What type of 'body' are you attracted to?

I like my women short, slim in the waist, and carrying some junk in the trunk. "Short and Thick" as we say it in Brooklyn.0

I love big, broad guys with a little bit of a baby face - broad shoulders, big hands, nice arms, sweet faces. YES. Thankfully, I caught one for myself.0

I always say I'm an equal opportunity employer. I like to think I focus more on what's inside.
The men I've dated have a wide range of physical characteristics. I've date men from every ethnic background and socio-economic background.
But I do have 2 prejudices.
--First not so much attracted to east indian men... purely on a physical basis.
and
--Second, and I felt this way even when I was heavy, I just have a hard time feeling attracted to someone who is obese.
I don't mind a little pudge, or a bit of beer gut. but once you get to obese the romantic to platonic ratio tips to the other side of the scale.
I've always recognized that it was a double standard, but I haven't found a way to overcome that and it's not fair to the other person to be in a relationship if you don't accept them for who they are.0 -
I like thick guys - broad chested, big shoulders. I like them to be taller than me (I am about 5'5.5''). Some extra weight does not bother me at all. I have no preference for hair or eye color. My hubby is pretty much my ideal =D.0

I still find my husband attractive, I think he's extremely sexy when he's not being self-conscious. But, from a purely aesthetic point of view, my ideal physical body would be someone who was pretty muscular, 6' or taller, dark brown eyes, nice skin, dark hair... well you get the idea. That guy from True Blood is a good example. Alcide? I think that was his name. Omnomnomz.0

My fella!
..... a man has to be taller than me, have a nice *kitten* and be kind and supportive and be able to make me laugh! All of which my fella has in abundance!0 -
Usually long and lean, even when I was heavier.
When I look back, the 2 boyfriends that turned me on sexually the most, were the 6ft, 200lb'ers, lean muscles.
I had 1 bf who was maybe 5'9 and had a nice body with big arms, nice tight abs, even had nice muscular legs. I was attracted to him but not like the lean guys.
My ex husband was 6'4, heavy set guy... he wasn't really fat, maybe more like a football player. Eh.
So I'll take lean long muscles please!0 -
Of course it is personality that matters etc. etc.. but tall and broad (over 6' and 200lbs).. bonus points if your 200lbs is a little more muscle than fat!0

^^this. I like my girls pretty faced too! Can't have a butterface!0 -
Any woman who is pretty to me...
BTW, I do not mean only women who are Barbie Doll pretty...
I am attracted to women of all body types...0 -
No Skinny Minnies. Seeing your rib cage is a definate turn off.
No Frankenboobs. They must be proportional to your body and not obviously "enhanced".
Curves are a must. Hips = Something to hold on to. Need I say more.
Glasses. LOVE a woman in glasses!
Back dimples. I know this one is weird, but I love it when a woman has those dimples on her back just above the belt line.
Not too tall. 5'2" - 5'7" is perfect.0 -

If it's a one-night deal, I can look past that. :laugh:0 -

Who doesn't? ;x0 -
yup.. I'll take some of this pls.
Hell Yeah!!0 -
I don't really have a type. Looking at my soon-to-be ex and the guy who I am currently crushing on, I have known them both for about 20 years. STBex was very tall and thin back in our teens. By the time we finally got married 7 years ago, he had packed on some pounds and was about 80 pounds heavier than he was then. The other is only a little taller than me, and has always been pretty fit. They are complete opposites body type-wise, but I found them both attractive. And strangely enough, they both found me attractive!0

Hmmmmm
I'm attracted to taller men, typically hispanic or white, tattoos and peircings, I dont like superskinny guys ... if you look like I need to feed you some rice and beans its a no go......0 -
for a man, stocky, muscular physique, nice arms, and hands
and women, shorter around my height and size, tight and toned, with curves0 -

yes!!! back dimples on a girl are hot!!0 -
tall boys, good smile with that little smirk, get's me every time :blushing:0

It definitely depends on how they treat me but I love me some muscles. I love arms ... if a guy flexes for me it makes me melt... I want a strong man. Someone to lift me up!
I think I should stop... I'm daydreaming now!0 -
I am a firm believer of 'Don't judge a book by it's cover' but I wanted to get some of your views as well.
It depends on what you're judging. If you're assessing whether someone else values a healthy lifestyle and being trim it's fair to assume that an obese person doesn't unless he says so and you actually see him eating healthily and exercising.
I like boyishly handsome, trim men.0 -
I like my men to be skinny like a string bean.
Figure 1
sexy, I know.
that's one lucky string bean lol0 -

thats kinda shallow.
Obese men can be every bit as shallow as anyone else. I went out with one who only went out with cute, thin women. But he refused to make any accommodation for my eating habits, such as buying some skim milk along with his whole milk at the market. And he was loaded.0 -
I married a body type I have never dated. LOL My husband is 5'11" and 140 lbs wet. He is mostly muscle with a little squishy in the tummy area. I always had dated men who weighed closer to 170-180 and well built. However, I find my husband to be the most attractive man I know. But that also comes with his personality. He has the brightest blue eyes I have ever seen and he looks at me like I'm everything. So that works for me. His had always dated blonde girls, small breasts, and small behinds before me . . . his dad said "you finally found a woman instead of a girl to date." I think that also had something to do with he used to date a lot of . . . air heads. . . I am a challenge for him so apparently that's appealing. I am curvy, size D cup and I have something to grab onto so apparently that works for him.
Anyway . .. I think if I hadn't got to know my husband as a friend first (we met online and I didn't meet him until three months after we were talking via email and phone), I may not have given him a chance because he did not fit the "usual" body type I used to date. But I'm glad I did cause we have two beautiful girls.
Oh wow, this work day needs to end. LOL
Your answer really sticks out to me... typically I am attracted to stockier (athletic-looking?) men with darker hair, brown eyes and kind of a bad-boy vibe. However, I've recently met someone who is pretty much the opposite of what I normally am attracted to... and I really, really like him.0 -

Lol The level of attractiveness of a butterface is simply related to the number of drinks you have! By the end of night, she'll be gorgeous! :laugh:0 -
slim boys/muscular boys/tall boys.0

I have lived in a relationship where I was constantly belitted for my size rather than the person that I am but yet he married me at 323lbs. Suddenly he changed and would constantly abuse me verbally because of the way that I looked. Now when I am losing weight he is trying to sabotage my weight. I guess its an insecurity of some sort, who knows?! I would never ever put someone else through that just because of what way they looked. Having seen both sides of the situation tonight then yes I can see where she is coming from. xx0 -
Older muscular men with height.0

Like Korean actor/model Gong Yoo!
In real life, smart nerdy lean guys.0
