^^^ Those things are not important to every man. Maybe when you're immature.

There's SO much more to physique than age and genetics. Being into martial arts and fitness, you should know that.
One of the worst posts I've seen you make here.

Keep in mind that beauty standards vary across the world and change significantly during different time periods. The constant influence of culture is more powerful than the natal astrological predisposition in my opinion. As we are in the "supermodel era" thin is the supposed ideal although this is shifting to fit and voluptuous women.

Astrologically Cancer and Taurus are signs associated with the curvy beauty ideal. Maybe influence of Jupiter could be a factor as Jupiter "expands".

Also don't despair, on a primal human evolutionary level curvy is definitely preferred - wide hips, soft stomach, big bosom. All of these are signals that a woman is healthy and fertile. It doesn't sound very sexy but this is the "code" in the brain that creates appeal and attraction.

Then it will be irrelevant what astrological particulars are in his chart. They'll fit you and be compatible -- promise.

My wife did this in terms of respect because she got tired of dating jerks that didn't respect her. Once she made the decision, I showed up, and we've been happy together ever since.

Aww what a nice story you have with your wife and so true what your saying

For Brazilian standards, you mean the Brazilian TV standard, right? xD

the thin and fit guys have the Muscles, the big dudes have something else but not raw Muscles xD

I think most of the beauty standards come from the media and TV, but I rather prefer a curved women than a Model kind of skinny one, kind of funny to talk in that way.

But also for me it`s the face that makes the difference, the body comes afterwards

I love this comment.

I think you may have just summarized everything a woman needs to know about dating.

I try to be proud of my curvy body but damn those skinny beautiful creatures wins everytime and makes me idealise them. When guys have been attracted to me and i them i am NEVER their "usual" type bodywise and that has made me want to lose weight and try in a pathetic attempt to get a skinny body. Every man i`ve seen around me has preferred skinny. I envy those curvy women out there that have found themselves a curvy loving man that makes them feel physically beautiful. What in a chart of a man do you think will make him love curves? I need to be on the lookout for them haha. I am just tired of not being a man`s "usual" type.

I don't think such a diverse group of people should be put into a box. Men love what the love. I am best friends with many men and they prefer intelligence, wit, charm and ambition over looks. You are a very good looking woman, maybe they just pass over you because they think of you as too sexual? Some men like women who wear tight clothes that hug their curves, for a night. Although I'm best friends with very professional minded signs: Scorpio, Virgo, and Capricorn. My Virgo man best friend has his venus in libra and his mars in cancer but he prefers an intellectual connection, but affection is important to him. What's your venus and mars sign?

thank you for posting, SL

Spain, Romania and Columbia just made her a little thinner.

Many of them made her uglier (in my eyes)

True, all men have their tastes and its absolutely nothing wrong with that. I`ve just been around thin lovers for way too long that i have almost convinced myself that the curve lovers is just a dream, lol. Haha. My venus is in leo and my mars is in Libra. Why do you ask?

These men that you say prefer skinnier women? Where the hell are they at cuz as a pretty thin girl, I'm always being told by men that I could use a few pounds.

But it could be because I am black and black men and black culture idealize women with curves.

I've never been to Norway so I have no idea what the dating scene is like there. It's unfortunate that those men can't appreciate such a beautiful woman like you. I asked your venus and mars sign because they indicate relationship needs and how you express yourself them. Mine is a aquarius venus and capricorn mars (I'm very complicated haha). You have very good planetary signs for a venus and mars, I'm not sure why guys aren't as attracted to you as they should be. Maybe it's a pesky transit?

I was quite proud of these countries, LeeLoo!! Personally what I saw in this experiment was not the "ideal" body type, but the degree of celebration of the fact that body types come in every shape and every size.

I agree about making her uglier! Some of these photoshopers changed everything about her--from hair to facial expression to her toes so to speak.

Well, I would like to add:

First an foremost, at least to me, is personality and a sort of attraction that seems like an energy rather than anything observable.
With that, I've lived with a woman who was 215 pounds (she carried it VERY well!) all the way down to one woman that I remember was BARELY 100 pounds.
Big breasts, little breasts, 5 foot 1, up to 5 foot 10 in height.

My point is that attraction goes beyond all of this anyway. I have a wandering eye, but it in NO WAY means that I want to or would have any sexual contact. It's just looking.

There are all kinds of women, and all kinds of men with not only wide ranging physical preferences, but preferences about what's actually important and how important in a potential partner.
Also, I agree with Kannon.

Yeah.

I like your comment above.

Honestly I went through my single life believing men preferred thin women because that's what seemed to be happening all around me...thin girls getting asked out, curvy girls not as much.
