that the connection between being physically strong and being abusive never occurred to me for a second.  ???

Those two pics make me question my heterosexuality… x_x

It sucks that people get bullied for their muscle art… I dunno how my fans would react to my fetish art, but in the meantime I keep my muscle art in a separate, anonymous account. Only a few people I trust know of both accounts.
