Much has been written on this site about how feminism plus hyper-capitalism has created an obsession with mesomorphs with those without great genes taking gear to compensate
A spornosexual is a muscular guy who spends all his time getting built and looking good to apttract one of the few non fat English women. This guy is one of them
The 22-year-old Geordie is an unashamed ‘spornosexual,’ a term coined last month by the writer Mark Simpson to describe young men who take cues on their appearance from sportsmen and pornstars. According to Simpson, these men boast “painstakingly pumped and chiselled bodies, muscle-enhancing tattoos, piercings, adorable beards and plunging necklines…their own bodies have become the ultimate accessories”.
Spornosexual may be an uglier, clumsier word than metrosexual - the term Simpson came up with to describe a new breed of man 20 years ago - but then spornosexuals themselves are less subtle than their metrosexual predecessors. With metrosexuality and the grooming it entails becoming the norm, men have to go to ever greater lengths to stand out.
You don’t have to have heard of the term before to have noticed that men are getting bigger. The sort of bodies that once only graced the cover of Men’s Health are popping up in pubs; men are fretting about getting themselves ‘beach ready’ in a way that used to be limited to women; the UK fitness supplement industry is now worth more than £260 million; hiring a personal trainer is no longer the preserve of celebrities and athletes but something office workers do too.

While working out and looking good is essential to a happy life, the extremes that are now the norm reflect extreme hypergamy.
What is sad is when you travel around the UK you see guys who look like this with fat birds that look ten years older than them with tatoos and someone else's children
