    Well pro-muscle is a pretty healthy bias. Strength trianing is encouraged in most plans for a variety of reasons. Yay strength and bone density! Haha I think many have nothing against cardio, but encouraging lifting is a healthy notion. Though I agree that cardio recently has been put down quite a bit. Combination of what you enjoy is what is important of course!

    You win the award for the most convoluted comment I've seen on the forums today :) I like A, but B is good, but then again A is good but B is great choice...then again A makes a good arguement...holy moly ;)

    I find that many (not all but many) extremely muscule-y men are compensating for something - height, personality, wallet size, penis size. A lot of the time they are very self absorbed too. I don't really mind muscules, I just mind the personality they usually come with.


    YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF.
    how ****ing dare you?? so every fat ****ing *kitten* is compensating for something too then? because theyre not a stick.. theyre big.. so that must mean theyre trying to compensate for something else right??
    this downright pissed me off, nope i shouldnt let idiots on forums get to me but how can you not.. when you read such an ignorant ****ing remark.
    I saw a tough badass guy at my gym... huge black guy.. covered in tattoos.. muscles bigger than my whole body.. he came up to me and told me i have beautiful tattoos and he wanted to know who did them. and i told him. he THEN PROCEEDED TO HELP ME WITH MY WORKOUT. SHOW ME HOW TO DO CERTAIN LIFTS.. AND HELP PUT WEIGHTS ON MY BARS.. seriously??? if you take that ignorant stick from out of your *kitten* you may realize that these are people too, and generally theyre a lot nicer than those stick wannabe victoria secret models, the rejects. I'd rather be around macho men than people like you any time of the day.
    judgmental moron.

    I like this. Most of the people in the gym, full stop, are decent people.

    I was at a brand new rec center today and was having trouble figuring out how to adjust something since I had never been there. Big gy came over and asked if I needed help and fixed it for me, then complimented me on the weight I had on the bar, and went about his own lift.

    Also had a time where I failed out on bench press and had some guy run over because he thought I was hurt to get the bar off of me (though i had it under control) said if i needed a spotter that he would certainly help me.

    Darn big oaf.

    The funny thing about this topic, is it was started just as one about personal preference, which there is nothing wrong with. What I find amusing though, is how it is perfectly acceptable for people to generalize and stereotype muscular guys. The op, just asked what people found attractive. Which could have been answered very simply without saying that every muscular guy has a small p**is and is a *kitten*, but that is the route people often choose to take. I just find it funny, that big muscular guys seem to be the only group left that it is ok to openly mock and talk s**t about. Hell, planet fitness marketed their whole empire around making fun of bodybuilders!

  • Well, I like guys with muscles...or I like one guy with muscles anyway lol, my husband that is. I never had a certain body type or any physical attributes that I was attracted to, sexy comes in a lot of different forms. But when I saw my husband for the first time, I was like 'DAMN!' lol I hadnt seen a lot of muscles up close before and I liked what I saw...but anyway, I like the way he looks and feels and how strong he is and it doesnt bother me that he isnt soft like a pillow (somebody mentioned that being a reason they dont like muscles) because...well, thats what they have pillows for, isnt it! I dont think a guy wants to sit around and be his girl's personal pillow anyway ;)

    Tall, lean (almost to the point of scrawny), dark hair, dark eyes, broad shoulders. I got that exactly in my husband. Just enough muscle to keep me looking but not so much that it unattractive. I don't like lumpy.

    Yea! thank you for pointing this out, I really didn't mean to make this a bashing thing, AT ALL! and I am sorry for offending any one, I just kinda wanted to show that its not so black and white regarding what people are sttracted to, and yea looking at it now I guess the name sounds kinda mean but I really meant just general attraction, and of course people will change who they are attracted to once they met the person and find out their personality,

    MAN! but once again didn't mean to offend any one! and I don't think its wrong to have budging muscles, I am sure there a lots of health benifits for it, so that cool,

    I wouldn't liken this post to if some one said men who don't like fat woman, I would liken it to a post were it says men who don't like skinny woman then proseded to talk about liking chuby girls or ect. and I wouldnt take offence to that I would think yayy there are men that like woman who are chunky like me, and I thought a dude could read this and think oh yayy there are woman who like skinny dude like me,

    thats all sorry for the up roar

    I honestly don't like the ones that go for world-wide body building. Vin Diesel amount is enough for me!

    I don't care too much either way about muscles - broad shoulders and height (above 6 ft) are much more important to me. I dated one chunkier guy with muscles, and one quite overweight guy, but most of the guys I've dated (and the one I married) were tall and wiry - athletic but not built. I probably would not be into a serious HUGE body builder build, but anything else would be okay. I am much more into personality and can they make me laugh when it comes to relationships

    Math lesson
    many ≠ all

    Many of the extremely muscley men (I'm not talking about guys that are fit, but extremely muscley men) that I have met are not very interesting and usually egotistical. Obviously, I have not met all of them, I'm sure there are some really great guys out there.

    A few of the muscly men I have known have been nice guys. A few have had issues and been ****s. Either way, I didn't find the lots of muscles thing attractive. In fact I broke up with an extremely fit and well built guy (a semi pro rugby player) to get together with my now husband, who at the time weighed 125 lbs (he's 5'11"). So nothing to do with what I can get, I've been hit on by all types. I just prefer thinner men.

    How can you not understand that it's not cool to say that about anyone? In this example, you're insulting skinny girls. Of course you wouldn't be offended by it. If there was a thread that said "men who don't like women that are fat", would you find that insulting?

    No fat bashing!!!! Bash on muscular women, men, and skinny women though. Those are the most hated groups on MFP. Kind of a shame eh?

    Nothing wrong with saying that you are attracted to certain body types. That is not the issue at all here! Like what you want :] Its when you start throwing down insults to the body types you aren't attracted to.

    Like nutandbutter said. It wouldn't be right if we did it the other way around eh? Like posting about men who don't like fat chicks. Then comments like "ewww fat people are SO effing disgusting" or something similar to this thread? That is what the problem is

    I tend to be into body types like my friend Amadeus has:

    or like this:

    (But not really more muscular than that^)
