    Athletic. Females can be curvy and skinny and out of shape. If their athletic, they been doing something fitness related and to me that's more important.

    It's not skinny or curvys, its the make-up of the skinny and curvy......Curvy with a nice toned physique is better than skinny with collarbones, but skinny with nice muscle tone is better that curvy and untoned....Just my opinion....
  • Well I'm quite short so... I prefer skinny but it would probably kill me to get there!
    Curvy is good. I don't think my fiancee would be happy if I lost my curves.

    Not as curvy as Beyonce and not as skinny as Victoria. I would say fit like Fergi or curvy like Scarlett Johanson. :smile:

    This.

    Fergi is probably my ideal...her or fit Brittany:

    As much as I hate the word curvy (It's a body type, such as skinny girls can be still be "curvy" and sometimes fat/chunky girls aren't, they are more straight up and down)

    Either way, to answer the question, I would prefer to look like Beyonce, as Victoria Beckham is too skinny for my liking. Although my ideal is somewhere between the two, a fairly low body fat (not really low) and a decent amount of muscle.

    Curves - preferably with some muscle, too. Beyonce would be an excellent example of that.

    somewhere in between? i think :p a good example of skinny but has curves would be someone like Shakira

    This....she is my future wife...just got to get past security, the injunction and make her aware of my existence and she's mine....

    ..I've beaten worse odds....

    I think that healthy is sexy: toned, strong, flexible.

    Curvy, skinny, skinny with curves is rather irrelevant.

    Both...

    ... Sexy is an attitude, not a body size. "Sexy" is not in the clothes, hair, or make-up of a person. Otherwise, men wouldn't have naughty librarian fantasies. Nor would *I* ever hear a man say "I am not usually attracted to big girls, but something about you turns me on".

    To be honest though, I, personally prefer the Vin Diesel body type over Beyonce, but put me in a room with Jeff Goldbloom, and my heart would melt the minute that man speaks.

    Both - or somewhre in between.

    Beyonce is hot, but Victoria Beckham has great style.
    this is true.

    If the curves are in the right spot, then curvy :tongue:

    I would LOVE to be curvy, but it's just not in the cards for me, so I'm shooting for a slender, athletic body. Victoria Beckham's body doesn't appeal to me AT ALL.

    Somewhere in the middle is what I would call ideal. like was said before Fergi : athletic and curvy.
