    I'm in between skinny-fat and ottermode but I'd like to get between ottermode and athletic.

    LET'S DO IT!

    I actually have a little bit of ALL of those... (Well, technically, the only thing I have in common with the Body Builder is the size of our nipples.)

    Bodybuilder, built, bearmode or built fat are all good, in that order.

    obesefat (am now)
    chubbyfat
    strongfat
    (since i don't have the time to do ripped, built or bodybuilder while taking care of 3 kids)

    Ripped/athletic and built are my top two preferences.

    Builtfat and bearmode are okay, too. The swimmer guy doesn't look bad, but I feel like I could probably beat him up, and that is not sexy.
    just cause someone looks small doesn't mean they are weak. Trust me!

    I think for me I would like Athletic/Ripped with a bit more bulk.

    How dare you assume that the plethora of male shapes can fit in one too-big-for-these-forums jpg. Insulting and....blasphemous.

    I'll take anything bigger than swimmer and smaller than obesefat for 500, Alex.

    Alright, Ripped/athletic is my goal.

    Now, would anybody care to estimate body fat percentages for each of these men? It would be helpful in understanding my own goals.

    @ AngryDiet Pulling numbers out of my *kitten*, bodybuilder @ ~5%, built ~7%, ripped/athletic muscular sub 10%, builtfat around 15%

    I kinda have a thing for skinny boys. :) Not as skinny as the guy on the picture, that's clearly too much, but I'm not really attracted to muscles at all.

    IMO
    swimmer - 9%
    ripped/athletic - 10%
    builtfat - 20%
    built - 7%
    bodybuilder - 5%

    Aiming for ripped/athletic, probably somewhere between that and swimmer - not all six-packed out at present, mind. The men in my family that I've known are naturally slim but strong, so I think my goal's fairly realistic.

    For the longest time I thought my girl liked the swimmer look. I dropped a ton of weight, and I realized that she wasnt into me being all that skinny. So I put some weight back on, and now some muscle. Going for more the ripped/athletic. Whats funny is I found out she is sort of into the strongfat look too. We went to the renaissance festival, and we went during the highland games, and she seemed quiet into the big scottish men who throw 55 lb bricks into the air
