Female Muscle Curiosities: Songs Part 1

Hi again Female Muscle Fans. In this time we'll see a very curious subject based on the passion that moves this site, we are refering to iron goddesses. Believe it or not, athletic women have been the inspiration source of many artworks and songs are not the exception. With female bodybuilding boom many authors have wrotten melodies with reference to these exceptional ladies and as everything, there are divided in 2 parts: pros and against. As not everyone likes something, is locical to think that it will publish something against them, but here all fans of female strenght and burly women who are the reason of this page can openly show their love for this sport with no censorship, they can feel comfortable because this time will be discussed somewhat in favor of these powerful warriors.



In this section we will mention a song that clearly makes a reference to a female athlete, we are refering to Brick House, a composition from The Commodores, a Funk/Soul band from the USA, such hearing work you will find it on the records Commodores (1977) and Greatest Hits (1978). This song at first sight could be referred as a sex anthem, but the lyrics say a lot more than what is normally perceived. The melody talks about a girl who is an athlete. She has a well prained body and this is her best attractive. she is mentioned like an Amazon and she has a boyfriend that is proud of her athletic look. She is known as Brick House, because her muscular body is so massive and hard like steel. A muscular woman can be strong and attractive at the same time and the starring of this song is a clear example about a girl with a passion for exercises and sports is not necessarily a tomboy. Here is the lyrics of it and you judge if it is an ode to a muscular woman or not.



Brick House




She's a brick----house
Mighty mighty, just lettin' it all hang out
She's a brick----house
The lady's stacked and that's a fact, 
ain't holding nothing back. 

She's a brick----house
She's the one, the only one, who's built like a amazon 
We're together everybody knows, 
and here's how the story goes. 

She knows she got everything
a woman needs to get a man, yeah. 
How can she use, the things she use
36-24-36, what a winning hand! 


She's a brick----house
Mighty mighty, just lettin' it all hang out
She's a brick----house
The lady's stacked and that's a fact, 
ain't holding nothing back. 

She's a brick----house
She's the one, the only one, 
who's built like a amazon 
We're together everybody knows, 
and here's how the story goes. 


The clothes she wears, the sexy ways, 
make an old man wish for younger days
She knows she's built and knows how to please
Sure enough to knock a man to his knees


She's a brick----house
Mighty mighty, just lettin' it all hang out
She's a brick----house
The lady's stacked and that's a fact, 
ain't holding nothing back. 

She's a brick----house
She's the one, the only one, 
who's built like a amazon 
We're together everybody knows, 
and here's how the story goes. 


Shake it down, shake it down now



If you hadn't enough, here is the video's corresponding link of this group of the United States: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrBx6mAWYPU



Cultural Breviary



Brick House is a slang in the USA, whose meaning for the song's effects is to highlight a woman with a great physique form. A full-figured female. Really "built". In this case is a woman that is proud of having a muscular body. A great Amazon Warrior that wants to show a new way to appreciate the woman's beauty.

Female Muscle Vs Beauty Role Models

Hi again Female Muscle Fans. In this time, we are going to talk about our passion, the Female Muscle against Beauty Role Models. This is one of the most controversial topics because not everyone are agree with some preferences. And let's begin because this can generate different opinions.



Through the times the woman has been considerated as the "weak sex" because the man has taken care of the hardest works. For that, the woman was relegated of the public recognition. But the time was in charge to put justice in the feminine work to have a shared credit. In the 20th Century, with the appearance of Barbie Dolls, the society began to accept a beauty role model, bringing about a stereotype that the woman had to follow.









Who would have imagined that a popular doll would bring a female stereotype? Some girls have tried to look like Barbie, even to the extreme of promoting serious illness like Bulimia and Anorexy.



When the women finally achieved their entrance in the sport world, specially in the Bodybuilding, the whole society was scared just to think in the latent possibility. The women had started a movement in which the muscle was a reality, and them had become in a new generation in the message for the healthy life. With the exception of the magazines and other media dedicated to the female sport, the rest showed a negative answer and the controversy continued of very unfavorable form for our female gladiators.









This is one of the most mentioned prejudices about these women. Many people have the belief about they want to become in men, but this is not necessarily true. This is a lifestyle for both sexes, so this is just a matter of respect and comprehension.



In the last times, the Audio-Visual Mass Media (TV, Magazines, etc) had generated an unexpected negative effect: the diseases of Bulimia and the Anorexy. The lack of self-esteem, security and confidence in most of the cases create in the affected women a false image about their beauty, and follow bad nutritional habits, food obstacles, inductions to the vomit, and diets non supervised by the doctor that leads to descompensations in the organism that generate a bad health, and even worse, the death.








Do you really believe this model must be imitated? Just think it twice because this is a wrong canon model.



On the other hand, the female athletes are a great inspirational source for all the whole society, because our warrior women got the fundamental values in a sportman or sportwoman (inspiration, overcoming, determination, discipline, commitment and respect). An athlete must to sacrifice many things in the life (family, friends, parties, hobbies, etc) to reach the excellence and to offer a sastisfaction for us in every competition.





These girls have had to fight with stablished paradigmas with respect to female beauty. Over the years, little by little the perception of the people is changing for good. There is a lot of work to do, but they as good warriors will face the challenge.




A female bodybuilder, fitness, figure and the new physique class are training so hard and they want to be recognized as a good example to follow and change the discriminating beauty stereotype for an equal treatment in the whole society. The female muscle can be combined with a dose of beauty, and even can be attractive, beautiful, cute and sensual. A woman who practices sports is still feminine, and she can mixture her sensuality and a great muscle body.










This is the best example with respect to the new beauty for women of tomorrow. A woman can be physically strong and beautiful at the same time. All depends of how many muscular mass is the goal for each athlete.



As you can see, this is a controversial subject because nowadays, Female Muscle still has many opponents and a lot of prejudices, but on the other hand there are many people with desires of showing their support to these iron warriors, so we invite you to express your opinion about this subject because each person has a different focus and this is your space to show your perspectives.






As in previous times, Female Muscle is a great passion that deserves to be followed so close. Any opinion you have for this topic, you can write to the next e-mail address femalemusclefanforever@gmail.com. See you next time Female Muscle Fans.

Photographies



























The years do not pass by Laura, she continues to look spectacular as always. She's like good wines, she improves with the passage of time.


































With her long hair, Laura continues to demonstrate that prodigality of sensuality that characterizes her. She has always been a beautiful woman, and every image of her has shown it very clearly.
































Laura's sensuality and beauty are undeniable. Time has not passed through her, she looks beautiful and powerful as only she knows how to look.


































Laura knows that it is very difficult to maintain that powerful figure that has characterized her in her sports career, so discipline in eating and training is essential to generate a health and aesthetic care movement.































Laura's creativity and inspiration is evident in every photograph that has been taken. A powerful woman on and off stage.



















Sensuality has been one of the characteristics that has led Laura to be one of the most beautiful and powerful women in the world of irons. And her genius is put to the test with great force.






























This is the most daring and provocative photo that the Charrua Valkyrie has shown so far. Very well harmonized musculature and beauty have made this woman a bomb of two adjectives perfectly described in a disco song: Love And Desire.
































Laura show us that she is a master in the art of managing sensuality with a lot of power and sweetness that captivate even the most demanding public.



































With an arrangement very similar to the actress of the United States Jayne Mansfield, Laura continues to show that glamor is her specialty. Her precious and angelic face is one of her best attributes to decorate a great photo shoot. Simply sensational.
