Both men and women. Is it to do with the way they smile/pose for the camera or something? Seriously, I can almost tell someone is American by the way their neck looks in a photo

Car culture is huge in the United States. Most folks I know drive everywhere even if it’s only a mile away. Add fast food drive-throughs like McDonald’s to this and you get obesity and thick “necks”.

This guy looks like the “if humans evolved to survive high impact car crashes” figure they made a while back.

I remember when I first saw Project Graham. I thought it was so cool and immediately homebrewed it into a human subrace for my D&D campaign.

This guy has literally no neck, not a fat neck. He can’t look over his shoulder because his skill is attached to it.

Her skill skull is attached to her neck, not her shoulders.

Alright, that one took me a second, but I’m keeping it.
