    Right now I am working toward bikini. I hope to be there by next summer. I would like to eventually be at the fitness level.

    I like the "fitness model" look. I don't think I can make it an "everyday" look, but I'm a little more muscular than the "bikini-look", on an everyday basis.

    None of them, they all look great but they are all competitive dieters. I have better things to do with my incredible physique than make it weak through repeated bouts of intensive fat loss.

    Ummm wow....I don't even know how to respond to something so inflammatory! I am surprised this comment hasn't been (rightfully) attacked yet. :huh:

    Edited for spelling error. Oopsie!

    bikini with bigger muscles.

    This.

    I like the muscle size of fitness and figure, but wouldn't want quite as much definition as any of those 2. However, I'd like more definition (and muscle) than in the bikini one.

    This too

    From those options, bikini.
    However, for myself, I prefer a less muscular look than that even. Small, skinny, but firm (no jiggle) is my ideal.

    ETA: I'm not saying that there is anything wrong with those looks, but it's certainly not realistic for the average women and none of them are my personal ideal for myself.
  • For myself? None.

    Maybe bikini model, but more likely off-season bikini model. They're all fantastic and I admire the dedication, but I'm not willing to make the necessary compromises to my life to be competition level lean. I'd rather hover at a little bit higher body fat percentage, because at that level, I know I don't have to restrict myself in any way.

    Same here

    So.... if "soft" is feminine and "hard" is masculine...... Which exactly are you?
    I'm not sure what your point is. Some misinformed person on this thread accused me of making stereotypes and judgments about people because I used the actual definitions of words when giving my opinion. What, exactly, are you attempting to accomplish?

    You seem to not understand anyone else's point but your own. Strong comprehension skillz.

    So which one are you by the soft and hard definition of gender characteristics?

    somewhere in between, working towards the harder side of things.

    I *do* understand the other points, they're just 100% incorrect. I very innocently and without any sort of malice used the word feminine (correctly) when describing my *own opinion* about what *I like*. I was then told I can't use the word feminine correctly, because someone wants the word to mean something it doesn't. Then I defended my correct usage of the term, and was attacked, saying that I was ignorant (incorrectly used) and was making stereotypes about what women *should* be. I never said anything like that, I only said what I like, just like dozens of other people on this thread.

    People here have said that the more masculine pictures at the top of the thread are gross, creepy, scary, etc. *those* are derogatory and judgmental words. Yet, you choose to leave them be, and focus on me... when I said nothing derogatory or judgmental about anyone.

    Now you... you seem to be trying to make a fat joke. on MFP. Not only is this the absolute wrong place to come and try to ridicule someone for their weight, but what did I do in the first place? Use a word you don't like? Why do you feel justified in a personal attack? Simply because you have an issue with the english language? I'll say it again: the words mean what they mean. I never said it was a bad thing to be less feminine, I simply described the physical state accurately.

    This thread is about "what is ideal" in a woman. Physically, more feminine is desirable. Mentally, I need a woman who can at least process words on a screen and understand them, and who doesn't lash out at people irrationally due to her own ignorance. Thankfully I already have one with plenty of intelligence to go with her good looks. The more I read this thread, the more rare I realize she is.

    I like the first one the best and number two isn't bad either.

    None of these are my ideal. At my lowest weight of 125 lb, I still have curves and am pear shaped. So, my ideal would be Jennifer Love Hewitt or Kim K's bod minus the boobs.

    Definitely Bikini
  • Somewhere in between the first and second. I'd like to be toned enough to have it noticeable that I work out, but I don't want quite as much muscle as the second woman.

    I aim for a low 20% body fat, so I guess that would be closest to the bikini model.. but I do like more muscle definition like the fitness model has :) I just don't think it's very maintainable to me.
