You might find the most insecure, and via projection potentially toxic, are those you might consider, ‘ripped’; they tend to validate their insecurity with an over-emphasis on body-this can take many forms, for example steroid use and eating disorders. Unfortunately exaggerated body forms have been re-enforced by Gay media since BG (before Gay).

Then again, there are good looking guys that are…nice.
