Just curious, what type of body would you like in a guy or in a girl, chubby ones or the skinny ones? Mostly the skinny ones would apply to girls but it could be mean too. Uhmm so Im just wondering nowadays, are people still looking on the outside only and not digging deeper on what they could find out inside that person, that is when it comes to finding the perfect partner, boyfriend or girlfriend.
Some women have eating disorders and wanted to go skinny because they think it is beautiful, is it? Some women who are chubby or larger in size but its not impossible that they can find love better than the other.
How about you, what would you prefer?
Thanks mylotters.

well, I would prefer a skinny guy. It's just my preference. I would prefer a skinny guy over a chubby guy. I don't know why I like skinny more than chubby but it's not meant to be offensive for all the chubbies out there. It's just that I am attracted to the skinnies and not to the chubbies. There are people out there who would prefer chubby men or women. It's just not me. Since there are people who would still prefer chubby men or women, being skinny or chubby doesn't make one better than the other.

it's good you understood my point. I actually know some people who would prefer chubby girls over the skinny ones. It's just a matter of preference.

I'd like a man who has muscles but not over. My boyfriend has it and though it's just fine with me, he likes to develop it more. Oh well, my boyfriend doesn't have the best body in the world, but I am deeply in love with him. So I guess, when you really love a person you don't mind if you get what you prefer. As long as this person has hygiene and can carry his self with confidence and poise, all is good to go! I believe it is more of how you feel whenever you're beside this person that matters. Thanks for the topic! Happy mylotting!

In both men and women I prefer skinny bodies. Not only because it's attractive, while chubby and fat bodies are not, but also because skinny people tend to have a better personality. Chubby and fat people are always ranting about other people's bodies, and for some reason that I can't understand, they're the ones who criticise the most people with their same kind of body, while skinny people don't have that need to rant all the time.
So I choose a good body and a good character

I respect your opinion and definitely we are all entitled to our own, but I guess the reason why chubby people are like that, that they rant about their own bodies is because of the media. Media is bombarding us with the information that skinny people are the only people who are beautiful, and so some people are being insecure and not being able to have the healthy body that they want pushes them to the limit and tends to be hostile and rant all the time. I totally understand their situation, but I agree that no one should be insecure with their own bodies, because everyone is beautiful in his or her own right.

Hi redphile!
Most men I believe prefer skinny women or the sexy ones but I’m on their opposite. I usually get attracted with women who are a bit chubby. Well it’s not of course just the basis for me but that would only be if I were to choose. I found chubby women to be more loving, caring, sweet and thoughtful. Well, this is just my preference and not the very basis of choosing a partner as there are still many factors to be considered in a relationship.

Yup I believe that there are a lot of things to consider when finding the right person for you, or for someone that you would like to be in a relationship with. Being chubby has their own perks that skinny ones does not have. Having those love handles, that they are actually soft when you hug them, so good for you!

For me, since I'm a woman, I would prefer to have the size that's in between. Not the very muscular ones, but not the very lanky ones also. but i would really prefer to the tall ones. I stand at 5'4", so a man standing 5'4 or shorter would not bevery pleasing to me. Right now, I'm contented with my boyfriend. He's tall, not lanky, not muscular, a bit chubby with muscles just on the right places...

I think it is best to lose the Hollywood mindset that says the good ones are skinny. In America these day, there are far more chubby people - since many enjoy eating more than they do exercise. Therefore, if you are looking for the special someone, and you throw away all the chubby ones, you might very will miss the best one in the bunch. A little bit of chubbiness is not a problem. What really matters is that the two of you love and give freely with each other.

IMHO, it really does not matter. As long as you get along ok.
Looking at physical aspects really should not be the standard.

Me on a first impression the medium to sexy type body of a guy. But if i want more deeper then i would know also his inner personality.

I would honestly rather have some who was on the chubbier side. I have had both skinny boyfriends and just plain old fat boyfriends. But I like them right in the middle, being chubby. Its so much nicer to able to cuddle with something that doesn't feel like pure bone.

I liked skinnier guys when I was younger, but now I don't really think they're attractive at all. My boyfriend has some muscle, but he's not overly muscular, and I like that. I think guys need to have a little substance in order to look manly to me.

That's right! Guys need to have more substance than just looking good and all. Same with girls too, not just being skinny but should also have a great personality. The body itself doesnt really matter as soon as that person comes out with a great personality! I also like men with muscle but not like the body builders like the ones in tv wrestling shows? Eww. LOL

Everyone has their own preference,for me,I prefer skinny. I like the appearance is thin and tall.But my preference can't delegate others. My friend often told me that they like chubby men,they can't bear skinny man. But for women,most people like slim women. But there are exceptions,such as Pierce Brendan Brosnan,his wife is too fat,but he love her very much.
Of course inside is very important,but the first impression people always pay attention on your appearance,and not your inside.

In my opinion when it comes to love, one shouldn't look at what the significant other has got outside, rather, they should look at the inner beauty of the guy or gal. Saying that, each individual would have some level of expectancy from their partner on how they should look, whether, skinny or chubby and such things like that. It's just like 1 in a 1000 chances of getting a partner who fulfills just about all your needs. So, the best thing is to, accept your partner in the way he/she is and be loyal to that person.
Interestingly, when you love a person with all your heart, you would even without knowing get all that you have once wished for from your partner.

If you love a person, it doesnt really matter if a person is chubbby or skinny, what matters is the love that they have for each other. Although I would say that it is but also human nature that at first, people tend to look only on the outside aspects of a person, but as they get to know the person more, then they would know that the body size is just nothing.
Some guys just tend to go for the skinny ones but have bad attitudes, rather than the chubby ones who have great personalities. It happens, but really it still depends on each person.

As what I have observed nowadays, guys tend to go for the skinny women, because that's what they usually notice first and that's their ideal girlfriend. However, according to my male friends, when they look a wife or someone to be their companion for the rest of their lives, it doesn't really matter whether the woman is chubby or skinny because what matters is the whole personality of that person-and not just the size of the body. The size, however, would just be a bonus.. :)

That is true! When young, we tend to look only on the outside aspects of the person, most of the time but as a person grows maturely, the personality is most important! I just hope that this applies to all of us! It really doesnt matter if chubby or skinnny as long as theres love in between, its perfect!
