Ive noticed now days I really find the 60's and 70's playmates with fuller bodies to be very attractive.

As for the study I would not use the word androgynous (sp?) to describe the women. That seems to carry a bit of a political agenda or am I infering too much?
Did you ever see pictures of Hugh Hefner with some Playboy Playmates? All bleached blondes with big boobs. They're practically identical twins. For some reason, I don't find them attractive at all.

Yup, curves win for me every time. I'm just not turned on by pencil-limbed anorexic females with fake breasts, I almost get the feeling that I'll snap them in half during a round of energetic sex. Perhaps that's why porn stars are more curvy and full-figured. :D

As for jmac (my GF) I didn't know she was 150lbs until I tried to catch her in mid air when she jumped on me and I ended up falling on my ass. I knew she was a big girl but I'd underestimated things a bit. It's pretty hard for me to carry her in my arms though, I guess that's the one disadvantage of having a nice big curvy swimmer chick.

I hate really skiny girls, I need some tits and ass to play with, ya know?

Huh, I'm 5'9" too, yet about 55-60lbs heavier.

Yes, but you're a boy, so therefore have a naturally higher muscle:fat ratio, so don't eat yourself up over it.
I'm shorter, and a little heavier, but I'm fine. (i.e within the ideal BMI for my height)
It's my friend who is 5'9" and about 8.5st (my ma makes that 119lb) that worries me)

For my contribution to this thread, I'm gonna post a rant that I went on, oh, maybe a year ago. My good buddy Art's (Tuxedo) heard this one...

I can't speak for all guys, but personally I find really thin women unattractive. I'm sorry, but if I can see ribs, then there's a problem. I want to meet these guys that think thin chicks are hot. I mean, let's think about this for a while: what makes a woman physically attractive? Three big ticket items: legs, ass, and tits. With the exception of legs, those things look a lot better with some padding. If a woman is extremely thin, then there's not gonna be a whole lot to look at, let alone love and touch and squeeze. Super-models aren't sexy, they're in dire need of a sandwich for christ's sake. Calista Flockhart? Gimme a fucking break. Skin stretched over bone, yeah, that's real attractive. Maybe being thin impresses other women, but what does that accomplish? If some woman wants another woman's companionship, she can go right ahead, but us (straight) guys will stick to the chicks with some meat on em.

Hey, there's a difference between saying "it's OK not to look thin" and saying "thin girls are ugly". The former is good, the latter is being a prick.

I know a few thin girls who eat normal, healthy diets and are simply thin by nature. My wife is 5'8", 120lb, and she's not anorexic by any means. It's become so goddamned PC to say "oh, I'm not attracted to thin women", and then to go further and say "thin women are ugly".

It's not being a prick, it's having a preference. Sort of. I think 120lb and 5'9" is offically underweight, though...

Basically, I'm 32,33,36 - and it's not all padding, thank you very much.

Androgynous? Bah! Bah I say! The girl I'm chasing after at this moment is an 18 year old, 5'6" natural DD cup. The rest of her isn't fat, but she's an ample girl pretty much all around. That's the way it should be. And if a girl is going to be thin, she ought to be atheltic thin--toned, not a bag of bones (girls with pretty faces and tight athelte bodies are hot, too). But if I'm looking at ribs, they'd better have belonged to a cow and be slathered in barbecue sauce, not on a girl.

5'6" and DD? I wonder if that causes her any health problems; I know you said she wasn't fat, but if she doesn't have a fair amount of muscle or something to hold her down, those DDs will cause her massive back pain which is, obviously, quite unhealthy. :(

Too much agreement in this thread, so I'm going to say something that most of you probably won't agree with:

You know what turns me on? Chicks with biceps. Not huge ones, not manly chicks, but if a hot chick has some decent muscules, that's the way it should be in my book.

Just how big is a DD cup anyway? I know a couple of girls at my school with big boobs, but I wouldn't think that they're a DD.

When your approaching double C or getting into D territory, it's pretty big. A buddy of mine who worked in retail was able to estimate a women's chest measurement and cup size just by looking. Mind you, it was part of his job.

Anyhow, as far as skinny women go, some just have metabolisms like racehorses. They eat but they also burn it off. Physical appeal is subjective but the trends mentioned in the article are interesting.

I'm estimating DD. She just looks too big to be a D. Pretty girl, too. I'm probably reaching a little beyond my grasp with her, now that I think of it. Oh well.

I don't disagree there. My last girlfriend was built like that. She was a little psycho, but nobody's perfect.

My current GF is built like that, and so were most of my previous ones. Nothing like a nice firm curvy body to get me going. I've always had this thing for athletic chicks.

Do you think that fashion models tend to be overly skinny and boyish looking because many of the top men in fashion are gay? Im not sure if it really correlates. The idea just popped into my head watching some guy talk about his fashions on tv one day.
