At my job there are tons of mothers that come in ugly as hell but have very hot husbands.

There is a will there is a way.

Yep it's called butterface and I see plenty of those walking around with a man in tow. The opposite--is when you see a girl with a pretty face but a spongebob body and yes they get men too lol. Some men like body better than face, others like face better than body. Some like curvy thin, others like curvy plus-size. Some men like a$$ others like big breasts. Some like long legs--I mean I could go on and on. My point? That if you try to base whether or not you can get a man on your body alone you'll hear too many opinions, and you'll still be stuck at square one. Every man is different. You can't try to cater to every man. But you can most definitely "work up" your good points and show those off. If you believe that all you have going for you is your body then yes you can dress sexy. I'm not sure if that will attract LTR or men that just want to f*** but surely you'll attract someone. Or you can just work on emphasizing the qualities about you that make you a *keeper beyond just your body. Your personality, hobbies, what makes you different from other women, etc. That doesn't mean that you still shouldn't emphasize your body--because I do think that if you have a good body that this is definitely something that you can use as an advantage, but I do think that your "body" alone isn't going to be enough. There are plenty of unattractive women with men, or women with crappy bodies with men--I'm assuming that you don't just want "any" man but that you want a certain type. Someone that will treat you right, complement you, support you, love you, like the way you look, etc--if you want a man like that it starts with you. You have to love yourself and that means that you should never start off a post admitting that you don't like the way your face looks.


But to answer your question, yes for some guys having a good body is all you need. For others no. Most people are average looking, so even if you aren't all that pretty like you claim, there are plenty of people in the same boat. They all somehow end up in relationships.

If you're thin with gigantic boobs guys will like you. Guys dream about having a woman with a hot body like Pam Anderson. Wear more flattering makeup and don't wear clothes that make you look dowdy, lots of busty women look fat in loose flowing outfits.

But some men place much greater emphasis on the body then the face, look for one of those men.
I'm one of those many guys. Everywhere you see a lot of pretty faces but rarely see any nice bodies.

Why are brown eyes boring? I think they're pretty.

I'm not a guy, but I don't think Pam's body is great at all. And I don't know any guys that like her.


OP look at Fergie. She's a buttaface with a nice bod and has a very yummy man.

body is not what you see now, if you want to see what she will look like in 10 years go look at her mother.

Actually it can, there are way more visual attraction ques below the neck than above it. which is a good thing because we have way more control over how our bodies look than how our faces look. I remember a study back in the 90's where people were asked to choose between their idea of an ideal face on an unapealing body or their idea of the perfect body with an un attractive face for a partner, 78% of the men and 53% of the women chose the latter.

also of note, the range of body sizes both men and women found appealing were slim to medium but universally women preferred builds where the men had a 70 degree angle from the smallest point on their waist to the broadest point of their shoulders and men preferred builds where the women had a 70 degree angle from the smallest point on their waist to the broadest point of their hips, and that was constant no matter what size was preferred by either sex.

They might have been nice looking at one point.

That's why you should always do your best to stay attractive for your spouse.

Tori looked great IMO when she was younger. I think she's had too much work done - she's not that old either.

LOL

Carrie is pretty to me.

I wonder who some of you all consider facially beautiful. Fergie a butterface?? LOL

____

I have been both obese and fit, and I have gotten attention from men either way (God, that sounds conceited - not my intent ).

I do get MORE attention from men now that I'm fit. Much more.
