It is hardly just a single trash TV program, as per above it seems to be a social media thing and perhaps setting certain trends too. The trash TV program is merely a reflection of this stuff, people focusing on the fact this was seen on a trash TV program are perhaps missing that.

Don't know why people complain about these things. Its not that hard to get a good body, its just a case of how much effort you are willing to make. The people on things like love island generally have their appearance as their number one concern in life and quite often make a living from it. If you are a carpenter or a mechanic I'm sure you have put a lot of time and work into learning the skills required for that.
Yes we should tell young people that looks aren't everything but we also shouldn't tell them that their health and therefore appearance don't matter at all. Thats why we have an obesity issue that we are dealing with primarily by trying to lie and say that its OK, normal and healthy.

I just watched the video in the OP and i probably should have before the Toblerone bit, but the guy sounds like a total poofter so tbh i totally understand why none of them girls want him.
none of them have a toblorone tunnel ... btw.
There's this one girl at work that does but if a 40-year-old man gets caught taking pics of a Swedish 20 year old women, im going to prison....

LOL, probably counts as some form of rape under Sweden's current laws.

No no no, didn't you not hear being "plus size" is totally normal and you should be allowed to be happy in your own massive folds of skin??!
Also echo the sentiment of not being happy about the description curvy being hijacked by she-whales. There's not much curvy about oblate spheroids

Anyone that goes on or watches that show should be burnt in a power plant to provide free power to those of us with intelligence and taste

Young guys seem to hammer steroids and spray tans from their early twenties now. It gives them the ability to hump fine young ladies who are generally thick as mince. Fair play to them though. I'm kinda jealous lol.
Toblerone tunnel is a new phrase to me but I've always been a fan of that feature in women out of my league

You are right but we starting to see the side effects now in men when they hit their 30's. Developing all these crazy health issues which they shouldnt be having at that age.
No, but such nonsense is reported on in the nation's favourite ****-rags.
Wouldn't surprise me if it causes a big surge in infertile blokes a few years down the line

Got any links? I've suspected there would be something of a looming health crisis attached to this particular 'fad'.

They are just talking crap. There's definitely been an increase in the amount of young men that go to the gym and lift but it's not the majority. Also I would imagine the amount who regularly use steroids or other PEDs is in the single digit percentages.
nobody said it was a majority, but its clearly a problem and health officials have been warning about it for several years.

Oh yeah no doubt. Their testosterone levels are naturally high as hell yet they all screw up their hormones and never think of consequence. Fair enough if you are in your 30s and have reached a physical peak. But if you are 18yr old and necking dbol then you need to get a grip really.
Just a converation I having with a work collegaue whose family members are dietitians and sports physiotherapists. They see a lot of people in their 30's who have fantastic bodies because they are in the gym 24/7 but have type 2 diabetes. Also coming in with shoulder and knee problems.
