And Tbh He's Way More Attractive In That Way - Blog Posts
Okay so maybe yall can explain it to me because I’m still new here
So before I watched Star Trek, there seemed to be this ongoing joke about Captain Kirk being a “fatass” like Family Guy, Epic Rap Battles of History and I think even Robot Chicken (don’t quote me on this) made this joke and I don’t get it. Like is Kirk “fat” by 60s standards or does William Shatner just gain weight as the show goes on because you know, he’s fucking human ?
Like I even saw a Reddit post from 2 years ago trying to claim Kirk is “chubby” and “wearing a girdle” and using these photos as reference and he looks like a regular fucking dude so I’m confused. Like he’s not fat and even if he was that’s not a bad thing at all so I don’t get why certain fans have been assholes about this for so fucking long. Like he’s fine. He looks like he’s average weight. And then there’s claims his shirts just make him “look fat” like the green shirt, when he literally looks the same.
I don’t know maybe I’m crazy but Kirk looks absolutely fine and even if he was “fat” that shouldn’t be something to riff on, especially now in 2025 but people still do it.
