You guys aren't creeps right?
Would it be okay to show off my tapered physique without being catcalled?

Im considering buying athletic fit clothes and replacing my wardrobe. Tired of saggy tshirts.

I think 'Hey, he's good looking' and then go about with what I was doing. I don't gawk, or stare or catcall or say something lewd.

Good looking men are a dime a dozen where I live.

Where I live, we are one of the few.

Sometimes people ask if they can feel my abs, if I am wearing a Tshirt

Definitely must be where you live, because it seems half of the men I meet under 30 have 6 pack abs.

What one thinks and keeps to themself is different than what one says to a person. Having said that, depending upon the man and the kind of attractiveness, if it's that sexy kind of attractiveness your are alluding to, (likely,) what I think is I'd like to take a biscuit and sop that man up like the meal he was meant to be.

It is hilarious you posted this. So my company recently moved to a new office (of sorts) and one of the security guards there is a good looking buff guy. He totally flaunts his guns by rolling up his uniform sleeves (rolled up short sleeved top, I bet you can picture it.). Obviously it would be abundantly clear he is a buff guy without having to put in the extra effort.

So this guy has been flirting a bit (you know stuff like grabbing the door for me, complaining if I don't talk to him when I pass by....), and I couldn't figure out why I wasn't "gung ho" on the whole thing. Because that sort of behavior....you know the whole chivalry thing is always worth a thousand points with me.

And then I realized it was because he was leading with his brawn and not his brain. I chatted with him this afternoon, and he found some excuses during the conversation to flex his guns at me. :P

So here is my take. If I see a good looking guy dressed well (i.e. stylish well fitting clothing) I am over the moon, there is nothing hotter than a good looking guy who is stylish. (Being stylish and less good looking wins you a ton of points with me as well.)

But if you just wear stuff that obviously only has the purpose of showing off your physique (i.e. wife beaters while not at the beach, those silly mesh shirts.....) Well, it ends up being a turn off. You might be eye candy for a few minutes, but I'm not even remotely interested. You come across as kinda dense.

And I realize it is really horrible to prejudge someone based on their attire and physique.

OK that is just weird. Wouldn't even cross my mind at any level.

Come to the Bay. Way fewer six packs. I think it is because of all of the beer snobs and video gamers.

A lot more of the generally "skinny" types too. And by this I mean, basically straight from shoulder to hips.
