| Are all women only into guys with six pack abs and muscles to the ceiling?... Posted: 1/12/2007 1:57:14 PM | Not all women will only date guys with such toned bodies, you can be sure.
In fact, not one of my ex's has ever thought that my slight belly was an issue; and many of them thought my confidence despite it was all the more attractive!
So as long as you remember, deep inside, that you have a perfect body, you won't need to worry.
The thing about beauty is that it is temporary. An affair based solely on that same beauty is just as temporary.
Metaphysically, there may even be a connection between those two truths...

Oh come on, be real. Women want a hottie and are obsessed with looks every bit if not more than guys are. I'm inclined to think the latter actually. They claim they arent but its just pure hypocrisy. Both men and women on dating sites are superficial, but women are superficial, materialistic and extremely picky on top of it. [The guy has to be a jaw dropping hunk or irrestitably cute to get any attention from women on a dating site like POF.
truly, there are only CERTAIN types of women who feel this way can you guess which type?
translation; don't generalize.. we aren't all like that | |

Personally, I don't care if I get flak for this or not, but there is a certain amount of truth to this---it isn't absolute, in every case, but the ones who get the most attention are the beautiful people. Looks aren't everything, but you normally don't see someone quite good-looking with a partner who is below average in appearance. They are the exceptions, not the rule.
I must admit I'm guilty of completely overlooking women who are overweight or don't take good care of themselves. While I don't expect the women I date to look like Cindy Crawford at her age (who is still a knockout), there has to be some basal chemistry. Otherwise, that primal foundation simply isn't going to work. I am (normally) very physically active, and find it flattering when anyone from a woman I've been seeing, to my physical/massage therapist compliments me. If I was a couch potato, then I wouldn't be as expectant of a partner to have a higher standard for herself, but I'm not.
It implies to women, too. I've even known women to put up with a certain amount of abuse because a guy was "hawt" and other women were after him. | |

| Are all women only into guys with six pack abs and muscles to the ceiling?... Posted: 2/19/2007 11:08:04 PM | | Funny I just put a question askin if it was creepy to put up a pic like that!!! Ill tel lyou what! It dont matter. I havent got anymore responses since I put a pic that made me look good and buff and all that good then when I didnt have that pic. The bottom line is, that if a lady find you attractive she'll make the effort, and if not then you move on. The thing about this site is that you can make contact. its not like a bar where you see a cute girl and then the next minute she's with some guy or gone. Put a pic up. People are attracted to different things and Im sure that you'll find yours. | |

| Are all women only into guys with six pack abs and muscles to the ceiling?... Posted: 2/19/2007 11:18:13 PM | Personally, I find an overly muscled guy very unattractive. Maybe because it makes me suspicious of steriod use, which will affect a guy's perfomance in bed. Also, if a guy is too into his body, it comes accross as rather narcisistic. And, if he's spending that much time at the gym, when would he have time for me?
Nicely toned is one thing, but looking like a body-builder with veins popping out all over kind of grosses me out. | |

Does anyone use steroids anymore? They actually do test for usage in many professional athletic competitions. I'd be scared shitless to use them, from what I've read.
I'm not saying you're taking a personal stab at me, but I'd rather be labeled histronic than someone with little self-respect, physical or otherwise.
Women spend a good portion of their time trying to be healthy too, Snugglemacks. Apparently, you differ, but I'd rather have someone who trains four times a week at the gym than who trashes themselves four times a week at the bar. I tire of meeting women who don't care about their declining health. (And in the UK, from what I understand, young women and alcoholism is reaching critical mass). | |

| Are all women only into guys with six pack abs and muscles to the ceiling?... Posted: 2/19/2007 11:51:43 PM | ^^^ Wow. Lighten up. That was not intended to be a personal bash against you...you asked for opinions, so I gave you mine.
If this is something you enjoy, then by all means go and enjoy it. I'd rather spend my time at the bar (usually sipping a diet coke) and enjoying life. I also enjoy my yoga, bike rides, and healthy cooking....but that's beside the point since I'm not going to assume that your comments were directed at me  | |

Actually, I did quote you, but I assumed you weren't talking just to me in the beginning. Re-read what I wrote.
BTW, diet coke contains aspartame, which by some studies isn't too good for you (there are recorded cases of people having toxic reactions to it), but then again, I drink Southern Comfort on occasion---I suppose that makes us on an even keen, eh?  | |

| Are all women only into guys with six pack abs and muscles to the ceiling?... Posted: 2/20/2007 2:00:14 AM | | Not all woman are shallow.....but some are. I like the teddy bear kinda guys but I mean I'm not gonna meet someone that just doesnt interest me regardless of looks. I think thats most POF guys downfall.....they just don't have anything to talk about and then you dont wanna meet someone you know nothing about or whatnot right ? As for size, yeh it seems pretty important....I've gotten the "wow your bigger in real life" many times sadly enough. Pics dont really matter people see what they want to online. | |

| Are all women only into guys with six pack abs and muscles to the ceiling?... Posted: 2/20/2007 5:04:33 AM | To the OP: You “hardly ever get any responses”, so, obviously, it’s because every woman on the face of the planet is too busy sniffing after Mr. Atlas (the hero of the beach!!)? How can you say women are rejecting you for your looks, when they can’t even see you? Your lack of incoming mail couldn’t possibly have anything to do with the fact that your profile is barren of pictures (“don’t have any available” is a very weak excuse—take some!!), or that you’ve listed your profession as “McDonald’s Guy”. Where are the details in your “About Me” section that back up THAT claim? I see no references to your successful tenure as Mayor McCheese. I do, sadly, see a string of “downerisms”, such as “I was being used”; “I wasn’t appreciated”; “I hope there’s somebody out there for me”; and “I won’t be lonely anymore”. All that negativity and your “About Me” section is only four sentences long (okay, five sentences if you count the “hi”). Sweetie, even Mr. Atlas would kick sand in your face and say “Man UP!”
Yes, there is hope. Get some snaps uploaded into your profile (and be smiling in them!). Get rid of your “About Poor Pitiful Me” section, and replace it with a new and improved, more upbeat, “About Me & The Reasons I’m A Great Guy” section. If you do this, I’m sure your responses will increase (there’s no way to go but up). Who knows? Perhaps, you may find yourself “lovin’ it”, because the babes will be lovin’ you! | |

| Are all women only into guys with six pack abs and muscles to the ceiling?... Posted: 3/15/2007 1:16:54 PM | | I am not sure if women care about six pack abs or not . I workout alot I have the six pack abs my bodyfat stays below 10%. But I do not post a pic of them or me because then all you will get is the "wow" response and thats not what I am after . I do think a pic will get you alot more response's if you are a good looking person . But if your not that good looking you might get less response . We seem to be a very superficial society . But looks does not make a relationship. Its what is on the inside that does . I was always told looks will open the door for a Date but whats on the inside is what keeps it going. | |

| Are all women only into guys with six pack abs and muscles to the ceiling?... Posted: 3/15/2007 4:40:49 PM | | Nope...I cannot speak for other women, but for me, personally, I prefer men to be lean and fit...but not muscle-packed. Even if the guy doesn't have a perfect 6-pack, it's all good to me. I like my men to be fit though ( I am not talking about Mr. Olympian or some sort of model, super body ).....I just want him to be athletic and fit. That's all. | |

| Are all women only into guys with six pack abs and muscles to the ceiling?... Posted: 3/15/2007 5:01:17 PM | Women don't look at MEN the way MEN look at women. MEN, we look at the visual[how sexy she looks] or hot she is, women pull for look's but even more so: TRAITS OF POWER. Women have no choice but to submit [genetics] to a strong, powerful, in control dominant MEN.
So my advice for you is to practice being less submissive and more dominant. Be more of a challenge and don't worry about it! there's over 3 billion women in this world and we both haven't met them all. | |

I don't have a lot of "body confidence" so I admire those who do. At the same time, it doesn't define them, even if they think it does.
I've seen guys who are very well built who are total jerks on the inside. They go from pretty to ugly in 5 minutes.
Some go from pretty to ugly the second they open their mouths.
I've had the opportunity to date (in the distant past) a couple of guys who were very buff and I honestly did not feel suited to them. They seemed so preoccupied with themselves physically and were always going on and on about it. It became boring and nauseating. I think some focus too much on the physical and not enough on the intellectual side of themselves.
I like people who are humble about themselves. I get very turned off by someone who thinks they are "all that and a side of chips".
So, for me, 6 pack abs and big muscles probably mean more to him than me, unless he's my personal trainer that is. Then he could at least teach by example. | |

No serious tho, i think most guys consider looks as is she "good enough" not is she super hot. And a woman that you are MILDLY attracted to and knows how to flirt and talk can have that guy eating out of her hand.
But you better like or at least get along with my family or else /punt | |
