I agree that liking muscular women shouldn’t be a secret, but at least for me social media kinda forces me to keep it as one. I for one would rather not be caught looking at muscular women while browsing my public accounts

Instagram has this feature where your friends/followers can see what you liked and commented on, so for that reason I almost never interact with any sort of fitness content. I only sometimes like humorous clips, but those never feature muscular women.
I still keep getting recommendations for their videos though. Probably because the algorithm tracks my watchtime and has noticed I stay longer on videos that include buff women lol.
I almost got caught when I handed over my phone to a friend and he clicked on one of the profiles in the recommendations sidebar. The girl he saw was fortunately not that buff, but she was definitely fit. Immediately snatched my phone back and got upset at him for tapping stuff he shouldn't have.
Expressing your attraction towards a muscular woman (if you are a man) forces you to be as strong or stronger than her, to be in the same wavelength, to be allowed to say that you have the same affinity, otherwise, publicly, your admiration or passion is insincere.
Expression your attraction towards a muscular man (if you are woman) doesn't require a change from you, it is not a requirement.
There's a privilege in saying that you admire something but that you don't want to transform into the same thing. These are the social expectations at play.
To say that this is not normal and that this shouldn't be like this is to support telling the majority of women to feel bad about themselves for expressing attraction to something they aren't (muscular). It is hypocritical not to hold women to the same standard if you think that you shouldn't be afraid of expressing attraction for muscular women (as a man), or inconsiderate, at best.
^^
Yeah it’s a double standard, but I’m gonna let you in on something.
In most heterosexual relationship relationships, the man is bigger.
So if you were going to be in a hetero relationship with the man is smaller (either shorter or less muscular/strong) then you will be judged by some people for sure. It’s very uncommon.
If you’re a man who expresses attraction to women much taller or stronger, than same thing.
But here’s the secret - you don’t have to care. At all. Stop caring about what other people think. Someone will probably find you weird. So what?
Muscles_Toez: "....stop caring about what other people think...." Which is a concept found in Stoic philosophy. Focus on your own values. Of course, if one of your values involves watching "snuff films," probably a "good idea" to keep that quiet.
Title of the thread: "Rant: stop treating your attraction to buff women like some deep dark secret." Myself, I don't consider it a "secret." I simply don't have a need to discuss it or even mention it to anyone.
since im pretty big myself, opening up about my preferences isnt really that hard. if youre buff yourself, many people will give you a pass for many things. i kind of soft launched to everybody that i like different women than most and it only lead me to meeting them. i agree its not a really bad secret and kind of a healthy fetish than other ones. and in the past years its definetely gotten more normalized to like muscular women
taking it to the grave, since liking jacked women means i am a deeply closeted gay man obviously. has nothing to do w my brother-in-law's hot fucking ass either. just the jacked women thing
if youre buff yourself, many people will give you a pass for many things
How buff do you mean though? Because the threshold for what an average natty trainee could achieve is probably way below what some of these girls who constantly hang out around bodybuilders seek. There's also the question of frame. What if a guy simply has a smaller frame?
It’s getting easier to be open with it as I get older. I wish that when I was younger I was born into that life ya know? That life where it’s more accepted and “normal”. At this point my attraction to strong women is normal to me and people who don’t like it are the weird ones. But I remember when I was younger literally everyone around me thought it looked bad or was a problem “why would she want to look like that” or “She looks like a man”. But now I see that that’s either THEIR real opinion or just the projecting. Either way they are wrong. Girls with muscles are the literal best and all women could be a little more buff lol
Seriously. If you are keeping this such a deep secret, ask yourself why. From a muscular woman fan to another, please don't be insecure about that.
I've come to accept that's it's not something I need to unburden myself of, or to force into everyday conversation. And is it really such a burden to keep this a "secret"? I've never thought it to be very appropriate to bring up fetishes to friends or family, or even to co-workers or random strangers. Isn't that what sites like this are for, so you can share with others without feeling the harsh judgment from those who could never (or not even try to) understand it?

Spoiler: people give you a way easier time if you're a buff dude who they assume wants to bang similarly buff women, than they do if you're a scrawny little dude who they assume is saying that they want to be banged by a woman far buffer than them while they squeal "mommy" and bite the pillow.
A puzzler for the ages.

I can’t attest to this even more, I’ve always been a very muscular guy the last 3 years. My girlfriend always has enjoyed it, but I remember we had a conversation about her back muscles and she had said cheerleading her whole life gave her muscles that she was always insecure about. Funny enough it was the perfect way for me be like “Well I love muscles and I think muscles are sexy” and went in my whole rant and she actually found it 1. Not weird, 2. Reassuring. She never thought it was weird because I explained being surrounded by cheerleaders and going to bodybuilding gyms my whole life, those types of women were who I were around most, and she’d actually been motivated to gain a little bit more muscle. I do think I live in a fairytale at times. But I’m just blessed with a loving accepting girlfriend
No sorry I have to keep this secret. Women are all feminist nowadays and they absolutely support a woman who looks like she can kick a man's ass. But she usually thinks it's weird if you go on and on about fitness girls. I'm seeing a girl right now named after a certain city in Eastern Europe, very cute tall brunette with the prettiest green eyes. If I told her about this fetish or said 'you'd look good with some biceps' she'd be like "what are you talking about? You don't wanna be the boy? You want the girl to wear the pants?" You know, fair enough. I don't look at girls with muscle that way but I can see why she'd take it like that.
Every family member, friends and some coworkers know I love muscular women. My social media accounts are public and I post photos and videos there. I don't care what people think.
But I don't go around telling everybody though. If they find out, they find out.
She'd probably look down on you if you liked trans women. She says being a femboy is not okay because femininity is a detriment, not a plus.
