  • eh, there is a fine line here....

    like muscles/definition, but not what I call a "muscle-head". (think no visible neck)

    Like if you can't walk or put your arms down by your side, you have over done it, in my book. I am a fan of big guns though.....:smile:

    natural look for sure.. Muscles are a turn-off I like to lay my head on a soft belly and not a rock hard stomach

    either.

    and i continue to lower my standards as the years go by...

    I agree. By the time I was 35, all I wanted was a chubby obedient one...

    *LMAO* I'm 34... five more years of this and I may not even require a partner with a penis.

    LOL, come on now...I barely know you...other than reading your posts of course, but if that's you in your avatar, with your quick wit, straight up intelligence (my girlfriend is an accountant as well), and what clearly is a good heart...you've got to have no lack of options!

    Or are all men nowadays truly intimidated by real women?

    I prefer natural and defined. Bulky muscle, not my thing. Thats just me. We're all different.

    same here.

    Yes, that is me *LOL* I have posted a recent dating story... as well as an ex-boyfriend story. I sincerely have no luck in meeting anyone with long term potential since my divorce :sad:

    I like the body that looks like it was built on a soccer field or a track or on a surf board, NOT in gym. You can tell when a guy is an athlete and his body was sculpted from action not repetition. Of course they spend time in the gym, but that's not all they do.

    This. There's a secondary reason I'm a soccer junkie... THE BODIES! Wow. A fellow female soccer fan once called soccer "porn for women" :blushing: Aaanyway, ok now that I'm done blushing... I don't want overly muscular. Toned is my style. Nice abs are a plus, but not absolutely necessary.

    I like men with your exact arms...perfect! My hubby has a little pouch of cushion for a belly and I love it - it's cuddly...however, if he had a solid stomach area, I would probably like that just as much. But arms and a bigger/solid chest are a total turn on...no moobs!!!!!!! And a little hair on that chest please!!

    I passed by this topic a dozen times thinking it was a TOM thread. :laugh:

    I prefer natural muscles. :smokin:

    For me the more natural look would be toned with some definition, Body Builder would be the guys on stage with muscles that would scare small children and veins bulging out everywhere that is just to much.

    But...where's the middle ground? That's a pretty huge range!

    For me...I like my build. It's not perfect, I need less bodyfat, but I only want to be a little bigger. 5-10lbs of muscle will be nice...and about 5-7% less bodyfat.

    I suppose that is why I'm curious. I'm happily attached, but its interesting to apply this stuff to yourself lol.




    Sorry Cris, I'm not trying to be improper or forward..but you have the ideal body in my opinion..and the facial hair..we wont go there..LOL

    No question, natural look for me.

    I find huge muscles kinda gross and a turnoff. Also really dislike the veinyness that goes with it. Admittedly, I do stereotype and I equate musclebound men with the jerkoff jocks in high school who tried to make up for a lack of brains by lifting weights.now, if I happened to meet someone who otherwise was an incredible person but with lots of muscle, I could get over it. But on first impression, so not my type.

    Von, you're a sweetheart =D. A compliment like that is not improper or forward...it's a compliment...and appreciated with the spirit in which it was given.

    Natural is nice, I don't like the whole crazy muscles on muscles on muscles thing. I like a guy who can haul me around and pick me up, he doesn't need to look like Arnold in his prime, in fact that would make me nervous. I'm a woman, I already know that if things go terrible south I won't be able to "defend" myself, I don't need him to look like he does 'roids to remind me.

    I would prefer an almost hard body myself. Not complete body builder status, but not complete dough, either.

    LOL. Most women think so differently than men =D. The thing I keep seeing in womens posts...is huge, broad generaliztions!

    'Not complete body builder, not complete dough.'

    Well, that's only 2/3 of the entire male population or so lol =D.

    Guys are like 'Curvy', or 'Athletic'., or 'With some cushion' lol.

    Not poking fun at you by the way...just pointing out a trend. I even put pictures up, which were mostly ignored (except by women that also put their own pictures).

    Men and women really do think totally differently lol.

    ewww.... what the heck movie is that from? *LOL*

    Reign of Fire lol.

    And eww on the body type? Or eww on the tattoos, and blood? =p

    Him in Reign of Fire is f#cking HOT. But that whole movie is based on a survival situation where a woman's primal most base instinct is to seek out a man for protection. You don't want him too young, he'll likely be too inexperienced, you don't want him too old because soon enough his experience won't outweigh a younger man's strength. That build, somewhere between the ages of 33-42, with some serious scars and that whole Alpha-male/Natural-leader/"Man's-man" type (yeah, THAT was a whole other thread entirely) is enough to make me ovulate on demand like a bunny.

    Facial hair... his there? Meh... I can take it or leave it, chalk it up purely to the storyline and need to effect the character. My hubby blondes out real nice every summer but grows a nearly black full 2 o'clock shadow like a hockey player (who by the way are scientifically proven to have the highest testosterone levels of any type of athlete). I like how facial hair looks, but it's a catch-22 with my dislike of how it feels in certain places ;) But I dislike when a man *needs* a goatee or other facial hair to create the illusion of a strong masculine chin where there isn't one. It's a bit like the trickery a guy must feel when he finds out that drool-worthy cleavage he's been admiring all night was the trickery of an awesome push-up bra with a sport bra layered over it and "chicken cutlet" enhancers under it all, KWIM?
