Do guys really want girls that are super skinny?

I've never been one of those naturally skinny girls. I have to eat healthy and work out to stay in shape. I don't see myself as fat but I could stand to lose a few pounds (at least that's what I think). My question is, do guys really notice if a girl has, say, a little stomach pooch, love handles (not huge, just a little fat there), or any other areas of the body that aren't "model worthy"? My boyfriend always puts his hand on my stomach and I get so self conscious that he's thinking about the fat there and the fat on my hips. I know I'm over reacting but I can't help it. Also, what do guys think of stretch marks? I have some on the sides of my hips from when I had a growth spurt, and I'm pretty self conscious about those too. If he puts his hand on my hips I automatically think he's thinking about the stretch marks. Thanks for your answers!

  • If you had massive post baby stretch marks on your body that were red then maybe it wouldn't be that nice, but I bet your talking about the little silver ones ~ I have some on my inner thigh, love handle area and boobs and NO bloke I have got naked with has even mentioned them or seemed to notice them!

    Model perfect ~ right lets get this straight for you, celebs on red carpets look fab don't they, well they have the money, the time, the personal trainer, the cook, the clothes fitted just for their bodies and the best spanx knickers money can buy! The celebs on covers of magazines or in lads mags ~ airbrushed, too much make up, lay awkwardly or in obsurd positions so its all false or made up.

    Most of us have lives, families, jobs, other stresses to contend with as well as not having all the money in the world to spend on personal trainers, home gyms, cooks to cook only the best food money can buy. We also just do not have 2-4hrs to train/workout like a lot of celebs do.

    Models from the catwalk ~ the need to resemble coat hangers just like from a shop, so that you looking at the clothes they wear and not the butt, breasts, clevage, curves but just the clothes only like on a hanger in the shop. Frankly most of them look like they need taking down the nearest KFC or McDonalds and feeding! They also have bodies of little boys, which whomever thought that was how we should look, should be shot.

    So all in all, real women and I mean REAL women, need to be confident, make the most of what they have.

  • I know it's hard to do, but you need to turn off the doubt. I'm not the smallest girl out there, hell, I usually consider myself fat (I mean, look at the images we're bombarded with daily! rail thin!). But I know I'm not; still, it gets to me sometimes, like it does you. We frequently focus on our flaws and not on our good attributes.

    Of course, some guys like skinny girls and won't date anything else. That's life. But plenty of good guys, cute guys, want a girl who's not afraid of who she is, not afraid to actually eat something once in a while. I've never had a problem finding guys that were interested in me, and I doubt you will either. Everyone likes different things, and I promise there will be plenty of guys who think you are exactly what they were looking for.

  • I think guys prefer skinny girls, only because I am not extremely successful with guys, and I wish I was, I mean yeah I have some boyfriends but I guess I am self conscious so I think it shines through. I am 00, so I am thin I suppose. Maybe I'm not attractive or what guys want, but I have learned to love myself the way I am and hopefully now, guys will.

    • "I have learned to love myself the way I am" that is all you need miss A =)

  • You need to gain some confidence! From what I've heard lots of guys like a girl with something they can grab onto. Though I'm a little sad at the comments about guys not being attracted to skinny girls because I'm naturally quite thin :( Nevertheless I'm still confident :D

  • Skinny is not attractive, If you have curves and are a healthy weight which can mean you have some extra cuddle padding. There is a difference between being fit and fat and we all now what fat really looks like. Extra curves is a no go but worse in my mind is a girl who is to skinny , there is nothing soft and feminine about that not to mention impossible to maintain unless your genetically supposed to be that way.

    If I gave a comparison of what I think is perfect, it would be Catherine Zeta Jones, or Charlieze Theron.

    Paris Hilton is a no go, neither is here ex buddy or any girl who fits that body type.

  • i always like a girl to have something to her. honestly the love handles are nice. as long as a girl isn't huge, a little here and there is nice to have. not very many guys like the toothpick girlfriends.

    from the sounds of it you are just fine, don't worry about it. more often than not, pretty much all the time we will not be thinking about the extra fat. if he was thinking about it in a bad way most likely he wouldn't be putting his hands there.

  • well ask yourself, would you want a guy who was model skinny? yeah. they don't think too different from us. I mean, do you think about your boyfriends scars and body weight when you touch him?

  • i personally really don't care for model skinny, I like girls that have little more to them so long as they don't cross horribly into the fat range

  • Don't care about stretch marks, but I have a tough time with women who are like coat hangers.

  • not super skinny, just skinny. tho id take super skinny over chubby as you can just give a few arbys sandwiches and she will be just skinny in a week

  • No, I hate it. I don't mind fat but too skinny is unattractive

  • most guys just want in the middle which is like no rib cage mark, not flat chested, flat stomach, tiny butt, etc

  • yeah I agree with the other guys. I've never really cared for skinny girls to much. I wouldn't worry bout a little pouch here and there. there's always somebody out there for everyone. just be happy with who you are and that's all that matters!

  • I hate really skinny women especially when it comes to the bedroom. I like women who have a body. Someone like shakira or with a little more is what would be my first choice. I can't have any sort of relations with a women if I am afraid of breaking her lol. I'm fairly broad shouldered and have well toned stomache and I think I'm like most guys who like to grab the girl friends hips and go for it which I don't feel comfortable doing to a women who's stomache echoe's

  • Every person has it own taste just like the food we choose to eat. Some prefer skinny, some prefer chubby. it's all in the taste. =)
