Girls, how much does a guys body matter to you?

Question

I try to keep my body in good shape, how much does it really matter to you?

Just wondering what you think!

Thanks! :)

Answer 1

It matters. It's not all that matters, but it matters. As long as he's not obviously overweight or obviously underweight, I'm cool with it :)

Answer 2

yeah, i reckon it matters to those of us who care about how a guy looks. XD

its nice when your guy cares about his body. ^^ [although it's not like he has to be ridiculously muscular to get your attention 0.o]

Answer 3

Well, a guy who spends all of his time in the gym and has worked his neck away isn't appealing to me.

I am wise enough to know that beauty fades, dumb is forever. So while a guy who is eye candy might be remotely interesting for about the second it takes to look at him - that's all it is. It's nice to know a guy cares about himself enough to care about his own well being and take care of his health. But I'd prefer he did it for those reasons rather than to attract a female.

I honestly take intelligence into account and some other things a lot more than I would the looks.  A guy can be attractive in terms of societal views, but he could be a real jerk in a lot of other ways. ;) So if you take care of yourself because it's important to your health, kudos. If you do it for shallow reasons well... not kudos. lol

Answer 4

For me, not very much at all. Plus I like my guys on the heavier side, I HATE muscles. To me, if a guy works out all the time, that's saying to me that he's obsessed with himself. I want him to be healthy but muscles are far from necessary.

Answer 5

yeah, Its normally one of the first things we will judge you by.

because if you are a weakling or fat, its not gonna be a turnon.

Answer 6

allot of girls like a guys with a good body so do i but doesn't really matter with some girls as long as there no massively overweight/obesese and if you have a great body but your a complete pig allot of girls won't like you the superficialcal ones will but allot of girls wont.

Answer 7

As long as they have what I am looking for personality wise, his body doesn't matter that much. Just don't be a fence post; don't be a whale.

Answer 8

It depends on what your face looks like.. haha.. No Im just kidding..

Personally, not high on my list, unless it is beyond the point of return... You know what I mean? Most "real" girls want the total package & rate personality higher than the physical!!!  

Answer 9

So long as a guy is neither flabby nor bony I'm happy :)

Just don't go too far either way, too much muscle can be a turn off too (for me anyway lol)

Answer 10

Eh, I love my boyfriend dearly and he is quite underweight -- 114 pounds and 5'9". So I guess it doesn't matter as much as I used to think.

Answer 11

They can't look like a hippo but I'm not stick thin either, more curvy-thick, so I don't want a guy smaller than I am either. But if you add their body into the equation of everything else that matters it is very miniscule to me.

Answer 12

I think it matters in the sense that a guy keeps himself healthy and fit, but I don't think that having every last 6 or 8 pack show, or make their life about how they appear. I bothers me when a guy talks about his physique all the time. It's better to just keep a healthy lifestyle and take care of yourself.

Answer 13

for me? it matters a bit.

im thick so i dont wanna date a guys who is smaller or thinner than me.

but if he treats me right and have a little cute face and perfect teeth..and romantic in some way. its aite

Answer 14

It doesn't matter to me at all, as long as the guy isn't disgustingly unhealthily big. But it does matter to most girls a lot.

Answer 15

it does, but personality does the most

Answer 16

Well....it does, but it does not.

First of all how old are you? Because when I was 15 I didn't look at a guys body really, I just cared about what he looked like in general.

Now, i'm 21... You can't be 21 fat with a huge beer gut, that's just not attractive. But you don't have to be muscles and muscles....

I'm not really attractive to real skinny guys, but its not ugly either.

A guy with a little muscle tone put a little pudge is very cute :)

Answer 17

it usually doesnt matter to me.. it's just a bonus if he is. Girls will love u if u make them laugh and laugh at their jokes too  

Answer 18

i dont know how to answer this without sounding like a total w***e... but when youre in the sack, it really doesn't matter anymore.

sure its good eye candy but unlike guys, we don't need something to stare at and grab like an *** or b***s.

it depends on the girl really, i'm very much an "arms and shoulders" type of girl.

Answer 19

It's important to be healthy. Not a body builder. Nobody wants to be taking care of you after you've had three strokes and a heart attack before you've turned 60.

Answer 20

Um...as long as the man's not fat I'm happy. Super skinny or athletic or average is all okay with me. My current bf is athletic but without a 6 pack, but he looks good....actually great. :)

Answer 21

actually to me it doesnt matter as much. cuz i have a couple guy friends who arent the hottest guys out there, but they have great personalities. that what really counts.  

Answer 22

As long as you're taking care of it and are staying in shape, it doesn't matter.

Answer 23

I feel that the way people look is irrelevant. I admit that I notice if a guy is good-looking and looks do matter... but not nearly as much as whats on the inside. I feel that people are too judgmental. Looks are secondary, if that, when it comes to guys I like.

Answer 24

It matters. It's always better when a guy has a nice body. Most girls put effort into their looks so it's nice when guys do too.

Many people will tell you that they don't care what a guy looks like as long as he has a good personality, but, honestly, if a guy has a good personality and good looks he'll be the one who gets all the girls.

Answer 25

to each his own, i like skinny guys. so the body does matter, but not as much as facial features & personality.

Answer 26

Pffft ..... its more personality to me but i would MUCH rather him be in good shape than fat So i would say yes it matters ALOT !

Answer 27

as long as you have a really good personality it truely doesnt matter for me,like ive dated overweight people, and ive dated guys with good bodies.

so if your personality makes up for it, then it doesnt matter.

but a guy with a six or an eight pack always catches my eye

arms,not so much

Answer 28

it matters, ALOT.

like you cant be too skinny

or TOO muscular.

you need to be athletic and fit, and tall.

but not like a million feet tall.

or like hugely built.

pretty much perfect.

sorry guys. :)

Answer 29

it matters quiteee a bit, but i mean its not the most important thing.

if your body isn't great just make sure your personality makes up for itt and most girls will still like you unless their really shallow.

Answer 30

It doesn't really matter as long as his body isn't TOO fat. It's a turn off, and it's difficult to have s*x like that.
