Same as the OP....will find men attracted to her as well.

How tall are we talking here? 5'9 and very athletic is very hot to me. 6'0+ is a little questionable...although I'm pretty short myself at 5'10. If I was 6'3, I would totally date 6+ women


As far as this thread goes, I like extremely muscular women who don't take steroids cause I work out a lot myself

When I was in my 20's I would only date athletic women I grew up playing soccer, running cross country, etc. So for me having a women who could keep up was great. Even these days where I'm out of shape at the moment, I sill like a women who can keep up with me on a 10 mile hike despite her bulid.

My husband said he was attracted to me because I looked like I could help move furniture! Nice....he did not like small women who looked fragile. And he wanted basketball player sons...

Not necessarily. I prefer a man exactly my height, but I'll take taller or shorter if I like them. I think in real life height isn't as big a deal to either sex as it is online.

Again from my POV it seems that the reason women like taller guys is that they feel protected when thier SO is taller. Which would make sense to some extent.

to the op..

i think the best body type is one that is healthy and one that has self confidence.

if u are questioning whether ure body type is good or bad, then maybe u arent happy with it yourself. remember, whatever changes u make to your diet or exercise routine, make sure u do it for YOU and no one else.

Good Luck!!

I suppose, but logic only has so much to do with attraction.

Very true but you can't deny that a women likes to feel protected. Just like a man likes to fel that he can protect his women.

I don't know, it's not something I've ever had a friend express to me and its not something I feel myself. I like a man who can squish the spider when it runs across the room and fix the toilet when water starts gushing across the floor, but there's no height requirement for that kind of thing. I don't need a protector, I need a partner.

Your arse is on your own when it comes to the spider!! Yet I get where your coming from life is about having someone next to you more then anything else. And in the end that's what really matters, but we/men like to feel that we can protect you if the situation ever came up. Everyone is different.
