  1. May the testosterone be with them !

  2. Woke trying their best to attack masculinity. Go to gym Bros, don't listen to these cancerous betas. That long hair Justin Baldoni is the biggest beta male, Misandrist, feminist.

  3. Sooooooo Glad you put this out there!!! Tried sharing this on my Instagram accountโ€ฆ Hopefully, people will be able to view it!

  4. So glad ABC is talking about this. Very comforting and highlighting as oppose to the toxic manosphere and red pill community that exploits men's feelings about their image.
    There are women out there that don't equate a man's body to his manhood or worth ๐Ÿ˜Š

  5. men are turning into women these days.

    just how women are obsessed with their looks to become insta thots.
    now men what to do that.

  6. There are way worse addictions to have than working out….. Only the mainstream news can make wanting to be fit a bad thing

  7. First of all I don't see anyone here that's huge, I thought you were gonna have a Mr Olympia talk about how he doesn't feel he's big enough yet. These guys are low body fat, I thought you were gonna wheel out some freaks. Your trying conflate separate issues to get people not to go to the gym … for whatever evil reason. You need to be more concerned with people on Kensington in Philadelphia… why would you waste the money reporting on a couple gym bros that don't think they're big enough?? go ** yourself ABC, who literally cares about guys working out.

  8. Are you kidding me??? Women have been feeling this forever. Tell me, men and women, who would you want to defend you in an attack??? What kind of warriors do you want? Cary Grant, who I love, or some other kind of guy/gal? Ideal male physique has been around since we sculpted statues. I don't disagree with the subject, I disagree with your PRESENTATION!!!

  9. Once you step into the gym and lift consistently you will get body dysmorphiaโ€ฆthere is nothing wrong with this as long as you get shredded and lift heavier over time

  10. Can you clowns even define man..???๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

  11. Glad I never cared about this lol

  12. Genital mutilation is a Democrat trend

  13. This is nothing new. This ha been going on for years. And now it is encouraged and excepted when it involves gender. How about we keep it consistent? If you are calling one of them a disorder, they should be called a disorder.

  14. George Mycock…. his last name must have attracted alot of bullies leading him to this..

  15. Thanks for sharing. I had no idea this was an issue for men. We need to know and understand more about men issues as well.

  16. the "Alpha" Males on the comment section lol.. if your asses did not care and this is not reall. YOU WONT BE HERE.

  17. You should see what trans people do to themselves to "prove" something only they themselves will ever Truly believe.

  18. How often does Muscle Dysphoria and Gender Dysphoria occur relative to each….?

  19. I'm a trained/educated Clinical Dietitian and Clinical Exercise Physiologist and have had countless young boys and older men confess these types of feelings to me which made me surprised but relieved I wasn't the only guy out there suffering too. I sometimes suffer mentally and emotionally because of my profession and feel that sometimes I'm not either healthy looking enough or muscular enough or my advice is stupid because sometimes I cant follow either. I get looked up and down my body when I tell patients my role esp towards my stomach so the pressure is real. There are young boys who end up with life threatening eating disorders and older men thinking of suicide because they no longer be the strength for society's protection. However It's my job to steer them back to a healthy relationship with food, nutrition, physical activity, and body image and that applies to myself as well. Hang in there boys, there are always gonna be good days and bad days in the mirror but remember that your body is only one aspect of the beautiful soul and spirit you fully are.

  20. ABC is a leftist, Ukranian nazi supporting bunch of baby raping satanists.
    And they tell us that being manly is a disease.
    Got it.

    It is impossible to remain calm in any situation. Also, we do not have to always be calm.

    Nature develops us by constantly growing our ego. If we look at eons of human development, we can see development from basic survival desires for food, sex, family and shelterโ€”desires we had as cave dwellersโ€”through the egoistic desires that appear when we develop as civilizations: money, honor, control and knowledge.

    The more the ego grows, the less calm we become.

    Aggravation, agitation and stress are all states that nature urges us to feel in order to reach the recognition of our human ego as the cause of the turbulence, and by doing so, develop a sincere new desire to rise above the ego.

    At this juncture, we need a supportive environment where we feel encouragement and confidence in order to rise above the ego.

    One aspect of such an environment is regular learning and activity aimed at elevating us above the human ego, which shields us against any aggravations that come to unbalance us.

    In other words, by regularly calibrating ourselves in order to recognize the ego as the source of our imbalance with our surroundings, and to rise above the ego, we would need to strengthen our supportive environment, which would in turn help us through any states we experience faster than if we were left to our own devices.

  22. nah dont demonize masculinity again by showing a negative aspect of what makes us male and human which is to be in good shape and strong men

  23. In 59 seconds I can tell you, each guy is a weirdo.
