Do girls prefer strong men over weak physically?

Women on GAG will say that they hate muscles and that they like chubby guys or pencil-necked weaklings.

Normal women though:

There's a reason that male strippers look like this:

And not this:

[djmzes]

Simple

[Ponycargirl12]

I prefer strong men. Physically speaking, I prefer a muscle guy who has some body fat. Again, that's just the hormones talking 😆 😊

[Asker]

Would you rather have a strong man or ryan Gosling guy?

[Ponycargirl12]

Hmm. I think I'm attracted to the strength more. Plus I don't find a 6 pack very attractive. But the big arms chest and back, yummy lol !

[Asker]

Thats crazy i thought all girls wouldn't mind a6 pack

[Ponycargirl12]

It's aesthetically pleasing, but physically a turn off to me. I like a guy who's got a little meat on him lol

[whatamievendoing117]

pft look at this bear hunter, legs are important too you know you! I'd like to see you TRY and push 600lbs on the leg press.

[Asker]

Thats not a bad thing lol your saying you never go for any other kind of guy?

[Ponycargirl12]

It really depends 😊 Sexually I'm attracted to that but romantics are a dif ballgame

[Ponycargirl12]

@whatamievendoing117 Haha omg true and i love me a big bear 😆

[whatamievendoing117]

yeah the leg press is true too, I don't even know how bless my blood I am able to as a nerdo push that much for instance.. I mean I can do barely 15 the tailbone stresses and it feels like something's gonna break but it can be done, leg stuff is kinda fun but I SUCK at cardio. thicc legs crush, puny top-heavy mortal!!!

[Asker]

Lol i guess i'm the same way sometimes nerds and rocker girls get me going but a all American blonde is nice for romance🤷‍♂️

[Ponycargirl12]

@whatamievendoing117 600lb for 15 rep? a God right here

[Ponycargirl12]

Awesome 😊 interesting how we value dif qualities/looks in lust and romance

[whatamievendoing117]

@Ponycargirl12 yeah I'm fairly certain my body told me the whole time and immediately after I was a fucking idiot and it's really not even good to do when you're not actually built enough but hey I DO. tbh it might have been 500/550 now that I think about it but for the notion what's the diff. Your arms are simply no match. hmph!

[Hurlyburly]

Strong ones. But yet again, pretty much every guy is stronger than a woman anyway.

[slifes201]

This statement is purely wrong.
" every guy is stronger than a woman anyway.".

[Hurlyburly]

@slifes201 not every one, but almost. The genetic differences are quite huge.

[slifes201]

You can say that an average man in general is stronger than an average woman.
Buy saying that a man is always stronger than a woman is wrong.. its just like all men are taller than women.

[Ponycargirl12]

@slifes201 So true

[Hurlyburly]

@slifes201 as I said, "pretty much". Of course there are women which take steroids or men which are physically disabled. But both are more of an exception than a rule.

[Asker]

What how are you going to debate that men aren't naturally stronger? Do you think women are naturally stronger?

[slifes201]

No not talking about such extreme cases.
In general a woman can be heavier and /or taller than a man anyway.
Like a man can be 5'7 and a woman can be bigger and 5'8+. I'm such case the woman is surely stronger and powerful than him and can dominate him and beat him easily

[Hurlyburly]

@slifes201 heavier and taller doesn't equal stronger. I have yet to meet a guy which couldn't put me down in seconds if he wanted to. And this although I am tall and stronger than a lot pf my female friends.

[slifes201]

Have you tried it in reality and experience that men can easily put you down in seconds although they were shorter and seemingly weaker than you?
How tall are you and what's your weight?

[Hurlyburly]

@slifes201 I'm 5'10 and weigh around 70kg. And yes, I did tried that a few times with male friends, frustrating as fuck. But not only that, they can also carry heavy things way easier than I could.

[slifes201]

That's nice height and weight actually!!
You still easily loose to men who are lighter and even smaller than you?
Ever had a shorter man easily put you down?

[Hurlyburly]

@slifes201 yes, as I said male friends. Do not underestimate the power of hormones when it comes to muscle building. Steroids consist of artificial testosterone for a reason.

[slifes201]

I mean was any of your male friend shorter than you and even seemingly weaker/ skinnier?
Do you go to Gym as well?

[Hurlyburly]

@slifes201 I used to for a while but then I got lazy again. And yes, both shorter and skinnier.

[slifes201]

These shorter and skinnier men were gym goers and were muscular?

[Hurlyburly]

@slifes201 no? They weren't xD

[slifes201]

Damn it...
They were shorter as in around 5'7 or so , slimmer than you and still easily were able to put you down and overpower tall and big built woman like you?

[Hurlyburly]

@slifes201 yes. How often do I have to repeat myself? I am weaker than most guys. End of discussion.

[slifes201]

Because I Can't believe that.
How can someone who is shorter and skinnier than someone easily overpower someone taller and heavier and bigger than himself... just because he is a male?
It was easier for them as well or it was difficult and they just won it in the end although it was equally balanced with you?

[Hurlyburly]

@slifes201 fat doesn't equal muscle and neither does height. A 300kg woman could only win against a man if she lays down on him. I'm pretty sure that it was easy, at least they laughed about me.

[slifes201]

If someone is heavier and taller... obviously they have a bit advantage since the slimmer person wouldn't be able to push/lift/carry the other person easily.. and as we also know being taller has its and in fighting.
Did you wrestle with them or it was something different fight?
Seriously just because someone is a male... how would he easily win...
If a man is 5'5 , 51 kg and doesn't go to gym... and a woman is 5'10, 75 kg and sometimes goes to gym...
Would the man still easily win and overpower her?

[Hurlyburly]

@slifes201 as long as the woman doesn't actually weightlift (cardio doesn't count) and is really dedicated to it it is still likely that the guy is naturally stronger. She could have stronger legs though due to her weight.

[slifes201]

Yes, and even in general women have bigger stronger legs than men anyway.
So having bigger stronger and longer legs would give her advantage or no?

[slifes201]

Wouldn't a 5'10, 75 kg woman be easily able to lift/push a mere 5'5, 52 kg man?

[Hurlyburly]

@slifes201 no, women in general do not have stronger legs (only fatter), the strength difference is only less present than on the upper body and is easier to compensate.

[slifes201]

Having fatter bigger legs and thighs wouldn't give a woman an advantage by default... since her kicks would be more powerful and it would be hard to push her of her feet?

[slifes201]

What do you mean by , the strength difference is only less present than on the upper body and is easier to compensate.,?

[Hurlyburly]

@slifes201 the strength difference between men and women. When it comes to the upper body it is huuuuuge, but for legs men are only... I think 1,5 times as strong on average? I'm not sure if I remember correctly. Anyway it's a difference which is easier to overcome with training.
But again, fat doesn't equal muscle.

[DailyPoll]

@slifes201 In my gym experience, your average woman who lifts regularly (but doesn't do roids) will be about as strong in the upper body as a guy who is a bit taller than her but who doesn't lift.

[slifes201]

I guess you underestimate the power f a female body...
Lol. Do you seriously feel a man with skinny legs and thighs would still have more powerful legs than a woman who has Big heavy legs and heavy thighs?

A man with skinny torso and slim arms would have more power A woman with more body weight and bigger arms?

[Anonymous]

If it's between strong and weak, then strong. However, height overrules this, if a guy is taller he is more attractive, even if he is weak and someone else that is shorter is strong.

[VaIiant]

The obvious, straight forward answer here is yes.

[Asker]

Yea but most girls like justin bieber and ryan gosling? So maybe it's not so obvious?

[VaIiant]

I have yet to meet a girl who likes Justin Bieber. As for Ryan Gosling, girls might like strong men, but that doesn't mean we DISLIKE men who aren't strong. Ryan Gosling is hot, and we like hot guys.
Also, just because a man is slender doesn't mean he's not strong.

[Anonymous]

mental, emotional strength seems to matter more than physically it seems

[Redstang88]

That’s the general pattern.

[lanabug]

Strong

[name_is_eric]

Strong.

[Anonymous]

Obviously strong

[Asker]

Justin bieber= weak ryan gosling = weak. Your comment= weak

[ChiTown33]

those two both have strong bank accounts ergo they're strong in a modern sense. lol and i bet Gosling is stronger than you think anyhow.

[Asker]

Lmao i agree the strong bank account does play a role haha😂

[Asker]

And im sure ryan can throw a punch
