Have women moved on from the jock/muscular type of guys?

[loversquarrel]

Guys like hot mugshot guy are a curiosity. He has a nice face and a decent body, but it’s ruined by the prison tats, the grill, and most importantly the convicted felon status.

 

How many of you guys would still be into J-lo if she had a tramp stamp with an arrow pointing to her rear and the words “stick it here”?

 

Looks are important, but they don’t take precedence over everything .

I love a hot body and handsome face, but that can’t be the only thing a guy has going for him.

 

Which puts some nerdy intellectual skills in a good place, they’ve got great starting material that has staying power. All they need to do is improve on their looks and fitness if those are lacking.

 

Most of us aren’t looking for a guy who could win Mr.Olympia.

 

For many of us, a body like that looks just as gross as this body might look to the men.

 

As for your j-lo comment....this guy would still try to follow the instructions of that tattoo...

Fit, sexy men will never truly go out of style. Sure a lot of gals here say it doesn't matter, that they're not visual, but a lot of women are. Women go bananas for Henry Cavill, Roman Reigns, Jason Momoa, etc. It's not an accident Jason Momoa was cast as Aqua Man. Henry Cavill basically get sexually harassed on social media by thirsty ladies.

 

Me personally I prefer men who are into fitness.

 

Ok, if you're nerdy find a nerdy girl. That'll increase your chances of success.

Still don’t understand why nerds can’t be fit?

 

I’m into fitness. It’s super nerdy. Optimising workout, tracking progress, lots of data and theories to explore...

It's a stereotype. Many people can be fit and be nerdy, artistic, musical, etc. People are bad about putting others in narrow boxes.

A nerd is a person seen as overly intellectual, obsessive, introverted or lacking social skills. Such a person may spend inordinate amounts of time on unpopular, little known, or non-mainstream activities, which are generally either highly technical, abstract, or relating to topics of science fiction or fantasy, to the exclusion of more mainstream activities. Additionally, many so-called nerds are described as being shy, quirky, pedantic, and unattractive.

...Some of the stereotypical behaviors associated with the "nerd" stereotype have correlations with the symptoms of Asperger's Syndrome or other autism-spectrum disorders.

... most nerds are shy ordinary-looking types with no interest in physical activity.

 

 

As nerd in some circles is seen as a more "cool" term than previously, I do feel some are trying to jump onto the nerd bandwagon, when in reality they cannot be classed as a "nerd" in the true meaning of the word...

Bill Gates would probably take exception to that definition. There’s nothing anti-social about him but I’m guessing he needs a good deal of alone time. I think he epitomizes what would be considered a high functioning nerd. He’s intellectual and level-headed. To me, he’s an absolute doll.
