Can a good physique make an average/ugly guy attractive?

[Anonymous]

Hi there, i was wondering if a good physique might improve my chances with girls. I'm already 19 and never dated or had any girl interested in me.

My face is totally mediocre (if not less). It's not low self esteem... it's just being realistic.

I'm also losing my hair very very rapidly. Again, i know it due to the fact that my trichologist told me.

Having this said, i've got my own interests and my own friends (very very few, tho). I have no problems regarding girl friends (i've got a bit) and generally i can keep a conversation going if i'm interested. My only issue is that i stutter really badly sometimes.

I'm currently trying to improve my physique, considering i'm already tall and pretty sporty too (i've been an agonist swimmer for about 8 years). Whenever i go to the gym, i feel really satisfied with myself and my body, even if 'm willing to get the best body i can.

You already read the question... please don't be trivial saying things like "looks don't matter" and so on, because we all know that personality keeps you in the room but, actually, beauty opens the door of that room.

Yeah for sure and it all depends on the woman. Find women who like you for you. When you’re being you’re true authentic self obviously some women will reject you. But that’s fine. Because they’re not into you.

Find someone who is. Obviously we should all be working to be the best versions of ourself as well as people who push us to be. But not people who will leave because of something either.

If someone rejects you as long as she’s good about it. It doesn’t make her a bad person. It just means you’re not meant to be and looking for different things. She did you a favor. She isn’t stringing you along or lying to you.

The same as if a woman you were not into approached you. It wouldn’t make you a bad person to turn her down.

Not by much sadly. This will only boost your attractiveness in gay men's eyes.

Women care more about things that you are born with compared to things that you had to work hard to obtain.

1. A guy born into a rich family who has tons of money will always be more appealing to a woman than a man who was born poor or middle class and had to work to get rich.

2. A man born with a good looking face and height will always be more attractive in a woman's eyes compared to a man with average height/face who has top 20% body.

I don't believe a good body can add to a guy's attractiveness unless I already find him very good looking, but it could prevent me from rejecting him for his looks. It can't make him attractive if I don't like him but it can make him less unattractive if he is not beautiful to me. But most guys would be attractive to me if they had a good heart and brain and work ethic - cause I will view an ugly guy as beautiful if his personality is good.

One more positive is always an Asset to a woman.

Unless you're also 6'1"+, then no.
If you are tall, then it doesn't matter; you can already get girls easily. You just need to act arrogant.
Sounds like your only problem here is your self-doubt/negativity.

Yes and you should be doing that anyway. Dont listen to politically correct bullshit telling you that personality is everything blah blah blah. You have to meet the physical attraction criteria first and being in shape and building a good physique doesn't hurt your chances

This question was asked so many times, since you are looking for a straight yes or no answer, why not search it already there.

[Asker]

yeah you’re right but baldness (which is a huge turn off for all girls and most women) is never taken in consideration in those questions.

[Opinion Owner]

No it isn't a turn off for all. I'm not sure if it's even at 50%.

Become very rich and the rest will not matter to women.

[Anonymous]

Yeah, but probably the confidence the physique will give him more than anything.

[zagor]

It is certainly a plus.

[Manuel2]

No.
It can show how much of a bully they can be

[Anonymous]

Yeah if you’re tall at least

[Asker]

lol…double standards be like

[Opinion Owner]

Why? Guys want beautiful girls so unless you all express that’s not important we will continue to think this

[Asker]

i mean that if the question was something like “can an ugly short girl still be attractive” and guys replied “Yeah if you’re slim at least” it would be the end of the world. I’ve noticed that, when it comes to physical standards, a girl can say “if you’re short is a no for me” and a guy can’t say “if you’re fat is a no for me”… even if the first thing CAN’T be modified and the second thing can be modified. It just pisses me off to imagine a short guy being rejected due to his height and still be called as cruel if he expresses interest in slim girls.

It’s not my case, but i’ve seen that happening quite a lot of times.

Plus, that’s a pretty huge generalization… to say that all guys want beautiful girls. Such as saying “all girls want handsome guys”, ofc.

[Opinion Owner]

Well we do. All girls want handsome men and all men want pretty women but not all of us can achieve that want

[Asker]

yep… but my comment regarding double standards was about girls being able to say “i’d only date a tall guy” and the disrespect towards men that say “i’d only date a slim girl”.

Ofc i know we all aim to the most attractive partner, but regarding OUR personal taste. You simply said “men want beautiful women” and vice versa… but that’s not true considering everyone has personal taste and SHOULDN’T be offended by anyone due to that (talking about a guy wanting to date a slim girl)

If a man looks like that he just got out of prison
