This is the one thing I'll never understand about women. Now, of course, I'll start this off by saying I know every woman isn't like this, but there are a lot of them. They look at magazines, they see some svelte, toned woman and think to themselves "God, that is so disgusting that the media is trying to push that UNREALISTIC standard for beauty. This is corrupting other women." When what they really mean is "I'm jealous of this person and the hard work they put in for their body. I'm too petty to admit that, so I'm going to complain on social media, and ask society to change it's standard for beauty so that I can shoehorn myself into it."  Firstly, a healthy diet and spending 6 hours a week in the gym is not fucking unrealistic. If you can't fit that into your busy schedule, then you're not prioritizing it. Secondly, as a man, whenever I see another man that I think is objectively more attractive than I am, or a man who is more muscular than I am, I don't say "I want to change society's goalpost for what beauty is." I say: "I want to be more like him, so I'll work harder." The first time I saw Tom Hardy as Bane, I was 18 years old, and his physique on the big screen rocked me to my fucking core. Now, maybe he did a little bit of steroids to achieve that physique, but that was still an image that stuck with me and inspired me to start lifting. I'm a better person for having done it, too. The truth will only ever make you better off.
