Everyone knows that anabolic steroids are often blamed. If an athlete or a bodybuilder takes steroids and/or other doping products, he/she is claimed to be a cheater. Journalists report about such athletes as about those who have destroyed their reputation. Anti-doping agencies put incredible efforts and spend money in other to determine whether certain athletes have doped. Even the government wastes taxpayers’ funds and time in order to prove that several sportspersons have taken steroids and/or doping products. It is stated that those that dope take unfair advantages in sports.
Many articles describe the fight against steroids. But let see whether arguments against application of steroids are strong enough to prove that it is disgraceful to apply them.
It is stated that steroid-using sportspersons serve as a bad example for children and young individuals. It is known that youth sees a lot of sports stars that administer steroids and other related medicines. As a result, young people desire to look and be as strong, as these famous sports figures. Furthermore, it is widely discussed about health risks linked with steroids. But if you are attentive, you can understand that these arguments are weak because they are full of hypocrisy.
Let examine the most frequently used arguments against application of anabolic steroids and/or other related products.
According to the first argument, intake of steroids is closely associated with some potential health risks. Many articles warn about shrunken testicles and enlarged heart that may occur on account of steroid use. However it may be true, let analyze our life. We consume unhealthy food, although we know that it destroys our health. Certain individuals administer antidepressants which are also quite unsafe. We do also other unhealthy things.
According to another argument against steroids, steroid-using athletes take unfair advantages in competitions. They win because they enhance performance with these products. Let see what happens in other areas, for example, in the world of entertainment. Many actors and actresses improve their appearances and performances in order to play certain roles in movies. They also have unfair advantages over others with the help of several surgeries and other things. But they are not sentenced to bans.
While it is confirmed that steroid-using athletes send bad messages to young persons who desire to look like them and follow their examples, nobody notices about the bad example of actors and actresses. Young girls also want to look like those they see in magazines.
While federal agents pursue sportspeople that apply steroids, they have nothing to do with actors and actresses that act like steroid-using athletes.
It is clear that arguments against usage of steroids are very weak. They manifest hypocrisy that reigns in our fake world.
