    A chick chiming in... only wanted to say that you are pretty tall and @ 110 you will look anorexic. My co-worker is 6' and 120 and looks sickly -not attractive. Don't know if you are trying to achieve the supermodel twig look ?

    Guys will respond more to your attitude. Confidence is very sexy. Confidence though, not stuck up.

    To Billy Connolly...Okay...you made me laugh...I needed that today! I like it..."going to bed with a bicycle." Too funny.


    As far as what shape/size is best. I understand wanting to know...but really...being skinny, curvy, muscular, or toned is attractive on a person if it is what they want to be...not because it is something that someone wants them to be. It is all a matter of perspective...your opinion about yourself is waaaay more important than anybody elses opinion.

    I've seen this girl post a few times and she's gotten a million responses that her goal is way too low for her height and its obviously falling on deaf ears. She's still sticking to her goal of 110. I dont see the point in offering advice on this issue any further.

    As far as men liking you for your body shape...you gotta be happy with yourself first before you can attract the right guy. What you exude is what you attract. Stop worrying about what guys like and learn to love yourself. Confidence is key.

    Hey mfp!

    Thanks for the responses...it's been really interesting!

    I am a dancer, so I automatically have more a muscular build. I've never been a small framed person.

    To be honest, I really don't like my body...which is why I created a mfp account...so I could watch what I eat, log my exercises, and track my progress. Still, even though my I don't LOVE the shape I have, I still try my best to walk confidently in my skin and take care of myself. I love who I am on the inside...and I'm working on loving the person on the outside too!

    I truly was just wondering what guys found attractive in shape.
    I wasn't asking the question so that I could know what they like and try to be exactly like that.
    Some guys like curvy...but I don't. So I try to stick to being thin and lean.
    I was really just curious because it's a question that I've never asked, but always wondered!

    WHEN YOU LOVE THE SKIN YOU ARE IN ..YOU WILL GET LOVED BACK ! Size doesnt matter its the confiendece you carry :)

    Awesome statement, this is like the quote of the day. Even if the woman isn't the most physically attractive woman in the room, confidence and a good attitude really make a woman that much more attractive!

    What?!? Sounds pretty good to me at least. :) But you definitely have to be comfortable with yourself.

    Don't change yourself for a man.

    If you know that YOU will be happiest looking lean, but a bit muscular/toned...then by all means, look how YOU want to look.

    I am interested in a look which requires me to wear contact lenses which give the illusion of appearing like a doll (I'm not wearing them in my photo btw)...some people think it is creepy, but it is what I like. People tell me, "Why would you do that? You already have pretty eyes. You already have colored eyes." As long as you are healthy at 110 lbs, then I don't see anything wrong with being that weight, as long as you feel good about yourself. :smile:

    I joined for a similar reason, so I can relate.
