Which of those male models would you define as “stocky” @GQMagazine?
You’re really not doing much to help with crippling male body image are you?

My calves are bigger than their thighs. None of these guys probably have butts.

I just feel bad for the person who wrote the article cause now it’s getting shat on due to your poor social media promotion image choice. I highly recommend redoing this tweet asap.

Here’s what GQ had to say later.
We appreciate everyone who rightfully dragged us for the choice of photo here. Our bad. The image has been swapped. https://t.co/RuLNq8OpUB

Except …
Look, I know I’m having fun w/ this, and I know sometimes work is hard so no disrespect to the folks trying to fix this, BUT… This is the picture the article was updated with. Still no “stocky” dudes. You can do better, @GQMagazine. Next time, ya should. You’ll actually benefit pic.twitter.com/1ebLKxURPH

You….didn’t do anything. You still haven’t featured any stocky models. Hire some bigger dudes and write a new article.

Hey @GQMagazine, the men of @GothamRugby love modeling swim suits. We have a variety of wonderful bodies on the team! Maybe we can help fix this photo faux pas? #summer #swimwear pic.twitter.com/qFo2H5RAcW
