Just speaking of my own personal experiences with using shirtless bathroom selfies on Tinder.
When I was at my natty peak (160-165 lbs at 5'9 and ~11% bf), I would get zero matches on Tinder. Most recently, at 200-205 lbs at ~17% bf, I got 6-8 matches in one day (don't remember exactly how many, and I can't go back and check since I deleted my tinder). Both times, the only other pics included were selfies focused on the face, though I put a lot more effort into angle/lighting fraud earlier when I was lighter and leaner. I also took my shirtless selfie at the lower body weight when I had a pump from pushups and low-weight high-rep bicep curls, while the shirtless selfie at the higher body weight had no pump.
6-8 matches in a day is a complete joke to most of you, I'm sure, but as a truecel, it's more than I would've ever imagined having before. I've confirmed with Photofeeler and Tinder experiments that body halo is absolutely real, so I'm curious to see how I'll fare once I get lean again. As I'll be using test and tren to cut, I don't think I'll lose as much lbm as I would have otherwise as a natural. (Naturals who cut can expect somewhere between 1/4 and 1/3 of their weight loss to be lean mass, one of several reasons why dieters tend to be disappointed with how they look in the mirror after reaching a certain goal weight, another being the tendency to underestimate body fat.)
In any case, leanmaxxing is mostly for face in my opinion, but the main point of bodymaxxing is to increase sexual dimorphism, something you can't get purely through being lean. Especially outside/irl, when you're in a shirt and nobody can see your skinny guy abs anyway. Big and ripped is obviously ideal, but big and fluffy is obviously more dimorphic than skinny and ripped.
