They just look like.....legs. Her legs don't look any different to me than most of the legs I see on hot days around these parts. *shrugs*
I want to live where you live. Where all the athletic people wear tiny shorts. So I can study them.....for science...0 -
If I am honest there is a line where if a woman becomes too muscular I find her less physically attractive than if she were slightly less muscular but still fit.
But here is the thing. That is just me. There are other people out there who are going to find more muscle more attractive and still others who gag at the sight of ANY muscle. If you try to come up with a "reason" why people like certain things you will basically be running in circles and making up explanations.
Here is what matters. If you are fit you are probably healthier than if you were not fit. If you continue to drop bodyfat and recomp to be more muscular you will be even more fit. I'm guessing there is a point where even more muscle doesn't mean you are that much healthier however if more muscle is what you want for agility or strength or to do the things you love doing then more power to you.
If the woman I love decided to get super muscular for a reason like she loved to deadlift and rock climb or something then I would support her in that and revel and enjoy in her successes as my partner. I cannot control my physical attraction response in such a rational way so would I potentially find her less attractive? Yeah, its possible. But worrying about that sort of thing is not a way to live your life.
So looong story short I don't find her legs particularly physically attractive but I think it speaks loads to her will and her determination and that is pretty hot. If I am gazing from afar then meh, if I am in a relationship with her then I am very happy for her success.
Hopefully people can understand I'm just being bluntly honest and not jump on me for it. I won't defend my attractions, there is nothing to defend...they just are.0 -
Those comments are pitiful. :huh:
I think her legs are sexy!
I only HOPE my legs look like that at the end of my journey.0 -
She looks fit-and not to take away from her success-but this looks very photoshopped.
Either that or crap lighting and odd position the camera caught her in. There are a lot of weird lines and shadows that make the legs in general look weird.
Aside from that, though? I'm not a fan of her's, but rockin' legs. And the only time there's such a thing as "too muscular" is when someone's on steroids to get more than what they'd normally be capable of.0 -
I think she looks good, she seems happy with herself. She seems confident, which is great.
It isn't something I would want my body to look like, but that's not really her problem.0 -
Muscles??? Where??0

Muscles??? Where??
on the chest, perhaps. :glasses:0 -
I don't understand how that is too muscular. I was thinking she needed to lift more. But whatevs, media.0
-
The people who hate on her looks right now are most likely fat people. Ones that don't have the motivation to do anything about it & so they will take it out on someone who has.0

The people on that website posting b/s comments don't know how weight loss works. She looks great...legs and all.0

I don't like her legs! I've got muscley legs too. But there's something I don't like, maybe too angular or just too bulky. They look like they need a good foam roll.0

Yay. Body shaming.0

The people in the comment section are ridiculous. Her legs don't even look muscular, just slim.0

Too muscular for what?
Exactly what I was thinking0 -
Since you're asking our opinion on the title I will have to tell I don't like her figure that much, at least that's not the kind of figure I'd like to get or that I admire. But I do admire the fact that she's probably healthy to look like that.0

I think she looks great! Definitely not "too muscular".0

I don't understand how that is too muscular. I was thinking she needed to lift more. But whatevs, media.
What's more sad? The number of people saying that her legs are "manly" and "not feminine." :noway:0 -
I think she looks great, I would kill to have legs like that.0

Stop body shaming.0

To me she looks great. And what ever the rest of the world thinks, I really don't care. If only the real world were that way (worried about how others look, wear, have, etc.), how much easier would it be.

I think "too muscular" IS a thing for 99% of people if we are all to be honest. Where that line is drawn is just going to be different for different people. What people find attractive is just what they find attractive, I don't think its fair to attribute fault because you look down on what other people find attractive or not attractive.
That said I agree the comment section on that thread is pretty pathetic. Just because you don't find something attractive doesn't mean you have to mock it.0 -
Stop body shaming.
i hope you didn't direct this to me...I was curious about what people here think, that's all.0 -
She can't win can she? Either she's too fat, ridiculed for wearing mom jeans, and now for whatever reason. Gawd help her if she's seen in public with a zit.0

Yeah I agree with that. I mean I find a certain type of musculature attractive in a woman. I definately like fit and some muscle and even a lot of muscle really but a particular shape that not all have.
I'm with you that its not so much the amount of muscle but they do look off to me for whatever reason. Sorry to be blunt guys, again I'm not going to attempt to justify what I find attractive and what I don't find attractive I really don't have control over that.0 -

Nicely put Aaron. I wouldn't fancy her if I were a bloke tbh. I think I'd end up fancying bikini models circa 20% fat. But liking the look of someone and being really into the whole package are two different things. I really like looking at women's bodies, probably more than men's. I personally think it's really easy to go over a tipping point for women into too bulky, I flirt with these lines with my own body. I have to almost force myself to keep some fat on and not lift too heavy, it's detrimental to my speed and my femininity. It's so tempting to go too far though. It's like you feel you can be strong enough to conquer the world.
Here's the funny thing though. I'm not fussy whether my guys have big or little muscles, as long as they are reasonably fit. (And don't have sloping shoulders-only because my lying ex did)There's only one muscle that determines how much I fancy em.
That's right.
Their brains! Nothing sexier than a funny, happy, smart guy.0 -
Wow! Hadn't seen this. I think she looks great.0
