Do women prefer buff guys?

If you're married, its important to stay fit. I kind of slacked off these last few years, and became a chubby bastard. My wife was still nice to me, but I can tell my flabby belly turned her off. Started doing Brazilian Jiujitsu 5 times a week for the last 8 months. Lost about 50 pounds

.I like the build I'm developing from it. Being fit helps the relationship and sex life a LOT.
 
Oblivion, you know I love you, and I know I've quoted this before, and if it's in any way offensive or bothersome just let me know and I'll remove it, but...
I just have to quote this:


Oblivion
Fetishing muscular manly men in skintight hosery


Actually I'm surprised no one's done this until now.
 
In general, GAF has got some damn fine fellas~ Please, let the pics continue!
Interspersed with some discussion as so to jussssst not derail the thread.
 
There is a preference but it's not wide spread as you may think. Myself and a few friends aren't buff at all, and I am overweight but I've had some of the most attractive women ever
 
So you think 95.4% of women have identical preferences in men?

We said “Let’s say you have a boyfriend that is naturally chubby, like the photo of Gerard Butler on the left. All else the same, would you prefer if he were fit, like on the right?”

78.4% of women answered yes. They would want him to look fit.
20.6% of women said they didn’t care.
1% liked the chubby version.

Not quite 95% but still damn high
 
Well since some gaffers are posting themselves, I thought why not. This was me back in August doing the ALS challenge. I've been lifting for a long time. I'm currently attempting and failing a clean bulk lol. It's pretty dirty atm. Next year I'm hoping to be a little bigger and even lower BF%. I certainly do get more attention from women when I'm leaner than when I have more body fat in the winter.

This thread has become somewhat of a magical wonderland that I hope stays alive in all our hearts forever. (aka post more pics hot gaffers.)
 
Now, let's have a thread about men preferring fit girls and see how long that thread lasts with female GAFers posting selfies.

Would everyone be as respectful as they have been in this thread? And it wouldn't be precisely about "fit" girls to correspond, it would be about the average male body type preference.
 
Expounding further, it also helps explain a common conundrum men find confusing; most women seem to claim they aren't interested in the body builder types, but the actual body builder men seem to do very well on the dating scene.

They do to a certain degree but they also tend to date girls that also care about themselves to an insane level of superficiality. It's really a catch 22.
 
This thread has mostly run its course, I feel. It's mostly just operating a de facto post pics of yourself thread.
