Body standards are "difficult" to obtain for a reason. Having a fit body, not just good genetics, shows you work harder than others and that your threshold for quitting is higher than others. Pleading for the body standard to be lowered is like a kid who just got a C in algebra 2 expecting to be accepted into MIT for engineering. Our bodies are real estate. You can't ask full price if your property is on the verge of being condemned.
