Guys do you find "normal" bodies attractive?

[Anonymous]

By normal I mean not fat but also not photoshopped or like the tiny waist massive ass instagram model type.

I'm asking because I was at a friends house the other night and he had this calendar of some rowing team and well obviously the girls were all athletes, but the images also showed their flaws. So very different from from the polished playboy type of thing. And I might be the superficial American in me, but wouldn't have thought a guy would prefer to hang up that on his wall than the polished model type. But then I'm wondering if he was the exception?

Those are some of the pics. You can find more on facebook it's the warwick girls rowing team

And a very similar project from oxford

The guys by the way have calendar as well and I think they're frigging hot. But still I wonder if guys feel the same way about athletic but not photoshopped women or models?

[Bandit74]

Depends on which girl, some of them are much better proportioned than others. Overall tho, the girls seem closer to average than the guys do. Most of the guys could pass for male models while half of those girls I wouldn't have guessed were athletes if I wasn't specifically told so. There are lots of girls who have nearly identical bodies who rarely to never play sports.

Models are kinda hit or miss with me. I'm not really into the exaggerated look with the tiny waist and huge fake looking ass and boobs. For the most part the faces of models appeal to me more than their bodies but there are models who are unbelievably attractive all around.

[BertMacklinFBI]

the girls in your example aren't anywhere near instagram girl status, so I guess they could be considered more normal.

but those guys aren't even what the average male looks like, well not in the states at least.

[suseel_sushi]

yeah those waxers with chiseled bodies. so normal😂😂

[Asker]

well they're both athletes of the same sports at the same college...

[Asker]

Maybe it's just that we have more unrealistic expectation of what athletic women look like than we do of athletic men

[LovelyComputerVirus]

Girls: butts... Butts everywhere...
Guys: not a single man booty to be found.
Sexism at its finest.

Happy now?

[LovelyComputerVirus]

Very nice, thank you

[Asker]

I was trying to keep the nudity down. Don't know how strict they are here

[LovelyComputerVirus]

Guy butts are awesome though... Who would take that down?

[Riggers]

@LovelyComputerVirus So showing girl butts is sexism, but showing guy butts is awesome?, k...

[LovelyComputerVirus]

@Riggers inequality = sexism. There were girl butts not butts, but it was supposed to be a joke.

[Zamac]

Normal bodies are normally attractive, hmmm? Those full of effects pictures pin-up-hotties-or-whateva are just too fake. The real deal IS the real deal! :)

[ksoma]

sometimes. depends on the girl.

[LeFrogDog]

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. What is "normal" except what the businesses set.

[Tanuron]

I used to put dragons, skeletons/reapers and such on my walls instead of any girls or naked ones, still do, lol. But of course, obviously guys like all kinds though. But the pics above aren't all normal / natural , nor is it the "normal" as on average body type, not for women nor men. But yeah, overall say a "fat" girl would always be more desired by more guys than a "fat" guy would ever be. Girls really dont have anything to worry about like that.

[Wolfgangwarner]

i like my girls like i like my steak, with a little bit of fat on the ends lol but seriously i would perfer a girl with a little extra i dont really go for the bone thin i can see your ribs look i like the girl who isn't fat or even chubby but has a bally and thighs and hips

[Riggers]

Haha, All the girls in the pictures are just normal women, And all the guys are uber athletic fitness models and shit, Haha. This question is so damn hypocritical.

[Asker]

well they're both athletes of the same sports at the same college... Persumably working out similar amounts Maybe it's just that we have more unrealistic expectation of what athletic women look like than we do of athletic men

[Riggers]

No, They are definitely not doing similar workouts, Look at some of the girls in that picture, They have visible fat rolls, Most likely just eat what they want and play sports for fun, And look at all the guys, Who have clearly been going to the gym for years on high protein diets and shit to look like that. It is funny, You consider these girls bodies ''normal'', Which i agree are normal bodies, But, You also say the guys below are ''frigging hot'', But those guys are definitely not normal, Thats was serious years worth of excersize and muscle training ends up as. Most guys you dont really see their abs, They just have flat stomachs and stuff. It just seems a little bit hypocritical you are calling upon these normal women bodies to get some appreciation, Whilst at the same time making it out like only the 'superior' men are hot, (Im not saying their not, but... THose guys are clearly not ''normal''.)

[Asker]

"Who have clearly been going to the gym for years" yes I assume that's what it takes to get into a competetive college sports team, for either gender. Women are supposed to have more fat. I said both genders are athletic and both aren't professional models, just normal college athletes. Both aren't edited and both don't get paid to look a certain way. I used to row as well and I've seen plenty of guys like that.

[Asker]

well actually I didn't say any of that, I just said the guys rowing team has calendar as well, which they do and they look liike that. Make out of that what you want

[Riggers]

Look, If you compare those girls in those pictures, To actual models, They look nothing like each other,

Whereas if you compare those guys, To actual male models, They're pretty much the same thing.

The fact they are ''trained that way for rowing'' or ''theyre obviously gonna be like that because their athletes'' is regardless, My point is, These men, Are NOT average men, They are EXTREMELY physically fit and muscular men, They in no way shape or form represent the AVERAGE man.

If you want an example of what an Average man looks like, Its probably something like this :
https://i.imgur.com/BdV0ymh.jpg

Notice how he's not fat, but he's not skinny, he's not weak, but he's not jacked, Thats an average guy, Just as those girls are average gals.

The dudes in that picture, Whilst not actual models, COULD be passed off as models, The females likely could not.

[Asker]

I never said anything about them being average

[Riggers]

I am just saying, I think it is silly to make a question about how guys should find these normal girls attractive, And then immediately after you state that your version of attractive men are borderline models... Like... Seems hypocritical thats all. I know you never directly said those men are average, But... The entire question was about finding average things attractive, Which you have stated you do not by saying you find these model like guys attractive, So... yeah...

[AleDeEurope]

Well, normal bodies tend to be average, so though I don't dislike them, I don't really prefer them. They're just ok.

And by the way, those guys aren't even close to average xD

[Asker]

Both groups aren't average, both are athletic They're athletes from the same team, at the same college of the same sport, presumably doing similar amounts and kinds of exercise, with different results between genders

[MarauderW]

Listen, there is no perfect man or woman. The best thing that you can do is take care of your body, love it and treat it well. If you find a boy who loves you for who you are then that is all that matters right?

I know materialism is at an all time high, but don't ignore the fact that your body is unique to you. My girl has unique features to her body as well and I love her for it, and I didn't know she had them before.

So in short, yeah, normal girls that love you is all that we can hope and dream for.

[Mesonfielde]

Those guys look like they work out 5 hours every day, lol.

The women though... finally, some sexy-looking bodies, not like those completely unappealing anorexic supermodel types! FINALLY!

I'll never understand why the modelling agencies managed to get one of the least attractive body types to be the most popular.

[Asker]

Well they might, I don't how much they work out in warwick

[GingerGuy]

Guys usually find "normal" bodies much more attractive because they're real. Most prefer it with the possible exception of very young guys who are still kind of immature.

[TadCurious]

I love how "real" girls look. And I know that so many of the photos we see of celebs and models are fake. I think those girls' bodies in the rowing team pics are attractive. They look like girls look in real life, which is better than a photoshopped fantasy.

[Prof_Don]

Yes, I do find those women of the rowing team & soccer team attractive. :)

Those are NOT normal dudes, those are all male models. Cmon u can't be THAT naive.

[Asker]

No they're the male rowing team, they bring out a calendar every year And that's rubgy, not soccer

[Asker]

Maybe this shows more different bodies but I still think they're all very attractive

s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/.../...8532716cc1.jpg

[Alan180188]

well, they are natural and not fake so of course yes !

[archiz]

they look pretty hot to me though

[Other_Tommy_Wiseau]

no. we only date models

[MrTexan37]

of course normal bodies are great

[suseel_sushi]

don't compare your body with others' if you're not gonna become a model or actress. my father didn't leave my mother when aishwarta rai sported her size zero looks.

[Trenhard_]

Who would want to be normal?

[Polocrew]

Nahhhh not normies

[Prince_teddy4u]

Of course... Yes
