    I prefer the gelatinous cube look. But that's just my opinion. I'm sure lifting weights a looking great might work out for you too.

    Yes. Fit women are always more attractive than non. Skinny -fat vs lean.... no *kitten* vs nice round *kitten*. Hmmmm.

    I think it is more important if you like what you see in a mirror rather than worrying about what others think of your appearance. High self-esteem is very attractive!

    I think it's fabulous, there are some great before and after threads on here of women who have changed their bodies with heavy lifting.

    I have just ordered New Rules of Lifting for Women from Amazon, it's supposedly the bible for ladies who want to get strong and toned. It's highly recommended on here, I'm so excited to get started.

    A girl with a 'runner's body' can be quite sexy. A girl with really thick shoulders and excessive muscle (where you start to question if they are doing steroids) not so much.

    I'm attracted to what the muscles represent. I look at a woman like Pink and I'm completely in awe of her power and obvious dedication, but on a purely physical level I don't necessarily find such a hard body to be attractive.

    I love it just so long as the muscles don't get too big.

    It's your decision, so what does it really matter what anyone else says.

    I never used to be bothered one way or the other about muscles on a man or woman......but in the past 2 years I have come to love the look of muscles, also realising how effort you need to put in makes it even more attractive to me.

    First of all YES!!

    You really do not have anything to worry about. It takes a very long time to build enough muscle to be/look "bulky". Just starting out, weight lifting will tone and tighten.

    Hate the word toned but muscles are hot, nonetheless, times infinity.

    Hell yes it is!

    What people commonly think is the bulky body builder look takes years of extreme dedication with both diet and workouts and also is typically supplemented with sometimes legal and sometimes not so legal substances. What people commonly call fit, sexy, hot, toned is a product of heavy lifting, moderate deficit and still being able to live a normal life. Women don't naturally get bulky. If you are at a deficit, you're not going to get HYOOGE!

    Tons of bulky ladies in there ;) Or look at my profile pictures, it wasn't until I started lifting that I noticed BIG body composition changes and I LOVE IT!

    To me, muscles are very attractive on women and men. As long as it doesn't go too far! But then again, everyone is different and some women loook very good when they're very muscular!

    I don't find extreme body builders of either gender attractive. But someone who is fit and muscular and looks healthy...yes. Healthy is very sexy. Muscular arms and shoulders on a woman looks amazing.

    Looking fit and toned with some muscle definition is great, but personally, I don't care for the overly muscled, female body builder look.

    Id say to an extent. It shows that you care about your body and take care of it. But I am sorry, there is something about six packs on women that I just do not like at all.
