Ain’t nothing truer than this

First off, "some of y'all" doesn't apply, I'm not part of the American groupthink or an active participant of this subreddit, so there isn't a "y'all," it's just me.

Now let's talk about the hypocrisy. Is it really hypocrisy? What is body positivity? For someone who's fit and values being fit, that sounds a lot like loving your own body. Being ignorant about how badly you're treating it and telling everyone else that it's tolerance doesn't really sound like body positivity, even if that's the name they used to coin it.

Body positivity, in my opinion, is accepting people who are disabled, thyroid-deficient, diabetic or with other issues that actually challenge an individual to look "average" health-wise. Considering them to be valid, attractive and available is body positivity. Excusing some person who never considered exercise, saying no to feasts on pastries and getting some Sun once a week isn't body positivity, it's a dangerous habit being excused by individuality.

Even if gay, buff, white men are walking out of their routine to encourage people to be happy about their body while being hypocritical, I profoundly doubt that it's an issue worth complaining about. There are underlying irks by the OP here, this shouldn't be something he's actively against.

As for the gym part of your comment, I'm not particularly fit and I don't eat as well as I could, but I do my part to be a healthy person, which honestly, should be just the benchmark. Anyway, the people you described that aren't similar to the gym stereotype usually give up in a three-month window. If you're going to college, I doubt you're going to be best friends with the crowd that is going to inevitably leave on the first semester.

Now, let's ignore all of that and assume that yes, this very specific group of people likes to be with their own very specific group of people. So? Why do you want to be with them? Why are they a problem? Why do they hurt you? Why do you have to look at them? Leave them be. That's all we, LGBT, have been asking of society at large since genesis. They are not obliged to tolerate, enjoy, or appreciate you. Go find your own crowd.
