Question for women

wee_wolfie

Ideally a man like Arnie in the Conan days, but failing that I would rather a chap that is huge and bulky than a dude that is more slender but has loads of definition. I am assuming bulk to mean muscle and not fat btw. Fat does not float my boat!

My man has broad shoulders and muscular arms, chest and legs. (and a really really great butt) I honestly don't care about a 6 pack. It looks great w/a shirt off but to be honest I like to have a strong back to support me and strong arms to surround me. He is more "bulky" but not chubby. That's perfect for me!

As long as he's got strong arms and no gut, I'm happy

i think you can look good either way. my bf is personally bulkey>lean. but he's not tall, and has square hips, so its befitting. not to mention all his muscle build is either natural, or from martial arts.

I prefer a man who is bulky.

Really? Personally I find both those men too small. And I don't mean muscular wise, I mean build wise.

THIS is a man for me!! .



I like a guy with muscles but mostly I like a man who is just built like a brick **** house. Broad chest, broad shoulders...tall. YES YES YES.

My bf now has a 46" chest and he doesn't even work out. I just want to lay on it all day hehe

On a magazine cover I like it more cut/less bulky.

For a guy that I'm with I would be really happy that the guy is healthy and cares about himself!

a tad bit more bulky & slightly less cut makes for a good cuddle..strong but soft at the same time. I wanna see some nice muscles, just not too many.

What's wrong with bulky and lean?

We body builders seem to have a bad rep - why is this?

The reason I say is I never had as much attention from women til I got bigger. Is it always a case of what this thread goes or does looks and personality go hand in hand?

Personally I don't mind and it's really going to vary from person to person.. Like some men prefer women with bigger boobs, smaller boobs, big booty, skinner/larger/curvier it just comes down to personal taste. I think whatever works for you and makes you happy and healthy is great. I don't think it's right of people to make fun of bodybuilders for wanting to be physically stronger/fitter etc. There is a stereotype however, that guys who spend loads of times working on their muscles are dumb/meatheads. Of course, a stereotype is a stereotype and not applicable to every guy.

Physically, I actually prefer sort of chubby guys, not too big, just a bit on the chubby side and taller than me. I also go for guys who are smart and funny and personality trumps looks a million times over for me.

Does anyone know any Body Builders (BBers) that are dumb meat heads or is that just a pure stereotype? Most BBers I know are as soft as you like and chatty and friendly giants. Just sayin' :happy:

Hmm.. I would say ..less bulk more cut.. Nice definition ... But what's inside counts the most for me

I prefer more bulky, less cut

I have to agree with this

As I already said, Arnie a la Conan is the ideal man. In the real world though, such gents are in short supply and you need to be a pretty stunning female to attract one. Also, I believe there is a perception that body builders live in the gym and have no time for outside pursuits. It takes a lot of work to get that big(assuming they are not ultilising chemical help), so it is like a vocation. The strict diet and exercise regime probably wouldn't allow for going out on the rip on the weekend, although this may be a misconception. Not to mention, how would you meet such a man? I certainly wouldn't approach one in the free weights area, eventhough I have really wanted to ask some questions about form and isolation exercises - imagine how much more awkward it would be to try and chat them up!

thanks to everyone for the comments. I was surprised to see how long this thread went

My perfect body is actually where you're at in your pic, too many muscles really put me off! though, any less muscle/tone doesnt bother me, just as long as their healthy

I love all men! Just got out of a relationship with a body builder type, but, I like the cut look too as long as they're not too skinny.

Most women misunderstand what stunning is. A good body only goes so far...
