but why? aren't they beautiful in their own way? whats your favorite part of both bodies?
People say that the female body is more beautiful than the male body?
In the words of Seinfeld's Elaine Benes:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9v8hcAezkk
To be serious, though, I don't think either are particularly remarkable. The human body is just the human body to me; it isn't something off-putting or revolting, but I don't think it is a "work of art," either way.
What you're pointing out is that the female body is often pictured as softer, with subtle and smooth angles - and in our culture, "soft" and "delicate" bodies are what is feminine, and femininity will always be more objectified than anything else.
I sometimes see men on here ask why straight women apparently say they're "more attracted" to the female body, but they're misunderstanding the default use of the term "more beautiful." Straight women are physically attracted to the male body. The male body is different, though, and society states that it isn't "soft" (therefore not "beautiful"), it is "hard," stereotypically masculine - handsome and appealing in its own sense.
My favorite part of both bodies? I have muscle (and the better ability to build muscle) envy. I also like their hands and wrists. Women? I'm not sure. The back, perhaps.

I'm bisexual and I think both male and female bodies are absolutely beautiful. Though for me, there's a smaller range of types of bodies I find attractive for men versus women. For example, I only find fit guys physically attractive...which means you pretty much know what that body is going to look like without using much imagination. On the other hand, women come in so many beautiful body shapes and have different breast and booty sizes, shapes, etc. So overall, I think both are equally beautiful but women might be more interesting and varied.

Because the focus is constantly put on our bodies and our body image. That's why. And men hype up the female body way more than females hype up the male body, which is why it might seem like people in general thing the female body looks better or something.
But I disagree. I think all bodies are beautiful in one way or another, and the most beautiful part of everyone is their eyes. Eyes are always beautiful to me no matter what they look like.
I think a female body is more beautiful considering beautiful is a feminine word. A well sculptured guy can be aesthetically pleasing. Girls would be attracted to it sexually, and guys would be attracted to it in the sense of wanting to obtain that kind of body.
As for the junk part that you've asked every girl. I think this girl answers your question.

It's just the way it is really. People adore women's bodies and other girls constantly try to compete with each other for better looks. With guys it's all about what they have when it comes to most women. A lot of women choose to be trophy girls. I personally find girls who do more instead of just looking good to be more attractive.

I've always heard that the most attractive faces are the ones with the best symmetry. I'm going to guess that symmetry plays into the "beautiful body" thing as well since women have the hourglass shape and their hips are more proportional to their shoulders whereas men's hips are generally much smaller than their shoulders. When I look at an attractive woman's body, I can see it as beautiful for the curves and shapes. When I look at an attractive man's body, I don't see it as beautiful. I see it as masculine and sexy, but not beautiful.

Well I think a lot of it has to do with how society presents it. I'm not saying a woman's body isn't beautiful, it is, but advertising and media presentation are always finding the very best female bodies, with a very specific build, tone, etc, and still photoshop it. We're seeing more of that with the male form as well these days, but it's never really had the same level of perfect presentation applied to it in society. They both have very different styles of attractiveness, the male body just doesn't get the same attention at the moment.

I'm a straight woman, so I pretty much think men are the most beautiful things on this planet, haha!
Everything about a man can be beautiful; obvious things like face, chest, genitals... but also things I love like his back, his hands, his forearms, his thighs, etc.
Yeah, men are gorgeous, there's no denying that ^_^ -
I think it's those curves in a female body whether a lot or just a bit that makes their shape beautiful and very feminin looking. And I think male bodies are also beautiful because of that masculin, hard look. I think both are attractive in their own ways and they shouldn't be compared because theyre both very beautiful in very different ways.
-
People think that because society is constantly reinforcing that. Since men have been fascinated by women's bodies, these are the things depicted as beautiful in art since the dawn of time. However, men's bodies are also beautiful, but it's not just handled that way in the media.
-
They both equally as beautiful. The male body is what turns me on though. My definition of a beautiful dominant male body is being tall, broad shoulders, nice chest and abs, a muscular butt, lean, RAWR! Love a gut who works out, athletic build.
The female body is curvy and much seductive. I say this as a straight female. - 315 opinions shared on Society & Politics topic.
Men's bodies are practical, women's to a lesser degree. There are a few things on our bodies that are there purely for aesthetics and have no practical use whatsoever, or even have negative effect.
Evolutionary men have choosen partners by looks and by looks only, that's why societies tend to put more emphasis on women's beauty.
Men's bodies are attractive, sexually to women, not so much to other men. That's different for women -
It's a popular thing to do (build up women as all being incredibly beautiful sex objects, and put men down as all being ugly and having unappealing bodies), but it's clearly not true.
1. Women are beautiful.
2. Men are unapplealing.
Therefore...
3. The vast majority of women are heterosexual and desire men.
One and two don't combine to conclude with three, so obviously something's wrong with the premise. -
I think in general, the female body is much more beautiful. Oddly enough, my favorite part on a girl is her back. There's just something so sexy about a topless girl looking over her bare shoulder at you, with the curvature of her spine. I'm not attracted to guys, but if I had to pick a favorite part it would be their smile.
-
As people have said before, I think the curve from the waist to the hips of women is beautiful, and something I'm a little envious of because my figure is more straight than hour-glass or pear-shaped and I don't have a huge difference in the circumference of my waist to my hips. On a man I like the torso--wide strong shoulders, solid abs, something to feel secure when you lean against :)
-
The female body is beautiful but I also think the male body is extremely gorgeous and sexy and I absolutely love it. I can appreciate the female body and I've worked hard to make mine look like what I think is attractive but it's male bodies that turn me on.
-
I think mens bodies have the potential to be beautiful, but most guys dont take care of themselves with gaining muscle, toning etc. My boyfriends body is absolutely beautiful! I can't stop staring! But then again, he works out often and eats amazingly well so of course! I think I live his chest/abs and muscular butt.

i was also reading on another article that said that the same effect that drugs and alcohol do to a person who does them, is the same thing that happens to a man when he sees a beautiful woman, he becomes "high" - 2.4K opinions shared on Society & Politics topic.
I'd could be that the female body has a feminine shape. But it really depends on who you ask. Some view the female body more beautiful while others will view the female body more beautiful. The ones that say the female body is more beautiful is probably mostly males.

Because males don't groom their junk well and because not all of them work out. If you want an ideal of the perfect male body just look at Greek/roman statues and add a slightly bigger peen

Women are so soft and innocent and we're all hairy and hard...
-
I think women are more beautiful, and men are also attractive and amazing but beautiful isn't really the word for it, you know? Women are soft and sultry while men are strong and handsome. Two different types of beauty/attraction going on there :)

I think mens bodies can be pretty damn attractive. There is a better outline to the male body, especially if he has some muscle.
-
Because we treat our body like temple, and you guys only help support that statement by cherishing our bodies.
But that's not all true some guys have better more attractive bodies than some girls. -
i think the female body is prettier lol, I'm sorry…i mean, y'all have nice bods too… but a woman's body is more of an art to me than a mans. I don't know how to explain it=/
