This is something that I’ve been struggling trying to pinpoint lately. I’m purely interested in the discussion of body composition, primarily from the female point of view.

For women, the standard is generally to maintain a healthy weight, and that’s it. Sure some men like toned physiques or care about tits/ass but as a baseline a woman can be assured that provided she is at healthy weight, her body is objectively attractive to men.

But I’m not sure what the flip standard looks like. If you look at the women in films, they come in all shapes and sizes. But men are almost always cast as lean with defined musculature. Think defined pectoral muscles, six pack abs, etc.

But we know that most men do not fit that standard, and yet many still manage to have sex. My question is at what point do you, as a woman, develop attraction to a man’s body? Not indifference, I mean raw physical attraction. Is it at that Hollywood point? Or somewhere earlier?
