+1 yI don't like when people describe what a "real man" is and what he likes, as a male myself. This is something that society should have transcended by now, as the pressure to conform to certain standards and expectations is obviously not good for men and their mental health.
In general, this is a dumb statement because it also pressures women into gaining weight to have that "meat" otherwise she won't find a "real man." Some people struggle to gain weight, believe it or not, so she need not stuff her face as often as she can in a desperate attempt to do so. This is unhealthy as much as it is an overweight woman refusing to eat at all in hopes to lose weight. I don't think women should stress themselves over a real man, she'll meet him eventually and it doesn't really matter if she has "meat on her" or not. The reality is that society struggles to define what is too much and what is too little, so all it does is misleads you. Your idea of this statement can easily differ from somebody else's idea of what it means so that is why you shouldn't bother with it, and just be yourself.
What men like is a woman who just takes care of herself and is a good person. If anything, you should strive to be physically in shape by exercising frequently. If a guy wants you to have a lot of meat, then you should run away because he might be a cannibal. I don't really see any other logical explanation, and no, the biological attraction doesn't apply here as that refers to girthier hips and bone structure.

+1 yNo depending on the guy. Every guy is different. I like mine thick but not overly thick. I had sex with someone who was super duper thick and it turned out i wasn't attracted to her. It was too much. I also don't like bony girls more those girls who have the athletic body. I just can't get turned on by those girls. It has to be a certain body type. I also realized that most men love the athletic body type and the skinny girls. Also porn shows proof. On videos where girls are thick they don't get a lot of views. But the ones who get millions of views are the girls who are skinny and are athletic. Which I found odd.

Anonymous(45 Plus)+1 yOk where does this quote come from? From men or from women? It always makes me laugh when women say, well a real man would… Since when we’re you a man? Lol We men like all varieties of women. Trust me if men only liked women w fat ass, big tits, that’s all that there would be because that’s all men would mate w. Eventually the skinny women wouldn’t exist anymore. I like all types of meat. While I prefer women like Salma Hayek back in the day, I’m not going to push a hot skinny chick out of my bed if she feel into it. Example, Anna Kendrick, damn I’d love to be w her.
00 Reply2.6K opinions shared on Dating topic. I don't care for thicc or obese. I don't care for skinny or lean.
I love the natural fat that makes women women. Fit, healthy women have subcutaneous fat, not to mention boobs, soft hips and thighs, and round, bouncy butts. I like women who are soft with classic feminine curves.
So, from that standpoint, I do like women who have meat on their bones.00 Reply
+1 yListen, a real man would not mind slim, or slim, thick or whatever! at all. At the end of the day, it's not your body. it's your soul, your mind and character. A real men's logic. I've dated skinny girls, I've dated thick girls before, and they were all great. That "Slim Thick" bull is just Instagram based insecurity.

+1 yI don't like the saying. It implies that slender women can't be "real women", and that "real men" can't prefer a certain body type. It's an attempt for more curvier women to feel good about themselves, while denigrating others who have no control about how they're made, and putting unnecessary expectations on men concerning their preferences.
I myself prefer curvier women, but I also have seen slender women who are very beautiful physically.00 Reply350 opinions shared on Dating topic. Eh. I think that's just to boost confidence in thicker women.
"Real men" have a pretty diverse range of physical preferences.
Like, my own preferences seem to be like anti-matter to what most guys seem to be into.00 Reply- 6.5K opinions shared on Dating topic.
m +1 yit is a stupid thing to say...
different people can like different things...
and it should not make more or less of a person10 Reply I like a girl with meat on her, but no, that quote is not true, as many men like a variety of different body types and it's unfair to shame men for not liking one type of female body.
00 Reply2.1K opinions shared on Dating topic. I prefer thin girls, myself.
But anyway, the "meat" will come with age even as you decide you dont want it to. Enjoy your monster metabolism whilst you can.00 ReplyNo. The only people that I can imagine stating that are fat women who can't get any decent looking men.
However, it is shallow for men to only accept skinny girls as romantic/sexual companions, in my opinion.
00 Reply99.9% of the time, phrases that begin "Real men" or "Real women" are manipulations designed to shame people into doing things that they do not want to do and that are often contrary to their best interests.
00 Reply2.9K opinions shared on Dating topic. I like women from skinny to chubby, but not unhealthy skinny or so fat they can't go on a hike. I'm kind of fat myself but I can still walk all day, hike for at least an hour uphill at 7000 feet up in the mountains, etc

+1 yOnly fat women say and believe this.
it’s a shaming tactic used by obese ugly women to try and force men to like their grossness.
It is far from true.
10 Reply That's just fat girls coping with rejection...
00 ReplyAnd real women have big boobs? that quote might be true but it's a controversial topic.
00 ReplyWhat do you think? You have to remember everyone is different. Everyone has different preferences , different ideas of what they find attractive. You ever heard the saying , beauty is on the eye of the beholder. Go with that

01 Reply- +1 y
No, it's not. It is one-way. It excludes thin girls. Fat acceptance maybe but not body positive. If he had said real men like thin skinny girls that wouldn't be body positive either.
