    I personally prefer tall and broad and preferably with a bum to squeeze and some nice abs and nice muscular arms. Not asking for much am I?:p In saying all that its not a dealbreaker but I'm just being superficial for the purpose of this thread. So girls what type of body do you like for your ideal man??

    Big Broad Shoulders gets me every time!!

    Tall (not hard, since I'm five foot), broad shoulders and back, and strong legs. I despise skinny legged men.

    dont particularly care as long as they're not scrawny or lanky!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 166,005 ✭✭✭✭LegacyUser

    Good toned muscley arms.. Nice tight bum, good 6 pack and a nice well built chest :D

    I don't have to look too far from home for the above though :p;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,676 ✭✭✭✭smashey


    All this talk of tall and broad. Where were you all when I was single?;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,875 ✭✭✭Seraphina


    i dont have a particular 'type' i go for, but the current bf is tall (well taller than me thats all that counts :)) and very skinny. there's something about the way i can see aaaalll his muscles perfectly that makes me go all wobbly :p
    im a sucker for something interesting though. perfect is boring, the human body with all its differences and foibles is totally fascinating.

    I dunno really. I like them toned but not discustingly muscley. I love arms. Veiny arms with medium muscles. Mmmm.....

    I was in the Mardyke gym two weeks ago and who was in the shower with me but none other than himself!
    I have no interest in GAA though so couldn't give a damn.

    I like the 'tall and broad' type guy too, he's gotta have a nice ass too though, 'two eggs in a hanky' as we used to say when we were younger!

    Exactly. Like them to be at least average in build, but would go for slightly more above average. They can't be thinner than me, totally freaks me out.
    As long as they're taller than me, it's grand. I'm only 5'3 so that's easy.
    Big arm muscles, short hair. Can't think of anything else right now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,983 ✭✭✭✭Hermione*


    Once they're neither shorter or thinner than me ...ugh! But I'm 5'8" and can't make myself be attracted to somebody my height or a little taller, so really anything around 5' 11" or taller.

    I had a thing for Grant Mitchell too. I think it was more to do with the fact he was a bad boy;) . What is it with bad boys. Rough and ready is so sexy.

    Also even though I like broad and muscular I don't mean those professional bodybuilder types.

    There was a picture of him and Brian Dooher(the tyrone captain)on the beach once in the indo.Sean Og just looked soooo hunky-tanned,tall,dark,muscles and Brian Dooher just looked soooo Irish-pale,kinda pudgy,re hair and smallish was quite funny:)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 377 ✭✭Aporia


    Tall and skinny - sign of youth. Gotta be stong though.
    Bulky guys with muscles look like their in their 30's... ugh, verry unattractive.

    Actually Sean Og's very cute; that lovely dark curly hair ...mmm! Plus, he'd be able to talk to you in Irish, and virtually everything sounds better in Irish!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,122 ✭✭✭LadyJ

    Oh God,so did I. The shame!

    Also,I don't get the whole "men with nice asses" jazz. I never notice guys' asses. They don't do it for me. I'm straight and everthing but I just think that asses are so much nicer on girls!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,068 ✭✭✭✭Terry

    and some nice abs and nice muscular arms.

    I think you may have just described me, I'm a half inch or so short of 6'. And I weigh less than 9 stone, occassionally I can see all the bones in my rib-cage. Seems everyone wants someone broader :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 213 ✭✭BigWilly

    Even more shameful was for a while I though Phil was ok too :o

    Well when I think of nice asses I wa thinking of naked asses. An ex of mine had the nicest bum ever.

    Aporia some of us like men in the 30's. Well seems as I'm 30 myself I don't find the younger skinny ones attractive. Suppose its the way I didn't find teenagers attractive when I was in my twenties! Wait until you get older yourself. Give me a distinguished gentleman anyday. Julian McMahon is yummy.

    I love skinny, cute lads. A Kurt Cobain-esque type of build.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,928 ✭✭✭✭rainbow kirby


    Well being taller than me is an absolute necessity. Short guys are horrible. If the guy isn't much taller than me, then preferably quite skinny. If he's in the 6ft range, then a bit more well-built, but flab is a major turn-off.
    Ooh, and a nice ass is always good :)
