Body shape women find most attractive.

[slackajack]

This question is mainly directed at women, but if any guys know the answer, or have an opinion then feel free to go for it.

I know it differs from person to person, but as a general rule, what kind of body do most women like best?

Is it:

A) The huge, rippling, and extremely toned type? (The kind you see in competitions wearing very little).

B) The big, but not quite as toned body? (Very solid guys, but not with as much tone).

C) The just regular toned body? (A "beach-body").


A)
B)
C)

Don't judge on how attractive the people in the photos are. These are just examples of the rough body type I'm talking about.

Lol Dude,
are you trying to see which gets the most points so you can build your figure to that?

[WCC]

WOMEN would probably go for B.

GIRLS would probably go for C.

high-school aged girls don't know what they want and would prefer a 'metrosexual' pretty boy because they'd find him charming (i know because i have a sister and a stepsister).
a woman would probably prefer a more muscular body. they know more what they want and they'd be more inclined to go for a more masculine man with a muscular body.

Pretty much my thoughts, but I was hoping a couple of girls/women would answer to confirm it.

I guess this leads to my next question: why do guys work towards A)? In my opinion (I hope not to offend anyone here) it looks kind of funny. The dehydrated muscles and the really solid tan.

i don't know. they think it looks good on them. it's all a matter of opinion - some people find Ronnie Coleman aesthetic, others find him freakish.
personally i think the IFBB pros look overdeveloped, but some would disagree.

i personally want to look like Stan McQuay:

i think he has just the right amount of muscular development - he's not hideously massive, but you can tell he's a bodybuilder. bigger than most of the boxer/swimmer body types that most people on here seem to want.

[slackajack]

Yeah, Mate. I think we're on the same wave-length.

Girls that I've come across prefer the "fit" body-type. Muscular, but toned. Not big by any means, moreso lean would be a good word to describe it. Every girl that I've dated has been worried that since I work out so much I'm going to get "too big" and lose that fit body-type (the body-type that everyone on these forums loves to hate).

that's correct. girls & women normally like the "brad pitt"-type of body (lean and toned) most.
many women told me that they find guys with huge "muscle-rocks" disgusting.

so what do they want?? a guy who doesnt lift but does jus cardio....hmmmm too easy but i dont want to look puny. so muscles is my opinion but not too much just the perfect amount.

[sbrown_c4l]

really depends on the women, from what I normally see, really really really really skinny model type chicks go for B (possibly because of the protection element) a lot chicks like the ***goty ass abercrombie model beach body bitch

[kronz]

Mate, you SUCK at posting pictures...

That's the worst "Beach body" ive ever seen.

The 2nd pic is just ridiculously small, he has a ****ign shirt on...

[PAmos wannabe]

lol

p.s. for once i actually agree with WCC!!!!

[bbking]

Yeah they aint the best, but if you think you can do better, why don't you post so better pics.

Girls don't like #1, I'll tell you that.

[smoothdster]

listen man...obviously, this isn't a datin forum, but you seem to be looking to attract women. Don't go around ASKING and LOOKING for what THEY want. Women WANT a guy who knows what HE wants. Most women won't admit/don't know this, but really...you can't let them phase you.

Your body has like less than 10% interest in how many women will date you.


One night stands? That's a different story.

i couldnt agree with you more. personally i don't want to be huge like ronnie style ( not that i ever would ov course lol) but i would like to have the psyique of Stan Mcquay he is in excellent shape and as said above not too more nor too less muscle.

Personal preference.

Most girls like "athletic" bodies... meaning you have some muscle but you arent huge, and you are somewhat cut.

I think that fits me, but I want to get bigger, I don't need to be like mr olypia, but I would like to get more mass none the less.

So I would have to agree with this post.

[whizkyy]

You put B with around 10-12& bf and then C both with tops of at girls....any girl will choose body B. No matter what they say. It's natural instinct
