Abs Are a Scam and I Want Them Anyway
from Tres Leches · host Johnny Sibilly and Juan Torres-Falcon, Ian Paget
The Tres Leches crew is cracking open Netflix’s Fit for TV and the chaos of The Biggest Loser era — where fatphobia was the main character and diet culture ruled reality TV. We’re talking Hunger Games-level weigh-ins, caffeine pills, and producers who cared more about drama than health.But we’re also getting personal: the shady comments that stuck, the Grindr hookups gone wrong, and why even “hot” gays spiral about abs, carbs, and Equinox memberships. From Ozempic to body positivity to living in a world where you’re somehow hypervisible and invisible at the same time… we’re asking the messy, juicy question: what does it actually mean to love your body when everyone else has an opinion about it?
