Preferred body types

[Historiagraphour]

Provided they meet my personality requirements: intelligent, funny, and generally kind-hearted, then as far as pure looks go, I like women who are slender and well-proportioned. Not skinny, but not thick, either. I prefer round, firm breasts, nicely curved hips, and a round bum. Long legs and a shorter torso. Elegant features and graceful in motion.

For men, I prefer them to be tall and athletic. Toned, I suppose, rather than overly muscular. I definitely go for men with nicely defined arms and torsos and a well-shaped bum. Again, I'm not really attracted to overly skinny or overweight. Lately, I've noticed a fetish for bald men (sans combover) and blue eyes.

I like men taller and bigger then me, so that they can protect and overpower me. Muscles are nice too, but for charm, wit, intelligence and humor -- all these things can be chucked out the window.

Curvy. I don't like scrawny women. I'm a bigger built guy and I don't want to feel like I would snap her.

I like large breasts. Soft skin. I usually prefer fairer skinned women. I prefer brunettes. I like brown eyes.

Just see Rainshine's avatar for what I like. She's it and a bit.

Personality goes a long way too. I mean, if you have nothing to say, perfect!!! Hehe. Just kidding. For me, looks only last for a short while in regards to keeping a relationship going.

proportionate

I consider myself a leg man, but proportionate is the word I use the most in describing what I find attractive in a woman's body. I have been attracted to all shapes and sizes of women, from BBW to rail thin, from 5' to over 6' tall, but the most attractive is a woman that is comfortable in her own skin. A woman that is happy with herself is a complete turn on!!

Easier said than done for some folks, pal.

Yeah, there are some women who intentionally starve themselves in order to fit society's impossible notions of beauty. But there are also people out there for whom it's difficult to take in enough calories to maintain a healthy BMI. I'd be one of them.

I'm not kidding, it's a fucking chore just to consume the 2000 calories recommended for the average adult. There are times I feel like I'm going to barf if I have to eat one more thing. Being rail thin is not the blessing everyone assumes it to be. And it's not always by choice.

Slim, skinny, thick or fat - let's just stop with the body shaming in general, shall we?

Hear, hear! Excellent post, Baila!

*sheepish grin* Thanks, J! I try not to bite people's heads off, but that particular phrase struck a raw nerve. Ask me how many times I've heard it in my lifetime.

Back on topic: I don't know that I have a particular body type that I prefer. I find Jason Momoa (Stargate, anyone?) as equally as handsome as I do James McAvoy. And they are polar opposites when it comes to body type. If I had to name one particular trait, I guess I would say I like men who are taller than I. But given that I'm 5'2", that's not a particularly hard requirement to fill!

Women have curves..period...skinny chicks need not apply

 

[bailadora]

Women come in all shapes and sizes....period

Fixed that for ya. You're welcome.

Look, I'm not knocking anyone for liking what they like. But I will call out anyone who asserts or insinuates one woman is more "real" than another simply because she has curves where the other does not. Skinny/thin shaming is just as wrong as fat shaming. So cut it the fuck out!

It doesn't matter what your body type is, there is someone out there who adores it. That is all that matters, and it is up to you to find that person for yourself.

Me personally, well, it's all about the boobies . . .

Those that know me will appreciate that comment.

I'm curious; (it's not always a good thing lol) do you prefer voluptuous women or petite? Why?

I prefer a body type that is durable, has stamina and can hike for several miles without wheezing or sweating like a pig.

Hair

In my world, it depends on the hair. After really thinking hard, I like natural, light blondes with straight hair, petite and shorter than me. I like dark brunettes to tend toward the taller zaftig. Gingers can come as they are because I am not into getting my ass kicked.

If the hair is colored, I tend to zone out a bit. Highlights and enhancing the color is OK, but I tend to know.
