- Hi everyone! Today I will be talking about the Body Profile trend in Korea.
Although I do think it can have a positive impact on our confidence, we cannot ignore its long-term negative impacts on our mental and physical health.
What do you think? Let me know down in the comments below and let's have an open discussion.

The anti calf-definition trend is crazy to me! I live in the Netherlands, so I cycle almost everyday as a means of transport. I couldn’t imagine girls and women here giving up cycling because they are afraid of muscle definition.
i swear this is the weirdest sh i ever heard
OMG what, I'm trying to workout just so that I can make my calves bigger, because I've always been ashamed of how "small" they are, and meanwhile there are people who want to get rid of them??? I guess we always want what we don't have :/
how would you react if i told you in my country there is a very popular and illegal surgery that basically cuts off some nerves in your legs so your muscles shrivel from atrophy and you get thinner calves as a result. it was exposed around this time last year because a lot of women became crippled from it.
@@juliayang3294 that’s absolutely horrible :( which country? I feel so bad for all the people who had that done
@@goodmorning2386 it's China I think, I watched it in a documentary abt Chinese beauty standards and how cosmetics and surgery capitalize on young women
It’s really sad how corporations profit off of people’s insecurities with no remorse at all. Some years ago, I got some non-invasive massage procedures to get rid of my cellulite. They acted like it was permanent, so I thought it _was_ permanent. I never would’ve wasted my money if I had known just how temporary it was.
Wait so did the massages work?
Lord Jesus Christ is coming back everyone, please don’t worship celebrities and entertainment, focus on Him alone. I promise there’s more to life than money, partying, homosexuality and music. Hell is real, repent from sinning confess your sins and ask God to forgive you, I know He will if you’re sincere. Anyone who thinks the Name of Lord Jesus Christ is a joke, boldly mocks and scorns Him or takes pleasure in people who do is in for a big unpleasant surprise on judgement day IF they don’t repent and follow Lord Jesus Christ. Hell is very hot, people please repent! In the mighty name of Lord Jesus Christ, Amen 🙏💪✝️💜❤️✝️!
Idolatry such as, Islam, Catholicism, Sangomaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Santa Clausism, Confucianism, New Age, Science, Evolution, halloweenism, Harry Potterism, Politics, Donald Trumpism, Easter Bunnyism and other religions/faiths that are outside Biblical Christianity lead to hell! Don’t believe them, believe the Almighty God the Father of Lord Jesus Christ, who begot Him. Our Creator, The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is mighty, He doesn’t need a woman to beget a son, He is God. I choose to put my faith in a God who can do anything and everything, a God who has unlimited and infinite power to beget!
So, it’s time to confess that Lord Jesus Christ is the Lord and to believe that He died and rose from the grave after three days and you shall be saved if you only obey Him by praying, worshipping, praising, reading the Bible and living holy and righteously according to the Bible. You have to endure until the end, carry your cross daily and build your relationship with God by following Lord Jesus daily until the end. You must never renounce your faith in The Lord Jesus Christ, there’s hell awaiting those who reject/deny Lord Jesus Christ and those who continue living sinfully, even the Christians who don’t want to repent will face the same fate, so please repent beloved people, in Lord Jesus Christ’s mighty and precious Name, Amen.✝️
@@The_Super_NOVA honestly, I saw no difference lol
So how did you get rid of it?
@@izana1993 Everybody has cellulite because of uneven distribution of fat underneath the skin. I'm assuming that she might be suggesting weight loss but even then, not all cellulite might not go away. They are pretty permanent.
Sorry, let me clarify:
Fat cells never go away once they are formed. They might shrink and collapse when there is weight loss so cellulite will always be there. The best way of "getting rid" of them is prevention. If you never develop more fat cells, you will not develop more cellulite.
the main issue i see with the "body profile" trend is that people are just dieting very badly still aiming for the 45kg but trying to have a defined body, In the gym I work out if you tried to do that they just would accept up cause it's just not the right way to do it.
what I don't understand is how it was supposed to be "take a picture of my young days showing how I was healthy" but doing unhealthy diets and unhealthy workout routines to get there... and also feeding into unrealistic body beauty standards... like no one is like that all the time because it's unsustainable, but people are gonna see that and feel bad because they don't look like that while everyone else seems to do it... and it can also get people into some crazy eating disorders and body dysmorphia...
surely it is a way of getting some motivation on having a better diet or more exercise, and also a way to remember how you were, but people are doing it very extremely...
14:44 problem with it is, once again, it's about LOOKING fit and LOOKING healthy.
Plenty of skinny people aren't fit and healthy. Crash dieting to get in shape in a short period of time is also not really healthy long term. I don't know if you can be described as fit or healthy if
you're genuinely not planning to continue it.
I sincerely think that, nothing about this trend is 'okay'. It is a hazardous marketing technique for gyms to get more money. And beauty trends like this are extremely dangerous especially for the young and naive people. It's just sad
lol in the states people know you’re rich if you’re tan. It means you can afford to take vacations. In Asia you’re poor if you’re tanned because it means you’re outside working all day. I enjoy being a dark Asian.
And in my asian friend's perspective "if I'm white that's mean I'm poor & i can't eat" 😂
cause it's mean he was jobless and just being at home. Cause he work in outdoor field 😂
Lmao this whole thing with “if you’re Tan, then you’re rich” or “if you’re pale, then you’re rich” stuff is dumb. When you’re rich you can afford to either stay inside OR be outside more than the average person, so a rich person can be either more lighter skinned or more tanned. Skin color got little to do with it.
People dont see tan as being rich in the US. Its generally an aesthetic people like to do to their skin here... as a way to look "lively" and full of "color" i guess.
That aside im part of the small group that doesnt tan myself, avoids sun exposure, and wears sunscreen when i have to go outside/work during prime sun hours. Lol. Personally i do it to keep my skin looking youthful and preventing sun damage. I dont find tan people attractive, i think it looks careless and lack of self respect to the body we've been given. But my opinion matters not lol.
Has nothing to do with wealth.
Its also very easy to get burned in /everyday/ life without having to go on vacation. It is cumulative. It actually takes a lot of effort not to color/burn/damage your skin during summer time.
Its also very common to see people born with light skin looking like permanent red lobsters with leathered skin in adulthood from all the everyday sun exposure and lack of sun care. Thats just from a decades of neglect - not vacationing. Lol. Hopefully I've cleared up some misconceptions.
Cant speak for asia. Maybe thats more true as a status symbol...
"People know you're rich if you're tan." Nope. Do you live in the states? Lol.
In Louisiana, if you could tan, and tan well, it meant you were rich in heritage and that's what everybody wanted. 😉
Honestly this trend is very concerning. It's basically body checking, which is a huge eating disorder/disordered eating issue. These people are going to suffer to make sure they stay that small weight and it's not like it's easy to maintain. I think its just going to cause a new wave of body image issues that people already have and struggle with, but with the guise of being healthy.
was hoping to see this take! as someone that has struggled with orthorexia, I find this trend pretty disturbing as it just normalizes and even promotes an unhealthy relationship with food (restriction) and exercise
Koreans' obession with beauty is sometimes scary and seeing people being so obssessed for one picture is devastating to me.
I understand that for your wedding or for an occasion you want to look good but as the RUclipsr that you mentionned said the key is being consistent and working with a long term mindset to alwaya look good. This crash diet are dangerous
I agree. Weddings and other occasions have large symbolic meaning in many cultures and the pictures are memory of that. But the picture being the main goal is bit uncomfortable for me.
I really appreciate how you discuss the problems of korean beauty standards and culture in a realistic way! I feel like a lot of international k-culture fans have this really glamorised view of the society that is not representative of what it's actually like.
It sounds like a step in the right direction. Like you said, there's some downsides like gyms only making it a short-term thing and such, but on the whole I think eating properly and exercising is a *way* healthier lifestyle than the previous "skinny at all costs" beauty standard, which was basically just starvation and bulimia.
There's a club in Seoul called Monkey Beach. If you climb up a ten-foot pole and ring a bell at the top, you get a free bucket of alcohol. The catch is, you have to be a girl. I had fun going there because climbing up a pole is pretty easy for foreign girls (especially if you hug the pole with your knees) but none of the Korean girls were strong enough to do it (haha). That's when I first realized the beauty standard was quite different. Western girls wanted to look fit and healthy; Korean girls wanted to look dainty, delicate, and helpless.

I'd guess the problem with this new trend is "exercise and not eating properly" rather than just "not eating properly" 😂
both are bad, I just guess people should be less extreme...
but I hope it motivates people to eat better and exercise more in general...
The 'helpless' part took me out please. Lol
but there's bone structure difference between races as well, no? aren't asian girls generally smaller?
@@peachbooks3199 depends on the person. IMO and observation (i'm Korean), there are girls who are naturally slimmer with slender bone build but there are a lot of girls who are not. So the girls who are not naturally like that have to doubly put in effort to eat less & exercise to fit a certain look.
2:42 Beauty should never be about pain.
I get the "beauty takes time" or "beauty takes effort" mindsets, I disagree with it but I can understand it.
But beauty should never be linked to pain, because then it stops being about beauty and it starts being about always running after an "ideal".
As a Korean native, this trend is heard very often but nobody around me has done it lol. I think ppl who has inner desire to be famous or celebrity, influencer etc try this trend. Feeling of being important person being surrounded by photographers is maybe important for them.
I do hear this from native koreans often- that yes, these kind of issues do exist but normal people don't really care about them- is that true? Because if that's the case then many foreigners might be having a skewed perception of korea (all korean men are like this, all koreans are this and that, etc, like they tend to generalise to make it that EVERYONE is this or that)
@@shelby3755 Yeah. It is true. These days so many ppl fantasize and demonize Koreans at the same time. We are just ppl. I lived in SK whole my life being exposed to Kpop and Kdrama but never felt any pressure to be pretty or skinny 😬 I don't even wear a make up. People expect all of us to have done plastic surgery and have obsession about this and that but truth is many of us are just chill potatoes doesn't give a shit how we look lol.
@@shelby3755 also it takes about 2000-2500 dollars to have personal training and professional studio photoshoot for body profile. Average SK monthly income is about 2400-2500 dollars. Not everyone can affort the luxury just for fun.
People need to realize these type of videos focusing on 'dark side of Korea' are informative but also a trend which is a source of money for youtubers by attracting many views. As a result, it can be exaggerated. I am a woman and a very active feminist so no intention to minimize gender discrimination in SK. But when I saw a video of a Korean husband supporting her wife participate fitness model competition, I saw a english comment got a THOUSANDS of likes. It was saying "wow. I heard South Korea is very patriarchic so never expected him to be that supportive. Glad he is nice to his wife!" Lmao. What do they think we are 😂 It is just average family. They might thought Korean man would lock Korean woman in house and force them only to cook? Too much of a generalization happening in this youtube. Patriarchism in Korea is not 'being rude to your wife'. There are more dynamics in our society. I know it is hard for foreigners to understand but sometimes the level of ignorance is almost racist 🙄 too funny how ppl expect us to be a 'STRANGE MONSTRS'.
@@roar5853 That’s what I thought as well. Because people’s views on Korea (both natives and foreigners alike) tend to be SO vastly different from each other, sometimes it’s hard to discern what’s actually true and what’s not. There are people reporting very pleasant experiences of Korea and its people and there are people who claim the exact opposite. I guess the fetishization and idealisation of k-culture was what led to this in the first place. 🤷🏽♀️Just like a few decades ago when it was America, not East Asian countries like now, that was being idealised with ‘the American Dream’ and everything. And then realised it wasn’t that great of a place (at least how they had originally envisioned it to be) after all.
This is why I'm glad body positivity was and is spreading.
Theres a lot wrong with the fitness industry that leads to a reduction of health which is shame because the goal is to have an improvement of health both physical and mental. Most people dont know what they're talking about when it comes to fitness, as they just believe anything they read on the internet, even sometimes 'professionals' dont share the right info to their clients, but instead just tell them what they want to hear.
This trend is very real. I told the gym I didn't want to pay for the photos. I just wanted weight training. And the trainers "meal plan" would have ruined my metabolism for sure.
I do think not having calf muscle is kinda dumb. Imagine walking in the hill everyday but not gaining any muscles? Also, being pale is a beauty standard? How about Asian people with tan or dark skin? They are born that way, are they not beautiful? Beauty standard is really dumb.
I wonder if another part of the allure of "try-harding" for body profile pics is getting to feel like a celebrity through photoshoots, photoshopping, and getting lots of attention on social media. Being the focus, the "star of the show", of a photographer, workout trainer, and netizens could be an ego boost and feed narcissism? Idk just throwing that out there
@aichi narcissists are usually very insecure. non-narcissistic insecure people don’t post pics of themselves half dressed. it’s a trend for narcissists and people craving praise
@@TaureanTruth that’s where you’re wrong. If it’s only a narcissistic thing then all of these social media companies wouldn’t be as successful as they are. Socially it is pushed to do this.
It saddens me to see the younger generations being so obsessed with their youth; it's so fleeting and they don't even get to enjoy it cuz they're too busy trying to show off an unsustainable ideal image. It'll be no surprise to me if suicide rates increase in the next 2 decades due to people's warped sense of self worth.
I also see the kind of switch happening between in Korea bc I pay attention to a lot of the Internet culture in Korea of how people are starting to become more fit and more curvy and simultaneously I live in the west (usa) and it’s becoming a lot more trendy to be on the slimmer side/ on the skinnier side not have as many exaggerated curves anymore
As an American in Korea, I've done body profile a couple of times and enjoyed it, but I did a milder version. I've seen people lose 16kgs in 2 months crash dieting for it. Not sustainable. Thanking for shining a light on it!
Doing this for yourself seems fine, but this have many dangers coming with it with the comparison anxiety as many have had in the "west" since the at least the 80s or 90s. It seems to just shift the focus of the body focus while perhaps putting even more emphasis on it, which will not lead to anything good.
Thanks for sharing!
Find a man that will love you into old age, when your beauty fades. My wife and I truly love each other.
I like people the way they are without them spending thousands of money whitening or blackening their skin or having lots of plastic surgeries. You look pretty as you are, you have a beautiful face, Sienna ❤️
All these beauty standards are rediculous, people should be accepted for who they are not how they look. Where I live, it's all about being brown and bronzer even when you are naturally white. I am really pale and I can't tan but I refuse to make myself look brown!
Thank you for the recommended video, and of course making this one. I didn't realise this could be a thing because people usually usually work out for a "summer body" but this sounds so intense (especially with the added photoshop on a body you already beat yourself up for)😭
This kind of extreme dieting and exercising thing is very common in bodybuilding, but what these people taking body profile pics don’t realise is that people often cannot be that lean all the time, and they panic when they gain all their weight back once they start eating normally again.
It seems to promote that lean = healthy just because you have a six pack and muscles, when in fact it’s not necessarily healthy to be that low in bodyfat.
At the end of the day while this trend is a bit better than ‘be as skinny as possible’, it’s still not really about health. It’s about looks.
Hi Sienna ♥ Your right! You need to please yourself take pics that make you feel good, and what makes you feel Beautiful and you are ♥♥
Absolutely! thank you for watching my video :)
I'm old enough to be your mom - it's soooo cute to your retro posters from cartoons that are older than me! I grew up on all those, What you know bout that?!!! Lol!! 😊 keep up the good work young missy!
Holy sh!t she’s pretty 😍🥹 sorry just had to say it💗 also new here ! Glad to have found you🙋🏻♀️💜
how is that photo revealing when most female idols are wearing shorts and tanks. sometimes it almost looks like swimsuit...
oh my! you're popping out content so fast!
HAHA it's a passion of mine! ^^
Love your posters. They reflect a person with classic tastes!
i was actually looking for someone to talk about bodyprofile trend and tahdahhhh
I always do whatever I want. Sometimes I'm in shape. Sometimes I'm out of shape. I'm always doing something though. Physically, mentally and soulfully. I'm very healthy. Then I go to sleep for 7 and a half to 8 hours.💪😴 I wake up, eat good and do whatever I want again. As long as I respect people around me.
Your background posters are sooo freaking cute!!! Love 💕 Love 💕!! This was super interesting!! Big Aloha 🤙🏽 from Hawai’i 🧘🏽♀️🧉✨
Ahhh thank you so much❤️❤️
Not that my opinion matters, but it's a crying shame that people want to be not only skinny but stick thin without muscle tone. If you're naturally that way then fine, but that's pretty damn rare. People should at least want to get fit which usually creates some bulk and tone in some areas.
I love your content it's very interesting and it help me a lot to understand Korea good and bad parts. Love from France🇫🇷
Yeah I would do a body profile but not to be extra skinny with showing abs for a day…would gladly do it with my bf we need to loose weight for health reason but keeping nice pictures of ourselves is good. I just would not book months in advance and fail to meet the deadline and only eating chicken breast for 6months to get in shape
Any standard of beauty is toxic.
In Korea there are also cultural issues, the need for people to show off, to follow.
Why do you use insta? Some people don't because they don'\t care what others think about them.
Very insightful
This is why I like the French idea of 5 I think highlights your unique flaws. They are seen as beautiful. Saying that skinny is still the ideal here.
I guessing the bodybuilding culture (contests) isn't very big in Korea?
Fitness is big in korea (not as much in JP)
love the posters!!!
“Im not hating..it’s just weird how” lol
Wow im hearing this of trend for the first time
You should be able to take professional photos or body photos without it being all about your body. Maybe some people just want to take a cool photo. 🤷🏻♀️
In South Korea I would think it is more about the body than anything. They put huge emphasis on appearances there.
Who in their right mind could be against calf muscles in women? Korean women with calves is like the best combination ever....
The entire modeling and makeup industry is degrading to women .....imagine an industry trying to "define what beauty" is
Im the end, no matter what you will be jugde for people that actually they're not interested in you. Just ignore that, and follow your own standard, love yourself.
You deserve more subscribers
So excited to watch this!! Thank you sm for the frequent uploads, I am literally obsessed with you and your videos. Especially ones where you talk about your own observations and experiences or just things about Korea that no one ever talks about
If you're east asian you know how people will call you "too westernized" or "easily influenced by the west" to shut down any negative opinion you have about the local norms even if you yourself also grew up with them. If you moved to live outside of east asia then you're westernized too. God forbid you're half east asian, because if so then it doesn't even matter if you have been outside of east asia or speak english lol, you will be labelled as westernized 😀 I'm half Chinese and grew up in a fully Chinese community, pretty much detached from my non chinese side. Idk if they're inclined to do so because I'm not full Chinese but a lot of Chinese ppl at first brush will jump at the opportunity to ideologically separate themselves and you istg 😭 even some of my close friends will act crazy when i wear off shoulder tops like lmao
Super skinny is soo unattractive to me as a guy from US and I'm Asian. Korean beauty standards is ridiculous.
I love listening to your videos so much! Maybe you should start a podcast or something 🫢
One day!! I would love to
honestly it's sound more like the pinnacle of narcissism than anything "empowering" because at the end of the day, you get satisfaction from the external view on something that is temporary. don't get me wrong, it's important to take care of your body, primordial to cherish it too and be proud of how you look etc. but to me, body profile is a very weird to get there. i must admit i find it hard to believe that people feel "elevated" or "saw the light" after this experience, considering all the relevant points you adressed in this video
5:05 Girl, You never know👀
Mfers paying a professional photographer just to get approval while I only upload photos of my cat on ig. I'm not ugly at all btw I just don't want to play that popularity game
LOVE FROM INDIA MAAM
AND LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
(IF POSSIBLE MAKE VIDEOS RELATED TO INDIA AS WELL OUR COMMUNITY LOVE KOREANS TALKING ABOUT INDIA )
HI~~ thank you so much! I'll try to see what content I can make for you!
More power to the girlies who do this but as a sufferer, I know orthorexia when I see it.
Hi there. When you were talking about the cost of the pictures and the like, what currency were you referring to? I want to get a full picture of what is going on. Thank you. Stay safe out there. Take care and God bless
Spilling all the tea☕👏🏼
❤
Hi Sienna, you look so beautiful.
From your sam-choon Mike
Have you ever been to India? If not then you should explore it.
again its all ✨trend✨ people dont actually care about there bodies they just wanna do what will make them cool for the momment. then thell get all upset if you talk against itand be like "but its good no?" no kim jerry no...
Honestly people all around the world chase the most stupid things in life. They become so easily manipulated with those pointless ideals. At the end they take advantage of you. Even the local gym is su cking out their money damn xd.
Ha ha craziest story I've ever heard. Work out just to take a photo then just stop and fall apart. BACKWARDS SUPERFICIAL EASTERN THINKING. Fitness is a life long process. I am 54 and I'm jacked, look at my videos... you never stop Fitness training you just keep going.
Very beautiful shots.
Thank you for the video!
Nice setup, I love the posters. You can improve it further by removing your shadow so it will be perfect
Before you make positive videos about SK, can you do a video about your horror story as an intern, I think you mentioned in a past video that you wanted to make one since it was long
Anything is better than just one unique ideal I agree with that. Working out is good for health and thats the best of it. Everything else tho, totally unnecessary.
It's a shame that Korea has this colonization mindset. Beauty comes in a spectrum of shades.
she already said its not colonization... Before Colonizers came, pale is beautiful because those people don't have to work under the sun/must be rich.
@@ta0304 Absolutely. Many of the modern beauty standards aren’t common looks among East Asians. The fair skin standard did come before colonization. But having a pink skin undertone seems popular in beauty trends. Pink undertone is common in some groups of Westerners/Europeans. The “Russian elf” look was very popular at a point. Colored contacts & blonde hair is popular in Kpop (idk if it is outside of Kpop). I’ve seen White people being praised for their beauty who wouldn’t be considered very attractive in the West.
@@chiiix33 The worst part is people think that POC getting shamed for their skin color is bad but on the other hand it's somehow a compliment for White people when East Asians perpetuate these standards. In reality a lot of Asia fetishizes White people and it's not a compliment for White people at all. I don't know why people never speak about that, I'm sure it's quite uncomfy for them to be seen as objects/procreators/idols and not as human.
@@seriouslystop7494 I get what you're saying. I think it would definitely make some White people uncomfortable. But in all honestly, humans love hierarchy. A lot of White people experience an elevated sense of self when POC put them on a pedestal. It doesn't make them "evil" or horrible, but it is the reality. That's how it is for most social standards. The people who fit the standard are very likely to develop a superiority complex about it, and that complex varies based on each individual.
Hey... I saw u on one of the show...it's says something like... Struggle for job (rejections).
Sorry if I am it was out of line...
Anyway.... Good to see u.. ☺
Good video
Your the best ❤ U
I feel sorry for the youth of today.

*I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE BEAUTIFUL WOMAN LIKE THIS.*
Did Jessi start this trend?
How it should be nowadays:
Pale: you're a office rat or a nerd struggling for money and time.
Tan: you're rich and always hang out, go to the beach and enjoy vacations traveling.
I would disagree.
associating certain skin colors/skin tones(which most of us are born with and is genetic) with a particular 'lifestyle' or socio-economic status is a bit redundant.
I get where u are coming from but this isn't going to solve the colorism problem
@@hhf8124 how this misconception should be nowadays*
I take it only extroverts can be rich now?
I called them skinny bird legs.
The pale color is to look like white European or white American.
Because being white is good in the eyes of Korean.
That's not true; the Korean obsession with pale skin is rooted in historical classicism because back when they had royalty, the wealthy would be pale since they didn't work outside like the underprivileged people, who had darker skin.
Did you have lip fillers by chance?
😍
Have u ever been to the UK?
Its obvious that you have done cosmetic procedures on your face yourself.
🔥♥️
Do you only like white and Korean dudes
no, it is horrible :/
I really think if you are white skin you are most closely to be white people which is something that most Asians admire why I have no idea?
Imagine men disliking that women find tall men attractive and hoping media trends will make short guys attractive to women. Yeah I don't think so. Skinny women, be skinny healthily and you will be worshiped. Avoid tattoos and sun damage
Wanting to look good and following trends has only partly to do about attracting men. Most people just wanna feel confident in they're skin. If u get shoved impossible or unhealthy beauty standards, it would be in ur best interest to change the representation of what is healthy and widen the understanding of beauty. Including the height preference thing
@@venus-ok4op
There is no obligation to be in the uppermost desired tier of female attraction. For some women it comes almost naturally, some have to work hard at it and for some... It is near impossible.
One does not simply try to change the prerequisites of beauty standards in an attempt to include everyone. It defeats the logic. There will ALWAYS be a spectrum of beauty, no matter how much you try to move the goal posts.
No amount of social engineering will change anything. You try make heavier women with thicker calves the 'in' thing.. you will get people buying unhealthy body augments. Naturally slim women buying weight gain products that go against their natural bodily behaviour.. etc etc.
Lets all stop being jealous that some women are absolute mind blowingly slim and elegant. Be smart.. if something seems unobtainable.. its most likely not for you. Gosh if you agree that super slim is the absolute goal and you want to break yourself going for it, that's on you. Not the fault of beauty standards.
Im never going to be a Sumo Wrestler or an NBA Basket baller due to having a dull, average build. I will not endanger my life striving for those things in attempt to attract women, or to feel confident in myself. I expect women to use the same simple logic.
I almost feel like if woman had it their way, they would give every person in the Olympics a Gold medal just for taking part.
Incel
Tattoos are pretty cool
@@edwardlovrr Said the Lesbian, Sailor or Prostitute.
No, but seriously... generally men rank women who let other men etch permanent scribbles on their bodies pretttty low. I assume its to do with their lack of
inhibition, their poor decision making or their desparation to stand out from the crowd.
You will find the odd niche male who finds them attractive, but you do need to take careful consideration into the type of guys who are into tattood women.
Of course there are exceptions to all rules, but a heads up for any young ladies who think its wise to go down that route. Truely ask youself, do you think many of the women who got tattoos when they were young, don't regret it on some level?
Do they really look in the mirror and go.. YEAH, that was a good idea.
Skinny pale women with no muscle definition are irresistible 🤤
I totally understand the appeal of a woman with thin calves. Us men get kinda turned off when we see women with chunky calves. Media wont be able to change mens natural response to attractive women.
Well before our time, men found chunky calves irresistible. Hm not quite. Even today, in the west, men have shown to like thicker women. It all depends on what u grew up with.
It's okay to have this preferences.
It's just you babe ❤️😍

@@ewoma8234 Its ultra feminine.. much like women being attracted to strong men.
@@timidwildone You can try manipulate it all you want... Physical strength is a Masculine trait. If you are into masculine women... Ive got something to tell you 😅
i was so horrified seeing some of these body profile videos on youtube because i had imagined that these people put in over a year's worth of effort at the minimum to have these body profile shoots. imagine my shock when they barely did 2-3 months of hardcore exercise and restricted eating to take these pictures.. literally traumatizing the body in my opinion! and creating so much mental fatigue. it looks so painful especially cutting out water the previous day before the shoot. i didn't understand it at all after learning all that. and i wondered what would become of their bodies once they finished their photoshoot. its so sad that we live in such a fast culture, no one looks at fitness as a lifelong or long-term ambition, they want their dream body as fast as possible and will do anything it takes, including putting their bodies and minds through pain and trauma, to get there.
