Quote: I don't think it's gay, either, anymore than me watching guys play baseball.
I don't mean gay exactly.
Just that from what I know of the world of male fitness is also filled with a kind of male vanity that I associate with gay males. Nothing wrong with being fit but have you ever seen a "muscle" magazine? It's toned dudes showing off how toned they are and those magazines are not aimed at being "jack off" material for women. Just saying it has some homo overtones.
But as for your baseball reference, I got nothing. I have never understood organized sports or sports fans.
So in tatty's case just realize I didn't mean anything serious by it, I was just poking a friendly insult his way. He'll understand.
And I agree that he has a right to be proud of his fitness.
