    Why is it that whenever someone says that another person has told them that defined muscles on woman are not sexy, people automatically assume that that person is jealous?! :laugh: Could it not be that she was merely expressing an opinion? Is everyone to be judged negatively because they don't happen to agree with someone? Or is it that we feel we have to give platitudes to others to make them feel good? :ohwell:

    I have a girlfriend who is a champion bodybuilder, and while she is one of the loveliest, fittest and healthiest people I know, I don't think she looks at all sexy, especially when she's pumped! Before she became a bodybuilder, and was 'just' an athletic woman who swam the English channel on a regular basis(!), I thought she had a much sexier bod! However, just because I don't find her body aesthetically pleasing now, it in no way means I am jealous of her, nor am I dissatisfied with my own body!

    FTR, I *do* think a toned and defined body can be sexy, on men *and* women. But I also think that women like Immodesty Blaize have THE most awesome and sexy figures! When it comes down to it however, for me, if the personality isn't there, it really doesn't matter how fit-looking someone is, they're not going to make my personal sexy grade! :laugh:

    It's one thing to have an opinion. But would you *tell* your friend that she wasn't sexy, just out of the blue without her asking you? Probably not. It's when you voice a negative opinion to someone about the way they look that you start to look like a green-eyed monster. Not *you* you. General "you."

    I absolutely agree with you; it would indeed then sound as though she was jealous/felt bad about herself but the OP didn't say the other person said *she* wasn't sexy, she said that "muscles on *women* were not sexy"!

    Muscle is sexy!! Health is sexy!! Looking after you body is sexy!!! Well thats just my opinion! I get told its gross all the time by my friends (girls) But the guys seem to love it...maybe girls show just a little jealously??? Easier to say they dont like, than to put i the hard work to look like it!!

    I think that actually identifies the real issue...guys don't have a problem, girls just "say" they don't like it...

    I'm kinda thinking that your friend was trying to cut you down a little bit to make herself feel better, and that's not what friends do. But that's just my opinion.

    I think muscles are sexy. I think curves are sexy....

    +1
    +1 +1

    This "debate" drives me insane. Men don't sit around and cut each other up like this. Can you imagine?

    "He dude, do you think this round beer belly is too girly?"
    or
    "I don't know man, I think your *kitten* is lookin' sort round of like Beyonce's. I prefer more of a Seth Rogen look"

    +1 definitely! This seems to be hitting the issue dead on!

    I actually agree. I'm not saying muscle definition is unattractive, but I don't want it. But to each their own. If they are happy with their body, that's all that matters :)

    LOL, talking about guys finding that sexy. My husband thinks, Madonna and Sarah Jessica Parker are gross. And they are very defined. I personally like Jilian Michaels muscles the best.

    I think your friend might be a little jealous. Muscle definition and being toned is totally sexy on women. Fit and healthy!

    I think it is... esp because it makes my legs and arms jiggle less!

    I also like when doing my dumbbell routine in my gyms studio, and there are girls stretching behind me, staring at me because I'm a girl who's lifting weights... makes me feel pretty good about myself.
