A woman on AAS is always going to be less appealing than before their use - PERIOD!!

It certainly seems to be a very ignorant and biased opinion.  The author needs to base his opinion on medical facts, for his opinion to be anything other than that - an opinion.

But that's my opinion.  <!--emo&--><img src="http://musclechemistry.mantisforums.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=''><!--endemo-->

With current medication, I don't think a female can get too big without getting virilization symptoms as well. As long as virilization does not occur, it's cool IMO.

I think these guys are full of shit <!--emo&?/--><img src="http://musclechemistry.mantisforums.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sly.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='?/'><!--endemo--> Since I started taking aas I have increased muscle mass and cut fat. I have guys that I know at the gym, telling me I look good and that my arms and legs look great. They even make comments to my husband, but no comment has ever been negative or that I am too big. Most guys I know are really impressed and like it. They do not know, but might assume that I am taking something, but it feels great to know that they can see a difference from when I first started. Also, just because a woman is taking something does no mean that she is going to be huge.
I just think they are jealous and stereotype women to look a certain way.  We all do not have toothpick arms and legs and to me that looks so unhealthy.  I do not want to look frail and fragile.  The bottom line is that women can take aas if they are smart about it.  The problem with these guys is that they are probably not that smart.   <!--emo&**--><img src="http://musclechemistry.mantisforums.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/devil.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='**'><!--endemo-->

first off it is not strictly a male hormone.. lol.. we do produce some of our own..
viralization.. that is something that if the woman monitors what, how much, etc.. and is cautious with what she is doing.. it can be kept at a minimum or not at all... that is why much research by the female..not her boyfriend.lol.. must be done.. a women needs to know how and what is gonna effect her .. so this way she can tell what is going on with her body... and she needs to start light.. hell i have tried things that most would say nuts for.. but love every bit of it..

musclewoman.. i so much agree with you on the sterotype part... i have such problems buying cloths.. because they do not fit right.. jeans forget it.. i am lucky if i can find them to fit the right way. they are all made for girls with chicken legs... as for people knowing.. i had that only really once.. i was getting really bad breakouts on my shoulders.. and one guy said to me.. what you taking.. as i say nothing. he's staring at this red patches on my shoulder.. saying to me YA RIGHT>>> lol...

as for myself.. i love the feeling of the muscle.. i am not huge.. yet solid.. guys stare when stickler and i are at the gym... and when i can go curl 30's next to some guy .. who happens to be curling the same weight.. lol.. what a feeling..
but it's not cause i am huge that they stare.. i think its every other girl is like 90lbs soaking wet.. on the stair master for 10hrs.. or fat... one or the other .

from what i heard some guys like that fact that chicks on gear.. have butts to die for... lol....

My wife lifts and uses very little aas. She was a college swimmer and cross country runner in Cali b4 I met her. The ladies are right. She does have a hard time with form fitting clothes, especially pants due to thigh thickness. Maybe a new line of clothes should be manufactured for female bodybuilders. Just my 2cc's.
