Well in my experience (cause I'm skinny! duh :3) skinny is better haha cause that's what got me laid. I always thought buff or bigger guys had a better chance or that my date or partner might find them more attractive in comparison to me. But there's a big advantage we skinny guys have, and that's we like always have abs lol, and it's much easier for us to look nice if you work out like your obliques too. Our body fat percentage will always be low so we can look good with less work. Hell my father was the skinniest guy ever when he was my age, now he's built buff with a six-pack and he's 53 years old. The extra weight he gained with age was like purely muscle.
You gain weight with age. My older brother (9 years) was buff and ripped with six-pack during his 20's but during the latter half he started to gain fat. Now he's 31 and he's got a gross belly that's hairy lol.
So hey man, right now it might not seem the best, but if you work at it even just a little bit you can get bigger and that weight will be muscle :D And as you get older you'll be putting on more actual meat and not fat like the rest of the population xD I don't know how skinny you are or your family is (like regarding genetics) but if it's bothering you you're probably like me and your family maybe similar xD
You don't happen to be swedish, danish, vietnamese, or chinese, do you? :P

If we exclude blatant steroid users from 'buff', and instead make 'buff' only light steroid users, or guys who are genetically gifted at muscle building and work out a fair amount, more women prefer buff than skinny, but a sizeable minority really do prefer skinny.
Most girls don't like guys who are skinnier than them, either they don't like the differential, or they feel fat, so as a slim guy, you have a better chance with slim girls. Some of them will reject you and go for ripped guys, but some are rejecting buff guys looking for you :p
Let me just start off by saying that no matter your physical appearance, everyone "has a chance". There is a different person for everyone. I personally am super attracted to lanky, thin, and dorky guys. I always have been. I think glasses are sexy, and freckles and dimples are cute. I am not attracted to muscular and buff guys. So yes... you definitely "have a chance" :)
As long as you are healthy. If you naturally have a high metabolism then that's fine. I think it all depends on how confident you feel... because if you are really self conscious about your body type then that isn't as attractive. If you are a really confident guy who just happens to be skinny, then there's nothing wrong!
You're exaggerative.
There's middle ground between being skinny and being massive..
Middle ground is better than those 2 extremes.
This is like a chubby girl asking if guys prefer chubby or all those rail thin toothpick anorexics. Again. Middle ground.

For me personally, skinny guys are most attractive. I'm not really into muscles and I would, to be honest, prefer someone with little to no chub. My boyfriend is pretty skinny, I'd say. I mean he still weighs more than I do. He's really tall so I guess that contributes to his skinniness.
I think it's a matter of preference. Sometimes you just like who you like. In my opinion, guys with huge muscles kinda scare me; like they're too strong.
Skinny guys are OK, many girls just prefer guys to be toned. But then, some girls like chubby guys because they think they're cute or adorable.
There are many girls who like skinny guys, they might just be a bit difficult to find. Sorry for rambling but I hope this helped.I'm the most attracted to skinny guys, I'm not in to big arms or a massive chest at all tbh, no offense to guys with that body type. My boyfriend is skinny and he's gorgeous. He's kinda insecure about being skinny though which is sad because to me he's just so attractive
i hate being skinny and my metabolism.. i eat a lot but my body burns calories faster than a running horse... i wish i'm a bit buff... i look like a twig... most of people will say that my height is wasted because i'm underweight... clothes will always not look good on me
I have a crush on a skinny guy right now... I don't care that he's skinny.
Actually... I'm a curvy girl and I'm worried he won't like me because I'm curvy. lol.Skinny, buff, or medium are all attractive- personality though is what will shine through. Even if his body isn't the best, but he has a great personality then I would still find him attractive.
To me, it doesn't matter. But it depends on the guy and depends on the girl.
When women think skinny they mean fit thin guys. Women don't like true skinny men unless they have money or status.
