French Decathlete Kevin Mayer

Ah but we all have different tastes. He's an athlete not a body builder so big muscles are totally inappropriate to his career. As a Francophile I think he is truly hot & not all of us find artificially large muscles attractive but prefer a more natural lean physique. Room for all.

Who said anything about being a bodybuilder? Who says big muscles are any more artificial than lean muscles? There are many "athletes" who have muscles, most of them. This guy looks like a slightly pumped up Justin Bieber. Oh, and you might find that most bodybuilers (a body type I don't care for either) are "athletes" and most decathletes have a lot more muscle than this aging French twink.

 

And he still won the decathelon silver medal at these Olympics. Not bad for an aging, FRENCH!!, Bieberish twink. Have a little respect for an amazing athlete. He must be doing something right.

I just registered that two posters in this thread have cited "French" as a reason they don't find him attractive. What on Earth is that about?

 

I am a lifelong Francophile, but long ago i stopped defending France and the French to Francophobes. I found that most of them had no particular reason to "hate" the French, and overwhelmingly had never been there or even met a French person. Their dislike was based on negative stories mostly created in the years after WWII when rich Americans flooded France, many with a brashness and sense of entitlement painful to a broken, but still proud people who resented the expectation that everyone should speak English and things should be just like back in Dubuque. This gave rise to two urban legends- the Cold, Rude French, and the Ugly American. Both are unhelpful stereotypes. Haters on both sides need to get over it. I have been blessed to spend many wonderful visits to France, where I have been treated very well.
