On one side, people accused of the hunks of being superficial & shallow, of being jerks, of being dismissive and condescending to the rest of the people who are not physically well-built, of "wasting" hours in gym for sheer vanity.
On the other side, the hunks accused the others of being lazy, of not willing to put in the physical effort to achieve what they are envious of, and, ironically, of the others being shallow too -- that they were treating hunks as nothing more than a piece of meat.
There were definitely some truths in the points brought out in both sides. What I found sad was the sheer bitterness in both sides of the divide in the emails that went back and forth.
I went through my email archives and found what I wrote in that discussion. Just wanted to checked if my opinion has changed or how has it changed.
Those who laments about be treated as a piece of meat:
If you think people only take you for your physical attributes only,
look into your heart and ask yourselves with all truthfulness and
honesty: do you look beyond the other party's lack of physical attributes?
Those who laments about all the hot bods being superficial:
If you think people dismiss you for your lack of or undesirable
physical attributes, again ask yourselves: do you look beyond the
physical attributes of the hot hunks?
It's easy to fault others. But who's without fault?
Bitterness doesn't get you any where.
What is sad is not because "there are so many jerks out there" (there
are only as many as you made them out to be). The sad thing is you
haven't met the right man. That's all....
