What you think is the real reason people don't appreciate muscles on women?

[Anonymous]

Iam not seeking here for any validation about me and my partner. But trying to understand the mindset. If the peoples opinion is based on their society or the background they come from.
Following are the reasons i found with personal experince after interaction with people and their comments and reactions.
1-----They have their won beauty standards degined for women in their mind which do not match with a muacle women.
2---- They feel threat to their musculinity when a women is stronger and has muscles.
3---- They just go with the society sterotypes amd never give a thought about it.
4---- It hurts their male ego and think its embarressing fot them and are scared of society reactions and comments

[MCheetah]

We've already told you this: It's an extremely masculine trait and 99% of straight men don't want women looking like men. ... Jacked-up men who use steroids, no less.

Yeah, what EVERY man should find "sexy," according to you... 🙄

YOU'RE the one who seems to have more of a problem with it, than anything else, instead of not giving a sh*t what people think about buff chicks or your spouse. The fact that you seek validation from strangers on the internet about them not liking super, ultra, masculine looking "women" (technically and biologically speaking) says more about you being the one who's insecure with it - the women or people's approval of said women.

"1-----They have their [one] beauty standards designed for women in their mind which do not match with a [muscle] women."

No. And this is ironic, considering you think other straight men should like jacked-up steroid monsters with vaginas. Which is fine, if you DO like that. But no one else is obligated to like what you like.

So "sexy!"

"2---- They feel threat to their [masculinity] when a women is stronger and has muscles."

Nice try with this bullsh*t. Almost no man is going to think a steroid mass of muscles and veins is going to "threaten their masculinity." Although you typing this strawman is ironic, because you are implying you DO agree that these women display masculine traits (ones that would "threaten" those of insecure men), yet cannot see why straight males wouldn't see that as attractive or desirable in any women?

"3---- They just go with the society [stereotypes and] never give a thought about it."

It's not a stereotype that people - men and women - aren't supposed to look like The Hulk. Not even ancient Greeks or Cro-Magnon men looked like modern bodybuilders. Also, to burst your bubble, many men DO like fit athletic women. But they are women who look like THIS, not like a mass of muscle and veins.

Most men find this acceptable on women. This isn't "muscle," though. It's tone.

"4---- It hurts their male ego and think its [embarrassing for] them and are scared of society reactions and comments"

This, ladies and gentlemen, is called projection. With a tinge of bullsh*t, but mostly projection. HOW many times have you asked this question, on here? Seeking validation from internet strangers because they don't want to f*ck The Hulk with a Vagina. (Not even "She-Hulk." Specifically "The Hulk with a Vagina." Gender-bent Bruce Banner. I know what I said.)

And look dude, I get it. We all have stuff we obsess over. Mine's is my height. The difference? I'm not laming other people for my issues and sh*t. Like you seem so hellbent on doing.

5---- Also, it just looks gross and nasty, to some.

I added this reason in, myself. Human beings aren't supposed to look like THIS.

Yeah. Who doesn't want to rub one out to THIS?

You can accept these answers or continue denying what I said. The easy way or the hard way: the choice is yours.

[MCheetah]

Also, we all have things we like. So I'll post this.




My idea of what is attractive in a woman is the total opposite from what turns you on.
I'm guessing you probably don't like women who look like my "type."
Should I get mad that other guys aren't into six foot tall big beefy girls who are not "visibly healthy"? Like Hayley, here?
Should I claim some loose excuse about it "trying to understand the mindset?"
No. No I should not.

We all like what we like. (I like my super-tall, super-heavy cute, nerdy Ginger girls with social anxiety.)
No one is obligated to like what we like, either.

[TruthBringer]

You absolutely NAILED IT with this one. I love when these effimate men try to project their lack of masculinity and self-respect on other men who do posses these traits. Not to forget to mention the idiots who actually buy this crap (like the one girl with a specific car name)

[SteveSmith1985]

Interesting question! I thought it was an interesting question before I realized you had any sort of personal stakes in the answer. I didn't realize you happened to be dating a muscular woman. Don't worry, that doesn't change my answer. It just makes me feel like I owe you a (somewhat) thought out answer.

So, I find the results of your own research into why men don't appreciate muscles on women, and to be honest I was a bit surprised that you found so many different answers. Or... more accurately... I assumed everyone would have the same reasons I happen to have. Totally unjustifiable assumtion on my part. I had no right to be surprised. Nevertheless, I was surprised.

So for me, it's absolutely 100% the 'first reason you suggested'. It comes down to having developed my own ideas of 'female beauty' (or, more accurately 'have been socialized to internalized'... not really 'developed my own'). An overly muscular girl clashes with those 'beauty standards'. That's really what it is for me.

Now, I did find it interesting that you found guys found it threatening to their masculinity either internally, or in the reaction of other people. I can't say that plays a role for me. For example, I wouldn't really care if a girl could beat me in an arm wrestling match... as long as she didn't LOOK like she could (or, actually, come to think of it... I don't want her ACTING like she can beat me up... even if she could).

The point is, it's not really a threat to my masculinity. At least not on a conscious level. BUT because 'being muscular' IS very much a part of the societal idea of "masculine beauty" (if you'll allow me that awkward term).

So, if I'm honest. I'd have to admit that not only does a muscular woman not fit my own image of 'femine beauty' it 'strayes' from that ideal in a way that is decidedly 'towards the masculine'.

So I don't really see it as a threat to my masculinity. But I DO in a weird way see it as a woman becoming less beautiful... in a way that makes me see her in a more masculine way.

I think... for me... it really is as simple as big muscles=masculine beauty (to me) Since I'm not attracted to masculine beauty (I'm straight) big muscles are unappealing to me.

Very interesting question. Have you always been into girls with big muscles? Because... if you just found some awesome chick who happened to have big muscles... that's different. Anyone could do that easily enough (myself included). 🙂

[CrazyGirl2]

Honestly @Randy121… it MAY very well be a societal non-conformation issue! I am very open about being a trans ally, but these women bodybuilders, don’t claim any masculinity, they claim to be feminine… Well sorry, NO! That is just not feminine. Just like if a man entered the “Miss America” contest including wearing an evening gown and the same bathing suit as ALL the other contestants. I would never say he was gay BECAUSE of that, but there is NO WAY he could dare tell me that he was no less masculine because he did it! You have a right to do that to your body as a woman, and I support and applaud that right, I’ll even fight and protest right there with you if someone tries to stop you! But… you definitely lose the right to say you are a dainty feminine woman once you do that to your body. I’m not attracted to women at all, but I can appreciate the beauty in beautiful women. And to me bulging muscles are just not beautiful on a woman, a flat tummy and a hint of a six (well 4-pack). And just stay toned. I understand that many men LOVE that look on women, but just spend enough time here on GaG, and what men actually find attractive will make you gag! (Including Japanese cartoons with hermaphroditism? Ahhh C’est la vie! ) So I understand that this may not be the answer you were looking for. But I hope you at LEAST respect my right to (usually) silently feel this way, even though you may not like it, just as I respect your right to do it, even though I do not like it?

[CrazyGirl2]

@Randy121 We can have the conversation here, in my DM nobody else will get yo benefit from it.

[Asker]

Yes please check your dm

[Guyvo]

You life in a small world. What it means being a woman is so different in many other cultures around the world. Women who want to build up more muscle just try to expand what makes a woman a woman. Look at the personification of what femininity looks like, the goddes of Venus. She hasn't got a 4 pack either now does she. I'm sure she hasn't got the fat percentage as the girls you described

[CrazyGirl2]

@Guyvo No, I actually don’t live in a small world, I am very well traveled and my family own multiple homes on multiple continents, and ad hominem attacks don’t bolster your point, they merely reveal your character as small and weaken your point! Beauty standards in the west have changed since Botticelli painted “The Birth of Venus” in the 1486. One would have to be naive at best to think beauty standards don’t change over 535 years. But the painting of Venus does show a normal feminine woman… any woman can look JUST like “Venus” simply by eating… a lot! Back in the 15th century, even through the mid 20th century, larger women were considered “healthy” because their weight showed that they ate a lot, and in times of food scarcity, rotund women were either wealthy, or at least well fed, thus they would produce healthier babies more likely to survive the first 5yrs of life! today, medical knowledge taught us that is is not healthy to be overweight, so people, both men and women eat well, and work out. However, beginning in the very late1960’s with the “Twiggy” models, the modern “thin is in” beauty standard began in earnest. A flat tummy shows minimal body fat, and is both feminine and healthy. A bulging muscular body is a manly thing, and while some women (especially) early in their body building may still look feminine and beautiful, this would likely be where you find any pictures you choose to attempt to debunk my opinion… women in the earliest stage of bodybuilding! Actual women body builders, the competitors, LOOK like men! Their faces look masculine, they loose their breasts and require implants… how is any of this feminine? Look, I get it YOU find it attractive… Good for you, find a muscular woman and be happy, I wish you all the best. But when people ask for opinions, they are going to get opinions that they don’t like!

[CrazyGirl2]

@Randy121 I’m sorry Randy, but I’m not having this discussion with you I’m my DM. I have very strict rules for whom i DM with. I only DM people with whom I have at LEAST 4 weeks of positive interaction out there in the forums. Plus, this discussion would be of no benefit to anyone else if it occurred in the privacy of my DM. Anything you wish to discuss with me, we can do it all here. It would benefit so many people, not just you and I.

[somesoul]

Simple, physically ~ muscular woman are ugly and beautiful woman are delicate in nature. Birth givers are nurturers and warm, that's why god only allowed woman to give birth and not man. A baby is pure and delicate and needs to be handled delicately and a woman can offer that, not a man. A man's hand is rough, a woman's hand is delicate. A man's heart is ver loving but he does not show that and has a rough exterior ( like a coconut) because he is a protector of the family, a woman's heart is delicate and takes care of the family and babies. A man and woman both can work as in have a job to earn money because work is a mental activity. A woman leaves her place where she was born and goes to her husband's family to stay forever ( this is her sacrifice and is emotional and full of feelings ) and her husband offers her the protection which once her dad used to offer.

[HighValue]

Men have feelings, can be gentle, and care for their children too you know.

[somesoul]

Sure but a baby will go for milk to it's mom. A woman who gives birth is naturally the one how her baby is. A father would be second, a mom will always be the first one.

[somesoul]

I personally would hate it if my mom was masculine eww yuck.

[HighValue]

Well I have had a number of students over the years that said they wish I was their parent instead and cared more about them than their mother did. From what I have seen (maybe it is mostly in America) many women don't care much for their kids and see them as a burden, either because of unintended births due to the hook up culture here, or they just had kids for the child support and tax breaks/government benefits, but many of them surely don't care about their kids here.

It is probably different where you are from.

[somesoul]

Oh shit that sucks. Let's put Hookup oriented woman as an exception.

[t-8900]

So you open up and attack with shaming language. Then you try to say you aren't seeking validation? if so you wouldn't need to throw insults. Talking about because men will feel "Intimidated" but no... I've been in street fights most of my life, I'm 6'3, and muscles dont count for shit against someone who's got a lot of experience in MMA. I've laid out a body builder before, he went to sleep rather quickly, more so then some others smaller than him. You can have big muscles and still have a glass jaw, just saying. for me muscles just in general like that look manly. Like it's a boner killer. I dont know how else to say it.

For ME and it's just me it's basically not much different from dating an early transitioning person. I find femininity attractive. I find smaller bodies attractive. Like we all have sexual preferences. Some people like others of a certain skin color or body type. Yeah some guys love them some BBW and others like them some sticks. I just like an average body that can fluctuate between thinner or heavier idc. But to me it just looks normal and natural. So maybe learn from the phrase "To each their own" before throwing idiotic insults.

[t-8900]

I dont approve people on my account I dont know well enough. Whats the nature of your inquiry? I'm just curious.

[Joshua_L_Blackmon]

you sound like a butter cup , I've been with tough women , but I don't prefer tough women. Its neither attractive or unattractive.. Unless they are disfiguredly tough.. then its unattractive.. If you can kick my ass which is highly unlikely.. and grown ass men find it difficult in numbers, I don't find that unattractive.. Little girls find that unattractive. . but if your gonna act like a man around me, That feels pretty gay.., I'm not into dating dudes, even ones who have a vagina. I like submissive women.. and I don't need your approval or someone elses to enjoy Ladies. real Ladies. not just females, but women who embrace being a women. so I think you got it twisted. I could take your preferences and flip them upside down.. do you like chicks who weigh 50 pounds more than you do. Do you like it when they talk to you like a dude.. and don't shave their armpits.. everyone has preferences.. if you like that hard rock on that women. embrace it.. but Im far from a softy who will be dominated by a man , because he likes strong women, or a strong women.. Nope. I like who I like. there's nothing rational about it. IT is Genetically ingrained in me. If i have to make calculations about someone , to think about whether I like them or not.. then I don't like them.. I either am attracted to you or I am not attracted to you.

[Browneye57]

You just keep beating this to death don't you? Why don't you give it a rest and just go on with your life. No one really cares. Surely not about YOUR wife or girlfriend, or whatever she is. She's YOURs, enjoy her at your best. It doesn't matter what strangers on the internet like. In fact, it's completely irrelevant, unless you're saying your opinion is going to be swayed by what the majority response is. In other words, YOU are the weak one.

But to answer your points specifically:
1. What is a 'won beauty standards'? Should that be 'one'? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Men, as a general rule, are not super attracted to manly muscles. They're more keyed to reproductive queues, like large breasts and hips. Large muscles is a manly thing. And the truth is, the more a woman tries to be like a man the less desirable she is to them.
2. Men are simply not threatened by women. PERIOD. Unless she's literally going to beat the crap out of him because of her muscles. This is just a really stupid comment and notion.
3. Attraction and desire at not 'societal stereotypes'. Again, you have this moronic notion about it all. Guys like what they like, it's not a 'stereotype'.
4. A body builder competitor woman doesn't 'hurt their male ego'. He may or may not be attracted to her, but it's not about his ego, it's about ATTRACTION and DESIRE.

What is even more important than HIS attraction, is HERS. Does SHE want HIM? That's what gets a guy going. For without that nothing is going anywhere fast.

You really need to get off this and move along with your life. You wasted WAY too much time whining about what people like or don't like relative to your body builder woman. SERIOUSLY.

[vald9inches]

I dont mind a bit of muscles on a girl as long its not over done... One thing i do notice on female body builders is that their boobs completely disappear and to me personally its not very attractive... I love my boobs! Its honestly not anything about intimidation for me personally its about what is feminine to me. Evolutionary speaking an average guy can easily overpower a muscular girl because of biology. Nature made males that way because men hunted giant wooly mammoths for hundreds of miles and other dangerous game so we were made tougher and more athletic to survive such things. While the women gathered food and took on other less dangerous work because they had the most critical responsibility of making sure the offspring survived and that is why nature made them to easily store fat around their body. Ta ra! Sexy feminine curves! Lol so ig my answer would be evolution made us like what we like! But evolution also makes room to try different things and everyone is different and likes different things so you and your girlfriend just enjoy and be happy! Don't pay attention to other people's judgments and what is "normal" just be happy with who you guys are 😊

[Anonymous]

Yes, you are seeking validation for you and your partner and have been doing so off and on here at GAG for a very long time. That is what people are put off by.

No one really cares if a woman wants to look masculine. That is her choice and there is nothing wrong with it. But when you ask why people don't find it attractive over and over and over again, it does get annoying after a while.

It's pure human nature for women to find masculine features attractive and for men to find feminine features attractive. And it's also natural for people to find it less attractive when a man goes out of his way to appear feminine or a woman goes out of her way to appear masculine. You can't expect people to find it attractive because it goes against their nature. That doesn't mean it's wrong or bad, just a little unnatural. But don't ask people to tell you it's attractive or that they appreciate it. Most never will, and that's fine too.

You are indeed seeking validation and that is obvious to everyone here. Just be yourself and stop trying to get everyone to tell you you are attractive. Just know it's okay for you and that's all that matters, and leave everyone else alone.

[CaliGirlBH]

If that's what you want go for it you can do what you want and don't need to please anyone but yourself.
My Fiancé is a personal trainer he does power lifting, cross fit and a little body building. His body is perfect to me.
I've seen women in the gym that are sometime more muscular than men and women aren't able to build muscle mass like a man with out some kind of help. Women don't have the testosterone to gain muscle mass as men do.
However, if a woman wants to bodybuild go for it, it doesn't mean anything other than that's what you love doing. I would never look at anyone and judge them for how they choose to live their life.

[Rachelspiks]

Well, in my view some women just go too far, and end up looking far too masculine. Moderation I think is key. For example, this one looks really attractive -

[WowwGirl]

She is pretty

[Somegirl678]

because it looks manly lol, like this not much else to debate about. men should be masculine and women should be feminine. if ur trans or gay then thats different but dont expect normal straight people to appreciate stuff like that.

[WowwGirl]

Yesssss girl🌺

[Asker]

Strange that you decided my gender on the basis of your assumptions

[Dchrls78104]

@Somegirl678 this is true.

[boxxie2002]

If men should be masculine and women feminie, the does that men men should men jobs and women should women's work?

A girl might get too muscular if she works in a job other than behind a desk?

"If you're Trans or gay that's different"... very politically correct... so the woman can be muscular if she's gay, but not straight, or if she identifies as male, but looks female to others?

[whatever932]

Nope, masculinity and femininity is behaviour

And being muscular, skinny or fat is physical appearance and health condition

And I personally love strong women with abs and all

But however women building their body like a body builder using testosterone hormones and stuff is a turn off for me bcoz it away the womanly look

Women can have female abs and still be feminine

[wingattebaby16]

to me, men are intimidated by a muscular woman, especially in the bedroom.

other women are jealous that a woman can work out that much and look so hot! and often get the Hottest men!

it comes down to unhappiness with your own body image and self esteem.

How many men, after watching porn, think their penis is too small and thin? How man women become Size Queens when they learn there are men out there that are not gigantic 5" monsters? (heheheh)

Ultimately, if someone does not appreciate how a muscular woman looks, they can either work out and look that way themselves, or accept the woman loves herself and that is what she wants to look like.

[whatever932]

Intimidated? No

For me muscular women are a turn on

But women on steroids and hormones are a turn off

[Joshua_L_Blackmon]

Why would dudes like muscuar women over, big breast women , or big ass women.. its a preference , so like 1 in 200 million women could probably kick my ass in a one on one fight, because they have a black belt or something.. i don't go in the bed room with a women and think.. Im totally about to kick this chicks ass and if i can kick her ass ill like her.. LMAO what kind of logic, emotional or genetic is that.. thats a type of man , and he's the least loved type on the surface of the planet. suspicion of such activity gets the cops called on his house. Im dominate. thats just who I am. if im in a relationship with someone.. im not intimidated by them and if they want to dominate me, i can open the door and close it.. and 2 things will happen.. i find someone who loves me for me and she finds the cuck she wanted.

[hahahmm]

I like some muscle... just not man sized bulky. Bulky plus well defined is the worst. When a woman has low body fat she starts looking just like a dude with implants to me. The square butt, man face? Legs that look like chicken drumsticks? No thanks. And I don't like extremes at either end. If she looks too weak to pick up a coffee mug that's nasty to me too.

You know that sucky show Supergirl? No, I don't watch it, but when the supergirl actress has on her muscle suit, I think that level of muscle looks nice. But it's NOT required at all for me to find a woman physically attractive. I also dated women who had some muscle bulk on the arm but you wouldn't even know if it was fat or muscle without squeezing it. Was still good to me.

Back to the extreme... if a woman is well defined and bulky I'm just going to assume she's on roids. That's nasty for a lot of reasons and she really is trying to turn herself into a dude whether she knows it or not.

[hahahmm]

To get more to what you're asking: it's not fear or whatever. It's just not attractive to me. Same reason why I don't date 450 pound women.

[OlderAndWiser]

I am almost 67 years old and the kind of women who I consider to be attractive now is almost identical to the kind of women I considered to be attractive in 1970 (ecept that the women are older now.) I am not attracted to muscular women. It is not a conscious decision and it is certainly not a judgment that I am passing in them. I am simply not attracted. It is not the result of thinking about it and processing the arguments pro and con; it is a subconscious process that seems to have formed many decades ago and which has not changed since then.

[RagnarRedbeard]

Most people are attracted to fit people, as long as they look natural.

A woman as muscular as your wife uses steroids. It’s impossible for a woman, or even a man, to naturally build that amount of muscular size with such a low body fat percentage without them. Which means that it’s unnatural.

Most normal women aren’t attracted to men who are unnaturally big because of steroid use either.

Most of the other arguments are dumb. Societal stereotypes, threat to masculinity, male ego etc. Whenever men aren’t interested in something those are the go-to explanations, but we can simply not be attracted to something just because it’s not attractive.

[JCrockett]

It's simply not very attractive, but it depends on a lot. There's a level of fitness that looks great. And it depends on other ways the girl might convey masculinity. If she's very feminine but has abs, that's fine. If she's not that muscly but dresses like a dude, that's bad. It all depends. And that's fine. Beauty standards are standards because they're derived from natural preferences. Nothing wrong with that. And that doesn't mean there aren't outliers.

For me, it really comes down to the shoulders. Broad, muscly shoulders or deltoid on a girl are a huge turnoff for me, but basically any other (naturally attainable) muscle mass is take it or leave it.

[NetSapien]

My opinion, porn.

Porn has perpetuated such a nasty expectation for what women's bodies 'should' look like that it's become engrained into the social consciousness of what a pretty woman should look like. And it's been harmful to everyone really.

I've known many guys that will say no to tuna caves landscaped with a jungle bush.

With the amount of wet noodles that claim to be male in today's society, I really really do not think there's an expectation that muscles are a masculine only trait.

[hahahmm]

The fact tv shows with female leads depicted as being able to defeat any man get low ratings suggest that society doesn't expect women to have lots of muscle. Biology doesn't either so it's very difficult for a woman to bulk up. And even when they do they still aren't as strong as a dude with a similar look.

[NetSapien]

@hahahmm hmm, I see what you're saying. I think these are 2 different phenomena tho.

In regard to what's been going on with TV's depiction of women, I feel that production companies are disservicing the hard work and training many real world women endure to achieve the level of skill they well deserve. In movies and TV shows, the 'tough' women depicted tend to magically spawn with these abilities in the world. There's no journey, no hard work, no training, no struggles, no pain.. they just exist as is. This is unfair and a mockery to those individual women in the real world that truly know that skill earned requires a ton of sweat, pain, and sometimes even blood and tears.

I feel that the negative ratings are due to the ridiculous notion suggesting that these 'depicted women' be considered as realistic role-models or that this is something able to be aspired to while simultaneously not showing the effort it truly takes and the benefit of sacrificing to obtain it. Add to that the production company's 'responses' to critical arguments about their product tend to take the form of misogynism claims help fuel a certain disdain for the industry.

There are many examples of muscular women in film and TV that are loved and respected from Cory Everson in the 90s to Gina Carrera and Ronda Rousey, so I don't think I necessarily agree with the assertion you made about society not expecting women to have lots of muscle.

[hahahmm]

Agree with your tv point. But I'd also point out that female Olympic athletes in most competitions were always considered hot in my lifetime... they could have muscular legs or arms required to do their sport except the really bulky ones doing lifts. I don't remember ever hearing a guy saying he was a fan of that -- sure, such guys exist but the numbers aren't high at all. I bet the viewing ratings would reflect that too.

[NetSapien]

@hahahmm perhaps.. and I think we share that 'lifetime' as I agree with you there.

Perhaps my perspective is also influence by the fact I too was into body building myself in the 90s and 2k.

[TheUniqueOne96]

Because it doesn't look as feminine and a lot of guys prefer their women to look feminine.

Women don't like it if a guy is 'smother than them' downstairs or on their body, has more perfect eyebrows than them or wears tighter fitting clothes than them, why, because it makes them feel a bit awkward, because they want to be the feminine one.

I do appreciate muscles on anyway, why, because I know that to achieve it, you generally have to put a lot into it and I respect the effort, but it doesn't mean I don't find it attractive aesthetically, if it's over the top for my liking, just like women don't like over the top muscles on guys.

[Alexandrubaschet08]

womans whit muscle look like monsters
The seem to change from a woman aperence to a male one whitch make it even more disgusting.
Ther are not reson for a woman to have muscle and be a body builder one, womans body had never been created to have so much muscle.
The look unsightly, it is a very strong contrast between their figure and the body.
Stop asking such question you and your wife and keep it for yourself.
The number of womans who do body building is extremly small same for guys who do dancing and feminin sports.

[Vikkrram]

Coz Sir, Bodybuilding is a sports that were earlier made or let's say pre dominant for women. Now a days we have seen the women's are also taking actively part in it, and wining trophies.

It's like starting a new trend or ritual. And in history we have witnessed that new things have been always opppsed by the society. So this is also a part of it. In mine opinion

[Vikkrram]

Pre dominant for men

[humpbackjack]

Man you’re coming off like you’re butt hurt you’re automatically attacking any male that doesn’t find a muscular woman attractive by implying their opinions must be centered on their insecurities their lack of masculinity or a week male ego not every man is going to be attracted to your woman for me personally I find a lot of different types of women attractive and mainly one type of woman attractive and that one type has to do with their inner spirit I prefer a softer sweet nice kind giving a ideal motherly type with a whole lot of secret freak but of course somethings got to draw me in and I’m attracted to not too skinny not too heavy they can be muscular but not too muscular I’m not tripping on race really I like pale soft skin not sickly pale too green not too short and probably 6 foot max but the inner spirit can change all this

[FinalFantasyBro]

They just doesn't look visually pleasing to the eye, it just like seeing men who are wearing skirts with a tons of makeup on their face doesn't look visually pleasing to the eyes. But everyone should be able to choose to become or be with anyone they see fit, other men can love female bodybuilders all they want, but big muscular women isn't sexy to me.

I think these women in the pictures I posted are extremely gorgeous and fit. Not only are they working out having a healthy and fit body, they still have their pretty feminine physic.

Why are all your points tilting slightly into the negative spectrum. No disrespect but all your points are just straw-man arguments. Majority of men are biologically attracted to feminine traits such as short frame, gentle voices, small hands, kind and submissive behavior etc.

Most of us are simply not attracted to muscles cause it makes women look more masculine, that's all for the majority of us. Is there a small portion of men that feel threatened by a more masculine woman? Sure, but that's not the case for most of us, we're are biologically drawn to feminine girls. It's really that simple.
