Not sure what you short guys at the gym are doing, but building up those huge muscles in your arms only makes you look more out of proportion and then your head just sits on your shoulders (no necks). Take note, the women in the gym aren’t interested or even paying attention to you and your big muscles. Now tall guys, woohoo! We’re all for them!

I don’t like huge muscles on any shaped guy, personally, but if short guys want to go to the gym and get really built then who are you to rag on them?
what gym are YOU in??
I work with a short guy who is constantly pumping iron, he brags about how many reps etc. etc. ITs too bad he has an inferiority problem with his height, but pumping all the iron in the world won’t make him taller than the 5 ft mark he’s at …I mentioned it at break the other day, That your getting all puffy & that his girlfriend has to learn that “Blow J–” is just an expression .
He’s still not talking to me, which makes me very happy 🙂
Lol
i don’t mind the beefcakes but its kinda creepy when they have no neck…its just a head attached to some shoulders…not much good for neckin
It’s called SMS – Short Man Sydrome, and it is a common world-wide phenomenon. Women generally are not attracted to shorter guys (I know not all, but for the most part they aren’t really) so these shorties need to find other ways to compensate for that by pumping iron at the gym, driving a nice car, being more aggressive cause they ain’t getting pushed around, bragging, etc. At just under six feet tall I’m no shorty myself (thank fuck!) but I have shorter guy friends and I do feel for them. It’s not their fault they’re short. What I also find funny is that it’s not politically correct to make fun of a woman for being fat, despite the fact the most people can change that through eating better and exercising, yet it’s perfectly fine for women to make fun of short guys despite the fact there is little (pun not intended) to nothing a guy can do about it.
OP, if you’re cute, is 5’11 & 3/4 tall enough? I also have big feet… hint hint.
Hey virgomom, I don’t have huge muscles. In fact I’m skinny as a rake. Coffee some time?
Thought I better give it a shot before LIFE SUCKS gets here.
Q: are you my long lost twin?? I’m also 5′-11 3/4″ with big (size 13) feet!! If your birthday is in June of 1980…
Amen. I hate big muscles, regardless of height.
It’s easier for midgets to get big muscles and do more weight because they are only pushing the bar a few inches and their little limbs respond quicker.
Youtube little Japanese fellas lifting more than Schwarzenegger, it is funny.
all yours q. not being a beefcake is okay in most people’s book. but then you have some shallow bitch, who only wants a trophy.
Hey OB….speak for yourself……I like little people!
OP, you’re a total tool. A completely useless one at that.
did you ever for a second OP think that maybe he’s doing that for him….
and not so you can swoon over him.
Self-involved much?
I’ll tell ya, if he IS doing that for you, he’s doing it for all the wrong reasons.
twat
Well I guess we now know who all the shorties on LTWWB are! Don’t worry about it little fellas, even a slightly taller than average guy like me stood up for you. I’m sure you’d have something to say to me now too, but you’re probably all driving your nice sports cars or SUVs, or at the gym getting fuckin’ huge!
And only a size 13 Never Wrong? 14’s here (and big hands too… hint hint, ladies). Nope, not born in 1980 but 1985… maybe you’re my long lost older brother? My dad was a bit of a player so it might be possible if you’re from Halifax, or one of the places he visited on his “business trips.” Unfortunately I never inherited his player skills… and yes, it’s embarassing when I’m out for a drink with my dad and he’s better at talking to women than I am! Maybe spending too much time huddled in front of a computer posting on LTWWB is a bit detrimental.
There’s a lot to be said for EXPERIENCE.
Give me a fucking break!! You are probably one of these people who spends 10 minutes on a workout and 2 and a half hours primping yourself in fromt of the mirrors and putting on a show, hoping the guys will notice you. NEWSFLASH! The gym is for WORKING OUT, not a fucking fashion show.
Stop being a self-absorbed douched-out bitch and go chase after your taller guys (poor guys) instead of ragging all over short ones who aren’t worthy of your oh so sought after gaze… who, by the way, don’t give two shits about you and the self-involved slop that sloshes around in your head.
ick.
I like when the short guys have muscly shoulders and arms…not HUGE…..but I think it’s hot when they look strong and fit.
