No. I mean I wouldn't be happy if I was frail and would be strongly motivated by getting stronger but I wouldn't be embarrassed about it. Plus, even though I'm into fitness and am relatively quite strong and athletic for my age, I don't have to look far to find a guy who is taller, and bigger, and stronger than me in lots of motions. Doesn't bother or embarrass me. I accept my limitations and my pride comes from being relatively stronger than I started, not so much from absolutes and comparing myself to the strongest men in the entire world.

Plus I've been rendered really weak at times when I had broken bones, for example, and was on crutches. I didn't find it embarrassing. I found it frustrating but not exactly embarrassing.

[SuperManiac]

What might make me feel ashamed is if I grew weak and soft due to sheer laziness and neglect, like letting myself go. In that case, maybe I would feel something like a shame because I can actually blame myself for my frail condition. But I don't think I would if the circumstances were beyond my control, like if I was hit by a car and became frail that way. I'd have an easier time accepting that and not feeling ashamed since I figure it could happen to the best of us.

Plus I'd be constantly embarrassed if I felt a need to be the strongest guy in a room. I once arm-wrestled a local sumo wrestler here in Japan who was around 2 meters tall and he nearly tore my arm off without flinching. My arm was sore for like a week after. :-D So I'm screwed if I was insecure not being the strongest guy in a room. But I figure if I had to race the sumo wrestler in 100M dash, I could effortlessly beat him there at least and run circles around him. So I can find some pride that way and avoid feeling embarrassed, and instead pat him on the back and compliment him for how strong he is and admire his strength without feeling like some lesser man as a result.

wtf, why is everything backwards now?
its like people in general are now taking the reversed route for everything,
typically girls like stronger big guys with muscles and about 10yrs ago every girl here would say they want a strong guy... now its like all girls have purposely went against the grain and say they want weak guys now... wtf... why that switch? what for?

[Anonymous]

I like weaker guys my reasons are well just like that anonymous girl who said "I like physically weak guys... maybe I'm just weird lol" I don't like intimidating guys we either equal or you're the weaker one I just like being relied on and I'd love to just overpower him im more into cute guys anyways like she said might be some sort of fetish or just preference? we all have preferences same reason guys like weaker girls.

[Massageman]

No. I'll just beat the bully off with my walker.

[dailymotion27]

I don't know if it's necessarily embarrassing but I know I would not want to be "physically weak." Being able to just lift things or move things around the house is very handy, and you can probably have better health if you're generally stronger. So yes, in a way, I guess it is embarrassing. Personally I don't know anyone who wakes up in the morning and thinks, "I would love to be physically weak..."

[Crizoo]

There was a time when I struggled to lift a 25 kilo sack of potatoes, now I can lift one with 1 hand. I wasn't too bothered at the time but thinking back I must have looked pathetic.

[Ac211]

It can be embarrassing but tbh we shouldn't think that we have to be physically strong in order to be accepted by society.

[FriedPickles1218]

No. In the gym around serious lifters I'm a puny little fucktard.

But in the real word I'm most certainly stronger than average. Not by a whole lot, but still.

[Kiran_Yagami]

Yes, because it means if I had to defend myself or if I got into a tussel over pride or honor, I'd lose, and I'd look like a total chump while doing so. No woman who witnessed that would ever touch me.

[Zombie_Pigdragon]

It sucks that I physically shake when I lift over 30 pounds, yes.

[lostnightmare]

Yes, to have no physical strength is embarrassing but you also don't need to be hulk hogan.

[GuidoThePizzaMaker]

If you are a healthy man, there is no excuse
If you have illness/deformity its understandable

[StephenCF]

I don’t, so long as the outfit over my weak, average or strong body make me appear motherfucking alpha! 💪🏻🎩👔🌂👑👑👑

[Anonymous]

I like physically weak guys... maybe I'm just weird lol

[ThisIsMyOpinion]

Why? What is attractive about them? Only thing I can think of is you liking to overpower them.

[Opinion Owner]

@ThisIsMyOpinion I don't know how to explain it... maybe it's for the same reason guys like girls being weaker than them? I think it's cute, I like the idea of wrestling a guy and being able to pin him down. Maybe it's more like a fetish? I don't know though.

I've also never found muscles attractive on guys. I remember way back in highschool me and some friends passed by some muscular guys working out. My friends were saying "ooo I wish I had one of those strong men to carry me onto the bus!" and I replied "meh, I wish I had a cute guy I could carry onto the bus!". They did not understand lmao

[ThisIsMyOpinion]

Well we all have our preferences I guess xD

I don't know if you have since you are Anonymous, but if you haven't leave that opinion here please. Guys would you date a girl stronger than you? Girls would you date a guy weaker than you? ↗

[Opinion Owner]

@ThisIsMyOpinion commented! I just copied and pasted some of my comments lol

[ThisIsMyOpinion]

I see xD

[LeahBaby]

Smaller guys are usually less intimidating from a psychological/physical point of view

[ThisIsMyOpinion]

@LeahBaby is that a good thing? They also look less reliable in both senses as well.

[LeahBaby]

I personally don’t find it attractive, but I understand why some girls do

[pizzalovershouse]

would be for some depending on how good your condition of body is in some may have bad joints do to work or handicapped mysckes

[A-man-22]

I'm just average strength.
I'm not embarrassed.
Men aren't just muscles for others to use.
I'm an actual person with thoughts and feelings.

[Redstang88]

I’m fairly strong so I wouldn’t really know, but I would imagine it would be

[ChiTown33]

Depends what you mean by weak. I think it's embarrassing if a guy can't lift his own body weight.

[God-vs-Satan]

Not totally embarrassing but it is not something I like. I think I am about normal strength of most men.

[Alan95]

I saw a 13-year on Youtube bench 235 and I can barely press 100lbs under that.
Somehow made it intact.

[aleksi_siltala10]

It is pretty embarrassing, but I have got the problem away by lots of drumming so do something..

[MarketNews]

Personally I'm over it. We don't live in caves any more. Mental and spiritual strength are more important.

[Anonymous]

I only go for guys who are weaker than me. Its me who tops. And i dont want a real wrestle.
