Guys - what do you think of girls with fit, lean bodies?

I'm working pretty hard at the gym right now about 5 hours+ a week. I lost all of the fat I needed to (which wasn't much only about 8lbs) and now I'm working on toning up and gaining some muscle.

I just wondered what guys opinions are on women with lean, athletic bodies? All my friends are curvy and said men won't like my body and that real men prefer curves and like some meat. This kind of makes me sad but even if men find me unattractive I won't let it stop me from getting into shape.

I'm posting some pics I found below as examples:

Personally I am happy either way. I "like some meat" in one sense but to be honest all those bodies are very attractive to me. I have varied tastes lol
(Not a guy, but I am bi) I've got body like that. I like girls with body like that. No one's complained yet. Work for your goal, just don't go over the top. :wink: Besides, people's personalities tend to be the big tripping stone. :wink:
Some of those are attractive, some are borderline eating disorder territory

Agreed.
They are all nice tbh. Very lean and would disagree with your friends. Ultimately though, do what makes you happiest but yeah 100% nothing wrong with those bodies lol.
Your friends are probably envious of your physique; what they said about curves and 'meat' is a myth.

Oh dear.
No, I prefer sloppy bodies with excess fat and cellulite all over the place

Not srs

Those women in the pictures have amazing bodies
I think why hello there :sexface:


But then I have a thing for slim/athletic girls, (I'm not into any of this chunky Beyoncé nonsense) :sogood:

Half of those aren't "fit, lean bodies"; they're bodies crafted just to look "good".

This is what a fit, lean body looks like: http://www.girlswithmuscle.com/images/full/964886908.jpg and I love it :biggrin:

Lean yes, fit no. There is a difference.

And that's a problem? Most men these days are fat and weak, as are most of the western population.

Your definition of a healthy, fit body for a woman is warped if women with signs of anabolic use are evident
