14-20. i need a guy with a bit of muscle. I dont want to be able to break him in half.

em9371

None of the above.

Agreed. But Mr. 14% if I had to choose. This is actually much closer to my ideal:

Nice choice. Rugby players have the best body I think, quite muscly / sporty but chunky rather than overly muscly like the 7% guy.

So I'm curious, are some of you ladies in here gonna tell me that if personalities were the same that you'd choose the 14% or the 20% one over bodybuilders such as:

Greg Plitt




or

Nick Paniagua




or

Josef Rakich





All of these guys are roughly 7-8%.

These guys look great and I can of course tell they are very disciplined, but I'd probably be more attracted to them during "bulking season". That's just my personal preference. I prefer big and muscular over "ripped".

Yep I'd go for the 14% guy over any of these, I can see they work hard to look like that but it's not my thing :-)

Too intimidating. I could never be comfortable with someone like these guys. Even if they were really nice.

14% NO DOUBT! He looks healthy but muscular. I don't like to much muscle. I'm an in-beetween-y.

sarahreischel

nicolabellaa

14% guy most deff=)

Lab2809

Is it just me or does it look like the 25% guy should be switched with the 30% guy?

Jeanne78832

The 14% guy

angelpie36426

10-14% most definitely! 7% is way overboard unless you compete all the time. 10% is my favorite.

For me, yes. I'm not and never have been attracted to bulging veins, hairless male bodies, and grotesque muscles that don't look naturally acquired. Greg Plitt (especially) and the last one look the most natural out of the three to me. The center one--no way. I don't mean to offend anyone, but that's my personal preference.

Personally, my favorite body is a typical swimmer's body. Swoon.

I think my friend Will has the perfect body (he's a lifeguard/swimmer/triathlete)
I just wish he had a straight-on photo I could share. His composition is perfectly balanced, and I think he has an awesome fat to muscle ratio.

BondBomb

If they all had the same personality and all ever equally attracted to me! Going off what makes me all tingly? 14 for sure.
That body is just sexy. I could totally fall asleep with my head on that chest.

I'm not intimidated, I just genuinely prefer 14%s body. These guys look great but for some reason the ripped body type doesn't do it for me.

Ladies,
How much of your choice is biased by your level of fitness? Ignoring maintenance, intimidation etc, do athletic/fit women prefer the 10% athletic bloke and others prefer 14% bloke?
Cheers,

Not sure my choice has too much to do with my own level of fitness... I am around 23% body fat at the moment. But it's definitely between the 10% and 14%... maybe midways... Lol.

Can't believe I'm saying it... but 10% is totally gorgeous... however, he looks like he works out... LOTS. And he does. And that's fine & great. 14% guy has more of a "natural sexy" appeal... like maybe he didn't get ALL those muscles in a gym. Not that it matters where you get them... but I guess even though 10% is ripped and all... 14% looks a little more "real" for lack of better word.

wee_wolfie

Based on this thread I should maybe start hitting on the 7% guys - seems the rest of the ladies are not that interested in them!

moodyfeesh14

I like the 10% guy but I am marrying a 30% who used to be a 14%

A significant part of what drives us in physical evaluation of potential partners is subconscious. From an anthropological/evolutionary standpoint (in line with my vote as well), Mr 14% is the most appealing as a potential mate (more literal sense).

I have to disagree with the general consensus here that intelligence is one of the most important qualities in a mate, though. I've known (too well) too many brilliant @$$holes for that to even make my list. Someone of lower intelligence, but with a heart of gold would make for a better partner (and father) than the reverse.

I feel like I should add that I know a Mr 10% cliche, who fits most women's expectation of being too high maintenance (and fitness obsessed) all too well. He's also highly intelligent (and extremely well-off), but an utter pr1ck. He's an elitist, an emotional cripple, and unbelievably shallow. I KNOW that not all (or even most) of the men of his approximate build would possess these qualities, but I found his example ironic, given that more than a few of you had similar instincts based on appearance alone.

10% with the muscles for me please

georgiarenee

mmmm 14%

DaisyHamilton

14, for sure! I'm not into big, hugely defined muscles.

Nebrie

20% is my ideal man. I like some softness but I'm not opposed to the men with higher % either. Agreed, the men who are muscular with 10 - 14% are swoon worthy. Not something I would chase after though. Just something I would admire from afar. I do not think the man with 7% attractive. I admire his dedication but I do not (at least in that picture) find him sexually appealing.

On the top, 14-20%....on the bottom the one with muscles. That's just a visual preference but I don't mind a little pudge.

I'm not skinny by any means so I do not expect someone to be all toned and with no fat....I actually prefer someone to have a great personality and be a good boyfriend/husband/father or whatever he may be at the time, than looking soley at looks. My fiance is between the 14-20%...more on the 20% side but he makes me laugh and treats me amazing....I just need to get in shape for when we decide on a date!!!
