girls with muscle - sexy or turn off?

^ this ^ and megan avalon... all day!

Well, I'm a girl and think it's sexy. Unfortunately, my family and my boyfriend don't agree. We had this discussion last night at dinner. I pulled up a this picture (my dream body) to show him that muscle was sexy



He said her arms were gross. Whatever...people are crazy.

I think the lady is pretty but to my taste too much arm muscles. I don't like obviously fake boobs either.
And her stomach reminds me of a guy. I don't know the name of that body part in English but I've never seen it on a woman, only on men. My used to be a male friend had a surgery done and became a woman, and this area is his biggest concern, it's still very manly on him. The model on the photo has it too.

Every human has that... it's just low body fat.

Toned is good and certain areas are great toned and defined- such as the abs, arms, and glutes, at least this is what I hope to accomplish myself...

I know my husband doesn't like the very lean, very ripped look.

That's fine by me because I lack the dedication necessary to achieve that look. :blushing:

Most of the time that's a contest time or model shoot level of fitness that the person isn't in for very long anyway. That's true of both male and female bodybuilders. I've seen women that are size 0 that look HUGE and RIPPED at contest time but give them a slice of pizza and a loose t-shirt and 3 days later you couldn't tell they worked out if you saw them outside the gym.

That's what I told him, and what I think a lot of people don't understand.

I want to be as strong and kickass as any of the women in these photos, but since I'm not going to do the prep and fasting they do before a shoot or show, I'm not going to look like that.

The women who think this is "gross"...



Would probably give a kidney to look like this...



No one accidentally looks like that first photo. They look like that because it's how they want to look at that particular time, and worked DAMN hard to make it happen.

How could anyone think it isn't sexy?!

Though, for me, the body builder look is a bit too far.

so sexy

IMO - too much muscle on a girl (or guy) is not sexy. Muscles (as in good definition) on a female are very attractive.

So's so alpha and swagged out. Love her look.

She must take testerone shots

Var for sure. I doubt she'd pin test E/C.

Sexy, if they have hair or teeth.

Just or? Not hair AND teeth? LOL. Personally I think it is HAWT. And i intend to get as muscular as my lazy *kitten* can get. No, the professional body builder look is not very appealing. But idt that was what anyone who said they liked it had in mind when they said they liked it. Hell, even male pro body builders are kinda...ewwwie.

gee, ya think?!

Personally, and I do know that I'm virtually alone in this, I think it's turn-off. I've never really liked the look on visible muscles on women, and I absolutely don't want any on myself.

As a side note, I applaud every muscular woman for her dedication and effort. Just because I don't like how it looks doesn't mean I can't appreciate the work that goes into it.

I would so love to be muscular and fit like that Dana chick (pics above)... dayum.

I need serious work on my legs, *kitten* and arms to get to her level!

I must admit I find it sexy. Not the pro body builders who have more testosterone in their system than a man though.

I like figure athletes. There's something sexy about a strong woman.

Girls who squat have the best legs and *kitten* by a green mile

This




is much sexier than this

Girls with muscle are attractive. As long as they have feminine curves like the woman in the top image and don't look all masculine and veiny like the woman in the bottom image. I personally think there's a very thin line between feminine muscle (yes, there is such a thing) and going the manly route. It is possible for a woman to have big muscular arms or legs and still look attractive and feminine instead manly. The problem is steroids. It's physically impossible for women look like the one in the bottom image from just pure weight training. They just don't have the level of testosterone in their bodies to do so and unfortunately the only way is to take those very dangerous drugs called steroids.

So my answer is yes, I think muscles on a woman can be sexy, as long as I can still see that I'm looking at a woman and not be confused as to whether am I looking at a man or a woman.
