Neither 1 nor 2 are ideal. Everybody has their own taste and,

 

I prefer this to both those women.

 

everyone prefers that, but it ain't real. it's all photoshop. she doesn't look like that, no one looks like that.

This actress is known for her curvy body. I love the show, but think she would look better and still curvy if she lost 20 pounds and gained some muscle tone. Then she would look perfect.

i honestly don't get the fad in the past few years with women weight training to gain muscle.

 

if i wanted something that looked like a man, i'd go gay.

 

muscle tone is not attractive to me, don't want to see any visible muscle on women, especially not abs or arms.

Don't fool yourself that type of body is absolutely real. A friend of mine works in PR for a magazine in town. He has been up close and personal on one of her photo shoots.

 

Yes there is photoshop work done but, women do have that slender shape with those types of curves.

 

A woman like that isn't attainable but, that is a whole different story.:cool:

Well she can't have too much muscle tone because she has to portray a character in a different era. ;)

 

Christina Hendricks, the actress in that photo, is someone that the men in my office drool over. There are several who love her look. My H think she looks good too. :laugh:

i don't doubt that the build and the physique is real, but no one's skin looks that perfect, everyone has flaws somewhere. that's where photoshop comes in.

Yeah that particular photo of Scarlett J is filtered obviously. She is hot though.

It's no fad. Women have done this for years! Did you ever think that maybe these women are in the military, or law enforcement, etc.? Unless of course you're talking about Jillian Michaels? That is gross! :sick:

 

Besides, Jessica Biel has the best female body. :p

Most men, when they say curvy, mean women like Scarlett Johanson or Christina Hendricks.

 

Personally I find Sandra Bullock to be already curvy and even Michelle Trachtenberg is curvy in my opinion.

 

If I had made a thread like this, it would have been a picture of Natalie Portman vs Michelle Trachtenberg. I would have chosen photo's of them that show Natalie's gazelle-like sleek lines and Michelle's curves. However I can't be bothered right now to look for such photo's, but those women are both in this photo montage, so you figure it out. http://bit.ly/nYJghz

 

In regards to ripped women, I wouldn't advise a woman to be more ripped than Milla Jovovich in the photo montage I posted. In regards to being "ripped", that's as far as a woman should go because that's still beautiful and feminine, however it's all downhill from that point on as feminine features start to become masculine. Most men don't find masculinity in a woman appealing.

when I go to the beach, I sometimes see women who look even better than that. Figure, face, skin & all.

The 'it's all photo shopped' line is one I've noticed to be often used by ugly and/or fat women.

The original Leah notwithstanding, I would easily take a Christina Hendricks or Kim Kardashian over Fiona from burn notice. Skinny girls photograph nicely, but I am a 6' tall muscular dude. I always feel like am going to break a girl that skinny in half during sex. ;)

So basically women should stop going to the gym so they don't get muscle tone. LOL

 

I'm not saying they should stop going to the gym or stop doing sports like running for example, that's not what I intended to say or imply at all. But there's a tipping point where overdoing it will cause women to look more masculine in the eyes of men. In my opinion Milla Jovovich is at the apex of that tipping point and she works out daily. Also Natalie Portman runs roughly 5 miles every morning. Mila Kunis worked out a lot for her role in Black Swan too, so maintaining the body types of those women does require effort. The key is not to overdo it and to know when to stop.

Ok, I was watching a rerun of Planet of the Apes:

 

This is curvy:

Note the small waist and nice round hips. Magnificent proportions.

 

 

Now here is a woman that has little difference between waist and hips. I believe this is Lindsay Lohan:

I'll take slender, small and cute any day. I don't dig fat chicks, but I'm sure there are guys who do.

This picture was taken just within the last week of Christina Hendricks when she was in Culver City. Her butt looks pretty big and shapeless, not really curvy to me....She could have a shapely, curvy butt if she hit the gym (but not too much, as we've already discussed.)
