    I'm sure they do. But the reasons for that preference are all messed up. It's based solely on stereotypes.

    It doesn't even mention that a lot of women feel insecure about themselves if their partner is fit.

    Who can keep up with all this?

    Thank you for saving my the trouble of writing a post saying exactly this.
  • 1. What women say they want
    2. What women think they want
    3. What women actually respond to

    Let me fix that for you:

    Tell me lies tell me sweet little lies . . .

    Though I thoroughly agee with the insecurity statements made. Kind of like loving the way a muscle car looks but not being able to handle the way it drives.

    Does this mean guys with 6-packs are having a hard time getting dates??? Because I am willing to take one for the team ladies!

    Seth Rogan's personality + Zac Efron's body (although, Zac Efron is a little too hairless for my taste)

    I was going to make a similar comment! I like my men with some chest hair! :wink:

    Does this work in reverse? I'm a girl with a 6-pack (okay, more like a 4-pack, but whatevs); does this mean my personality automatically sucks, I'm obsessive, I cheat, and I don't make time for my family? :huh:

    Of course it does. Quit being such a biotch and have a cookie.

    My vote is for Seth! Personality wins me over most of the time.

    I like guys with bellies because they are less likely to cheat on me or leave me for someone who is fit.

    What rubbish.

    I doubt it, I like a woman with abs but your name does indicate you are deceptive :)

    Yes, it does. However it is not about a 6 pack for women more so than being very beautiful.

    Very beautiful women tend to be very lonely.

    You are so demanding! It's gotta be the abs. Fine, I'll get right on it :tongue:

    What study is that based on?

    I'm guessing that if this was a thread by a chubby guy complaining about how he doesn't have a six pack and can't meet women everyone would be chanting the typical "confidence is all that matters" BS. Since the OP has a six pack and is posting something somewhat anti-six pack we're all getting the chorus of "but six packs are really really important" posts.

    . . .

    What thread are you reading? :huh: Half the responses have been affirming that we don't care about a 6-pack.

    This is why I love you. And those 2 other very important reasons, of course.

    The proof of the truth is how many women want to sit on Santa Claus' lap every year.

    I'm with the chunk lovers. That little bit of softness hits just the right spot and it's really nice to snuggle with. :wink:

    ^agree

    Nah, we are still claiming we prefer personality to looks.
