Would you be heavily turned off by a guy who walks slightly bent over?

Not at all. I think it's cute.

Hmm... I may not be the best person to answer this but I am anyway.

No.

I'm Demisexual. While I don't find things to be a massive turn-off, I also don't find anything to be a turn-on unless I'm close to the person. Once I'm to that point, there's not much that turns me off.

I don't think I would be turned off by that. I am super short though so I might not even notice! :)

No, I wouldn't. It's rather cute, and if it's like my imagination envisions it, innocent-looking and thus endearing. :P

Depends on why or perhaps how he's "bent over". If he's just being lazy and slumping, then that's a huge turn-off. Stand up straight and look like a person who deserves the space he takes up. If it's a back problem such as pain, then I'd expect him to be taking care of himself by working on getting help for it (physical therapy, etc.).

Not standing up straight makes one look like they don't deserve the space they take up? I gotta disagree, I mean I tend to slump but not cause I'm being lazy.........standing up straight is uncomfortable, I've tried maybe it does have to do with my back pain........as for that I don't have money for physical therapy nor do I know that would help.

So I would never judge someone that way for slumping.

My biggest teenage crush had a walk like it, and was heavy footed. It added to his innocent look and I adored it.

Hmm... I slump a little due to my scoliosis. Standing up straight puts strain on my back. Physical therapy helps, but it doesn't make the chronic pain go away.

Point being your opinion is quite dumb.

That's the reason why I made this thread, because some of my family members told me "walking bent over will never ever get you laid".

I've gotten similar. "Men like when you stand straight. It shows inner confidence."

Bah, I say. Until they've lived with my chronic pain they can hush their mouths.
