Is your ideal body a reflection of what you're attracted to?

No, the ones I'm attracted too have a lot less penis.
Amazing. I prefer extra penis.
So a hermaphrodite with a minor in manology?0 -
I want to be about 19 to 20% body fat. I'm most attracted to men around 14% body fat. So I don't want to be "lean" and I like guys a little puffier than "lean".0

Double the penis, double the fun?0 -
Hm - in a way, I guess. While my physical type is someone bigger than myself... I tend to be attracted to men who are in decent physical shape... but not perfect shape. ...and I think my ideal body is somewhere in that range as well... So... yes? But for me attraction is almost always accompanied by a mental stimulus. Its rare I become attracted to someone based solely on their looks. *shrug*0

14% is puffy?0 -

It's "puffier" than 8%.0 -
Aesthetically, I think long people are attractive (men and women) - thin and firm, like when you see healthier looking models. My husband is tall and lean, in good shape but definitely slim. Because that is physically not possible for me, my ideal body is way more of a curvy/fit look - but if I could just magically be in someone else's body, it would probably be more like what I am attracted to in a man.0

Eh. Im not really into the whole ripped abs thing. I like people larger than i, but because it makes me feel safe. I have dated skinny and dated fat. I think i was equally attracted to both. it's the person that i fall in love with not the appearance.0

In the sense that my ideal body is one that results from a ton of hard work, yes, that's a reflection of what I'm attracted to. I've learned over the years that what I find attractive is a function of many different things. I've been attracted to guys who were, physically speaking, nothing at all like what I had always imagined by "dream guy" would look like. So there is no singular "look" that I go for.
But, without question, I am turned on by men who have goals and who work hard in pursuit of them. And I believe a person's body can be, and often is, a manifestation of that. If an Adonis-like physique is a guy's only goal, I'll lose interest quickly. There has to be more to your identity than what you look like (another lesson I've learned from losing 113 lbs). But I understand now how difficult it is to acquire and maintain a lean body (whether that's the end goal or just a side effect of it), and I respect the hell out of people who put in that kind of effort.0 -

Not really. I like bigger guys, like taller and I would rather thicker than super skinny. I'm not really "bigger" (I'm not small, though) and I'm pretty short...0

I'm attracted to someone with a pulse.
ETA: Bacon's taco as in the one in her profile pic. It's a taco made of bacon and filled with meat and cheese.0 -
It may sound shallow but let me say that a women's personality has a huge part in what I'm looking for, that being said, Yes what I'm aiming for as far as aesthetics go is def a reflection of what I'm attracted to in women. I mean I wanna be more bulky and bigger but I still am really attracted to women with athletic shaped body's. I'm even alright with some definition on her just don't want a girl who's every single muscle is popping out and 2x my size.....that I couldn't handle, I feel like I should always be bigger than my women.....0

I like when a women is tall and fit.0

Not really...
I'm attracted to woman who are: short, blonde, tan, and athletic... or just really good in bed. Any of those work.0 -
The main preference is that the person is not a douche bag. Oh! They need to like cheesecake.0

What I want for myself is to have a small waist with full boobs and a full bottom, however I suffer from no *kitten* at all syndrome. I will have to make due with the first two once I have reached my target. On a man I find well defined muscles really sexy as well as height. My husband is 6'1" and I am 5'8". I like that height difference. I prefer blondes with blue eyes, but I have brown eyes. I have a preference for beautiful arms. On men I like strong, firm, and sculpted arms, but on women I like long, slender arms. Women with dark hair and eyes and sun kissed skin with the figure I am trying to achieve are the hottest to me.0

Couldn't have said it better! I love a sharp witted, smart , goal oriented, nice, honest and physically active man! Looks are always a factor but there is a huge range in what I find physically attractive, face wise.0 -
I like an assortment of female body types. From super fit to curvy (with all the right bodyfat distributions)
Tan girls, pale girls bring the hnnnngs as well.
My ideal body for myself is large, muscular and around 12% BF so no, I don't think there's a correlation.
Although I've noticed a lot of the guys I speak to who are into the gymlife, seem to gravitate towards the fitness-freak chicks and they seem to like girls with a bit more muscle.0 -
not at all!
I want to be slim,
but I am a chubby chasing fatty lover.0 -
My ideal body is female. My ideal mate's body is male. So...no.
I'm also petite. You gotta be at least 6ft tall to ride this ride.
Oh, and I love facial hair. We can have that in common.0 -
I want 18-19" arms and I'm totally not into that when it comes to ladies. They need to have 20"+, honestly. Also, although I'd be lying if I said I didn't like women with ample chests, I'm hoping that my chest will look decidedly unlike boobs as it continues to grow. Oh, and I'm not usually into women with large, hulking traps. So there's that.
EDIT:Oh, and I love facial hair. We can have that in common.

No! I tend to chase men who have an insatiable appetite for double cheeseburgers.0

Thanks to second-time-around reading comprehension, I am relieved. If not slightly less entertained.0 -

To a point, i am a sucker for a woman with abs, would have to make her lean so I guess it would suit me.0
