Do you consider this body attractive?

I'm sorry, what are you trying to say?(I can't understand it due to the structure.)



Really? What professional rugby player is that muscular? And how many?

But that isn't the case any more, plenty of women don't like the more muscular man. I'll use my original example, more fangirls are attracted to cm punk and cody rhodes than mark henry, john cena and ryback.

Also, the muscular man isn't necessarily healthier, by today's standards of muscle the low body fat can be dangerous, there was a bbc3 documentary showing the health problems of bodybuilders.

Most of the girls that don't like said body type, especially the one's that say they'll feel 'intimidated' are the one's that are actually just scared that a guy with such a physique wouldn't be interested in them in the first place/ they're out of shape / unattractive themselves/ afraid of his level of motivation and dedication due to their lack of both.

Also, lol at the people saying they'll feel intimidated but also want tall guys so they feel protected... Good one.

Lastly, he's clearly tensing. His muscles won't look like that all time.

Trust me, Cody rhodes is still goddam muscular compared to the average guy!

Seriously, you even linked a study yourself that stated that women have 60 to 80% as much lean muscle mass as men pound for pound. Ergo, yes men are naturally more muscular!

This is TSR, the answer will always be no

I wouldnt be scared of a guy with muscles being interested in me at all, cos if im not interested in him than thats that.
I would never get with someone because i thought something like 'guys like him would never usually be interested in me'

Are you trying to say that we're saying this because we feel they wouldnt like us, and that if they did we would suddenly change our opinion?
Cos i wouldnt.

Is that what I wrote? No. But yes, some girls would feel like these guys would not like them. Not sure where you got that second part from.

Whether i am 'out of shape' or 'unattractive' i don't care, as long as i am happy with myself is all that counts. I don't need or want anyone making me feel guilty for being myself.

And as for dedication/motivation, going to the gym/ working out is obviously not the only way to define that.

no
not a fan of muscles at all, personally they make me feel unfit, fat and self conscious about my own body.
I also can't see the hype around spending half your life at the gym.

... Reread what you said ealier.

Of course that's not the only way to define dedication/motivation. However, as I wrote earlier, my post is aimed at girls who say they find that body type intimidating. Even you made a stupid comment about spending their life in the gym, when you clearly know nothing about it.
It's a common insult to describe those that are dedicated about something as obsessed which is what essentially you wrote by saying that.




"They make me feel unfit, fat and self conscious about my own body"

~4hours a week in the gym = half your life... Lol. Have a gold star.

Yeah ^

I see four types of people responding:

1) Guys who respect his body and are possibly aiming for something similar.

2) Guys who are jealous of his body, and don't have the motivation to do anything about their own.

3) Girls who actually dislike that body type.

4) Girls who know they realistically wouldn't stand a chance with a guy like that because he has probably got high standards.

With #2 and #4 making up the majority.

Except it's the girls saying it's unattractive.

You saying girls are jealous of some blokes muscles?

Little teenage girls who've barely been exposed to anything but the skinny scrawny guy lol Not saying as a guy that that guy is attractive, he's too low in fat for my liking, but TSR is the last place to ask for WOMEN'S opinions. I learnt that many years ago. The skinny Indy looking dude fits with the demographic here. But good thing this doesn't reflect the general population. I know it doesn't.

Don't you think the idea that women really prefer muscles is a bit juvenile and fallacious?

Who would get more attention?

or

I know which one I and the majority of females prefer, and it is not the more muscular, because guess what faces, hair and style matter. Stop with this simplistic notion that we all secretly love muscles, you're only trying to convince yourself of that.

One extreme to another. Daniel Craig did alright in Bond. Tom Hardy is a lot bigger and seems popular too. You'd be surprised how many guys lift weights, even the skinnier ones like Brad Pitt.

As for big muscular guys, whether you like them or not they evidently get plenty of women.

Women are attractive to different things but as my example shows more muscles don't make you more attractive. The better face wins every time.



Where's the evidence for that? Look at my example, you think the muscular guy has had more women than the guy who is actually attractive?

Hard to prove. Guys who are muscular tend to look after themselves more so it could be a number of factors. You seem to have a black and white view. Claiming more women like this over this is all just nonsense you've dreamt up; it's just what you prefer. As I said before, TSR is full of young teen girls and you simply haven't been out and about enough in the world. The skinny guy is just what you've been exposed to. You've posted pictures of massive muscular guys. The guy in the OP probably looks pretty normal and good when he's not posing/tensing. Clothes will probably look better on him too-- CK underwear models arent skinny fags with no muscles. Tom Hardy is pretty big by normal standards, well beyond something I'd want, someone better tell him he's doing it wrong

I don't think you understand my point that a good looking face beats muscles every time, and yes the majority of women would prefer the less muscley one in my example. What I'm trying to explain to you is that A) face matters and B) Calvin Klein models are more attractive than bodybuilders proving that more muscle doesn't make you more attractive, nor does it even make you attractive as that is dependent on your face ultimately.

Good face and muscles exist too now you're talking about Bodybuilders. They're huuge. Different topic. The guy in the OP wouldn't look that big if he wasn't tensing.

The notion that they are not SUPPOSED to be muscular is a social/gender construct. Which is different from the fact that men are stronger/have more muscle mass. Who is deciding women aren't supposed to be muscular? Society and gender roles, not biology, women can have a muscular build if they work hard, same with men. Men have to work hard for a build like the OP, you don't get that from not working out and anyone claiming that you do is incredibly misinformed.

Both of those people are muscular and defined, plenty of people are attracted to cena.

No, it's very much biological :') In cave man terms, who looks more likely to be able to defend your offspring, bring you food and pass on good genes to your child, the big muscular guy or the skinny one? Obviously the muscular one, which is why they'd get laid more often.

Men don't ask the same question of women, you just need to look healthy, and yes to a certain degree muscularity is a part of that, just not to the extent that it is for a man. See, not a gender construct.
