Do chicks dig your muscles or is it that one is more confident while bein’ bigger? G-Dawg had mentioned this is another thread and i was wondering what you all had to say. From personal exp. I can tell you that it has made me more confident with 30 more pounds of muscles on my body, but also girls i haven’t seen in a while tell me that im lookin’ good or whatever. So which one do y’all (I’m not a hick) think it is?
Both, but moreso the confidence.
Cash works better than anything.
Jared’s right, cash is king, but confidence and some broad shoulders seems to help a little too.
It’s the confidence. I know plenty of guys that don’t even know what a gym is but get tons of chicks because they just excude confidence.
The muscles can be an inital attraction but you better have something else to offer.
Depends of course what my plans are for the man in question. ;o)
Brains + Big Muscles + Self Confidence + Sense of Humor = Dream Man
Big Muscles + 0 = One night stand. :o)

Jared NFS!!!
Large genetalia doesn’t help, let me tell you. Cash can do it, but being handy and being able to shed a few tears while watching a Hallmark special seems to help me.
Jared always seems to have the great one liner answers…
CGB - you have a point about the genetalia. They’re generally scared of anything too big.

Here’s what attracted me to Ko:
- He treated me with respect.
- He was (is) witty.
- He drank (and still drinks) beer.
- Had (has) a good build.
- Very athletic
- Didn’t treat me like shit.
- HAD (has) a brain and knows how to use it.
- Knows how to use his hands.
Here’s what has kept Ko and I together:
- All of the above and…
- He tells me WHAT IS ON HIS MIND and NOT what I want to hear.
- He’s still my best friend
- STILL the best looking guy I’ve known and have seen.
Those are exactly the qualities that attracted me to Ko as well.
CGB: Don’t shed the tears dude, a quote from Dennis Miller sums up exactly what happens when you cry in front of your chick.
" I cried in front of my wife once, and she thought it was sweet for about 2 minutes, then she thought, Why the fuck did I marry this hampster".
I was always O.K. with women (a few girlfriends, a few one nighters, but not a “playa” by far). But then I saw that dumb movie the Tao of Steve and those suggestions really work! I’ve gotten much more attention/action recently and I attribute it to that, seriously. it goes like this: Part I, First time you meet a girl (make it a short intro): 1) Don’t act like you have any interest in sleeping with her. 2) Says something witty or display a talent you have. 3) Get the hell out of there (leave her wanting more). Part II, Then, next time you meet her, just say Hi, give her a big smile and just be yourself. Have a short (5-10 min.) conversation and at the end ask if you can call her. This may come off as too simple for some, or contrived for others, but it works BIG time. Sometimes you can just skip part one, but if it’s a girl that you really want to get with it definitely helps. And if this doesn’t work you can always go for the tried and true – Money gets the honey.
My first post should have been in the “hooking up” thread, my mistake.
I have never met a girl who cared whatsoever that I have a muscular physique.
And lifting hasn’t raised my confidence.
There was once a good article on a similar subject, like people who hated others guts at hig school (15-18) and, lo and behold, 10 years later, something had popped out of the body (muscle, definition, implants, better care, etc.), and now they`re attracted to each other and/or together.
A good part of the article was resumed this way: whether it was steroids or work, the expression of certain traits (muscle, buns, whatever) guaranteed the other sex that the individual was fit/had what it takes.
In short, you flaunt what you have, and time allowed you to let it emerge. And it changed attractions. Yet, 10 years back no attraction existed.
Duh! The way I see it, the optic nerve still rules big time for attraction. Character spells a good part on how long it stays that way.
Depends on what you want, obviously…
Jeff that is because you have no muscles. =) just kidding sir.

“8) Knows how to use his hands. ;-)”
Dude, you’re worrying me. And…you stay away from my man!
More props for “The Tao of Steve.” That movie was spot on – and, it drives its point home even better given that the “pimp” of the movie is a fat slob with no money.
That said, attracting a woman’s glance is related somewhat to money – you have to be able to dress as if you’re employed, and not at Micky D’s either (this is obviously for meeting at a party or somewhere other than a gym). And a broad set of shoulders and a healthy smile are winners too. Once she’s attracted, you just have to avoid talking yourself out of the game (especially by making them think you want them too much or don’t have much else going on).
I have to admit “The tao of Steve” approach is the way I operate.
