Do skinny guys prefer curvy or skinny females?

[Ingrid422]

My boyfriend is 6"1' and 150 pounds, so he's very lean. He's got some muscles so he's not stick thin though.

I'm 5"7' and my weight is 123 pounds at its lowest. It went up to 128 after a few outdoorsy weekends spent eating junk. every time I gain a few pounds, I feel fat and worry that my bf's not gonna like how my body is turning out. My instinct tells me that being a man and being as thin as he is, he must prefer some curve. At the same time, I don't feel very comfortable when I gain a little weight even though I remain below 130 pounds :(

5 pounds of weight is practically the difference between an empty stomach in the morning and a full stomach after supper. Don't worry too much about the numbers themselves. He's seriously not going to notice.

I'm 6'2" and 160lb. I love skinny girls. Like, a lot.

But there is quite a window for what's attractive for me, ESPECIALLY if I'm already in a relationship with the girl. I'll certainly allow room for changes in eating and activity. Seriously, nobody is perfect. Here's an idea of my limits:

Skinniest: Cameron Diaz

Curviest: Kate Winslet

Ideal: Zooey Deschanel. Natalie Portman.

Think more about the weights than the appearances. I think Kate is way hotter than Cameron.

(Oddly enough, over 90% of people used to fit within these boundaries. Now, probably only 30% do.)

But men don't go crazy if you gain or lose a few pounds. A problem arises if you don't lose the baby weight after having the baby. (Supposedly quite common in the US, from what I hear.) Or something similarly big.

So that would have to be a pretty big change. Kinda like coming home and finding that your skinny Boyfriend how has a beer belly and a receding hair line. But you who he isn't going to do that any time soon. In the same way, you won't have to worry any time soon. You're weight seems fine to me.

That’s completely different. A women who had a human grow inside of her has an excuse to gain weight and very hard to get rid off vs the husband that didn’t have a human grow inside that and prob just drank a lot of beer to get that beer belly 🤡

I'm athletic, and I'd prefer either curvy or skinny honestly.

I doubt he's really noticing the weight change, especially not as much as you are. As for what guys like, that's up to the individual. Science says the male brains wired to find it attractive when a woman's body looks like it can successfully handle having children, which is one explanation for liking curves.

My boyfriend is tall and lean. Seeing him shirtless for the first time was like that scene out of Crazy, Stupid, Love where Emma Stone's character goes home with Ryan Gosling's. I used to stress myself out to the point of getting physically sick because my weight fluctuates close to my period. My boyfriend only ever noticed I wasn't feeling good, and if he noticed more, bless him for not making me feel fat. He actually asked me not to work on getting those "perfect" abs so much because he likes my body softer than that.

Chances are, you are doing just fine. Obviously, he liked what he saw to begin with, and five pounds isn't a huge deal when you're healthy and can maintain your weight. He thinks you're beautiful, let that give you some confidence and own it :)

It totally depends on the individual's taste, not what their body type is. Personally I prefer curvy
