Oh so you're the former fat guy, huh? Good job on the weight loss.

I didn't read the article, but did you pull that girl when you were fat? Or were you skinny and got fat as you grew old together?

Yes, I lost almost 150Lbs about 5 years ago,..Since then I have been motivating others to achieve success in fitness.

I disagree with some of the things you say:

"symbols of strength that men posses: such as large shoulders, a wide chest, strong legs, defined arms and a chiseled mid section."

Those aren't symbols of strength, and even if they are symbols, they don't necessarily indicate that you do in fact have strength. Yeah you can lift heavy weights and are as fit as you let yourself become, but these things don't indicate a healthy diet and in many cases are simply down to genetics.

While they may symbolise a "healthy man who can protect and defend his wife" they aren't necessarily proof of a man who could.

The same principle goes for a woman with "ample breasts" etc.

However I do know what you mean with a healthy, energetic lifestyle to improve a sexual relationship. I think the severe emphasis on the body is a bit over the top. I mean, you could have sexual attraction without a "chisled mid section" and could be athletic enough without a chisled mid section to satisfy 3 women at a time! Just my 2 cents.

Those aren't symbols of strength,

actually, they are symbols of physical strength.

No offense, but I think the article is rather shallow. I used to also be a fan of Maria until I read the article.

In order to live a happy, sustainable existence with your lifetime partner, not only should you be able to communicate and love each other with respect and unconditional support, but most importantly, you've got to be fit and you've got to have great sexual chemistry.

I really dislike how the article puts the physical in front of communication, respect, and unconditional support.

Whatever happened to accepting your mate for who they are and not trying to change them? It's one thing to encourage them to eat better for their health, it's another to push them to work out so they can fulfill your personal fantasy.

I just think the whole article is a big ego trip: "Look at me now, I lost all this weight so let me write a lame article so I can have an excuse to post photos of myself with all the women I've met!"

Garbage. Just my two cents

I agree as well.

Dorman, not only do these "sexual symbols" are socially constructed (by people like yourself) you label all men to be essentially symbols of strength and all women to be nothing more than an object which should have a specific physical traits. If not, then they are not "real" men or women. That's biggest cock of **** I've ever heard.

What if a woman is not born with large breasts and skinny waist? Is she not a real woman? You basically reduce all women to be sexual objects in relation to the power of men, implying that all women should be submissive, and all men must dominate their women through their "symbols" of "strength". Very sensitive, Dorman.

Then, look at beauty--if seems like you think that beauty is universial, right? Bull****. Different people look at beauty differently, and is too socially constructed.

And the photos of your girlfriend--you're really putting her in the category as nothing more than a sex object, how you focus on her ass and tits, like she's only a woman by virtues of her physical body, not by who she really is. You're really more concerned about what she look like, how she has to be good looking, big breasts, and skinny waist--these are not measurements of health. They contribute nothing to a person's health. You're just one shallow egoistic SOB who wants to tell the whole world "look at me, I'm hitting that!"

And giving birth to a "man's healthy children"--are they not the woman's too? So you're saying that women's roles are to be nothing more than nurturing of men's children, right?

Now, Dorman, this isn't evolution. This is something you wrote in trying to brainwash others in your own agenda.

Still, seriously, how the fcuk does big breasts and skinny waist contribute to a woman's health?

If you want to be shallow, then so be it. But you're trying to justify it using the most bull**** reasons. No, you know absolutely nothing about evolution.

Exactly. I used to be a fan of Maria and I stopped for this reason. She comes across as an intelligent woman on her website, respectful of herself and demanding respect from others, especially men.

Personally, if my boyfriend posted half naked photos of himself posing with random women for no other purpose than to stroke his own already enflamed ego and glorify me as a sex object -- uh huh.

Maria, you work hard for your body and from your bio you seem like an extremely intelligent woman (I'm not even going to get into the dangers of posting so much personal information of yourself online) but having your boyfriend objectify you in such a way... *gag*

Dorman can be as shallow as he wants.. that's nobody's business. But writing an ignorant and extremely stupid article to try and "teach" his ways to the masses... sigh.

I'll take a look when I get home. Blocked from work.

I just got a new girlfriend of 1 month now. The chemistry is amazing and we're very much physically attracted to each other. We both workout and eat healthy. And cheat together on the weekend. More me than her though

Im happy ya'll loved the article. Maria and I have an amazing relationship. If you have every been in a relationship when you have had an incredible sexual chemsitry you would know that it does nothing but help the relationship. We don't base our relationship on sex, but it is one of the things we do have in common. We met through a common connection based on our individual passions to help people.

Maria actually helped write most of the article, so if you have any comments, please e-mail here directly.. Her e-mail is on her website - www.mariakang.com

Cheers!

Dorman's article is flawed because he lost weight and women are a big part of his life now. He has said that before in previous posts.

I'm a heterosexual male. Of course women are a HUGE part of my life. Sexual desire is a HUGE motivation for this fitness lifestyle.

Exactly. You dont try to look your best so you can look at yourself in the mirror.

Yeah it was just an observation. I don't knock it or anything bro...I'm the same way, but I think some of the people here think you are ego tripping. I hope your mate fulfills your needs more than sexually.

On the other hand we are naive to think that we don't choose a mate based on physical appearance at first...soo this argument could be cyclic.

If not, then they are not "real" men or women. That's biggest cock of **** I've ever heard.

What if a woman is not born with large breasts and skinny waist? Is she not a real woman? You basically reduce all women to be sexual objects in relation to the power of men, implying that all women should be submissive, and all men must dominate their women through their "symbols" of "strength". Very sensitive, Dorman.

And the photos of your girlfriend--you're really putting her in the category as nothing more than a sex object, how you focus on her ass and tits, like she's only a woman by virtues of her physical body, not by who she really is. You're really more concerned about what she look like, how she has to be good looking, big breasts, and skinny waist--these are not measurements of health. They contribute nothing to a person's health. You're just one shallow egoistic SOB who wants to tell the whole world "look at me, I'm hitting that!"
Dude, you sound like some feminazi. Large breast, small waist, and propotioned hips have ALWAYS been symbols of female fertility for thousands and thousands of years.

Men are also physically stronger than women, and women want someone who is able to use his strength as a provider. This may not be necessary today because of society, but it is definately part of what attracted women to men for long before civilization had even been thought of, and I believe still plays a role today.

Not to flame anybody, but are the "breasts" real in Maria? if not then, the woman put on a charade to attract, right? No disrespect Mondesi, but the article is a bit of a one sided opinion and based on a young couple experience. As you get older, much older sex becomes secondary, it still vital for many reasons, but not crucial. Now being fit is not only vital it is crucial for survival.

So did you break up with the woman in your before photo after you got so self centered and cocky, or was that before you started telling people how great you are?

It's not all about the sex. You just need to find somebody that has the same motivation, goals, and desire that you have in certain things or in life in general.

When I was overweight. I was with an overweight girl. I didnt have any motivation, goals, or desire for working out and being healthy. Once I did I could not get that girlfriend to do it with me. That made it tough. We became complete opposites and eventually broke up.

Now I found the "perfect" girl. (In my eyes). She has motivation, goals, and the desire to succeed in life. And I'm emtionally and physically attracted to her.

I believe that pure physical attraction between 2 people will not last but it helps tremendously if there is also an emotional bond between the 2 people.

I dont mean to put anybody down but to the people that arent agreeing, I would guess you do not care much about physical beauty. You might not have the motivation and desire to look your best.

To find the perfect mate you need both emotional and physical attraction.

Motivation and Desire = Success

I don't know if you keep up with history but the symbols and the phsyique that women aspire to personify, and the symbols of fertility have changed drastically in the past 100 years, let alone in the last thousand.

Small waist a symbol of fertility??? History paintings from the middle ages show bigger bustier women, with huge waists as symbols of fertillity. Hell, Marilyn Monroe was considered almost anoerexic in her time. Today she would be a plus size model.

No, her tits are obviously fake. I think she would be much more attractive if she had not chosen to insert fake balloons into her chest. The self-esteem issue is another thing altogether.

Where are you getting your garbage information from? Since the dawn of human history, the symbols of female fertility have been fat, very fat - particularly in the places where the female sex hormone, estrogen, stores fat. Have you ever seen photos of Venus the fertility goddess? She is round, curvaceous, and a far cry from the stick thin women we see today.

Get your facts straight. Marilyn Monroe was a size 16 at the height of her career. Big breasted, small waisted women only came into "fashion" recently.

Talking

Now, I'm sorry but that has to be one of the WORST articles I've ever read. It isn't very well thought-out, it isn't exactly concise and the author comes across like he's a complete egotistical imbecile.

Did you actually do any research into evolution and anthropology for this? It's fairly obvious the answer is no. Women back when you were talking about didn't have small waists, and usually didn't have big breasts either.
Breasts didn't come into play for attracting a mate - they are mammary glands designed to feed infants, so a man's natural instinct is for the size of the HIPS, not the breasts. A small waist then was also seen as something lacking - not that it mattered, we were all dressed in sackcloth and ashes back then. It is evolutionary FACT that men are mainly attracted towards the size of the hips, nothing else, as it's a major sign of fertility.

Apart from that, you then completely contradict yourself by saying that women have to be "fit" - in other words, the bodyfat will decrease, along with breast-size and hip-size, so HOW could that possibly be evolutionary?

Just out of interest, what's your opinion on people who fall in love AND lust without ever having seen each other? Is that possible?

Intriguing article. Pity it's full of BS.
