I don't care for either one of these examples, actually. The first guy is obvious; he has too much body fat and not enough muscle. The second guy actually doesn't have enough muscle and he is shredded to a level that is concerning. His body fat is too low.

But hey, listen. Here's some thoughts for you. When I personally see a guy who is obese, I see someone who may have something deeper than just an eating or exercise issue going on. Maybe he was abused. Maybe he has a hormonal issue that is undiagnosed. Maybe he was not educated about health and nutrition. It doesn't make him less of a person. I might not feel attracted to him, but that's just me. It doesn't define his worthiness overall. Plenty of overweight guys are happily married, maybe not to a supermodel, but to someone who sees them.

When I see a guy who is shredded with an unsustainably low body fat percentage, I see someone who might be feeling insecure about whether or not they are good enough. I see someone who has put a lot of effort into how they appear, but not necessarily into themselves. I just want to tell them, Remember you are a person! Who you are is what matters! Not how cut your muscles are or how large... certain body parts... are. Who you are as a person, and your security in your worth, right now, is what is attractive.

I care about a man taking care of himself. Obesity is not taking care of himself. Rail-thin, insanely low BFPs are not taking care of himself. Eating healthy, buying quality food, going to the doctor, a regular, sustainable workout plan (maybe with some PR goals), drinking plenty of water, and engaging in healthy hobbies and interests... That is taking care of himself. It's not obsessive, or about what people (or women) think. It's about being responsible with what he has. But that's just my perspective.

Are we talking to just oogle on a beach... well yeah the fit body. But if its for a relationship the body becomes much less important than who the man really is.

Most women prefer more fit men. Almost anyone with the exception of people with a medical condition can be fit. A lot of people just don’t choose to be.

It’s the same witn women who are morbidly obese. But want a 7 foot tall chiseled abs man with a large penis. But she can’t even exercise or eat right herself. A lot of people like that become very disappointed.

Same with neckbeards who want a girl whose a smoking hot 10. But brushing his teeth is too hard

Gymcels are disgusting.

I wouldn't exactly say I'm glad with my body as it is now, but I used to like it when I was super skinny. Skinny is the best way for a guy to be. Then dad-bod. Meat-cloud is dead last.

How about someone just being a genuinely good person? Who won’t cheat or lie or waste your time? How about that?

Dad bod, especially with those 2 examples.

Personally I would have to go for the first guy... At least he looks more human.

At this point in my life, idc as long as he is provides, had ambition, and has a plan.  Having a hot body won’t put food on the table. lol

I hit the gym 4-5 days per week specifically because I want that fit bod. Miss me with that dad bod, honestly.

Dad bods are a little odd in my age demographic. I guess I prefer fit or slim

I prefer to be healthy. I really don't care about my bod. I workout everyday for health, f*** vanity! You either accept me or you don't you either find me attractive or you don't. Either way I'm not going to worry about it.👍
