Every single time I see a discussion come up where women claim they don’t like muscular men a bunch of women in the comments will say how much they like dad bods or chubby guys or whatever and I’m not saying that’s not the type of guys they’ve dated but I’m sorry ur full of shit if u tell me chubby guys are the most sexually attractive to women generally. I’m pretty sure most women for the life of them cannot admit that the guys they’ve dated aren’t ideally attractive. Is it coincidence that male strippers all have the body type I posted below? I just don’t believe women when they say they don’t like muscular men. Because all my personal experience and common sense says otherwise. Discuss maybe I’m crazy but what do u guys think of my theory. Pic of the natural limit of male muscularity
When most women say they don't like "really muscular" men, what they actually mean are misshapen freaks who piss out pure dianabol and die off by 45 to a heart attack. But in plenty of cases what they describe as "toned", "not too much" or even "ideal" are actually men who have been lifting for 5+ years and sometimes have been on steroids for half as long.
When I was younger and I'd say that I was lifting for 2+ years a lot of women would immediately go like "eek, I don't like guys to be too big!" only for them to say "ohh this is totally fine!" after they've actually got to see me.
Most women simply aren't familiar with what it takes to be a certain level of muscular, they have this idea that looking like Hollywood actors is the result of 6~ months at the gym, whereas in reality it's often the result of years of lifting and frequent steroid use.
Most dudes will never even attain the "too much look", because in women's heads it's generally the extremes.
Do you really think all women have a secret plot to lie about what they find attractive? Why would we do that? Some people like muscular guys, some people like chubby guys, some people like skinny guys. Personally I’m most attracted to guys who are pretty average or even with a bit of extra weight to guys who are toned but not overly muscular.
You keep bringing up male strippers - not a single woman I have ever met have had any experience with male strippers. I’m sure real ones probably have all sorts of different body types, and the ones in films are usually very muscular like the photo you posted which is why you’re referring to that. I think generally male strippers are more of a thing for gay men rather than women.
You keep asking why, you don’t understand why women don’t prefer this body type etc. but that is probably because you are a man who isn’t sexually attracted to men. These types of super muscular guys appeal to the male gaze, not the female gaze - it’s basically what men think a man should look like, not what women actually prefer in most cases.
But of course all body types can be attractive and everyone likes different things, so some women will love this and others won’t
Women lie to me and my friends all the time about what they are attracted to. Including my all girlfriends, I'm not sure if you are being truthful here.
That is so stupid. They’re saying it’s the truth because it’s the truth…not all women have a plot to lie about everything and claim it’s the truth. What is the point in that? You’re just mad
You're right, what is the point of lying all the time? When women get in denial, I ask that question all the time. But ONLY YOU know between us both. Only YOU know why women lie more times than they tell the truth. You are right also about me being mad. Of course, who would be happy about knowing all the women are more prone to lying about what they want all the time instead of just once or twice?
Listen, I don't mean to upset you. I apologize if I did.
Look at it this way:
Your experience is that not all women lie, and the ones that lie are telling the truth, because why not? It would be weird and pointless if women lie for even the littlest things. Which means not all women lie. Therefore men who thinks all women lie are in denial.
My experience is that women lie all the time about nearly everything and call their lies "truths" and when called out, they double down on their lies, my ex was a good example, and try to explain why their lies are truths, which will never happen because lies are lies, not truths. Which defeats your argument naturally. Their is no way I can trust anything you say. From experience.
Filthy men out here sees women as all liars and women double down of their lies making them look bad. Thus making the "not all women lie all the time" nearly not credible.
Until the day some woman can convince me otherwise.
Women are mindlessly oblivious about their own attraction

Dear Lord, how I wish men would understand that women don't think like them. Anyways, this is attractive, purely as aesthetic, he is beautiful.this is way too much, shame as he would be cuteThis is also attractive!Seth Rogen, as an example, is obviously not that beautiful looking like the first guy BUT and this is the main thing, he is still attractive as he has an attractive personality and he looks like a decent guy who knows how to treat his woman. Nobody ever said that chubby guys are the most attractive, as you claim in your question, but nobody said it either that they can't be attractive. Love and attraction come together, and as there is love, there is attraction.
by the way female strippers all have the same figure too, and surprise, all kind of women find boyfriends, from 40kg to 400kg.
I will never deny, I would grasp for air, if pic 1 passed me but it doesn't change the fact that I am in love with my best guy friend, pining over him for years now and he has the same body as Seth, but a slightly bigger manboobs. I don't care, he is the most amazing guy I have met, and I would choose him even if pic 1 would queue in front of my door, with Zaf Efron.
How out of touch r u? The dude u posted is legit on steroids and much more muscular than the dude I posted. Lmfao. Ur literally 100% validating my point. How do u not see that?

Sorry, but I don't see it. I literally said it, I would grasp for air, but I also said that the only guy I am interested is my guy friend. What I meant is that just because someone is attractive, it does not mean much. And I hope you didn't miss the caption of the second one "this is way too much"
The consensus is that most women like a dad bod, those that are super muscle really but so attractive. This is funny to me because you know we automatically assume it was the muscular guy since they always swooned over them but apparently it isn't
Let you tell it but again you don't know anything until you ask and I've asked several and I've been told this before so all the super muscled up on muscle hard bodies yeah it looks good on paper but apparently in real life they want more of a husky muscular type not muscle type so you know yeah Dad body likes X athlete but still keeps it in shape but you know has a bit of weight on them. Trust me and it's not even amongst a certain dynamic or race again ask
Because the modeling World wants you to fit into what they consider a standard of beauty. How many people you know in this world that are considered attractive, that look like the models that you see. Having less than 5% body fat airbrushed bodies surgeries and such starving themselves and all. Yeah not many...
Less than 5% body fat is bodybuilder going on stage lean not model lean. Models are generally around 10% body fat which is a pretty healthy place to be by the way. And most male models are also a normal BMI. This idea that most male models are unhealthy is just not based in reality. Lots of models are too thin and are anorexic but not most. Most are fit and healthy looking. and just to be clear here those thin models are still probably healthier than the majority of people Who are overweight and definitely healthier than people who are obese. People just love to hate on them.
Or they’re proving exactly what my post says and virtue signaling and pretending to like something more attainable because the r idea that they can’t get exactly what they want in a man is too hard for them to handle. I can from experience there is a massive difference In the way women treat u when ur thin versus fat.
That seems like because the consensus goals against what you're thinking you want them to believe otherwise. Which is why people always say if someone's angry at something they'll try to address it as false range but how do you gauge someone's true rage to enjoy true feeling if it's not you but they're being the true self

Muscular and strong to some extend.. but the ideal that you posted is not for all women. I have been with men of various body types, I know what I prefer, and it is not that man. First of all I like a man that is not much broader/taller than me, and I am petite and thin. Feels much better cuddling when I can easily reach around him and so. And a layer of fat on top of the muscles feels the best. Hint of muscles look nice, but the ripped look is ridiculous to me. Especially big protruding thighs, biceps, neck and chest.

No, lol. I find muscular men attractive. I used to find it unattractive. Then i liked a guy.. turned out he was ripped. Afterwards i started appreciating that body type and now it's become my preference. A lot of my friends don't find the guys i like attractive and think their bodies are "gross" or "too muscular". There are girls that prefer chubby guys and skinnier guys, just like there are men that prefer skinnier women and chunkier women. All of the men I've dated have been absolutely attractive to me. Try accepting that we each have our own preferences instead of claiming that we're all liars.
this is sooooo true. Women jus play semantics. What skinny to some friends is not skinny to others.
FACT: The videos of guys catching girls staring at the gym when they take their shirt off is always of a Greek god never a skinny guy becuase no girl drools over skinny guys. women who say they are attracted to skinny guys are the same ones that say they like short men. All you girls who think I’m wrong, suck my clit bitch I’m based.
I agree with the statement but not the photo, he isn't natural.
When most girls say "dad bod" they don't actually mean a beer belly and manboobs like a lot of dads have, they just mean a heavier set, does lots of manual labour type body.
Toned is best for most guys and girls, not outright muscular or unfit. A nice healthy middle ground where you can make out some definition but they don't look like Schwarzenegger.
Steroids were invented in the mid-30s and became widespread in the mid-50s, which is exactly when your picture is dated. There is every chance he was using, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt - even if it's natural, I don't find that level of muscle attractive.
I'm not sure how to quantify a "level of muscle" that would be best, its probably somewhat different for each person and the way their framed
Trust me I’ve spent like hours and hours researching this. They were invented in the 30s but were not being used by athletes until the 50s they just weren’t available like that until then and there are dudes before him who got this muscular too. Also if u look at natural bodybuilding today with polygraphs and drug tests they get the same level of muscularity. There’s actually dudes who’ve gotten a little bit bigger than this naturally. U can become overweight naturally with muscle as a guy. Feels weird but it is possible. Takes much more time and effort than with steroids but still possible. Google Bobby pandour or Eugene Sandow who were around like 30 years before steeve reeves and they were like just as muscular.
Do u think women widely just don’t find this attractive? Like do some women like it and others don’t or like do 95%+ of women just not find this attractive?
The Bobby and Eugen guys you mentioned look more well balanced, they're before my time but far more attractive physically in my opinion. I think it's the stomach area on the Steve photograph that is throwing me off, it looks disproportionate.
At the end of the day, there are a lot of things that go into whether someone is attractive or not and muscle mass is only one part of that.
Really? Whaaaat odd. I figure steeve would look better cuz tbh steeve is a little less muscular than both of them and steeve is 6’2” and they’re average to below average height and I’d figure the taller guy would have better proportions. Is it that he’s sucking in his gut and the fact that he hasn’t trained his lower obliques like at all? Ya know those love handle muscles? Like the hip to waist ratio is too dramatic or something?
Sure, anyone who puts work into their appearance is going to look better than the average person. I'll be honest I know very little about the actual anatomy of it :)
Do u think it’s like this. When guys ask what the most attractive physique is, women think men are asking for a relationship but men are asking in terms of just pure sex appeal?
It doesn't matter how you become muscular. If they do it too much, they will become unattractive to the girls. The girls can only be with a guy, who has the brains, who is funny and has a great sense of humor, just like me, not just brawn power alone. Guys, don't be brawny be brainy like the girls.
I think a lot of women say this because they haven’t been with a muscular man for instance me I always say I like chubbier guys but I know if I had a man that was muscular toned it would be a whole Nother ball game and I would literally probably hump his arms😂
So what’s with this then? Cuz most guys I swear do better with women the more muscular they get but most women claim they don’t like men as muscular as in the picture? What is it then? Idgi
Well not in this pic he is wayyy too big. I think a lot of women that like bigger men like men that have beards also. So that’s like why do men like blondes or women with big butts but get with brunettes and skinny women that don’t have an ass. But I think they do better with picking up hook ups and typically long term is more of a chubby guy thing. And also when you are muscular you are typically in the gym and a lot of hoes are at the gym/easy hookups

Generally? No, you're right. The majority of women prefer a toned man, although that doesn't mean they won't take a bit of a dad bod, or more than that, if he's a sweet guy. I like chubby guys most, but I also have a chubby kink, so I don't represent the majority, I know that.
And just to be clear everyone has a type and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that but let’s say u go to a male strip show or ur having a hookup with a guy what body type would be ideal for that?

The guy in the picture would be too much for most women, I think. Something like this guy or this guy are more what most women would want, I think. Toned, but not a body builder. Me however, my ideal is gonna be way chubbier than that. This guy is damn hot to me. But I'd like this guy too, or even a bit fatter than him. Like, my preference is chubs or muscle chubs, but a guy with no chub on him just doesn't do much for me.
Other than the angle I think the first pic u posted and the guy I posted are about the same level of muscularity maybe I’m wrong. At the very least the guy I posted isn’t too much more muscular. U think maybe angles play a huge role in this?

I think there's still a big difference in the muscles of the guy in your pic vs the one I posted. The chest's width compared to the width of the waist is very different. In the picture you posted, the guy's chest and ribs look like they're sticking out, and his abdomen looks sunken in, although I guess he could be sucking in in that picture. Also on the pic you posted, in my opinion, his thighs are just... Entirely too much. Although I can't really claim to know what the thighs look like on any of the guys I posted. I don't think it's the angles to be blamed, but I could be wrong.
Why are male strippers all absolutely jacked tho then?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Honestly, I don't know. More so than the first pic I sent? I've never actually seen a male stripper IRL.
There's actually probably studies on exactly what sort of male body women find most attractive, so as much as debating is fun, those studies would be your best bet for whatever the most objectively correct answer is.

First of all... I hardly think ALL male strippers have that body type, though I can't pretend I have any expertise in the area. Second of all no, that's not attractive at all to me.

Women do find that attractive, but I don’t think it’s a secret.
What percentage of muscularity does this guy need to lose to be ideally attractive again?

Hate to brake it to you but different people find different things attractive... extremely muscular men are more a male gaze thing than a female gaze thing...
But like why I don’t understand? And I’m quite muscular and yet women seem to find me more attractive than skinnier guys I know. Is there other factors or like what? Cuz the more muscular I get the more women seem to like me so I’m confused.
No all male strippers are muscular... apart from magic mike or other bullshit from holly wood just how much experience do you have with male strippers?
I don't have a clue but females that use male escort service is typically old unattractive women. It may just be that the type of female that enjoys strippers is attracted to muscles. For example, high testosterone women have higher sex drive.
@maverick2022 maybe idgi tho. Is it just me or does it seem super counter intuitive that women don’t like muscular men? Doesn’t that just seem so nonsensical?
Well they do like muscular to an extent. Not usually the super buff steroid looking bodies. Most girls want the guy to be obsessed with her and not his body anyway.

Steve Reeves most likely wasn't all natural, either. We just didn't know much at all about steroids back then.
