Guys: Girls next door or supermodels?

Poll

Which kinds of girls do you prefer?

According to a few of my male friends, guys prefer girls with more of a "girl next door" look than a "supermodellish" look, as it makes them look more down to earth (regardless of how well you know either of them, I don't mean literal girls next door or close female friends).

Is this true or complete garbage? Which do you like more? I've always thought a very slim figure/big eyes/bee-stung lips/as close to apparent "perfection" as possible were considered ideal by men, but apparently guys prefer girls who look "a bit more real."

We were arguing about Sabine Lisicki or Anna Kournikova, vs the Victoria's Secret models (like Erin Heatherton or Rosie Huntington-Whiteley) specifically, in case anyone was wondering. Surely most men would prefer the VS lot? Or can you have too much of a good thing? (I thought they just preferred the first two being athletes, but apparently they have more appealing faces too).

"Girls next door":

I really like Lisicki (those thighs :sexface: ). Yeah, I like girls next door type of girls. They are also more attainable than those who look like models.

Girls next door of course. I prefer real over fantasy. And more importantly, girls next door are real, whereas supermodels seems fake.
Girls next door. Supermodels are too skinny.

There's virtually no difference between the girls in the OP. All beautiful.

Interesting :beard: Just to clarify, I meant girls with different "looks", I don't mean literal girls next door (i.e. close friends) versus actual supermodels :smile:

So what is it that's so much better about the "girl next door" look? Just the not being very slim thing? Or is it their features too? :confused:
