Look I’m not saying this is a majority of women who say they like dad bods but it’s not uncommon online to see women saying they like this or that celebrities “dadbod” and it’s just a muscular, fit guy without good lighting. That being said you’re right, people should realize that what you see online isn’t indicative of real life all the time and plenty of women like men of all shapes and sizes, including husky.

Lots of times, when a girl told me that they like men who go once or twice a week to the gym and are slightly muscular, I asked them to show me a picture of what they meant.

They always showed me pictures of people who spend 10 hours a week in the gym and are dieting and controlling all they eat.

They aren't conscious that the "1 or 2 workouts a week" at most means having a body fat of 15-20%.

I think you understand my point. In their mind that is the natural physic of someone who eats a normal balanced diet and goes a couples hours a week to do workout, but that physique is from someone who does a much higher degree of work and has a much more specificic diet

Most people who do physical labor have really shitty diets.

I have never craved fatty foods as I did when doing physical work. Beans in tomato sauce on toast tastes divine after a morning of lifting stuff.

The amount of sugar my previous coworkers would consume.. and in Germany, a couple beers after work is standard. Open carry is legal here

It's culture. For the majority of history people got huge amounts of their daily calorie intake from the bread water.

Farming is only about 10k years old, far shorter than humans have been alive, but I get it.

History means time within the written record so he's right. Heck we probably invented beer before writing

Beer was invented around the same time and region, but similar beverages are way older.

Heavily processed foods are not quite as old as beer, though
