From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Thanks for the move
I wasn't sure on the exact title, and there was a lot of information I was missing out on. I appreciate the contributions you guys have made. Tyciol 07:41, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Point of view on masculine features
- She has very masculine qualities. This may lead some to suspect that she is supplementing testosterone or some other form of anabolic steroid in an attempt to increase her muscular gains and maintenance. It is possible that she is just naturally higher in these levels, which may have stimulated her interest in bodybuildering.
I was curious if there was any way we could incorporate the issue into the article without it being NPOV? It is a common thing among women bodybuilders, the labelling of overmasculinity and such things. I'm sure it must be represented in some other wiki that could be linked to...

- Sounds like a great topic for a blog, but not here. The article should stick to facts about Supersize She. fbb_fan 02:40, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
- No, it's a relevant issue, especially since in the actual documentary they do discuss women who juice if I remember... it has been several months. I'm sure the issue has a home somewhere on Wiki, like female bodybuilding, or FtM stuff. Tyciol 21:52, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
- The article should only have factual information about the program - not your own speculation. The statement "she has very masculine qualities" is your own subjective opinion about Joanna, not an informative statement about Supersize She - and as such, it does not belong in the article. Wikipedia is attempting to be an encyclopedia, not a discussion forum. fbb_fan 02:57, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
- Indeed. Dan100 (Talk) 21:19, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
- Alright, image is interpretive, it's just certain aspects of her face. What is pretty obvious is her voice though. It was very low-pitched. On average, men, having higher testosterone than women, have deeper voices, which is rather well known and accepted. Can this be mentioned? Female bodybuilders, like MtF, do sometimes take testosterone. Tyciol 19:43, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
