Do you gymcel?

I was pretty fit back when I was 18-20. Only dudes complimented me on my physique, usually got asked a lot of questions on what I eat or what my workout routine is like. Never changed anything with women. Gymcel is cope. Oh well, at least I didn't start working out just to get laid; I only worked out to build strength. I wanted to be strong in case a femoid set her white knights upon me for accidentally glancing at her (trust me, it can happen).

I still kinda want to lift just enough to defend myself. Don't want to get my ass kicked for accidentally looking at a femoid and have her scream rape, then her whole brigade of orbiters, white-knight chads descend upon me.

My experience is identical, although I wouldn't rely on lifting to give you skill at fighting. I've also been into wrestling and kickboxing for a long time and given the choice, I'd feel safer with an average body and a few months of training/sparring at a fighting gym than with just gym strength and no experience fighting.
