What Physique Women Like

You cocky? I never would have guessed.

It is a difficult survey to do, it would be hard for the average woman to describe exactly what they like. Most would try to think of someone they know (e.g an actor) with such and such build, and then say if they like it.

Women all differ.

Trends occur through generations. Different things go in and out of vogue. Women used to really like a man with “good hands” whatever THAT means, something about hands that look like they’d be nice to have on them, and apparently, in the small of their back in a nice romantic hug. That was a few generations ago.

Women tend to like a good strong butt, I believe that is generally popular, not some skinny flat butt.

Problem is I think generally they go for the “whole package” which includes style, charisma, nice eyes and a good smile etc…

I thnk the morale is, don’t try to build your body into what you think a women wants, but build it into what you want, and then, you will have the “whole package” and the self-confidence that comes from achieving what YOU want.

And leave it up to the women to drive themselves crazy trying to determine what men want, and trying to achieve it.

Amen brother!
Women don’t like needy guys.
Women like guys who know what they want.

Agreed. Also, as some one else said the size of the wallet is more imortant than anything.

But as far as what the woman prefers. It all comes down to the individual. I had a woman tell me yesterday she likes fat guys. Not obese but chubby.

Ah yes…Chubby Chasers…

Anyways, like my mum says, you don’t choose who you love.

I think that alot of women like the lightbulb look, if it’s over your head.

As for me. I know i’m a sexy bastard, because I am. I’m what girls call “built”. And they ALWAYS say that. But this was like last year in my last year of high school, and I was 5’11" 190-195, with 15%bf. Furthermore i’m one of those dudes built thick. But girls would always say i’m built. Plus I have a nice face prolly like an 8 or 9/10, I put my shit on hotornot and it was 8.8…but I digress.

Alot of girls would not show interest after meeting me. Why? Because I chilled with older girls alot but never hooked up with them, I just made sure not to say anything stupid so I COULD hang out with hot chicks. This lead to me not saying a whole lot around girls. I had confidence, I was a cocky bastard, but I learned to conduct myself this way around girls. Flash forward to today, and I’ve learned something, hot girls or not when i’m drunk and being my cocky beligerant self girls LOVE it, they are even nervous around me, and I was laying HOT chicks. Even really hot 30 year olds (st. Paddys day) and i’m 18. So anyways, I am now like this all the time. I’m also an intelligent guy, so making witty comments about their quirks and so forth in a way were they think about it for a second, and can’t figure out whether to be offened is golden.

SO I’ve come to this conclusion. I’m built, got a good face, am intelligent, cocky, witty, and am interesting (know a little about everything, lived in different countries etc.). And if I want to be REALLY dangerous, I lay on my N.Ireland accent.

There’s kind of a middle ground there in case ya hadn’t noticed, big boy.

As for what kind of physique women like, the answer is so simple that it would never occur to most males because they over-analyze the question. The average woman likes a man with an average physique. (!!)

Most men, especially those involved in the iron game, approach this issue with an enormous perceptual bias. Among those of their own gender, they hold muscle mass and size in extremely high regard. Yet these same men often salivate over relatively plain looking girls with high bodyfat %'s and no external appearance of physical fitness.

Men have much lower standards than women when it comes down to pure physical attractiveness. A typical male walks down the street every day and sees a dozen girls he’d love to bang. That happens to a typical female maybe once a month. Witness the behavior of male posters in the picture forum on this site. Extremely stringent standards of physical fitness are applied to any new male initiates by the male-dominated group, in stark contrast to their female counterparts. Any plain-looking Jane can throw her pic up in the picture forum and be assured of at least one internet jock panting over her virtually and professing his love.

That’s the real secret to this debate. It’s the immense disparity between the standards of physical attractiveness held by each gender.

Amen, man. 100% right on. If you spend real social time talking with women, you’ll find they value intellect, humor, and confidence as much or more than looks or a particular physique. Granted, they may bang the really good-looking guys when they’re young, but they settle down into relationships with guys who are smart, treat them well, and have a strong sense of self. I know some very financially successful women who are with men of all different income levels, but the guys are all good guys and demand the best from themselves.

this is my only chance!

allegedly, reading the psychology journals, when women rate a potential mate, looks only account for 20% of it. The old personality is king. So spend as much time training to be a funny interesting exciting [not nice tho] guy and you’ll get what these other guys have.

took me a long time to figure this out, but at the same time a hot bod won’t hurt.

Ah yes…Chubby Chasers…

This is NOT about getting laid. This is about preferred body shape. Most here have digressed. You must follow your other head to keep free from heartaches,emotional scarring, gifts that keep on giving,abortions, bastards, jading women and leading a hollow existance just to mention a few. I have been married 20 years and my wife is a 10. Men and women tell me she is a ten. I am not. I was very thin. She loves me so I’m happy. I just feel that what men think is ideal is NOT what women think is ideal…

Rob.

PS:I started this with a little sarcasm mixed with satire.

I think in general the older a woman gets the more she appreciates her mans physique. Thats why I stopped dating college girls when I was 18. They’re fun to play with for a week or two but if your looking for something more then wait till they grow up.

one thing Ive noticed is that once they hear the term “chicken legs” they reframe the way they thought about the lightbulb thing.

I think strong legs are good as long as you build a wide back along with them. then again I know alot of girls who love the soccer player thing where you have massive legs/glutes and a mildly built upper body. I know because that was me for a long time(might still be).

Not sure about this. I think the further we get from Brad’s 4-5% bodyfat, we are becoming more undesireable. But tons of muscle without drug use and very low bodyfat, I’m sure when push came to shove, most women would say yes. Regardless what they may say in a conversation where they want to appear that they are about “superficial” things.

Honestly the women Im after find MY body hot. I mean damn in hard enough on my self at constructing the body I want. Hitting my goals, etc… Id be screwed and a mental case if I now had to worry about what other thought of it.

Same goes for women I am looking for and find attractive. Thiers an ass for every seat. Its about searching and finding the right one for you. Not a matter of trying to rework some seat that just doesnt fit feel right.

thought i’d throw my two cents in …

i think guys who are really thick are the most attractive - big traps, arms, chest, back, legs, everything. my guess is because of a man being ‘big,’ it implies a sense of security and protection.

and anyway, it feels good to lay beside someone and feel small …anyway.

that said, i date a 6’2" 170 lb engineer, so who am i to talk? …he’s turning into a t-man though, so he makes me proud.

I am learning that wallet trumps all…or at least the anticipation of a large wallet in the near future. You can do whatever the hell you want to do with your body if you have the finances.

Really.

You’re telling me that women don’t smile when you say, “I’m a doctor”?

Its alot better than me saying, “Yea. I work at a stone yard. But my tan is nice isn’t it?”

Money can’t buy you happiness, but it can buy you a yacht big enough to pull up alongside it.
(David Lee Roth)

my .02 cents.

Are you talking about “average” women (overweight, unconfident, etc) or “superior” women?

Each type can be attracted to different things, you know.

According to recent statistics 65% of Americans are overweight.

So you mean a flabby, potato-chip eating hog is an average woman?

I’d go with the athletic look to be safe

hahahahhahahha.

It seems like we all forget this.

Most women that I see over 25 are pretty bad. Over 35, forget it. One in ten thousand takes care of themselves.

So really, as I get older, I should care less. Because they certainly do.
