Usually only men are the ones who don't like bodybuilders. Most of the time (99%), its because they are jealous. Personally, I don't like people who THINK they are bodybuilders....like the guys that come up to you (that you know) that see that you have been lifting, and they obviously do a little too, and they go.....whats your bench bro!

jealousy and preconceived notions. plain and simple.
if you're talking specifically about the people at your school and why the guys give you **** every day and tell you to stop showing off and why the girls are all over you (in some cases), it's because the guys are jealous and the girls notice you're the only one with muscle.
when people hear the word "bodybuilding" they imagine roided up freaks stepping onto a stage in a tiny posing suit tanned to hell and soaked in oil.
honestly, when somebody asks you, do they say "are you a bodybuilder?" no. they ask "do you go to the gym a lot?" or "do you lift weights?". people don't think of bodybuilding as a sport or a way of life. they think of it as this weird world full of cheaters and muscle heads.
fact is....they mirin. the whole world is jelly of usMaster total

The first thing that pops into someone's mind when they hear bodybuilding is steroids. What they don't realize is that a lot of bodybuilders out there have never touched a needle in their lives. They don't understand the commitment it takes to live a bodybuilding lifestyle and how demanding it can be at times. The truth is: they are just jealous that they can't commit themselves to anything and decide that they are going to try to drag you down and keep you from acheiving your goals.

Dis.
General public thinks:
1.If you're a bodybuilder you HAVE to take illegal substances to look like that.
2.Bodybuilders are a bunch of stupid people who only know how to "pick things up and put them down". (e.g.look at PF commercials).
A lot of the time, I think it's because they're jealous that BBers/Overall fitness people look like they lift because they follow a well balanced diet/training regime unlike the majority of people who buy Hydroxycut thinking they'll get ripped in 30 days by doing nothing.

A person with a ton of muscle mass isn't necessarily a bodybuilder. They could just be a different type of athlete, like I am. I never get asked if I'm a bodybuilder, but I do get asked what sports I play. I don't get stereotyped as a douchebag or anything because I don't carry myself like that.
That being said, bodybuilders are stereotyped as being steroid-abusing wanton pussy bitches who talk unnecessarily loudly while groaning moving weight of varying loads while continually eye-****ing themselves and not really contributing anything relevant in the grand scheme of things. If all bodybuilders acted like that, then I'd have to say that I wouldn't really like them, either.
You guys know better, though. They're just people who train to me: nothing more, nothing less.550/385/655, 285 overhead press, 330 push jerk, 250 weighted dip, 190 weighted pull-up, 413.8 max weighted pull-up, 450 front squat, 365 RFESS, 305 x 2 log press, 400 (per arm) farmer's carry, 370 atlas stone, 31 pull-ups at 247.

Ignorant people accept being the "middle man" in terms of strength and physique because taking on a strict life style is too much for them. Although when I actually get to the size where I look like a bodybuilder it will be good that there aren't many others out there, just means more benefits for less people.

A lot of misconception is what it comes down too. You dont even know how many females are like I dont want protein, I dont wanna get huge. And thats not the case at all. Cartoons show the muscular guy as a Meathead who is a complete douchebag
Before I went to the gym I thought I was going to get laughed at for working out, and I think a lot of times people think they will get judged by those who are bigger/fit

Because there not educated in it. They think instantly of steroids and other banned substances.. If only they knew how much work it is on or off gear they would respect this lifestyle more than any other.
