      The only non-muscle hunk in this image is Jack Black (famously the poster boy for unconventionally attractive man, where the picture chosen is a younger and skinnier one), Joseph Quinn, and mayyybee Jeremy Allen White.

      The nerve of putting Orlando fucking Bloom as Legolas or Cavill as The Witcher as “little”. This disconnect is unfathomable.

      This meme really gets the rise out of me because I agree with the sentiment but the example they chose are so bad.

      There was an old reddit thread were one woman argued that women arent attracted to “gym rats” and used Henry Cavill as an example of a man with a physique who doesn’t spend hours in the gym everyday.

      People who doesn’t do resistance training have a negative amount of knowledge of what it takes to get in “shape”.

        I do “resistance training.” I resist going to the gym, and eat cheese instead.

        Henry Caville gets his physique through sheer willpower put into manifesting his dreams to one day be Captain General Trajann Valoris

        Henry Cavill? The guy who played Superman and Geralt of Rivia? Nobody can possibly think he got that body by sitting around. That’s like saying guys don’t think Lady Gaga wears makeup on stage. He’s not just fit, he’s built out.

        Any actor is someone who is selling their looks as part of the package. However they look, it is a choice and they put effort into it. Even Jack Black.

      But even he doesn’t look like in man of steel on a Thursday morning. He looks like that after he got a good pump and not eating and drinking for days.
      I’m still gay for cavill tho
