    I'll go for the girl who is skinny and toned and has confidence. Or the one who is skinny has muscles and has confidence. Or the one who has confidence in her body.

    Just own it, be proud of it, and use what you got.

    I can't see the pictures, (work computer) but I saw the OP's username and just wanted to say... "War Eagle!!"

    That is all.

    I'm not a guy and I can't see the pics, but something just seem wrong with caring so much what a bunch of strangers think about your body. As long as you love your own body, that's all that matters.

    No one said she gave a **** what we thought of her body. She simply asked for opinions.

    Hmm... I think bulky back muscles on a female make her look masculine. I'd rather be healthy and toned but not bulky.

    so do you think that pic is "bulky back muscles" ?
    bc i think its hardly any at all!
    interesting...
    all people prefer different things.. my husband feels that muscles on women make them look older then their years. *shrugs*

    The other thing is, your not running around with your back muscles flexed all the time. When at a normal state they just look better than skinny and emaciated.

    exactly. i think the second pic has more muscles then the third.

    Asking for opinions on your body tends to imply that you care. Especially when comparing your body type to a friend's.

    Of the two you provided photos, I would be happy with either. Ideally, I would want someone who was in between those two girls. Had some definition but not necessarily as much as the toned girl.

    I'm not a guy but I'll comment. I love my back muscles and my arms. I get comments on them all the time. The girlie in your pic has arms that are maybe a bit more than what I would like to have but still I like her better than the skinny chick.

    here's me . . . still a work in progress

    Not a guy, but personally I'd go number one - only because I would be stronger. Number two looks like she could put up a hell of fight, which .... now to think about it, might be fun...

    So both? ;}

    And the back definition looks peachy - keep going (for yourself)

    Everybody likes what they like - each to their own

    I definitely want the toned look for myself. Both girls are beautiful, but for me, I would prefer to be toned as opposed to skinny.

    Same here.

    *sigh* this thread again

    First off, vague question because every girl has a different pose and angle of picture taken, so not really fair comparison
    Second, the first one is revealing, second is less and third is just back (I know you wanted to ask if back muscles are sexy but you shoulda posted backs of other girls too then)
    Third, every guy has a different type
    Fourth, Most guys "type" varies from crackhead thin to hungry hungry hippo fat. Just depend son the girl.

    I know you're trying to ask a generic question but thats not how polls work.

    Put a gun to my head: first one because thats the body of the girl I'm dating right now, I can see more of her in the picture rather than just staring at her back (and not the best part of the back either) AND (and this is the most important factor for me) I love her hair and I like good hair on women

    Toned, definitely. I don't want to look at someone and have to fear for the next strong breeze to break their spine.

    Also, a toned body speaks for discipline, and that's an admirable character trait. Some people are just skinny for "no reason", but someone with muscles is someone that works for their body.

    Bulky means fat over muscle and non defined. Muscular means defined with low body fat. A "toned" body is one that lacks visual muscular definition, but usually lower muscle volume as well.
    Nothing wrong with a muscular back. It's the level of bodyfat that totally changes how someone looks. Here's some pics to show it:

    As you can see, bodyfat % is what makes the difference. Keep the muscles.

    I didn't say anything about the actual pictures... I just look at the women who are sooo toned that their muscles bulge and think - MASCULINE. III would not want this for myself- however we all want different things and I would never bash someone for what THEY want for themselves. Just answering her request for honest opinions.

    A fit tone with a little muscles is sexy to me.

    She made the comment that she doesn't want "big bulky back muscles." I'm assuming she means like mine (profile picture).
    All I have to say is that I'm pretty sure you don't walk around with your arms up in the air in flexed position...Muscles can be quite feminine if you're not looking constipated and gritting your teeth like the hulk...just sayin'.
