    I think men with an extreme amount of muscles are disgusting. Like a mutant. This morning there was a commercial for something like a ShakeWeight or something like it to build muscles. I changed the channel because the person showed the before picture, where he was a little gross, and the after, where it was repulsive.

    I think it would be better to be thin and smaller then muscled where you can see their veins.

    I'm thrilled to hear a guy say that there's more to life then women. :] Cheers to you!

    * It depends on the individual woman. I prefer lean, mean and slightly muscular (not so muscular their veins are popping out) men, but even when younger I went for the guys that were a little shy, interesting, had a good sense of humor and treated me like a lady and if the chemistry worked then it was great. I dated male models, a life guard and found they were so into themselves the dates with them were boring and I dumped them. Men that are very muscular spend hours getting this way and they often will cheat with steroids. Nope, give me a guy that keeps his health up without being too into himself any day. Young male teens sometimes find that they don't think girls are attracted to them and instead of working on their personality they get mixed messages and work out like crazy and are under the delusion that muscles will get them the girls they are interested in. Not true!

    * Women like muscles more than they care to admit. I know, I was a walking young muscle once. Go to a night club and show off your arms and chest a bit and after the women have a drink or two they are just as bad as us men. They want to hang off those arms. However, don't mistake physical attraction with male arrogance. Although it is a fine line, women like confidence, not arrogance.

    Thanks

    That's actually by no means why females do not opt for muscular guys, you might now not be extra improper. I suppose you are simply seeking to make your self consider bigger. It real is a choice factor. I'm now not interested in muscular guys for the reason that I'm simply now not, I by no means had been. I do not discover bulging muscle mass to be wonderful whatsoever, I opt for a person to be now not fats, however to have a few meat on his bones. It has not anything to do with the best way I consider approximately myself, I am very positive and although my fiance used to be a muscular man- I would not be scared of different females for the reason that he is with me and now not them. I'm definite there are lots of females who revel in muscle mass, however do not be so dense to suppose if they do not it is for the reason that of an lack of confidence.
