    All guys have different tastes. Most don't like women that are extremely sick-looking, nor do they like extremely obese, but of course there are exceptions to that as well.

    My weight has fluctuated back and forth from a BMI of 18 (underweight) to 24 (almost overweight) in the time that I have been with my husband, and he has said that I'm "beautiful" at every weight I've been, ranging from 115-145.

    I was actually underweight when we first met and "fell in love" (that sounds so cheesy, haha, but it's true!), so clearly he was attracted to my skinny self... lol! But his feelings didn't change when I gained weight either.

    Now I'm just focused on being healthy, and I'm not concerned about what he will think of my weight, because I already know he finds me attractive. :bigsmile:

    My wife actually looks like a Victoria's seceret model and I wouldn't want it any other way. Don't kid yourself that a lot of guys don't want that as well.

    Men like confident women who are secure in their bodies. You can be a size 18 and sexy as hell if you dress right and carry yourself with confidence and class. You can have the body of a Victoria's Secret runway model and be really unattractive with unkept hair, frumpy clothes, craptastic attitude about life and everyone around you, etc.

    It's all in the way you carry yourself.
    That is soooooo true! :)

    No one that has a life would be checking for grammatical errors... I am in my junior year of college and 18, I graduated high school at 16 years old and just finished an internship for the cleark of Palm Beach County, I am heading to UCLA to become a lawyer... Stick to the post please and not your ignorance.

    I don't know who you are trying to fool here. You are obviously lying. If you are a junior in college at 18 you should be able to put together a paragraph. They teach you that in what, fourth grade?

    And to answer your original question. No, skinny is not attractive. I prefer fit women. I want to be able to play sports and be active with my girl. Not be scared of breaking her in to pieces.

    Im thin now and there is no hope for me looking like JLo... even though I wold loooooooove to.Woman try to be that all the time, do men actually like skinny, aneroxic woman?
    Everyone thinks it just nobody says it.





    Note- Thanks guys:) But I think the main question is Why does America see unhealthy or sick as pretty, when we dont. Look at the fashion world as an example.


    why does it matter what men think? Why not what you think, instead? Oh, and for the record I have never and wold never want to look like JLo. I am me. I love me. Forget anyone and anything else.

    What I don't understand about this question, is so many lump us ladies into two categories: anorexic or curvy. Well, there are about a hundred things in between. women can be extremely petite and still be healthy and have curves, we can be extremely muscular, we can be athletic looking, we can be soft and feminine, we can be fat, we can be chubby, we can be mushy, we can be firm, and many other things. In my experience, some men like skinny girls, this does not mean they like a bag-of-bones barely eats 500 calories a day skeletor look. In fact, very few men like emaciated (although I have seen it...). My point is, all men are different. The best thing we can do as women is take the body we are given and treat it like it deserves to be treated, learn to love an accept its flaws, be happy and confident with ourselves, and I guarantee we will find a man, (or woman) who loves us exactly the way we are. Confidence will always catch someone's eye, and there will always be someone who thinks your body is sexy as it is right now, and as it will be in the future.

    I'm sorry, but you're wrong. Nobody that has DIGNITY would ever forget to use correct English. If you have not the respect for your countrymen to not fit into the stereotype that America is getting dumber and dumber, perhaps you should realize when you can't form proper sentences, nobody should take the "substance" in your statements seriously.

    From her bio, it seems she's against the "myth" that men all seem to want ultra model women. But at the same time, she's has a pertty deep desire to be exactly that.

    Haha, what a great answer! I like booty too though. Seriously though, I don't really like the extreme of either end (Skinny or Obese).... I'm more into fit, pretty much what I want to be myself... fit:)

    This is a perennial topic on here! :)

    I think men are like women, some like this, some like that. In my experience, if I had to make a generalization, it'd be that men like healthy-looking women. Not too skinny, but love handles & cellulite aren't a turn-on, either. As long as a person looks pretty healthy, I think that's enough to catch eyes, and it's personality from then on out. Also the healthy confidence (not over confidence) feeling good about yourself gives-- so get your body where YOU want it, and you will find someone who loves it (& you). That's my advice.

    This!

    I'll just say the OP's profile statement doesn't really help her case here.

    LMAO!

    I say get to a state of healthful living, a weight and physique you are happy with that you don't have to kill yourself to maintain, and the men who are attracted to that body type will take notice.

    Also, wear red. :wink: :tongue: because all men like a woman wearing red. :flowerforyou:

    It depends on the woman's frame, some look better skinny than others. I personally prefer an "athletic" look, like sprinters.

    Also, there are so many other things than weight that go into making a woman attractive.

    AGREED

    Nothing in that profile helps her. She has many grammar errors, spelling is atrocious... And she should know that a dream to go to law school, does a lawyer not make. Passing the bar and having a law degree does, however.

    Without reading through 4 pages the simple and usual answer is NO!

    Nor does that imply a guy likes obese and non feminine shapes by default,they are both extremes and the same question could be put to ladies about guys.

    I do not want a lady with no curves and the body of a teenage boy,maybe some do and that is their right but based on dozens of these threads they are in the minority.

    A feminine figure that is healthy looks good at quite a range of actual weights.

    Maybe her diploma says "Sally Caruthers" on it...
