It has nothing to do with that.

I have an extended family member that was parading around in sequin dresses, in love with Judy Garland and acting super flaming at age 6. His parents (conservative, church goers, still married to this day traditional) didn't encourage it, it was just literally what he gravitated to when given the choice. He never deviated on the path to being 'fabulous'. So yes, it can happen.

Elite bodybuilding isn't exactly full of stable, mentally healthy individuals. They're almost all seeking acknowledgement and recognition from society to make up for their perceived inadequacies (usually from childhood) and let's face it, being a woman is now prized above even the most "perfect" masculine appearance.
Even being a fake woman has the entire establishment swooning and bending over backwards to congratulate you for your courage.
Checkmat said:I agree. When I was younger I used to think bodybuilders must be bastions of confidence and really were the pinnacle of male achievement. I looked up to them so much as role models, always wishing I could be more like them.
When I grew up, I spent more and more time in bodybuilding and MMA gyms. Now I assume most bodybuilders, male and female, have serious mental health issues. A lot that I have met have eating disorders, dysmorphia, self-hatred, depression, etc. I mean I know a lot of people in general have mental health problems, but in the niche demographic of strength athletes it really seems to attract some damaged individuals.

Shit, a guy I know who now teaches University Math courses told me how his female babysitter coerced him (raped i guess) into having sex when he was sub 10 years old or so. And yeah, dudes gay.
I'm willing to bet Matt was abused as a child, and become a bodybuilder to fight his inner demons that were created because of that.
