What’s more attractive? Muscular or toned?

Question

HomoFuge · Accepted Answer

A toned woman is actually muscular as well. What we are actually talking about is body fat percentage. The woman in the first picture is incredibly lean. She's probably trained for at least 10 years and hit her genetic potential for muscle gain. The woman in the second picture is lean as well and isn't that far off from looking like the woman in the first picture. However, she has a higher body fat percentage which is why her muscles are not as visible as the woman above. The woman above has more muscle mass too probably.

I find both attractive. I'm not far off from looking like the woman in the second picture and I would be content with that. However, I do secretly wish I could look like the woman in the first picture haha.

The difference between the 2 photos, is that the muscular girl is on a low dosage of a weaker steroid called Anavar, whilst the toned girl is natural. I prefer sonething in between the 2, but still natural (no steroids, because of the bad side effects)

Depends.
Body-fat percentage and muscle mass are two different factors, either can be brought to an extreme, low or high. They need to be in a healthy balance.
For me, a bodyfat percentage between 15 and 25% is the most desireable (you'll find charts with pictures). As for muscles, I don't know about percentages, but if her physique resembles that of a man, it's gone too far.
What also matters are the face and the personality.
Here's a very cute example: giphy.com/.../tinkerbell-weightlifter-q1cJF5aLUwjJK

First option looks leaner and more toned than second one to me. If there's a dichotomy, I would think like this in the extremities of "muscular" (lots of muscle but also fat):

What’s more attractive? Muscular or toned?

And extremities of "toned" without the mass (just very low body fat):

Idealistic to me is a healthy balance (too little body fat on a woman can start to negatively impact her health and fertility, and too much mass isn't very attractive to me) and not too extreme either way, like this (also like your second pic):

rjroy3 · Answer

It's more about how lean a girl is for me. The most I still find attractive on girls is when she has a cute upper 4 pack. They're lean or "toned" as some people say, but still have a decent level of soft curves. The ripped look on girls to me is unappealing. It's not even really about the muscle mass, but how defined/shredded a girl might be. She can have a decent amount of muscle, but as long as she has enough fat to still have soft curves while having a slim waist, then I'm on board. Girl can squat out her ass and thighs. If she still has the slim waist and fat so that the outer layer of her skin is still soft around those quads. Yaaaas lol.

Reaperbot666 · Answer

Based of these pictures.

60% toned
40% muscle

However if you go to much more muscular like a worlds strongest woman contestant. Then it becomes more of a turn off.

But I favor a average/ curvy or trick woman myself. Because I like a woman with love handles. As long as she likes her body.

Mister_E_Alaska · Answer

How she carries and presents herself. Her confidence and love of life. Her smile and if she is intelligent.  Her "tone" will change in a few years. That's not what should matter.

Jager66 · Answer

Muscle lady with another 5 maybe 10 lbs of fat.

between those 2 pics though it's close but I'd vote toned. Women are supposed to carry a small bit more fat then a man, it's part of what makes them pretty.

burlen · Answer

I find the body of the so-called muscular girl attractive than the other girl. Her body composition is appealing. Look at her thighs, abs, and arms.

D_Bone_Steak · Answer

Um, both of these chicks would have my rushing them with my throbbing member. But B gets my long term value... not just the smash and grab vote.

Felinegirl · Answer

I'd normally say toned, but that example picture doesn't look very toned to me at all. In between is probably best.

nathanp97 · Answer

I dont really care which as long is it isn't a steroid look. However, I find the tone girl better looking ad she has a nicer face.

JackSmy · Answer

I actually like her soft, sensual, and cuddly!! I DON'T want to see ribs, or hip bones!!

xkildy · Answer

Honestly you don't want someone who can kick your butt lol

prasanp · Answer

Even though I choose toned. Both look attractive for me but i prefer toned. I don't mind muscular as well. I think both have some advantages and could be fun.

es20490446e · Answer

That what you call toned is the result of strength training, just without chemicals and not around the clock.

CassMi · Answer

I think toned always looks better, even with guys. A male body builder never really looks quite as good as a dude that's just toned. I think there is such a thing as too much of one thing

InTimoreDei · Answer

Toned is better. But your example isn't that great. She looks muscular to me.

GuidoThePizzaMaker · Answer

Both those ladies are hot  But B) is more feminine and less robust  I voted B

Dchrls78104 · Answer

Toned, but with a little muscle. Muscular girls tend to get large, and large girls are unattractive to me.

Surely · Answer

Between those two, it wouldn't matter.  Would date them both, but not at the same time. They could hurt me!

Anonymous · Answer

... Can I say both? ... I can't say both? Okay.

I'd definitely like toned more. Muscular looks great and all, but once you pass a certain point you become more... How to say this... scary-looking. Toned though? Nice.

Kezzz · Answer

I voted B because I like my ladies to have not to much muscle. A muscular ass ain't that fun too spank when compared to a toned ass😜😉😁🙈

COMMODOREII · Answer

I love the muscular girl better but then that would be considered athletic. A muscle builder looks much more bigger than that.

Astrolegacy · Answer

Toned, guys feel immasculated by a defined look like that. Women should be curvy too, when you start to look all boxy it's more reminiscent of a guys body.

Xyline789 · Answer

Toned and simply not fat but not skinny will always be the best.

I don't care, but, she shouldn't be so big that she's having heart attacks. I'm not gonna be a widowcat 45, because she couldn't watch her weight
