    Maybe this answer is not to popular on MFP, but I like thick women, your stretch marks are not ugly, the flab you gain from child birth is not ugly, you are a REAL WOMAN, you are not airbrush, An as long as you are comfortable in your body , Im comfortable holding hands and walking proudly down the street with you

    I love you. Thank you.

    Marilyn Monroe = the perfect body in my opinion. I think (not positive) she was a size 14?

    Sizes were different back in the 50s. I believe its vanity sizing that is the culprit?
    What was a size 14 back then would be a smaller size today.
    I just googled it and first site I clicked on was this
    http://www.fatnutritionist.com/index.php/the-body-of-marilyn-monroe/
    Which says depending on her measurements, she would be a 6/8 today.

    When I cross the finish line at the Tough Mudder in September I will know that I have put the work in to have my perfect body. I will know that I have a body that has the endurance to run 10 - 12 miles, be pushed harder than I ever though possible, strong enough to heft it's own weight. It will be my perfect body, because it will allow me to accomplish my goals. I've decided that I'm no longer concerned with as concerned with form (althought I do love my muscles), as I am with function.

    Where is your TM? I'm doing the one in October in Carolinas. You'll have to give me some advice after September! We have the new obstacle where you crawl in ice water and get shocked by hanging wires, I'm nervous about that one!
    Go TMs!!! Mine is Oct in Jersey! yes electric eel... us too... (sorry to be off topic but i posted on like page 3 that was relevant to the topic so i'm allowed to add this one too)

    Personally I think the girl in the photo has a great body. Her stomach is flat even though she is clearly a heavier girl. Just goes to show you that the number on th scale does NOT mean anything! Her stomach is flatter than mine and I probably weigh less. My ideal body is simply that...a FLAT stomach and not the kind you have from being skinny fat! The kind you have because you worked for it.

    Anna Paquin is pretty close to what a realistic ideal would be for me. Compactly curvy.

    In your opinion, anyway. It's just that I see some frail looking girls (on here and facebook) frantically dieting so they can look good in a bikini or whatever. I mean.. yeah being slim would be awesome.. but.. don't take it too far.. Maybe I just prefer girls to have some meat on their bones ;) (sleazy porno music)

    I'd rather look like this. She looks healthy and attractive as hell. But I know others would say that she's slightly overweight.

    SO.. Whats your idea of the perfect body?

    I would love to look like the photo you posted. I looked like that on my wedding day and that is what I am striving for.
  • I have this really odd explanation. My son is gay, and he said to me, "come on mom. You've never had a "girl crush?"" I said, no, but if I see a woman who has my body type when I was an athletic (picture what a REAL woman athlete, like a softball player who is a little more on the stocky side looks like) person, then I'm attracted, but it's more of "Oh, she looks like me when I was at my peak weight, height, etc." I know that sounds narcisistic, but that's how I see my perfect weight.
    I had body dysphoria, though, so I can only look back at those pics and say-THAT was what a good weight looks like. I was 160#.
    We need to all remember that we are different sizes, and that's okay!

    Gonna have to say my own (although with more toning). Hey, ive worked hard, and there's no point dreaming of a body I'll never be able to have... so why not idealize the one Ive got :D

    This one is perfect, any woman happy with who they are the sexiest creature on the planet. Self confidence is more attractive than anything else.

    my idea of the perfect body, is one i feel good in.

    that being said, i don't accept my body 100% right now.

    my goal is 135-140 but i doubt it will ever be 'perfect'. im the 20 year old with braces who still buys proactive, of course its not perfect yet.

    I clearly have o idea how to post here correctly.

    Yeah come on. You're either supposed to post some picture of a chick so we can idealize her, a picture of yourself so everybody can tell you how confident and amazing you are, or hate on people who don't agree with your opinions. Get with it.

    Here are a couple of mine and I will explain why:

    Kim-Kardashian-Bikini-Styles1.jpg

    Yes, I know it's cliché to put Kim Kardashian, and I don't love the girl, but I have a similar body type to her. I don't have the massive butt (although mine is real lol). However, I am short and have an hourglass figure (My bust and hips measure about the same and my waist is slimmer). Also, my chest is large like hers as well, so that's why I picked her! lol.


    christina-milian-running.jpg

    Love Christina Milian. A little slimmer than a tend to like, but also really short like me and also she has thick thighs like I have and the rest of the women in my family have. However, naturally, her chest is a lot smaller and her shoulders are not as broad as mine.

    ^^ Them.

    And I freaking HATE KK. But, she has a kick-*kitten* body.
  • The first picture posted is how I looked before kids, I've always had a big butt and I like it and so does the hubby ;) I would just like to be healthy and toned! I don't like the stick figure look. What's sexy about that? Lol

    :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    And please note....there IS clearly a right answer here (at least for a lot of these posters)...do not be fooled by the "what's YOUR idea" part of the title.

  • You can upload your pics at photobucket and then upload your pic and on the right side copy the code called IMG code but then in the link that you post here just change the capital IMG at the beginning and end to a lower case img

    She is most definitely overweight. I don't find this attractive at all.

    My ideal. She's my height, and I don't want a popping six pack, just a defined tummy, but her arms! would kill for those! I have always had big arms! even when I was swimming 5-6 days a week competitively.

    who is this girl? Name? Thanks :)
