I know a guy who took T for gains at one point in his life. He says it felt great at the time, he had more energy and his gains were amazing but now he doesn't naturally produce enough testosterone of his own and it's fucking his joints up in old age. His bone density is closer to that of a woman in his age group and one of his hands is essentially disintegrating.

His words, not mine.

Hey trans girls I found a new lifehack

[-] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 82 points 4 months ago

Why would you seek somebody’s advice if you’re not willing to take it? Sure, I get the idea of wanting to be validated, but you also have to accept being told what you’re doing is wrong.

[-] jedibob5@lemmy.world 120 points 4 months ago

This reads as satire to me I think

[-] Jerkface@lemmy.world 86 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

No, it's real. It's a greentext. It's real ಠ_ಠ

[-] Klear@sh.itjust.works 6 points 4 months ago

It's still real to me, dammit!

[-] NoIWontPickAName@kbin.earth 5 points 4 months ago

I’m going to steal your hover car battery

[-] sp3tr4l@lemmy.zip 56 points 4 months ago

It is very obviously satire of the fat acceptance movement.

They just inverted the genders and kept the rest of the analogy and lingo as similar as possible.

[-] MindTraveller@lemmy.ca 5 points 4 months ago

Does.... Does anon not believe there's such a thing as fat men?

[-] Letstakealook@lemm.ee 4 points 4 months ago

Nobody says all men's bodies are beautiful, healthy, sexy, desirable, ect. Lol, they would immediately and rightfully be told to stfu.

[-] SquishyPandaDev@yiffit.net 12 points 4 months ago

Yes this is satire but unfortunately people like this do exist. As for the why, they are seeking validation

I've stopped giving my father advice on computers or electronics because he has never yet followed any of it.

He gets really upset that I won't spend time researching things to give him advice to ignore, so presumably he gets something out of it but I'm not sure what.

[-] Num10ck@lemmy.world 7 points 4 months ago

time invested is his love language, time intentionally poorly invested must be love if its not annoying.

[-] pkmkdz@sh.itjust.works 7 points 4 months ago

Theory: your father just wants to spend time with you, technology being common topic

[-] RecluseRamble@lemmy.dbzer0.com 21 points 4 months ago

Well, it's just a fabricated story, so it doesn't need to make sense. The real author may be plus sized and the doctor's advice may be real, too, but I think there's a simpler explanation than excess amounts of steroids.

[-] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

This story may be fabricated, but the idea of the story is very real.

[-] Illuminostro@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

Oh yeah, doctors are pussies who are jealous of meatheads....

[-] Passerby6497@lemmy.world 18 points 4 months ago

Why would you seek somebody’s advice if you’re not willing to take it?

People are dumb as hell. Between working retail and working first line IT support, I cannot tell you how many times I've had someone ask me a question and then immediately disregard the advice. I got to just expect idiocy when I was asked a technical question at work.

Thankfully I'm in a much better gig where people value my opinion.

[-] humbletightband@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 4 months ago

Because listening to someone is submission

[-] umbrella@lemmy.ml 22 points 4 months ago

anon dislikes fat people

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 15 points 4 months ago

Anon is a fat person.

[-] selokichtli@lemmy.ml 21 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I think being a muscled bulky person is some kind of a glorified obesity.

[-] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 1 points 4 months ago

??????????????????????????

[-] ranoss@lemmy.world 12 points 4 months ago

One of the cadavers in the cadaver lab operated by the school where I studied was a young (late 30s) male who died of a heart attack, the rest were all well above 65. The ventricles (spaces needed to pump blood) in this man’s heart had shrunk because his heart tissue had grown so large after using steroids. It’s important to know that steroids affect all muscles including the heart. People don’t usually consider the complications of prolonged use.

[-] Chev@lemmy.world 10 points 4 months ago

You can be a pumped soy boy. Many professional athleats are.

[-] olutukko@lemmy.world 7 points 4 months ago

I love it how they use soyboy as insult when soy is literally full of protein

[-] EmptySlime 7 points 4 months ago

They basically just heard that soy has phytoestrogens and that was all they needed. So now they think that eating literally anything with soy in it actively feminizes you.

[-] olutukko@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

yeah it's just too funny

[-] Pencilnoob@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

How awesome that would be for our trans sisters to just eat soy to get the gains they need. But no, they gotta go through a huge hassle of injections and pills etc

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 4 points 4 months ago

Yeah it's pretty common for Indian builders in particular. Bros just live on vegan protein powder, lentils, and soy.
