Where Have the Muscles Gone?
Obviously we all know the stereotype for there to be skinny women in Hollywood. They are poked and sliced and filled and mutilated within an inch of their lives (yes, this is said with a mix of disgust and jealousy).
BUT, what about the phenomenon of skinny men in Hollywood? Ok, Los Angels rather cause lets be honest, not EVERYONE who live sin LA lives in Hollywood but secretly wants to. Ok, I secretly wane to. Whatever.
My point is that I’ve noticed that the younger generation (holy shit, am I not part of the younger generation anymore?) has gotten tiny. I mean seriously. I remember in high school there were a few drama kids and a few nerds who were super skinny… But I don’t remember main stream guys being skinny. I only can recall a few who I’d put into the “chicken leg” category…
This week while I was in LA getting myself a little freedom (mentally) I kept seeing really thin guys. No, not anorexic or sick skinny, just not built. At all. And I don’t mean to insinuate that this is bad or ugly, I’ve always dated skinny guys and my husband is definitely in the thin category… I just mean to make the observation that WTF – where have the big muscles gone?
