Question:
Would you rather be 200 pounds of solid muscle (and ripped and buff/swole beyond belief), or drive a Porsche 911 (and be over-fat or skinny-fat?)
Hmmm.. why can guys drive their (annoyingly loud) car down the streets and rev their engines … yet we aren’t allowed to grunt in the gym or park?
Or:
Why is it socially allowed to drive around your Ferrari (with the top down, and have people take photos of you and your car), but you ain’t allowed to walk down a busy street with your top off?
We men all desire to become the apex male
My thought:
What do we men really want … we all want to be considered apex.
Why do we flex our Rolex? Why do we flex our Porsche? Why do we flex our bank account? Assertion of our masculinity.
My theory
My theory about individualism in America:
You are only allowed to be an ‘individual’ if it is consumerist.
For example, I am unique because I have a Rose Gold iPhone. I am unique because I drive a Lamborghini, not a Ferrari. I am unique because I wear OFF-WHITE, not Supreme.
Or with music and media:
You assert who you are via the media you consume.
But … you aren’t “allowed” to make your own music or media!
For example, we all listen to rap music. Yet, none of us raps.
Or,
You are allowed to Instagram your new watch or purchase, but you cannot show off your muscles?
Or:
Sure, you can take your top off when you’re sun-tanning or at the beach, but you cannot do it at the park or outdoors.
Buy more meat
My critique of modern society:
Too much focus on ‘animal rights’, and we are no longer “allowed” to consume (delicious fatty red meat).
I am convinced: the supreme and apex nutrition for us to augment our muscular growth is meat. Preferably fatty red meat (steak). The other day I was eating chicken, and the funny thought:
I don’t think that chicken is ‘meat’ (a sentiment mirrored in Brazil).
Creatine?
The supplement Creatine comes from beef. ‘Kreas‘ means meat in Ancient Greek.
Also, why consume or buy protein powder … when you can just buy a shitload of meat?
I like the taste of blood
Meat is derived from blood (*kréwh₂s) in proto indo European. Thus my general notion:
The more food you consume that has blood, the better for your physiology.
Consider how the Vietnamese and many Asians consume coagulated pig’s blood. Or how we loooove a juicy red fatty T-bone steak (with red blood drippings coming out).
Why aren’t we allowed to like blood anymore?
Our society is a non-violent one. Yet, we love blood sports (UFC, boxing) and we like to see blood in video games. My theory:
Christian morality says ‘thou shalt not harm another’.
Which means in America, we take the same theory, and also extend it to animals (???).
