Tons of guys out there are influenced by media images of ideal men.
Let's not fool around here. Gyms are filled with guys sweating and grunting away as they attempt to approach the finely chiseled and photo-shopped physiques of men they see in magazines and Hollywood productions. Are they doing it all for their health or for the sake of manly accomplishment? Nah. Most are doing it to look like a guy on the cover of Men's Fitness.
True, men don't whine about the privilege of fit and attractive men. But they are influenced by what the media tells them is the male ideal. Men are more vain and self-conscious about their looks today than ever.
