Whilst I agree to an extent, I think it's also important to understand that the majority of the people that come across looksmaxing will not actually start looksmaxing.

I think this is cope. Normies will absolutely follow trends.

still changes ways of thinking. there was a time when people following the number 1 rule on botb, don't tell anybody. this used to be our place, now its overrun with 15yo greys asking the same question for the 500th time

[jackmaxxd]

This will be a passing trend that everyone will forget about and women looksmaxx by default so nothings changed there.

they did make it "mainstream" but most see it as a tiktok trend and clav (among others) is unironically a pioneer of this shit

Looksmaxxing was already a popular idea for selfimprovement youtubers in like 2021, and bp became mainstream in like 2023 cuz of tiktok. Besides this stuff in general there has been an increase in the male beauty industry. More and more men were already getting surgeries. It was inevitable even if it happened earlier if not cuz of bp.

 

[Informationcapitali]

I would of had my oneitis if bp fidnt go mainstream

It definitely wasn’t in 2020 or 2021, the sharp turn happened in 2023. And unlike some predictions from back then, it’s still rising progressively.

Mostly kids or teenagers have the time to engage with this kind of stuff, and since they usually lack a sense of self during that developmental period, combined with natural urges for sex, women, and social inclusion/acceptance, looks become the most important factor in their lives.
They will do anything to achieve that, and will absolutely act on the trend.

Plastic surgeries or steroid abuse will be completely normalised in like a few years at the latest.
Steroid abuse arguably is already.

 

[MaxorDie]

this is true but normies aren’t low inhib enough to pin roids get surgery or do diy aqualyx at home, all they do is cope skincare. all the “mewing mog” tiktokcels in 2023 js bought cologne mewed saw no results and moved on after 3 months JFL

i mean just the idea of looksmaxxing. I guess it was kinda niche, but I just mean in the self improvement genre. For instance I remember watching this video like in


Here's an old austin wayne video


Even Derek from more plates more dates made a video about it


I personally also remember old hamza videos.
In general it was a topic discussed.

There was some increased exposure with guys like Wheat doing debates with Hamza and other moderately (at least back then) popular YouTubers.
I always listened to them while going for a walk back in 2021.

FACEandLMS were among my first points of contact regarding the BP.

Derek was always kind of autistic in his research, and the bodybuilding scene in general has a huge overlap with this scene.

Anyway, it was extremely niche back then. I don’t even know if I had joined at that point, but the one time I checked the member count before the TikTok invasion, there were only around 2500-3000 members.

Now, even this extremely autistic site reaches those numbers in like a few days, if it weren’t for the mods.
