    I think you should looks up Stronglifts 5x5 and do the 12 week trial.... And I like skinny dudes...ha. But they are young so that probably makes a difference (dont know how old you even are)

    If you're really interested in gaining weight, whatever the reason. A good lifting program like StrongLifts 5x5 (www.stronglifts.com) will give you the strength training and incorporating GOMAD (Gallon Of Milk A Day) will help get your calories up and help you gain weight.

    I don't think it's all true that girls don't go for skinny guys. I've always had a preference for skinny men. My guy now is very very skinny and I like it! :-)

    Same here. I prefer a skinny guy to one that looks like he's roided out. I don't want him to be skinnier than me tho. lol

    I tried the GOMAD and I just could not down that much milk in a day. I was able to get half a gallon but no more then that. Although eating a ton isnt much easier....but for me it is a lil more enjoyable then feeling milk sloshing around in my stomach, but many people do that and have great success with it.

    I personally hate muscular guys. If its lean muscle, then I'm okay with that... but if the men are extremely buff, then it is just unattractive to me (See: Buff, greasy men in Fireman calendar). I am more attracted to skinnier guys; the guy I am with now is much skinnier than me.
    To each their own, I suppose.

    Do most girls go for bigger guys?

    I do.

    *corrected from original answer*

    Title of thread - Girls dont like skinny guys. Original thread ends with "Do most girls go for bigger guys?"

    forced my answer to look incorrect.

    I dont go for skinny guys that look like I could take them. If I ever bring down my man, I want to have to work my butt off to make that even close to happening. I better be damn winded.

    Lean muscle...... as opposed to fatty muscle? Is that like marbling?

    How about guys are great, regardless of their build?

    You know, bodybuilders and fitness models don't actually sweat vegetable oil and retain that buff sheen all the time.

    I like skinny guys. My boyfriend is pretty slim and I think hes rather attractive. He has some muscle too, and I love it. I think muscles are hot (not body builder type muscles, but anywhere from lean muscle to slightly-buff muscle). He's got lean muscle and I think he's really attractive the way he is now. It all just depends on the the girl. IMO You'll stick to lifting and bulking longer if you are doing it for yourself. I say go for it, if it's what you wanna do.

    WHAT?! But...but...that's why I was lifting to begin with! For the 24/7 shiny look. Damn, guess I can stop now. :-P

    I'm going to be honest and say that I like lean to buff guys. I don't like it when they're super skinny or fat. No hate it's just my opinion.

    Join a gym do resistance training (lifting weights) find out your base metabolic rate (BMR) and eat around 200 calories over your BMR.

    Basal* Metabolic Rate

    You basal metabolic rate is roughly what you'd burn if you did nothing but lay in bed all day. You burn more than your BRM + 200 calories if you get up, take a shower, and sit up watching TV all day. If you want to gain weight, you need to eat more than your total daily energy expenditure (TDEE), which for most people is quite a bit more than their BMR.

    Also edited to add, I like tall thin guys. My husband is tall and thin, but with some muscle. He is physically active, including lifting weights, but he is not big by any means. Also, if I liked a guy's personality, it wouldn't matter how skinny he was.

    if you want to add 20 lbs of lean mass, then it's probably going to take a year at least if you've been lifting for awhile. If it's your first time lifting you might see quick gains at first. I would get a local trainer if I were you heh.
