Plenty of times, mostly from fags in university who felt that you could only be strong or smart but never both, and since they were fat shits then they must be intelligent to balance it

In American English (the dominant dialect of English), glasses are called glasses and lenses refer to contacts.

All the fucking time.

People are legitimately shocked when find out how much I know about classical philosophy, proto-indo European culture, and pre-Christian Hellenic & Nordic religion.

Try getting in the concentration of biomolecular engineering so it's more applicable to fitness.

(Instead of EE, take Biomaterials. Instead of P.Chem, take P.Biochem)

Yeah I deal with it all the time. Here is a list of things that baffle people when they find out
>I get a 3.99 GPA (fucking A-)
>I listen to indie folk music
>I have a girlfriend and have been in a relationship for almost 3 years, never been into hooking up
>I'm very good with babies
>I love photography
>I have a tumblr (Americana/travel aesthetic)

It's a lose lose situation if you are both fit and have a decent personality.
>Smart normal and interesting people don't like me because they think I am one of those "dumb meat heads
>Fitness community doesn't like me because I don't have an "alpha male manly man" personality like them

Basically everyone you meet always seems to have a chip on their shoulder around you, and always tries to "stand up to you" for no reason.

Such is life.

In American English, calling contacts "lenses" instead of "contacts" is being purposely obtuse.

People are usually surprised when j tell them I work in IT. Wether it's weird to see a muscly nerd or they assume I'm too stupid to do it I'm not sure.

That's what you get for being a sheep in wolfs clothing. If you project the appearance of an alpha but are actually beta as fuck of course people are going to treat you all kinds of weird

Currently in grad school.
The stereotyping isn't serious, but there's definitely some bantz revolving around the fact that I lift.

High school senior here. Inb4 underagefag, I'm 18

I have a near perfect score on the SAT (2390), a 4.0 GPA and take 6 AP classes (took 7 last year). My bench, squat, and DL maxes are 270, 365, and 405, respectively.

Normal people treat me fine. I haven't noticed any normal people instantly assuming I'm a dumb meathead just because I'm swole.

A lot of the other "smart" kids in my school seem to hate me. I say "smart" because these kids take a lot of AP classes and call themselves intellectuals but they spend all day studying for their classes. They also don't have good SAT scores. These kids also show no deference to their teachers or other people in general because they think they are smarter than everyone else - they're shitty people all around.

I know, though, that these people are bitter betas so it doesn't bother me much. Anyone who's actually smart understands the value of lifting and knows how important it is to both your own health and social life.

So blog post aside, it doesn't usually give me a problem.

I sell glasses
most places will let you buy lenses without prescription. Bulk of cost is lenses rather than frame, so just find some place that has nice enough frames and ask for bog standard plano lenses.

Wow that part about other students is indeed accurate, I'm a senior also, same age. But the difference is that I'm a skinny fat fuck who is too poor to go to normal gym... Were all going to make it right...?

Start getting fit before college or you will kick yourself dude. You don't need to go to a good gym to get fit. You need hard work and discipline. As long as your gym has free weights, find a program like SS and stick to it. If not, find a calisthenics program and stick to it. Meticulously track your macros. If you care about your diet and do whatever routine you can, you will be much better off than if you had done nothing at all.
