Are women that have big muscles still considered feminine and attractive or are they considered more dude like?


A woman can be strong without sacrificing her feminine appearance. But the bigger and more defined the muscles, the less feminine she looks.
I admire a woman with a lovely figure who is fit and flexible but also cute, cuddly, soft and squeezable. Bouncy and jiggly are good things.

Dance, yoga, jogging/running, swimming, gymnastics and other athletics, are good ways to stay strong and fit.




But I don't understand the point of weight training for the mere purpose of building big muscles. What do they accomplish? The ability to lift heavy stuff? Do they think men are attracted to big biceps, triangular lats, massive thighs? Do they want to look like men?
I don't see anything feminine about it.
The woman in the image is not feminine. When a woman loses too much body fat she starts to look like a dude. Face becomes mannish. Chest goes flat & then she has to add plastic. Hips look mannish, legs look mannish.
But "big" is subjective too. I never had a problem with women having muscular arms that are NOT well defined. A woman can be soft and have muscles. A woman would have to really go out of her way to get bulky muscles. It's a sign of a mental illness or addiction. And if she puts that ahead of being feminine, obviously she's not interested in normal men anyhow.
I’m a woman and I see them more dude-like. I’m sorry. I can’t even help it.
My perception sees them as a man.
If anything, they look like a trans to me.
Like if they transitioned.
There’s a difference between weight-training to get strong, and literally taking steroids to grow muscles. You look like a biological man, wearing a wig.
Most heterosexual men won’t be attracted to that. They have to be borderline bisexual to be into that.
No offense, just starting the facts.

This is biological STRONG woman. You can still see breasts and hips on her.
Yiiiiikes... in my opinion, no. Actually, to share... when I do my daily workout I make sure to keep the weights a little lighter and focus on reps and strengthening pauses... this builds tone and strength without making all the bulky buildup that I find unfeminine. The more subtle, aquiline feminine figure and its natural curves are way more aesthetically appealing...
Could not have said it better.
I believe attraction is incredibly subjective. Many people, myself included, admire women who are muscular because it showcases their strength, dedication, and confidence. Muscles don’t diminish femininity; they highlight it in a powerful way. Beauty standards are evolving, and there's room for all types of bodies to be valued and celebrated. What's your perspective on this?
Very well said

You have posted an extreme example which I believe it actually sort of sidetracks from the question.
When you say big muscles you mean like the one you posted on the photo?
A woman who has possibly used injections in order to bulk?
Or a woman who has build muscle with exercise? Because there is a difference.
Nope.

@GeminiDiamond This one needed some emphasis 😅


I like muscular women... but even i have my limit of how much muscle. Like most things in life, it's good to have a balance. Bodybuilders go past that by going to unhealthy amounts of muscle and lack of body fat. 15-20% is healthy for body fat, body builder's go 0-5% body fat. It's fine to be athletic and warrior strong, but make sure to keep heathy balance. A good indicator for women is "if the body goes after the titty fat for burnable nutrients, you are going too far.". For men the indicator is whether you look toned or not when relaxed vs flexed.
Well if the "roles" have turned, and she can do Building work, and all related Man's jobs, then i guess that is a MORE man, than i am, so then i can "transition" and become myself a woman...😅😂... WTF? Hell no!!! That's not Feminine anymore that a Hulk Woman! I mean that's good for the men sorry...(sissies) that cannot defend what they have or themselfs, then yeah she can be a "feminine hulk", but in rest? That's not a woman, that's a UFC HULK...🤦♂️
Exactly! 👍
they aren't considered feminine cause they are not feminine. they are biological women. and some may find that hot. there's a fetish for everything. but i think the general consensus is: they're not feminine. they may display feminine behavior still and choose a feminine style but their body isn't feminine.
Like in that picture, no.. that's clearly not a feminine frame. But you can have some muscle and still look feminine, as long as it doesn't look overdone.
They aren't attractive to me at all. I wouldn't consider them manly though. I'd just assume they are more capable of moving furniture than an average girl, so if she was my neighbor and I had to load a sofa into a truck or something like that and she wanted to help out I might be like sure grab that end.
Muslces are always a masculine trait
Do most women like men who wear makeup? Men who wear high heels or lipstick? No right
Similarly Men are not attracted or maybe repulsed to women who have physically masculine traits
Additionally.. even women don't like Men who have too much muscle
once they get into steroid territory they start to lose a few points in the attractive scale. I think this girl is very hot. She is strong but not freaky.
Poor choice of pictures. I mean that creature would be hideous regardless of whether she had the muscles or not.
Generally speaking I'd say muscles look better on women than men, but that is only one factor. Whether they qualify as "attractive" or not has a great many other factors in play... not least of which is her face.
tbh The woman in the picture is unattractive to me.
She doesn't even look like a woman anymore her muscles are too big and she doesn't have boobs anymore.
It's a very disgusting to see a very very Muscular man or woman like the one in the picture.
She doesn't look feminine at all.
I'm sure someone's into that but bodybuilders of both genders, just ewwww
Generally speaking they aren't as attractive. When a woman takes that much testosterone she's gone way overboard. She's still female, but she has definitely lost femininity.
Femininity is an energy you embody, in theory it doesn't have anything to do with how one chooses to present themselves physically.
Thats comes down from person to person I wouldn't consider them attractive and would see them more akin to dudes
It depends if she’s on steroids then it’s too much. But a girl who exercises and takes care of herself is amazing. Healthy too….. Also if some men are so insecure about a woman being stronger. Hit the gym?
I agree with Account. Some women like to bulk like that to show men we're just as strong. I don't judge her! Do what you want. Would I bulk up like that? No! You can be healthy and strong without using steroids to prove a point.
I like muscular women, sure. But not such extreme cases as the one in the picture you posted. She's juicing for sure.
I know i would never in a million years consider dating one. Plus women who do that to their bodies are 9 times out of 10 rendered infertile. as a man who wants kids, that makes women like that a hard pass.
I find muscular women have an extremely powerful sense of femininity.
I also frequent rock climbing gyms and damn. Muscular ladies are so hot.
They are considered more masculine than feminine to most men. If she had a like muscle, not bad however full on body builder is a turn off for me.
Too much of anything is a turnoff.
Yes women with muscles look most attractive but not similar to the pic u posted. It should be a natural transformation.
That’s steroids, and it’s severely unhealthy to say the least.
It’s all about personal tastes and preferences, but, to my eye. No. I don’t find that attractive.
"Women" with muscles look odd to say the least. Bodybuilder muscles do not jive with femininity. I find them contradictory.
I just want to be firm, no flabbiness under my arms, but I admire other women that have big muscles 💪.
Any man that likes that might as well date another man. It's weird.
I don't consider big muscles woman to be attractive or feminine.
I do not consider ladies who use and abuse SARMs and other anabolic steroids to be feminine
If she lifts weights naturally with no supplements that’s attractive. But if she looks like the girl in the picture that’s disgusting
There are muscular women who carry their femininity really well. A woman with big muscles can still be a girly girl and beautiful.
Dude-like.(Wouldn't want a broad with biceps bigger than my 17-inchers.)
Maybe I would like it if I was gay. But I think it looks disgusting. No interest at all.
No, big muscles are very unfeminine and unattractive to most men.
They look disgusting 🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮
That is unattractive.
Muscular women are who let me know I was truly gay.
Not into mascular women.
I find it hot af
This isn’t attractive
Chicks with big ass muscles are nasty looking.
Not if they have THAT much muscles.
Looks masculine, but quite attractive 👅
Attractive indeed!
Still? When they were considered attractive
Depends on the woman I think
They can be, depends on actions and dress
Disgusting! 🤢
Reah Ripley can get it.
Scary 🫣
No way Jose
Dude like
She looks manish
FUCK NO
