From steamy guilty pleasure shows like “Chicago Fire” to countless calendars and posters, it’s clear that firefighters hold an important place in our society beyond being first responders.
While their job may be to put out flames, the very sight of these brave and able heroes ignites excitement in many a woman who crosses their path. What exactly is it about firefighters that puts our senses on high alarm?
What makes people attractive to the opposite sex often depends on hard numbers related to their dimensions. For example, researchers have found that men tend to most desire women who have a waist-to-hip ratio of about 70%, because this was traditionally seen as ideal for childbearing. Women, on the other hand, tend to find a man physically “ideal” when he has a shoulder-to-waist ratio of 161.8%. The heavy lifting and other upper body work that firefighters do tends to give them the type of body that we’d like to watch slide down a pole.
Firefighters save lives and help others, which is part of why they enjoy such an esteemed position in our society. In fact, a recent Harris Poll suggests that alongside doctors, scientists, and military officers, firefighters enjoy more job-related prestige than other professionals. This may be a key factor in their allure. Many psychological studies have found that social position plays a significant part in a man’s perceived level of attractiveness.
Yes, it’s true, the very thing that many of us want to see taken off a firefighter could be what’s turning us on. Some experts believe that women are attracted to a uniform because it suggests a level of competence and dependability that would make them good protectors and fathers. (However, a University of Toledo study found that the specific uniform matters; a doctor’s outfit was rated much higher than a fast food worker’s.)
Writer Colette Dawling first popularized the idea of a Cinderella Complex in the early 1980s. Dowling theorized that many women may fantasize about (and seek out) a “knight in shining armor” type, who can save them from their problems.
While some feminists have criticized Dawling’s work, others argue that fairy tales and other societal influences do in fact compel women to fantasize about being swooped up carried out of the burning building that is their life.
Well, duh. Aside from the aforementioned shoulder-to-waist ratio, the rigorous physical activity that firefighting demands keeps firemen looking strong and delicious all over.
Sure, rolling muscles are a lot of fun to look at, but they are also an evolutionary indicator that a man is a healthy and worthy mate. According to Dr. David Frederick of the UCLA Department of Psychology, who conducted a study on women’s attraction to muscles, “Muscularity…requires calories, testosterone, and a strong immune system. It’s telling women, ‘Hey, look at me — I must be in good condition.’”
But c’mon, did you really need science to tell you that?

I presume it would be the same shoulder-to-waist ratio.

“Muscularity…requires calories, testosterone, and a strong immune system. It’s telling women, ‘Hey, look at me — I must be in good condition.’”
funny thing is the guys with the best physiques usually have fucked up livers and kidneys and are probably impotent. And had below average bodies in the first place, hence what got them into bodybuilding.

Most women know unless they are a 10/10 they will never be able to lock a guy down a guy who has all of the above traits you mention. They all get tired of being single and settle eventually.

This is pretty much as big a guy as a woman wants unless she's quite overweight then they like a more rurugby player build. If you think that gay meat head above gets women wet your mad.

Most women find a prime Ronnie Coleman to be the ideal.

Did someone say ideal pussy pulling physique?
-
Love the funky percentage.... most women instinctively require this ratio to be accurate to around 1/10 of a percent or their ovulatoriums tells them "nooooooo".
Ratio of roughly 5 over 3 so make sure that you train your 2/5 of attractiveness with BDB upright rows.

A big percentage of females who are 30+ go crazy for some serious muscle on a men. I have no idea why, but I've been noticing this pattern over and over.
BTW - short and muscular males look funny. If you are tall and manage to pull of a jacked physique, well that's a different deal. happens a lot less tho', it's harder to do that.

He will pull attention, but only a small percentage of women fall for these physiques.

In normal clothes he is a healthy athletic dude... Only in skin tight tshirts or on the beach will he appear big..
By the way, only pathetic little runts like uberman seem to argue about what women find attractive, I think what this shows is maybe he's protesting too much, maybe his ideal man is big and muscled, but that brings us to the real question... Why is he looking for the ideal man?, I think its a question he is scared to answer and is maybe the source of his intense negativity

I realize that this is a classic debate, where guys like Uberman defends the twink look and guys like Halo the Mr 'O look.
I always LOL when women complain about 'too much muscle!' or 'OMG, those veins!', fuck those insecure bitches. A true man lifts because he loves it, not to draw attention.

I wanted to be a bodybuilder before I even knew what my turtle necked cock was for...., don't beleive a single word out of a womans mouf... There was a recent study done that showed men that did chores in the house got significantly less sex than those that did just diy and the likes.. Yet the sneeky mares always claim to love a man that will help them
They say no but mean yes, just ask mike Tyson..

While that's true, it's also true that women ARE happier when a man does chores

Is it because THEY don't have to do them?

If you can find this study please post it. I'd like to pass it along to my wife. ;D

Probably part of it. It's also nice when a partner does something for you, it's heartwarming.

http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/men-who-do-housework-have-less-sex/
It's likely a correlation/causation misanalysis. The fact is more likely that the more dominant males that demand (and women happily give) more sex are less likely to do household chores. The beta homo that does the dishes makes his wife sick thinking about his pale, flaccid body impotently pumping his tiny cock into her (my meta analysis provided).

Data is from 92-94. Things may have changed a bit since then.

Ya I will copy and paste the article in a format that doesn't show that. I may even add/subtract a few things. This is an important study

A CRITICAL study, for sure.

i think so too...

While there may be a link to shoulder to waist ratio and facial symmetry in terms of testosterone levels in men and what is attractive to females I dont think this is in black and white. I know feminine women with wide clavicles - point is It largely comes down to the bone structure of your parents. Genes are not everything, You may have of had the best genetics in the world but if you had a shit diet in your teens and didn't eat enough fat and bombed yourself with simple sugars you probably shortchanged yourself later in life.

lol idk could be a link to why women like it. Getting that fucking huge and that lean requires a ton of liver/kidney toxic steroids and peptides predisposing yourself to various cancers, diabetes, organ failure etc. Only guys with elite genetics can take that kind of abuse for so many years without their bodies breaking down, most pros do have superior genes to reach that kind of size.
