| Intimidated by contacting muscular and athletic guys .. ..Is there a need to be ??
Posted: 2/17/2006 3:00:45 PM | Hi, I'm new here, but, would like to pitch in my 2 cents.
I want yall to picture a stool. A stool needs at least three legs to stand on to be stable. If one of those legs are missing, then, that poor stool would just fall over, no matter how strong the other two legs are. Now, like a stool, a well-balanced person needs to put equal emphasis on his or her physical, mental and spiritual well-being. when one of those "legs" is too over-developed compared to the other two,
sooner or late, he/she will fall flat on his/her face. Thus, we have the "muscleheads with no brain ogres", the "pencil neck geeks" and the "scumbag politicians" 
So, ladies (and gentlemen for that matter, especially those who are intimidated by an attractive woman), why should you be intimidated by a handsome face or a shredded body? Look beyond the physical shell and determine for yourselves if the person you are interested in possesses the other qualities that make him a complete person, not a cartoon.  So, he may have the physical goods, but, you may have other intangibles that make you as attractive as he is. Besides, different folks, different strokes, you just never know until you try.
Thanks for reading. | |

I agree with you....I was thinking the same thing. The term "under 200 pounds" is kind of vague. How far below 200 pounds are we talking about here? 195? 175? 140? Unless a woman is 6'2" and big boned, anything close to 200 pounds is not average......I'm not saying that a woman can't look good at a heavier weight, but it's definately not average... | |

Posted: 2/19/2006 10:19:17 AM | I, for one am not intimidated by muscular/athletic guys. I like the way they look, I appreciate the fact that work hard to attain and maintain it...it floats my boat...the downer comes when some of these babes open their mouths...
However, I have met a number that were really smart and funny..and not at all stuck on themselves!!! It seems that because of the way they look they often do not get approached by women that are interestest in their brains. I want it all!! Someone with a great smile, a nice physique, a charm you can't ignore, charisma...and a truly smart-as-hell mind. In other words, I want to be attracted to a man on all levels...the way he looks, the way he thinks and the way he treats me.
A lot of men like women that are curvy, attractive and smart. I have yet to go out on a date where someone pulled out the scale to see what my BMI is. My thought: if there is mutual attraction, what's the BFD? And why should I let someone elses opinion of me count more than my own opinion of me. I would never enter a LTR with someone who would scrutinize my weight constantly. And as a curious aside, Marilyn Monroe was a size 14....need I say more?
Write anyone you darned well please, and if they don't write back, don't take it personally.
 Happy to be me!

For the record, "average body" these days means about 10 pounds overweight. If you think about Americans, you'll know what I mean.
Also, I think the tummy that you're talking about is kind of cute. | |

Posted: 2/20/2006 5:54:23 PM | | No you should not feel intimidated by thier personal descriptions as everybodys attraction is based on thier own perspective. Just because a person is tall does not mean they will find somebody that is short unattractive. I think the same applies to most differences that we will encounter with each other in a physical sense. I personally find peoples personality traits as the main indicator for why I connect or dont. | |

Posted: 2/20/2006 6:06:32 PM | If the muscular fellow is a good decent man I would not feel intimidated, anyway. I'm quite muscular myself, so I'm not bothered at all by muscles.
As the previous poster said everyone has their own different idea of what is attractive physically and in personality.
Here's a scenario to consider in my own case: A "gorgeous" guy who turns out to be a conservative Republican is someone I would walk away from because he does not share my values and beliefs. It would not work in the long run, so what would be the point of even being with the guy even though we don't have the same values?
BUT another woman would love both his looks and values, so theres quite a bit of truth to the "there's someone out there for everybody."
Happy fishing

Posted: 3/9/2006 11:58:38 AM | I do... I guess, I picture in my head the strong muscular guys, with a slender, built, muscular, female...
I feel very intimidated about myself. I also have the tummy rolls, and I weigh more than I would like, etc. I am NOT fit by no means...
I guess being with someone who prides themselves on being toned...scares me. I am NOT toned... I have my jiggles...they don't...
I wonder, are they watching what I am eating? etc.etc. I DON'T calory count, I love my food too much...etc.

Posted: 3/9/2006 8:51:55 PM | | I am not intimidated by muscular men because I am muscular myself. I am hoping to meet someone who will accept me the way I am, because I have broad shoulders, and a muscular frame. I could diet until the cows come home, but I would still have broad shoulders. If I could find a muscular fellow maybe I'd feel better about myself because I often find myself comparing myself to more petite women and wishing I looked like them--even though there's not much I can do about my shape. I don't go to the gym regularly, but am still muscular. I walk quite a bit to stay fit. | |

Sometimes these fit men will say hey! thank you for noticing me!
They like to attract the opposite sex. Which is all good.
(and sometimes, yes sometimes, really, of their own gender).
On the other hand there are those guys who have lost weight got muscular
for reasons of feeling fit and content.
Then there are those with the "I will show the world" attitude.
These people are very vengeful. They get built like Adonis's, but will then not give you the time of day or mistreat you. WHY? They were once seen as invisible and unattracive.
It is their way of getting back at the world and they get a lot of pleasure mistreating there admirers.. That attitude is spooky as hell.
Hey I am slender and fit but I love tall big gals, especially the ones with
wide hips big @ss. It looks awkward but I do not care.
I dated a very tall red haired gal with a voluptuous hour glass figure like I described above.
Dont be afaid to chat with the beefcake. Sometimes I have seen the muscle bound brutes
date regular women. Birds of a feather may noy necessarily flock togeher.
That is Madison Ave horse sh!t. Some men want a lover who appreciates them, they do not want to compete with them. | |

Posted: 3/19/2006 10:00:26 AM | I dont see people for their size or weight. I see them for their outgoing-ness or personality. If you're confident in yourself, if you're happy, enjoy just getting out. I'm not intimidated to message muscular guys, they're just people like everyone else, whats the worst someone can say, no, i'm not interested?
I've always hung out with hot guys and they've been good friends over the years, and i've dated some pretty hot buff guys too. It doesnt intimidate me in the least. Have a little more confidence in yourself and you'll go places. | |

Posted: 3/19/2006 11:46:27 AM | Re: blondegreeneyedgal - Im not talking about the steroetyped muscular airhead,but the muscular guy who is shy,funny and intelligent.
I think there are a lot of shy muscular guys out there because a lot of the guys that lift weights did it because it was something you could do by yourself and didn't need friends or need to be sociable. It is a loner type of activity if you want it to be. | |
