    I like to be lean but not be all rock hard muscle, if that makes sense. I am happy where I am at now.

    I do not like curvy men, but they seem to like me.

    Lean women can have curves. Poll not valid.

    Exactly, curvy and lean are not opposites

    How about healthy? That was my choice.

    I'm lean with curves and the guy I've never had a complaint.

    I think I want to be lean with my curves instead of just fat. I used to say I was pleasantly plump. Who was I kiddin? I was fat! In my younger years I was always small waisted, flat tummy with a big booty and legs. More of an atheletic build. Im good with my curves but am loving the definition in my arms, chest, back and shoulders. So both! Lean and curvy, fit, healthy and strong!

    Lean women and while I like looking at lean men I like my guy to have a little bit of meat on him.

    For men? I've always preferred my men lean. For myself? The older I get, the leaner I want to be. If you think about it for a minute, you'll figure out why.

    But for those who haven't had their coffee yet: The more mass, the more sag. The less mass, the less sag. I really don't want to end up looking like my granny, who had boobs down to her bellybutton.

    I get the Victoria's Secret catalog, and I actually think the models look great in there. They're not bony; they have fit bodies with some curves. They look exactly how my "ideal" would be. I guess you could say that catalog is great inspiration for me.

    Too bad they get featured on this site more often than not

    I definitely have the curves and I'm working on getting lean. I'm definitely doing this for myself, but most guys I've talked to have said they prefer slender, toned women. <sad trombone>

    We have to choose??? A woman should have both. Curves are what makes a women beautiful

    I want a man with broad broad shoulders. Skinny men need not apply!

    If you have broad shoulders and are lean that's fine.....

    This! I am lean and I am CURVY. It has nothing to do with what I weigh, its just my body structure.

    Oh crazy.

    Well, then I guess I feel happy my abs are on their way to looking like what I see in the catalog and no photoshop required here!

    I think it really depends on the woman. Some women just don't look good "lean" and the same is said of curvy. I'm much more about personality and attitude though.

    I think curvy is sexy. I'm thick and curvy but I know I need to thin up just a little and ton. I will NEVER make myself skinny though.

    why not have both? I don't see how you'd lose (for either party involved)

    boaf !

    It really just depends on the person and some body types are more suited to certain compositions and shapes. I'm glad there's a variety of body types that are all beautiful in different ways. I personally want to be less curvy and more lean, but I'm after a relatively androgynous look.

    Curvy but in the right places.

    Since a lot of lean women have curves, I am going to assume you are actually referring to chunky women who like to call themselves "curvy" to feel better about themselves. To be fair, I guess round is one continuous curve, but still. To answer your poll...lean.
