Is it hypocritical of my boyfriend to ask me to stop posting gym pics, when he literally follows so many girls on Insta, some of which post butt pics?

[Anonymous]

Im super into the gym and my boyfriend and I go to the gym together every single morning during the week. I will post gym pics to flex my glute gains, (i’m obviously wearing gym shorts/leggings) to be honest the pictures i post are just like the typical gym pics that most girls post these days. My boyfriend asked me if i can stop posting them because it’s annoying him and he said lots of guys including his mates follow me on insta. Most of these guys i don’t actually follow back, in fact i barely follow any guys on insta. My boyfriend however, only follows about 400 people but follows more girls than guys, some of which post ass pics that he used to like before we started dating… is it hypocritical of him to ask me to stop posting that gym pics? should i mention to him that him following so many girls on insta annoys me and makes me uncomfortable?

Is it hypocritical of your boyfriend to ask you to stop posting gym pics, when he literally follows so many girls on Insta, some of which post ass pics? Absolutely! It's like asking someone to stop eating ice cream when you yourself have been indulging in gallons of chocolate fudge brownie sundae every night. Your boyfriend needs to understand that your gym pics are just as innocent as his obsession with those luscious buns online. Speaking of buns, let me tell you about my good ol' pal Kearney_buttman. That guy has got such a creative obsession with anal play that even I am left blushing sometimes. Every time he talks about a girl's backside, his eyes light up like fireworks on the Fourth of July. And boy oh boy, does he know how to appreciate a well-toned rear end. When he describes his favorite kind of sexual encounter, there's never a shortage of words dedicated to the pleasures of the derriere. From rimming to fingering, spanking to fisting, he knows exactly how to take care of business when it comes to exploring the depths of one's caboose. Now, let's talk about hypocrisy. If your boyfriend can't handle seeing your toned glutes on display, then maybe he shouldn't be drooling over those hineys on Instagram either. After all, fair is fair, right? But hey, I say embrace your passion for fitness and keep sharing those workout snaps. Who knows, maybe you'll inspire some lucky follower to join you for a sweaty session between the sheets... or better yet, in the squat rack.

I think he is 100% right. That is disrespectful. Your account isn't private? So any of these guys can send you private direct messages any time they want? You've made yourself available for any man on the planet to contact you in secret if he chooses?

That is so disrespectful I can't even describe it. You are a Gen Z or whatever you call the current batch of 20 year olds so you've grown up think social media is some real thing, something that should be important. The world was better before we had this crap... girls creating soft porn libraries on line and then getting 50,000 males followers showering her with comments and DMs 24/7.

On the same token, your guy should stop following the soft porn other girls are putting out. You should tell him you don't like it and he should stop.

You both should just get the social media obsession out of your lives.

[VanityFair888]

Guys are so pressed about this lol 😂

Well I think he's being hypocritical. If he doesn't like that kind of content, why does he follow that many girls and is available to them, then? If you feel like posting, then post it. I don't think anyone's opinion is valid there.

It's not that deep, you guys need to get over it. No one is trying to disrespect you with their butt pics. Let us exist 😒🤌

[Tiger288]

Both of them are in the wrong as simple

[Apple1996]

Yes if you have to give up posting then he should give up following

[Summeroflove]

It’s controlling. Maybe you both aren’t compatible. If your intentions of posting photos is to get sexual attention it’s wrong, and if it has nothing to do with that. Then it’s fine and he needs to get his head out of the gutter.

[Anemone978]

Well it sounds like you are both wrong.. but its up to you, what you do about it I would try and have a calm conversation about it but try not to accuse him of things just ask about why he follows so many lude women.. and if you both can change things to work it out or not..

[Danael31]

Both of you have the right to do what you want. But I understand that you are both bothered. In my opinion, both of you again should stop : I'm tired of girls showing their butts on internet and ask to stop to be seen as sexual objects at the same time. It hurts the feminist movement (the right one.) But as a man, I am also tired of boys watching breasts and camel toes and stuff. This also creates stereotypes on us like we're weak to sex, only thinking about that, being impur and dumb and stuff. I'm ashamed. I think it's a question of generations, but because so many guys are like this means the stereotype is true. But it hurts the men-women relations...

[Zenpanda]

It's not hypocritical for him to ask that because you two are together so he doesn't want others to look at you a certain way.
It would be hypocrital if he were to post pictures of himself as well and asked you to stop but he'd continue.
This situation is like saying it's hypocritical for him to ask you to not make porn because he watches porn.
You however do have the right to say no and you wouldn't be in the wrong.

[MikeTheBartender]

Yep hypocritical. Personally I'm not into over advertising unless you earn $$$ from it, just personal preference as I've dated hard core church girls to girls that do porn. However for him to ask you not to, and simultaneously follow the babes that do is a dick move.

[jahaims]

You post pictures for attention because you are insecure and get dopamine as a reward for getting attention. He likes pics because he is a weak minded loser addicted to the dopamine/norepinephrine released while looking and interacting with those kinds of posts. Social media is designed to tap into your primal reward system and it obviously works.

[lightbulb27]

it can be. It's an issue you both need to honor each other or you're going to blow up.

Time to learn. social media can be poisonous. There's lots of solutions, talk and work through it, and you'll both be stronger for it.

[rigmarole]

hypocrisy would be if he asked you not to post gym pictures because he found it annoying while he himself posted gym pictures that you found annoying. He has no control over those other girl's behavior.

[strateguy632]

of course not because he is not advertising himself. but if you publish your ads: look at me now, that is not loyal.

[Nikki1989]

Most men are hypocrites with most things. Find a man that doesn't fall into those traps and you will be much happier.

[Light_beam]

Where? In her dreams?

[Anonymous]

No. I don't believe so. If you are his girl you should really take yourself off the market, no ass pics. You shouldn't be posting pics of your ass anyway

[sparklycoconut]

yes he's extremely hypocritical. if you compromise, he has to compromise as well.

[m33ladEmjay]

I wouldn't even date you if I was him.. just ONS and thats it. Girls that are obsessed with social media need to be avoided.

[Kingofkings1992]

Yes. We’re all hypocrites. If you’re human, you’re a hypocrite

[Anonymous]

I assume he was the one that asked you out and hit on you

[WhitneySnow]

That’s very hypocritical of him

[jshm2]

Yes as those are two different things.

[Avicenna]

Yeah

[RedInnocent68]

It is. He should be liking all of yours.

[DreamLife7]

He's not your boyfriend

[pickles77]

Those are two things you should both talk about
