This dude is a tool, but pinning hormones to get the body you want is cool, actually.
I think doing steroids if fine if you are honest about it. He was telling people that he got his physique from eating raw meat, which is dishonest.
Yeah that’s fair, I agree. But also, since it’s illegal, I think that not being open about it is okay too as long as you aren’t selling something because of it. And I probably didn’t need to say anything, but I wanted to because I feel like people tend to villainize exogenous hormones unfairly because of baseball or whatever, and I don’t think we should do that here. Which is not to imply that that’s what you were doing, I just thought it was worth mentioning is all.
Gender affirming care for cis het men. He’s interesting to me because he’s taking PEDs not to hit more home runs or recover faster after MMA injuries, but just to create masculine content.
Sorry, but he's taking PEDs in order to sell his supplements of purified bull's testicles and shit. Craft an influencer personality, convince weird guys that they can get as masculine as him by eating raw organ meat, actually does a ton of PEDs to get that physique instead. It's not like he's engaging in a harmless hobby, he's grifting.
But damn, that is a hell of a thing to do to one's body just to grift
Maybe a hot take but I don’t think it matters whether you’re cis. If you want to take hormones I think that’s okay.
Sexual hormones classify as steroids, right? Technically
That sounds right to me, but I’m not a biologist, so someone else might have a better answer.
