Information on musle growth? Sthenolagnia

[stevo98fordexp]

Hey everyone,

I have been into muscle growth for as long as I can remember. I read a lot of posts and everything. Sthenolagnia. Apparently it is a word that is used for people that are turned on by muscle growth. I've searched high and low on the internet for information but I cant seem to find anything useful. Wikipedia only has a small amount of information on this topic. Anybody have other information?

Thanks

(Source: The Sun Newspaper, March 9th 2007)

We've all gasped with disbelief at the mega-bronzed muscle-bound ladies in those weird bodybuilding competitions, but Sthenolagnia is a condition where men find that hugely sexually attractive. These men like to be wrestled, lifted up and even carried around by their big iron-pumping dreamgirls.

A quick google pulls up more than 2400 hits.

If you have access to a good academic and/or public library, try searching the term in PsycLit / PyscArticles. That's where the journal literature will be.

All the best & xoxo...
