I understand your point, and yes, girls are shallow and stupid like that, but, let me put it another way:
Do you WANT to be with shallow girls? I don't.
That settles that part.
Building your body is not tryhard no..... but it is tryhard if you have nothing else going for you and all you do is go around in muscle shirts flexing your muscles. You might get some pus-sy, sure, but nothing that another 100 muscular men haven't already fuc-ked.
When I mentioned the fat and skinny guy stuff, I was talking from direct observation, no stories or anything. So rule number 1 and number 2 out.
# 3 however is probably dead on, because yes, they owe almost all of their success to their social abilities, and possibly some personality, but that's it.
I am all for self-improvement, and I wasn't saying you shouldn't work out. My main point was that there are a lot of men out there who have nothing but muscle and that is the only area they want to improve in, so they are either getting incredibly shallow slu-ts, or nothing at all. Believe what you want though, I don't care. I just know WAY too many dumbasses who think muscle is going to get them laid, and, not surprisingly, it doesn't.... in fact I have had my skinny ass in the same situations with girls as they have, and who do the girls want? Me. Perhaps because I am not obsessed with muscle and there is no indication I am insecure about myself? Go figure.
I have said it once, but here goes again: if you have low self-esteem, you need to start feeling good about who you ALREADY are. If you have low confidence and are insecure when you have no muscle, who is to say you'll be happy after you get muscle? You might just become more and more obsessed with getting bigger (as some have) and it becomes impossible for you to be happy with your current body. You probably don't understand what I am saying, but that's ok, it doesn't matter.
