Adobe Physiques Are a Growing Trend
These days the biggest craze on social media are photographs—more specifically, selfies and Adobe physiques. While personally, I think it’s out of control and totally narcissistic, to each their own. You can’t log into Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or whatever social media platform you’re using without seeing pictures plastered everywhere with individuals basically naked right in front of your eyes, leaving nothing to the imagination. You can generally catch a toilet in the background as for some reason there is an obsession with bathroom selfies (that’s actually quite disgusting). That seems to be the way the fitness industry is these days. However, women are probably some of the worst when it comes to selfies. No more is it, “how does my makeup look today?” Or, “do you like my dress?” Now it’s “check out my fake tits and ass in this dental floss bikini I’m wearing.” It’s totally degrading and upsetting to watch women have no self-worth anymore without these types of images.
Adobe physiques are everywhere
It’s one thing to get plastic surgery done, but changing your physique simply by “editing” photos of yourself raises an eyebrow. What are you trying to prove? Plastic surgery is, for the most part, a permanent thing (unless you have complications and things need to be removed). To get a bigger bust women go under the knife to enhance their breasts. If they suffer from a pancake butt, they go under the knife to get implants to make them nice and round. Thin lips? No problem, we’ll shoot them up and have you looking like a duck in no time! But let’s not leave out the guys. No calves? Get implants. Holding onto some abdominal fat, go ahead and get lipo and while you’re there don’t forget to have them insert fake abs to make sure you’re rockin that six-pack year round. Do I agree with all of the surgeries out there? No. But at least what you see if what you get. If you see their picture online and meet them in person, they at least look the same. With Adobe physiques, what you see on social media more times than not is drastically different than what you would see in real life.
When I think of selfies in today’s era, I can’t help but think about the writing on car mirrors— “objects in mirror are closer than they appear”. When in actuality, if you were to create your own tagline for the fitness industry selfie posts, it should say something like this… “Nothing in the mirror is as it appears”. Because it’s not. Enter the new-age world of digital editing. More specifically, the world of Adobe physiques — where you can take a four-hundred-pound man and turn him into a Greek Adonis wearing a shield made from the hardest abdominals anyone has ever seen in a matter of minutes. Don’t believe me? Go to YouTube and search for “Photoshop body” and you will find tons of videos showing you how easy it is to manipulate images and turn duds into studs. Then comes the harsh reality. While using software like Adobe (Photoshop) may help a person look more appealing (Adobe physiques), the reality is, once you step outside the worldwide web, and close your front door to face the real world, you’re still a fat bastard.
