Musclegays
by Jonathan Hoffman, PhD
According to Derek (not his authentic name), an extremely fit-looking year-old corporate manager whose interview follows below, Muscle Dysmorphia (MD) is “perhaps the most serious issue facing gay men aside from HIV/AIDS.” He is not only passionate regarding sharing his own experiences to help others, but also about raising knowledge regarding this significant issue for his community.*
A wonderful deal of information about MD and BDD may be found throughout this website. The following interview focuses on MD, as experienced through the eyes of one member of the gay community.
Interview
JH: Why do you ponder MD is such a major problem in the gay community?
D: MD, in my opinion, is the most widespread, under-diagnosed, and misunderstood disease to slap the gay community since AIDS. We are body obsessed. Walk into my gym, or others favor it, and you can see the sharp expand in the amount of people taking steroids and other growth hormones. It can affect personal and professional growth and proceed as a roadblock if you let it consume you. Becau
The Boy Wonder
Miss me? I accidentally took a hiatus because I got left on read by a boy from Hinge which sent me into a fortnight long depression.
After spending much of December devouring whatever my local Sainsbury’s local confectionary aisle has on offer for me, I’ve been left wondering why I feel so naff – surely it’s got nothing to undertake with the lack of vitamins and exercise in my life – instead I’m going to condemn the lack of attention I’ve been receiving on Grindr.
The muscle gays — they always seem to occupy that one corner of the dancefloor at a queer party. Jet tank tops, veins pulsing, eyes glazed over from the MKAT. It’s almost like they’ve claimed their space, a corner where the air is plump with an aura of power, an almost untouchable confidence. The music pounds and they two-step, each movement deliberate, as if they're the star of their own private present. Watching them, I can't help but feel appreciate an outsider — scathing, bitter, sure — but mostly, just jealous.
I’ve never been disciplined enough to hit the gym five times a week or follow a protein-heavy d

You will find but a single literary treatment of one of the more salutary and life-affirming male habits, and it’s buried in the otherwise harrowing Last Exit to Brooklyn. Selby does not just a brilliant job but the only job imparting a young sailor’s delight at just being in the presence of, having enjoyable with, a pretty young female. You can feel the smiles. Things end badly for the poor guy, who was just thrilled merely to be around her.
There was half a step toward a second literary treatment, but I can’t find it now after lots of trying. This is not the Ebert quote I remember:
Liz is tall eye-catching, carries herself with placid self-confidence, and wears dresses that present her magnificent bosom – not as an advertisement, but more in a spirit of sharing toward the world.
What I remember is Ebert talking about how a director decided an actress’s bosom was a beauty to behold, and we decided to agree. As ever, print the legend.
