Girls (and guys?) If you see a guy that has big arms and you can tell he worksout do you presume he gets lots of girls and has no problem with the ladies? I ask this because from my perspective it is true.

Yup. Its just my assumption. If I see a muscular guys I figure he has no problem with ladies
ETA: I think it is because I find guys who workout attractive, so all girls must! Haha that is how it goes on in my head anyway xD0 -
It depends on what the rest of him looks like & how he sounds when he opens his mouth. Hope you wanted honesty.

Agreed.It depends on what the rest of him looks like & how he sounds when he opens his mouth. Hope you wanted honesty.0 -
Hrmmm... It does depend on his face as well.
And then, god forbid, he open his mouth...0 -
I second your thoughts!! If they are total douches when they start to speak...fuhgeddahboutit!0
-
Hell no, a lot of guys in the gym are there due to their self image issues. However...they're in the right place.
(Oh u mirin' my eloquent use of the there's.)0 -
I don't generally assess a man's ability to "get lots of girls"..... Just not something I think of. I might think, "He's hot. Nice arms. I'd do him." but that's about it.0

Not really, no. Round here, a guy with big arms = farmer, and they don't tend to have that much luck with girls.
Where I live a big wallet is more likely to get you attention.0 -
i honestly don't care how ripped a guy is. my boyfriend works out all the time and takes so many supplements(which can't be that good on the body when taken in these amounts), and i wish he'd be a little easier on his self. i'd love him the same if he were fat. when i see a guy that looks like ronnie or the situation from jersey shore, it's kind of a turn off to be honest.0
-
HA! I never do. I think, "Wow they work out and care about themselves." but that is IT.
The assumption of lady attraction comes more from their face and what they say. If it's garbage the only thing I can think of is they are able to pick up drunk chicks and not much beyond that.0 -
Nothing turns me off more than a guy that's stupid. But yeah, if he's just standing there being sexy then I assume he doesn't have trouble (even if he is stupid he probably still scores a lot)0
-
I'm not going to lie, I have a weakness for big arms and beefy chests. That being said, just because someone is beautiful to look at I don't think it automatically follows that they will have a easy time getting dates.
Well, maybe picking up chicks will be easier, but keeping them? That depends entirely on personality and character. It's been said, Beauty will open the door, but it takes more than a pretty face to keep it open.
Depending upon the way this hot dude carries himself, I may assume the exact opposite about him. We've all met the guy who struts about like a banty rooster and loves himself more than anything in the world. And that is unbelievably transparent and unattractive.
Try switching the perspective. What about the gorgeous chick with the lousy personality? Few men I've met would want to be with a *****y woman just because she's pretty. I think the same is true for women.0 -
Not really, but maybe that is because I don't like muscly guys. Toned, yes but built, yuck!0
-
I should also add, I have never been attracted to a muscly man. I like tall thin men, and people who make me laugh, and laugh at me in return.0
-
Amen!!! Please tell me that I'm not the only women in the world that thinks that a six-pack looks like the underbelly of a crab!! Yuck. I can appreciate the effort, but definitely not my thing.0
-
well, before I gained this weight I was dating a guy who worked out daily and had HUGE arms . . . awesome . . . the guy I am with now has big arms and yea it's a really good attribute . . . without going into detail . . .0
-
It depends on what the rest of him looks like & how he sounds when he opens his mouth. Hope you wanted honesty.
It also depends on his manners, I have been out with this guy who had no table manners at all. He looked great, talked great, just never chewed with his mouth closed, burped, kept reaching for food off my plate. I never talked to him again!0 -
The "ability to get a lot of girls" was never all that appealing to me. The ability to keep this one particular girl interested... that's all I cared about. And that had little to do with his arm size.0
-
Most guys who have great arm muscles have no leg tone whatsoever. I just assume they're obsessed by their appearance and that they don't own a full length mirror....seriously, why would you bulk out your biceps and ignore every other muscle?0

I am taking notes here, oh wait I am married LOLOL0

The important thing to remember is that attitude is a million times more important than muscle definition. I couldn't care less if a man has obvious muscles or not, but I wouldn't look twice at a man who acts like he loves himself.0 -
some of the replies are down right hilarious!0

^^^ This.0 -
I start making assumptions once I talk to him. If he's a smooth talker while seeming harmless (you know how you sense some guys are players, if they're too smooth?), I'm more likely to think he doesn't have a problem with the ladies. :laugh:
Anyone watch Keys to the VIP? That one guy, Cajun, would fit my description.0 -
I don't find big muscles attractive. If I see a guy with huge, burly arms and a beefy chest, it's a turn-off to me. Now... swimmers and soccer players... that's a different story. I think a guy with a good personality can get the girl, regardless of his physique. I don't automatically assume every muscle-man is scoring with the ladies. Most of them are probably too busy working on their pecs! haha0
-
If I saw a guy at the gym that was extremely fit, yes I'd assume he's getting a lot of girls which would most likely mean I'd never talk to him because I'd never have a shot.
Example, two of the trainers at my gym are extremely fit and good looking. I do think they get a lot of girls. I don't know much about their personality other than yelling "COME ON GUYS! 5 MORE SECONDS!" lol but I don't see why they wouldn't have girls around them all the time.
True, they could be complete douche's outside of the gym but that's not what first goes through my mind when I see them.0 -
No. I wouldn't assume that.0

<========[ sorry ladies this ultimate male physique is taken LMAO0
