Women are just like regular people.

Just go on the subway---you'll see all sorts of "types" going all lovey-dovey with people who are different "types." Old men/young women. Ugly/gorgeous. The only thing I don't see that much is older women/young men.
Not many men and women look like those people found in porno pictures.
And, looking at my Facebook page, the vast majority of my female friends are not married to men that look anything at all like the men on the cover of romance novels....
Because most people end up accepting what they can get....
What can be gotten in reality =/= Fantasy.
When I was skinny and too geeky looking? I had zero interest from women, none of them even replied to me, not even from Asian girls who are as petites as me. Once my bod changed, I've lost my virginity and started getting FWBs, women started initiating toward me, with a constant supply.
So XFilesGeek and hurtloam, It would be very hard to convince me, me in particular who went into that kind of major transformation in lifestyle and dating results, to be convinced that man's good looks don't matter to women. No matter how you are gonna try to theorize otherwise, I am not going to buy it - my personal results are louder than anyone's words.
I can't tell if this is staged or genuine, but here you, - they asked ladies two questions, the dad bod might be more preferred for 'serious relationship' but the fantasy material is the other guy.

You don't have to convince me of anything, Boo.
I believe women are just as "visual" as men. The ones who say looks don't matter are lying.
My point is: most people are average-looking, and end up with other average-looking people. That's why it's called "average-looking." People's fantasies rarely impact their everyday life. My mother is attracted to tall, dark-haired men with little facial hair. She had sex with my father who was shorter than her, blond, and had a bushy mustache. Most regular people have standards that are mostly flexible.

I wouldn't be surprised if the vid was real. Fluffy guys are cuddly. Meatheads have the fantasy appeal. I love how the girls preferred buff dude for a sexual encounter.

And yet no matter how much we try to explain we aren't, some people will never grasp this fact.
Last post here: I'm a heterosexual female. I'm not attracted to the female body and its lumps, bumps, and curves. I'm attracted to a fit male body with lean muscle. Never will I be more attracted to a woman than I am to my husband.
The rest of you can debate whatever remote things you want, but this is my final word.
Maybe its just my experiences and the younger generation,.but In agree with AbgrlRho.
It really seems like men are.more capable of being attracted to the body sexually of an average, typical, flabby woman than the average pudgy.man.
Evrrytine I ever heard women actually appreciate the male body, they have the male model look, always the unrealistic and difficult to attain flat stomach and bulging 6 pack abs and biceps.
NEVER an average guy with a bit of a belly.
But I can't help thinking more.men would be attracted to the woman's body BEFORE she even lost weight then women would be to this man's body:
Would just as many women be attracted to this mans body than men would be to the womans before picture, assuming they both have equally attractive faces to the opposite sex?

If I was in a restaurant eating my wiener schnitzel, I'd be very grossed out if someone told me that same story. I think people need to think about where they are, before they start telling stories.

Yeah, for sure. We find people attractive but people in the "average" belt realise this is just a dream and find comfort in someone more like themselves. The risk someone better than us will come along for our partners is permanent, but that's where trust and loyalty comes in.
