I'm totally with you on obesity! 110%! In general, I dislike unnatural bodybuilding the same way, and for the same reason, I dislike fake boobs. I'm also against things that harm our health, and steroids harm our health. And often the things people do "to be the best in any sport" are unhealthy also. Many of these top athletes, if not most, take drugs that are just too good for the authorities to detect, it's like an arms race between drug-takers and drug-detectors. In my previous post of this series I gave the example of Nate Diaz as someone who has a body "trained to its absolute potential". It really doesn't look all that different from an untrained slim body! The kind of body Thor has, at his age, and in such a short span of time, can only be made with drugs. Most women might suspect 'The Rock's' body isn't completely natural (!), but they'll think Thor's body is. Parading that kind of body in movies creates an unhealthy pressure for men, and unrealistic expectations (and consequent disappointment) in women. I wouldn't mind it if at least they came out and admitted they use drugs, for the sake of art (it does look good), but pretending this is real is actually harmful. I guess I'm making a point very similar to the one feminists often make, I'm just reversing the sexes for once. I don't think I ever saw a female body in movies that is actually impossible to occur naturally. But you see this with male bodies all the time.
