I'm a 37 year old male and can't do a pushup. What's the big deal? People on here think it's ok to personally attack me for that. Is the only important thing to some how many pushups you can do?

Just checked your posting history and this appears to be the first ever post by you in the Exercise and Fitness forum. Looks like you only just joined CD about 40 minutes ago and all ofyour posts so far are in the Immigration forum. Also didnt see anywhere else in the 20+ posts you have where anyone said anything to you about it.

No big deal.

No big deal.
It's because idiots reported me and my posts were removed.

I suggest to you go read the CD terms of service then. Learn the rules and follow them and there will be no need for anyone to report you ever.

Peace.

There is no peace. It is too late for me here.

Maybe someone else can beat me up.

It's not a big deal man. If it is a big deal to you, then that's another thing- however, if you don't care, then ignore everyone who brings you down.

It is lame to brag about how many pushups one can do. But, the fact that you can't even do one indicates that you have serious health issues. Are you massively overweight?

How do people know that you can't do a pushup unless you tell them? It's not quite a thing you can tell just by looking at someone.

Though of course when I first meet people I demand that they drop and give me 20.

Because if someone can't do pushups they are in bad physical condition, especially a man because males are built to have more upper body strength. Being concerned about fitness isn't ridiculous if you look at what lack of physical activity can cause.
