Do you guys think any woman would prefer a BBers build over this guy?

[MarvinEderFan]

Of course it's big, but it's not BIG ie. super heavyweight IFBB pro BIG.

My point is there is a huge difference between those pics and then heavyweight IFBB pro BIG.

[danielson]

Yup. Got a link to the study? I forgot where I read about it.

It would make for interesting reading.

I read it in the USA Today. It was definitely Tuesdays edition, could be in the online edition.

Yeah, I don't think the pros of today attract a large percentage of women. Guys seem to like them though

I think with the right attitude you could also pull women looking like that. Has "cool" written all over him without being too much, you know

Big news? Muscle size matters to women
Researchers say they've concluded that women are attracted to men with big muscles. "On the one hand, it makes them more sexy to women. On the other hand, it makes women more suspicious about their romantic intentions," David Frederick of UCLA tells Reuters.

Is this news?

USA TODAY's Sharon Jayson says it is, noting that the findings grew out of six studies that were conducted over four years. Researchers looked at data from 788 college students about muscularity and sexual partners, according to her story.

"Some of the UCLA studies used photographs of men ranging from slender to brawny and asked heterosexual men to report on the muscular features of their own body type and their sexual relationships," she writes. "Men who were more muscular than average had twice the number of sex partners, flings and affairs with women who had a boyfriend as those of average or below average muscularity."

But here's where the double-edged sword comes into play. The research shows that less brawny men are considered more desirable long-term partners.

What is silly though is that people often take a "trained" model vs. super heavyweight IFF pro.

How about the in-between?

I think there are plenty of girls who'd go for this:



- minus the guns and camo



Pretty muscular, but not BIG. It's the BIG factor that scares girls off.

haha are you kidding me? Most girls think that that is the biggest a man can get.

Here is what I think girls would like: cut but not gigantic..

[Mars]

That's still too big for a girls taste Alexx, girls want them tiny as can be with abbs.

[MarvinEderFan]

Alexx, I agree, but it depends on how he carries it.

Problem, is, 4/5 times a guy with that kind of build is a juiced up over the top macho clown walking like his lats were 4 times that size. It's the atittude that turns the women off then.

I guarantee you guys can look like that - and with an entirely different attitude get good game.

[eastcoastbbman]

Hey, I prefer muscular guyz.  IMO, bigger is better & yes, size does matter to me.  

atta girl!!!! you go, jade!!!

[alexxx]

That's still too big for a girls taste Alexx, girls want them tiny as can be with abbs.

He is not exactly huge but I bet girls wouldn't mind this.

Marvin some girls may be turned off if the guy has a huge ego, true, but their are also those who like the bad boy types.

[Mars]

Trust me he still grossing girls out.

[MarvinEderFan]

Interesting how times have changed.

I bet durin the 80s more girls would've found arnold to be an ideal.

[dizzleman06]

If you followed The Real World, you would see that this cat gets all kinds of pussy. Crazy hot bitches too. I just can't imagine some huge dude getting that kind of pussy at all.

probably, because he is too busy eating all of his 8 scheduled meals and training for 2 hours a day...haha

[Zaney]

He is not exactly huge but I bet girls wouldn't mind this.

he is not huge, then why are u smaller than him?

[Dorian01]

I post a pic of one dude I would like to look like and I am a fag

Wanting to please people other than yourself is not entirely masculine. We're trying to pretend we're working out for ourselves.

[pumpster]

Trust me he still grossing girls out.

Nah, in fact Serge was in some french pornos in the 70s. He was pretty big but as i said before it's the lean athletic look that works, including with more size as with Serge.

[IceCold]

Nah, in fact Serge was in some french pornos in the 70s.

of course, you would know.

do you watch them while you're doing explosive bench presses on your bowflex?

[pumpster]

of course, you would know.

do you watch them while you're doing explosive bench presses on your bowflex?

Ya i would know, some of us have actually followed this and trained themselves for a long while LOL I never see you talk about training, because you don't.

Don't worry we're discussing a black BB, so you can tune out now.

[chester_bbb]

I just like muscular guys that are packin', that's all.

ps  I have been with my guy for 4+ years & yes, he's there.

Do you have jungle fever?

If it weren't for bitches, I wouldn't give a fuck what I looked like. What would be the point

[Mars]

lol.

[MassInMass]

I'm not making this as a blanket statement...But it applies to at least 90% of females out there whether they admit it or not:
The more money a guy has, the better looking he gets, PERIOD END OF STORY!
Jack Black is an ugly little fat shit, and David Spade couldnt get laid in a whore house with a fist full of fifties...
But they both will pull more ass than the skinny brother in the picture...
Can anyone say "Donald Trump?"

This is a subject I think I know very well. I have dated several fitness models ( not bragging ) It's just that girls that train or do photo shoots, compete, whatever, Look at us bodybuilders a little differently than the average 24 hour fitness dude. They either like muscle or they can learn to like it as you date them. From asking the question, what the "average " I said " Average' girl likes to many girls I know. And I'm talking Hot girls. There are 2 categories. The 1st. ) Girls that really don't workout... They might run or have a 24 hour fitness membership. These girls don't see anything but  ( ABS. ) maybe chest. They really don't care to much for arms, believe it or not.
And  " LEGS " Forget it. They don't even see them in their mind. With the long board shorts on the beach they cant see them anyway.
Calves. they don't care either. They all of course want a good face. Now there is group 2. ) These are girls that are really into Fitness !
They see things different. They look for Chest , Back, Legs and Calves. I love it when me and my girlfriend are out and she will point out some guy with big arms no Legs, calves, chest, back. You see they have a trained eye. My point is you are either a bodybuilder and you are going to put on the muscle you want and F..k what anyone thinks. Or you will be lazy and just train your upper body just enough and wear really long board shorts or pants all the time.
*** I live by the beach in San Diego, and we have a boardwalk ( well cement ) boardwalk that runs the a few miles along the beach.
Where people rollerblade , ride their bikes walk , run, etc...... So on one of the days I went to the beach. As I walk up I was standing there alone and wearing Dark reflecting sun glasses I could see what people were saying as they walked bye. I could even hear them as they were that close. Well this pretty girl was walking bye with her boyfriend, and they both look at me and he says to her
" What about him " ??. She said " Way too muscular " !!!!! ewww ! I thought to myself , yeah right ! as her boyfriend was a skinny/fat
Guy. ( I call them Kangaroos ) Anyway, It made me think. Did she just say that to comfort her boyfriend and prevent a fight. Or did she really mean it ?  
What category was she in ?
Now I'm not at all too big in my eyes. 5'9 around 215 in these pics that Ive seen posted here on get big. Ive done several magazine covers, So I guess if you look like Markus rhul, not many girls are going to be into your physique. Unless they are bodybuilders themselves.
Train for yourself , not for what chicks want. It's not really about your body anyway after you meet them...

[The Ugly]

Chicks dig dahawgs.

[Tapeworm]

Yes, I read that study. It was saying muscular guys had more one night stands but were less likely to have long term relationships.

No shit.  Why do you think?
