I don't care about both. I was bullied for being obese. I only care about low weight. I know muscles can increase your metabolism but I am too lazy for it. I just eat very healthy and not much of it. But doing sports I don't know. I know this is kind of an unhealthy stance but I see it like a waste of time. I don't know people cope differently. I think many mentally ill people can profit from sports a lot. There are many studies on that especially when the people have depression.
But for me it does not work that well. I tried it in clinic often. In a group sports can distract me. But I think I am more stimulated by cognitive distraction. Reading some books written by suicidal people comforted me the most. DFW described so accurately how it feels. It gave me the feeling I am not the only one with this. Furthermore writing or reading in this forum gives me a similar feeling.
Now back to the topic. I think a man with many muscles can look very good. Moreover it is said A healthy mind is in a healthy body. I think there is some truth in it.
I think sometimes it looks artificial. I would not say a person with many muscles looks always better. For me it is more important to train my mind. Lol.
I think this stems from teenager and childhood experiences. My mind could have gone another route. But seemingly it did not. If my obsessive behavior went in a different direction I might would spend all my time in a gym instead of writing daily a lot of texts in a suicide forum.
My mom hit me as a child/teenager. She was stronger than me. She decreased with her abuse when I was 15. I resisted her attacks and showed her it does not phyiscally hurt me anymore. Weirdly this changed her behavior. But honeslty I stull was abused emotionally etc. My strength did not really help me. Even if I was able to hit her back I did not feel like it. Hiting your own mother. Maybe it would have been self-defence. It just felt bad. The worst things already happened when I was way younger. When I was unable to stop her.
It felt like my strength did not help me. I was really obese. The teenagers in my school bullied me a lot because of it. I had a lot of physical strength but I could not defend myself with it. I was outnumbered. And even when I hit them back I was scared they told it the teachers which they did. Even though I only defended myself. It was all so cynical.
I just had the experiences my strength was no help. But I also was bullied for being stupid or uneducated. I think this changed. Studying gave me strength and self-esteem. Moreover the abuse nudged me into this direction. With my logic/eagerness I could set me free. This was at least my first feeling. But in reality I only was driven by a manic episode.
I always hated physical fighting as child. I only liked to fight with my dad for fun. He did not hurt me. We did not mean it seriously. I think it is a great achievement that in our current societies physical strength is not that important anymore. This is one reason why I dislike the notion of anarchism. I don't want to fight against anyone. Also not with weapons. Our actions should be led by rationality and reason. We should not bcome barbaric again.
But it is true depending on where you live physical strength can protect you. For example at night lonely on a street. I think especially women are scared to get attacked. Violence against women is not that seldom. I have met many who got assaulted. Not always the physical strength is decisive I think. Sometimes the victims are just too shocked, kind of paralyzed. There are some self-defence courses which could be helpful. Probably especially for victims of violence to regain the feeling of security and control.
I am not that often surrounded with other people. I am not on the street at night usuall. I try to avoid dangerous situations. And in case someone has the intention to hurt me I hope he completes the job and kills me. I hate to make it myself. The pressure of this decision is tormenting me. But it way more likely one ends with even more debilitating conditions than I currently have. So I avoid such situations. I already experienced enough pain.
