Everyone has their ideal qualities for what they look for in a man. It may be the appearance of his body, activities you both can partake in, or the feeling of being secure. The main problem is to decide who can provide these for you better: skinny or thick men?
As women, we must be physically attracted to the men we date. For the most part, women enjoy the view of a slender, muscular man: how can we not? A man, who is tall with muscles popping from his sleeveless shirt with the faint distinction of abs, has our jaws dropping in public. We can’t contain ourselves when we see a man of such physique, we imagine dragging him around with us to receive the jealous glares from other women. Also, a man of that stature looks nice around our arms, and might possibly make you feel more attractive as a woman. However, all women love a teddy bear and what is better than having a life-sized one! Big men may not catch every woman’s eye, but the teddy bear appeal is a definite advantage to attracting women. Also, if you are the jealous type you may enjoy a man of this build, gaining comfort knowing that women’s wondering eyes won’t be on your man.
With this in mind, we need to find a man that we can enjoy doing activities with. It’s obvious that by dating a thin man that he will only bring forth fun in your life- physical activities for fun that is. The two of you would probably go running, biking, skiing, and he may even want to wrestle with you. I prefer dating a man who is skinny and athletic for that sole reason that I too enjoy doing physical activities for fun. I love more than anything to be able to go out for a jog with the one I love or to have a wrestling match and enjoy a good laugh at how terrible I am. However, on the other hand, many women may prefer a man who has a thick stature. A Man of this build will probably prefer doing laid-back activities more so than physical ones. He will probably want to take you to a nice restaurant, have engaging conversations, and even want to cuddle and watch movies. What could be more comfy than lying your head down upon a cushy tummy!
Most importantly, women need to find a man that will make them feel secure. For instance, a skinny man will make a woman feel secure, because he’ll want to protect you no matter what he has to do. The most common way he’ll want to fight for you is by brawling and being able to throw some punches with the hope that blood explode from the man who is harassing you. Though, a thick man will also make a woman feel secure, probably in a non-violent matter. All this man will have to do is wrap his arms around you and you’ll instantly feel protected, as if nothing can reach and harm you.
Nevertheless, each man undoubtedly has his differences, yet both men share one thing in common as Sherry describes in a forum called, For the Women: Would You Date a Fat Guy?, “His size has nothing to do with his heart.. and how he treats a lady”. So, no matter the type of body you choose, the boy will still care for you unconditionally. Unless you pick a loser, then it’s your fault for bad taste! Overall, as women, we must decide what type of man we would enjoy to hang out with and declare as ours. The question is, is skinny or thick best for you?
