I know i’m in the minority, but i’m kind of tired of abs, I just see them and just want to say “(person gender) you need to hydrate!” Where is the energy pouches for lifting aka fat? I have this problem with anytime I see a six pack like this one. Like of course they can exist, but you can tell when someone is skipping their intake days. I love you my buff people, and I will stand and marvel at you but please be healthy
I feel like abs on girls are a relatively new thing, again showing how arbitrary and malleable the beauty standards are. When I was younger I absorbed the beauty standard of women being “curvy and womanly”, so I never really cared about abs in girls. I absolutely did absorb the canon for guys though, and have had to do a lot of self-reflection to realize this is something imposed on me from the outside that I don’t necessarily want for myself.
Interesting, I feel like everywhere I look it’s either abs or skinny fit. I’ve had to carefully cultivate various body-type art in various feeds. But to your point, I can’t really say what it was like growing up other than “thin”. But I had to deal with a lot of issues with my parents in this regard so no idea how accurate that was.
There was absolutely a “women must be incredibly thin” body standard in the 2000s, idk why I personally never particularly absorbed that very much. Fucked up stuff, really.
this is true, but not nearly to the extent I see on artwork and to the effect. Like, it’s going to exist in art, but…there just needs to be more fat and variety of fat in art in general.
Yeah. I know a girl who is naturally like this cause her body doesn’t produce fat there because of some tissue disorder (mostly goes to the legs). Everybody thinks she’s fit in photos but she’s actually very out of shape
You can usually tell the difference between skinny abs and built abs. It also really depends on the type of fitness you’re doing. It’s more likely to develop than the chunkier build if you’re doing any kind of aerobics or calisthenics.
true, but there still going to be a lot more chub than what is often depicted in media and the likes. and idk, I just want some other types of strong people in media, and we certainly get more “bear” types of dudes than we do with women…and then they turn my precious queen into cops most of the time when they ever do show up

They’re called thirst traps for a reason.
Some people don’t have much fat on their tummy and get them easier

damn that sucks, that can’t be an easy thing to live with.
Yeah probably isn’t good for avoiding deep vein thrombosis
