I know there is a topic of that somewhere..

But yesterday a friend of mine said I'm so rude because I don't like guys with ''more meat'' or ''more to hold''. We got in a pretty nasty fight bc come on everybody prefers something else - I like my guys thin it's just what I'm into.. Is this so wrong?

For the guys on here you can change it up of course :)

So what do you prefer?

Thin guys for the winnn!! My husband is thin and I prefer that body type to the "more meaty" dudes. I just am not attracted to that....meater... body type. I mean, of course there are certain exceptions, but for the most part, thin dudes are my jam. I don't understand why people get into fights because one of you prefers a different body type--everyone has their own tastes, we all don't like the same body types all the time, who cares? :p

I like them thin too, don't care about (or even like) muscle. Who you're attracted to is a personal preference, you're not rude unless you're actually insulting someone for their body.

I don't like to admit that, as I believe that relationship is not about a physique, but I think that both muscular and skinny guys can be attractive in their own way, but not the fat ones. I'm bisexual and same goes for girls.

I just hate fat, I'm scared of fat, and want to have nothing to do with fat. I guess I'm sorry? But it's just so repulsive for me, I can't help that...

I feel you! I don't insult people, I mean I would never say something like ''you should lose some weight you're way too fat'' NEVER! But they scare the shit out of me and make my skin crawl.. But I feel so sorry for that

I like meatier guys. By meaty i mean i like lean muscle, with only a "healthy" amount of fat, if that makes sense. Not flubby fat but fat meaning softness so I'm not cuddling a steroid induced brick. Idk I think it's a thing with competition but I don't want him to be as small, or smaller than me. If he is thicker with muscle it makes me more petite.
But in the end personality>body

I don't like dating thin boys because I'm always scared I'm much bigger than them

and I don't like dating thin girls because I always try to compete with them and get thinner than they are

So I guess they just have to be bigger than me haha

I'm in love with skinny, grungy musicians x) I've had a few tiny bfs in the past and man it is amazing to be able to hug a guy you like and feel his shoulder blades through his t-shirt. Triggering, but amazing.
My favorite musician is Vic Fuentes from Pierce the Veil. These pics are from when they were much younger, but he's the singer in forefront

And Jonny Radtke is like angelic xD and I'm excruciatingly jealous because he looks anorexic but my friend and I have done research and all indicators point to his weight being completely natural:
