It's a bit of both. I can see these hobbies leading to a healthy relationship, but anyone who thinks the answer isn't "hit the gym" is coping.

(Btw I'm no gym rat, but this is a fact)

[–] Shapillon@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Hitting the gym can't hurt but it's very low on my list of priorities.

Being chill, open with one's emotions, able to communicate reasonably, willing to help around etc are way higher.

Usually being a woman helps too but life's life.

[–] ripripripriprip@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Those aren't really hobbies, though.

[–] Vilian@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Isn't drag queen literally being woman as a hobbie?

The issue us that the hobbies you have have little correlation with whether or not women like you. I do many things on the list of hobbies that women find unattractive, but I don't have trouble pulling because very little of attracting a sexual partner actually has to do with having a lot in common with them. It's more of vibey thing like that guy was saying.

At the same time, the gym is gonna help self image and self confidence which will help you be fun chill and easygoing which will help you get laid.

[–] Shapillon@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago

Exactly!

As long as they're not punt kicking kitten or dropkicking old folks, hobbies are pretty much irrelevant imho.

[–] punkfungus@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 month ago (2 children)

As someone who does hit the gym, in my experience the majority of people you're impressing with your physique are men. Sure I'd say most women like it if you have it (assuming you aren't too big), but generalising that it's the main attraction would be a mistake.

[–] lseif@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 month ago

good thing thats my goal too :-)

[–] lorty@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 month ago

Anyone who has been around actual gym rats knows that it's never the opposite sex they are chatting, comparing and posing with.

I'd put "hit the dermatologist" above it. Plenty of girls go for the skinny or husky builds. But blemishes are a universal turn off

[–] GiveMemes@jlai.lu 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The benefits of hitting the gym are much more than just getting swole. It increases self-confidence, helps to improve self-image, etc, which are all way more important to getting laid than any hobby you could have.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It increases self-confidence, helps to improve self-image, etc

I could say exactly the same of the dermatologist.

[–] GiveMemes@jlai.lu 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Not at a biochemical/hormonal level, which you definitely can for at least physical activity.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

???

You don't think acne is biochemical or hormonal?

[–] GiveMemes@jlai.lu 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

No. I don't think that going to a dermatologist causes significant hormonal changes like exercising regularly does. Why would I ever think that salicylic acid and antibiotics would affect my neurotransmitters and hormones significantly? They don't...

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I don’t think that going to a dermatologist causes significant hormonal changes

I don't think you've ever been to a dermatologist

[–] GiveMemes@jlai.lu 1 points 1 month ago

The fact that some derms offer hormonal therapy for certain cases of severe acne does not make that regular by any means. If you have a hormonal problem you go to an endocrinologist.

[–] Prandom_returns@lemm.ee 7 points 1 month ago

Too much generalisation for my taste.

[–] uis@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

There is even song about it!
