Lads, what kind of build do you like in a woman?

Sorry to butt in lads :wink:

iampunha to avoid the potentially insulting ‘pear-shaped’ (in Britspeak something that ‘goes pear-shaped’ goes badly wrong) try the more flattering Latin American imagery of ‘guitar shaped’, this also implies that there is still a discernable waist.

I’m always incredibly attracted to short/petite girls - 5’2 is almost too tall. They can be completely waifish (no hips, small tits, etc.) or nice and thick.

Or “hourglass.”

Classic Mediterranean look - Dark hair and eyes, olive or tan skin tones.

Curves, but not overweight. Statuesque - think Sophia Loren (or Salma Hayek or Jennifer Lopez or Catherine Zeta-Jones).

I like women that look like women.

I guess I’m in the minority here, but as far as body type goes, I like thin women. Not sickly, I-can-see-each-rib thin, but flat-tummy/skinny-arms thin works. One thing I lurve is when the hip bones jut out just a little.

And she’s gotta have a cute face. I mean, it’s the thing you look at when you talk, so it’s quite important to have a cute face. And along with that, nice eyes never hurts.

I usually like soft, curvy women. Full breasts are a big plus. I also like tall, strong and athletic. Height is nice, but not an absolute requirement. Toned calves and thighs are very likely to catch my eye.

Basically I don’t want to feel like I’m going to break her if things get a little… vigorous. There are a lot of beautiful women who are dainty and fragile, but I usually go for a slightly sturdier type.

That’s just talking about “build”. It gets more complicated when you think about facial characteristics, skin tone, style, general attitude… the bottom line is you never know who you’re going to be attracted to, although you can notice what characteristics are most likely to get your initial attention.

Ditto.

What I consider the most fetching physical feature is vascularity. I like women with veiny hands, arms, feet, ankles, and necks (not necessarily all in one person).

Am I the only one who thinks that Kidman has gone from being a tall, red-headed ice queen statuesque goddess to just downright creepy in the last few years? I can’t stand to look at her anymore. And the Bewitched trailer makes me want to wash my eyes out with fuming nitric acid. What, she can’t even learn how to properly twitch her nose? I’m just glad she wasn’t selected for the Barbara Eden role in a potential remake of “I Dream Of Jeannie”. That would be sacrilege.

White as paper. Blinding white. An enemy of sunlight. Red-ish hair (may be augmented to that via bottle).

For the body, I’d go with that “guitar” shape described above. With some “meat” on the bones. Breast size is unimportant, though a nicely shaped set (regardless of size) works for me. A good waist - hip ratio is important, and will snap my head around.

Thankfully my wife looks just like that! :slight_smile:

But an hourglass is a bit different than a pear/guitar; it implies that the chest is more or less equal in size to the hips, whereas the pear/guitar implies the chest is smaller than the hips.

Since we’re just talking about build here, I’ll ignore everything above the neck (even though it contains most of my favorite parts).

While I love boobs a lot, their size is unimportant. So long as she has a pair. :wink: What really gets to me is a really great ass. A nice ass accompanied by nice legs show that she cares about herself. A little pudge is really nice, as I like my women to be soft and…um, womanly.

The most important parts of the face are the eyes. It’s kinda hard to discribe. Eyes that I can just stare at for hours on end. Not dark eyes that I can get lost in, but blue or green eyes that I can explore. I guess that sums it up.

As for the body: I loves me some curves. Curves, and boobs. I’m difinitely a boob man. :smiley:

Oh, yeah, and long hair.

Should be available on multiple platforms, and preferably fully backward compatable.

Vibrant personality. Petite (not to be confused with thin). Slightly shorter than me, Short dark hair. A body that wears a dress well. The opposite of almost everything in Playboy.

I’m of the ‘woman-shaped-woman’ school of thought. Women like Kate Dillon are, in body, in the neighborhood of what I’m looking for. I’m a sturdy chap, and in turn need a sturdy woman. I prefer a nicely shaped pair of thick gams, and generally no less than a d-cup, but that’s negotiable…

…now as for the other stuff…

Definately long hair. Smart, brave, loud, outspoken, eclectic and a little bit tough.

Smart though, smart enough to keep up with me in conversation, wins the day.

I favor the build of athletic women, I guess because I’m a bit of an athlete myself. Runners and swimmers tend to have different builds, but I like 'em both. And if there was any chance of a beach volleyball player, look out. Hell, I’m happy as can be in a yoga class, too. Basically, I like women that have some lean muscle, good legs, and a nice butt. The legs can be too muscular for most guys (more like a bicyclists) and I’m still happy. (Go ahead and squeeze, I’m not gonna break!)

But, I’m fully capable of appreciating most any in shape shape. Curvy women and big boobs have certainly caught my attention at times.

What butler1850 said.

I go for your pasty-skinned Irish-looking types. Breasts can not be too big, nor hair too long. Asses can be too small and too big, but more commonly the former in my subjective observation. There has got to be a waist.

I also don’t find myself attracted to taller girls, even though I am 6’4.

Under any other circumstances, this would sound extremely chauvinist, but I was asked! These are ideal criteria, I would never actually expect this. At any rate, the face is where I make my superficial judgements.

Ideally, a woman should be chunky, but still not appearing overweight. The fat should be there to round off the figure, not to add to it. Height should be between average and my own (5’9”). The ass is the sexiest part of the female anatomy in my eyes, and women who walk with their rear protruding receive bonus points. Breasts are really a non-issue, as long as they aren’t so large that they detract from the flow of the body. Notably short legs are a problem, and the head should be in proportion with the body. Any skin/hair colour combination is fine, though blonde hair is generally a turn off. The hair should be worn in a feminine way, and shouldn’t be tied back so tight that she may have well have painted her scalp. Messy strands of hair that catch the light and large fringes are (usually) unbelievably sexy.

I like short women, generally not above 5’4". Curves are a necessity–I like women with wide hips and pretty legs. C-cup breasts are ideal, but bigger or smaller isn’t really an issue. Small hands, dimples, long dark curly hair, full lips and good skin, whether it be dark or light, are good too. My favorite thing would be a woman who is small and dainty-looking, but surprisingly physically strong, with a correspondingly strong personality. That has me doing her bidding and saying, “Yes, ma’am,” very quickly.

My ideal woman body wise is Audrey Hepburn. This is in stark contrast to my ideal male body, which is more like Kevin Smith.

Boyish, no hips, small breasts. What I would look like if I weighed 140 pounds. My one and only true girl crush looked just like her.
