    Well Jessica Ennis would be a good candidate

    Jennica Ennis would be what I consider a muscley woman, and yes she is attractive.

    But what OP has posted so far (Cindy Philips and Mavi Gioia) - It baffles me. Junked up, unnatural physiques that are bordering on the ridiculous.

    Edit: Sorry, was saucers posting those links not the OP!

    But a toned woman has muscles......not Jodie Marsh muscles but she will have some muscle definition. Otherwise she'd be skinny fat. Ewww.

    i'm not the OP

    It also must be clarified that it's not the muscles of Jessica Ennis that make me find her attractive. I find her attractive despite her muscles. Her 'permanent' muscle tone is just below my 'too muscley for a woman threshold'. :D ie. I'd find her more attractive with the same overall shape but less visible muscle tone.

    It's a subjective grey are which makes it hard to now if we're at cross purposes with the OP or simply don't agree.

    EG. Permanent very defined thigh and calve muscles on a woman do nothing for me and are borderline unattractive to me. A woman without same but who say stretches in her knickers after getting out of bed and which pops her calve and thigh muscles into definition momentarily?? [shivers with arrousal] :D

    Wibbs probably hit the goldilocks zone with his dancers/Tennis players physique analogy.

    Extremely muscular women are very rare anyway. It's not like you'd meet any in Coppers. If that is a prerequisite of what you're looking for in a partner then you'd be searching for a long time.

    Jesus. Ehhhh no. Just no. A perfect example of taking it too far. Plus her need to shave of a morning would put you off.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    YUCK and I'm female.

    I'm quite slim but fairly muscular in terms of strength, but don't have big bulging muscles like that

    My OH is slightly obsessed with Jessica Ennis and follows her events as he thinks she is just lovely

    I think it's perfectly acceptable for women to have good musculature without looking unfeminine

    The tide wouldn't take her out. She'd be too strong for it.

    Not finding her especially attractive because of her body make-up and shape and calling her "fugly" are two very different things. I suggest you take a moment to consider the difference.

    Haha nothing wrong with having different tastes to others.
    I would think (and apologies for making a generalisation with no supporting data) that body builder girls would go for body builder guys?

    Plenty of men admit it. Plenty more don't like it.

    You need to understand that you have a taste in women which is contrary to popular opinion. The vast vast majority of men simply do not like female bodybuilders.

    I don't really know why anyone would be 'afraid' to admit it. It's a pretty niche taste - I don't know why you find this so offensive.

    You need new mates I'd say. Me and my mates all have very different taste in women, which works out pretty well since we never end up fighting over them.

    that's maybe because most of your opinions are given in private over the net
