It maybe a prejudice but I also tend to consider weight training to be mostly about aesthetics. ... I find the whole bodybuilder, supplement, protein powder, steroid taking culture a bit suspect.
I find it frustrating that weightlifting has this image, not least because weightlifting is not really one thing. The kind of training and results associated with powerlifting will differ from olympic lifting, bodybuilding, or just using cables for rehab, or kettlebells or whatever. I used to powerlift, and it really got my goat when people used to conflate it with bodybuilding.
