I was talking to a female friend and young Arnold Schwarzenegger came up on conversation. I pulled up a picture of him and spent a long time looking at it. Then said "I am trying to decide if he is attractive.

I know for me women who are fit and toned, attractive. Once a woman is muscular, attractive falls off a cliff. Probably because they start looking like a man.

The Arnold picture

    The most muscular women on earth had to take steroids to get there. The most muscular people on earth who don’t take steroids are men (not saying no men take them; don’t put words in people’s mouths). So, I could see that line of thinking, but it’s a needlessly prescriptive way of phrasing it.

      I’d love to see how you can’t make this relevant to the idea that women shouldn’t have large muscles.

      Please go on…
