Do any men ACTUALLY prefer thin/petite bodies?

I know guys here like to be nice and say that bodies/looks don't matter but obviously they do. I am 5'5", with 33"-24"-36" measurements. I wear a bra size 30DD (not as big as it sounds- just means I have a 27" ribcage and 33" chest). My boyfriend claims to like my body, but how can he? All over magazines, and all over message boards I see women and men alike saying that men all want a woman who looks like Kim Kardashian--and while I know my boyfriend finds me attractive, there's no way he wouldn't PREFER a bigger chest and a bigger butt. I hate feeling like a man, especially because I have very narrow hips (my butt is all in the back, not the sides.) I spend hours every week at the gym lifting to get my butt bigger, and eating to make my breasts bigger. I hate looking like this. Are there any men who actually PREFER this kind of body type--not tolerate it, but prefer it? I would ask my boyfriend but I know how low confidence isn't exactly a turn-on. I feel like my body type is only preferred by gay fashion designers.

  • I am attracted to a wide range of female body types, and have dated girls across a wild range and been happy with all of them. But if I had to pick a favorite, it would be petite girls, and while you might be an inch taller than that technically, I think overall you'd fit that description.

    And I absolutely would be happy with your body. Most petite girls don't have as big of boobs or butts as you do, so I promise you that no one is complaining. And, no, not everyone wants Kim K (I think her body is fine, though it IS a bit extreme for such a tiny girl).

    You really have nothing to worry about.

  • Sorry to say but I too prefer big breast and butts, but when you like someone you really start liking everything about that person.

    So, may be your boyfriend loves bigger, and you may doubt - "but how can he?", but there is no wonder if he likes your body, cause he likes you. and that's what counts.

  • we are almost the exact same size ha ha I'm 17 I weigh 45 kg and I'm 167cm tall an di'm a size 8DD/10DD which is a 30DD haha. that so weird except I have an hourglass figure a really thin waist but I have a nice curve at my hips and my boobs. a lot of guys love my body they always touche me and hug me ha ha but I'm only 17 an dteh guys I'm around are 16-17-18 and they like all body at that age I guess. don't worry about anything a guy says! that the perfect size it's the size of most supermodels. and if our boobs were any bigger we would look fake ha ha :)

  • i get self conscious sometimes too with all the bottom curvy love going on lol its all about big, round bums and wider hips.

    well, I'm definitely not thin or skinny, but I'm petite 5'3, and I don't have curvy hips or a curvy butt. my butt isn't literally flat but it doesn't stick out much either. and I have big boobs. I know some guys are attracted to me but I know they would love it more if I had some more junk in the trunk. oh well, that's life.

  • At 5'5, you aren't petite...petite is 5'4 and under actually. It's being small

    But some do

    I feel like this is an attempt to hear guys bash other body types...but I'm not sure why you'd believe strangers on here but not your bf

  • What you speak of is incredibly attractive to me- I gravitate to girls who have a smaller/more petite body and should they have dark features/dark hair and a certain "bookish" or "coquettish" vibe about them then more often than not I find myself melting into a puddle of good.

    While I appreciate the more full figured women out there I will always go for the ones with the thinner/petite bodies. So count me as one of those you believe do not exist.

    • *goo - Mind the typo

  • I do. I want a girl small enough to be able to grab her boobs while I'm hugging her! Love the petite ladies.

    • I might also add that the girl I'm trying to get now is something 34-29-38, and she's had a kid.

  • It's up to individual taste. Different guys like different things. A lot of guys prefer your body type. But a lot of others don't. I don't think any guy would ever consider that body type UNattractive, but I will say there may be others, depending on taste, that they find MORE attractive.

  • If you're slim there's a good chance you're some guys ideal.

    Some guys genuinely like thin with breasts best.

    Some genuinely like petite best.

    Some genuinely like long legs best.

    Some like hourglass best

    Some like slim with an ass best.

    Most guys find most of the above pretty attractive though. It's like askig girls if they like thin with a bit of muscle or more 'moderately muscular' or athletic best? They might have a preference but have probably drooled over all three.

  • You're kidding me, yes?

    • No..with women like Sofia Vergara, Kim Kardashian covering all the men's magazines...I find it really hard to believe that men don't look at me and say "oh well, that'll do"

  • "my boyfriend claims to like my body, but how can he?"

    Because he's your f*cking boyfriend, that's how! No dude dates a woman who has a body he doesn't like. smh...

  • I know how you feel. I'm pretty small myself, a little smaller than you. Although I have ginormous hips. Some guys out there do like that kind of body, since you have a boyfriend and all. He probably loves your body!

    • Thanks- I'm glad there are other girls out there who feel the way I do. Good proof I'm not totally insane lol

    • I have a friend who's even smaller than you - she's 5'1" and 95 pounds, stick skinny and she has a boyfriend too! Hahah :P You aren't insane. I always get jealous of those girls with the big boobs and perfect ass :\

    • I like slender girls..got any Tin Roof?...(:(:(:

    • Show All
  • Well I can say that I don't like bigger chest's, and butts. They actually turn me off. But you'll find that not all guys are into what's shown all over the place. There are guys who are into way huge women, and others' that are into nothing but skin and bones.

  • Seriously? Guy way prefer your body type over KK. Most girls think they can pull that off, but in reality they are just borserline fat chicks.

  • I'm sure some men do, but I am not one of them.

  • I just don't care what size boobs the girl I want to date has , that is because to me and many other men find all boob sizes are all equally sexy, because boobs are boobs. I want to date a girl for her personality , not her body. I want to date a girl that has the following: big heart, mature, kind, polite, and has an amazing personality. All that matters is in the inside not the outside (this can apply to both genders).

  • In truth...you sound hot! I definitely prefer skinny/lean girls. I love my girlfriend because I can hold an entire butt cheek in my hand, and fit her little breasts in my mouth with room to spare.

    Coupled with her skinny waist She's my hot little spinner!

  • Guys like curves. It is in our blood. So, I think your guy is sincere when he says that he likes your body.

  • It's actually girls who say men like thick chicks because they don't want to watch their diet... I will never date a fatty

  • Honestly I prefer women with smaller hips and don't like if their breasts are to big, maybe it is because I'm a 26 waist (have to buy all my pants online 26,32 is hard to find lol) so I'm sure it's possible that your boyfriend does prefer your body type.

  • I'd say you should take a shot of your self in a bikini without your face and post it, but judging from how many responses you've gotten and how few you've replied to I'm guessing that's unlikely to go anywhere.

  • You have big boobs and a thin body? what are you complaining about? lack of hips? doesn't every girl wants to be skinny with big boobs?

    • Umm I use to fit women for bras, a 30DD is quite small.

  • Blah blah blah we like really fat girls blah blah great original question blah blah
