Men... Which one do you like?
I was looking online and found this comparison chart. I am curious as to which body type most men prefer. I am actually quite surprised by some of the answers I've heard from my guy friends..
I personally like 25% on myself

Ladies... I found this one as well. 4% personally frightens me.

Probably a pretty well documented phenomenon at this point that men like women's curves at lot more than women do.0 -
25% is perfect0

FYI For the men, 3-5% is on stage competition lean; not everyday. My husband was 3% for his bodybuilding show and looked amazing but I actually prefer him in his bulking state.
For the women, IDGAF what other men prefer.0 -

Yup, I'm that guy.0 -

Somewhere from 25 to 40% would be ideal for my own body. I would be most attracted to the same range, though I am capable of being attracted to women of all shapes and sizes.
I very rarely find men to be attractive, but when I have I believe they are probably in the 20-30% range.

For females: 20 - 25%0

For women I can objectively say 25-30% and Men 15-20% Right now I'm a 35% and would love to be in the high 20s0

I'd say off with their heads, but that already happened XD

Whichever of them are kind enough to let me touch them and arent boring and stupid.0

Anywhere from the 10-35 mark on this picture, but obviously each body is different. Some women carry 35 really well and some do not.
Either way, a smart, witty woman who likes to laugh, who is 35% is much sexier than a 20% idiot who is holier than thou.0 -
as a woman I am in the 25% right now and trying to get to the 20-22%....that's where I'd like to be......as far as what I'm attracted to in a guy, it's the 10-12%....the 15% isn't bad either......0

I am a 35% guy and I am pretty ok, IMO.0

Love it! Me too.. my ex-boyfriends ranged from 10-30, but they all made me laugh0
