MattizzleParticipantSince not having a girlfriend for quite some time, I have come to the understanding that girls love a guy who works out and gets all dressed up. I’m a decent guy, who can treat people well, but when i go out with friends, it’s impossible to do anything when I am around he-man bodybuilders. Should I join a gym? Will that increase my chances?

Ann L. LowensteinParticipant1)Are you obese, or just not ‘ripped’? 2) Actual, adult women (as opposed to adolescents in grown-up bodies) tend to prefer men who are trim and fit, rather than gym rats. 3) If you have no personality, or a rotten personality, once the initial attraction wears off it will be all over except the crying anyway. 4)Try meeting women some place other than bars or the beach. (Libraries, book stores, supermarkets, etc.). I suspect your success rate will increase exponentially. 5) If all else fails, try vacationing in the U.S., where your accent will be as honey to flies. 😉

Mr. BennetParticipantOne easy thing men can do to be more noticed is to develop their muscles – you have confirmed that yourself. But before you go to the gym just to get muscles (and not just a healthier body), look around at 2 things: 1-The kind of places you are going to to find a female partner: if there you can only find women interested solely in muscles, you might ask yourself if those are the kind of women you are interested in; 2-Pay attention to how many ‘ugly’ or not-so-good-looking/attractive men are walking hand-in-hand with women: girls are not so beauty-driven as men – they are usually more interested in kind, caring and respectful men.

LaurieParticipantI think it depends on which circles you travel in. In some circles, yes. In other circles, women are much more interested in a man who is kind, or responsible, or intelligent.

Merry B.ParticipantMuscles are fine, but a fit, well-toned body is just as sexy without being intimidating. Are you fit? Are you well-groomed? Are you…hygeinic? Most women I know, including myself, wouldn’t give a slob a second glance regardless of how developed (or un-developed) his muscles. Personally I’m more attracted to a guy who dresses well than one who can’t find a shirt that buttons around the neck. If you ARE fit but not musclebound, forget the gym and spend the money on a session with a fashion and grooming consultant. Like the old song says, ‘Every girl’s crazy ’bout a sharp dressed man.’

NadègeParticipantKeep in mind that how you present yourself determines who give you a second glance. The women who go after he-men are looking for a physically strong man to show off, protect them, etc. I get the impression that women who go after these men are a bit more shallow because they are judging solely on appearence. Also look at where you’re going- if you go out to a bar, you will have different odds than if you went to an art show or book signing, where people might be more interested in what you have to say as opposed to how much you can bench.

Mrs.TParticipantMy friend was on facebook showing me her friend’s boy friend. He was one of the ugliest people I’d ever seen. I said “Why would she date him” and she said “He has really hot abs” It does matter. So there.

Albimontevon BeretulaParticipantYou dont have to become he-man, just a bit of workout can do wonders. You look and feel better and the chicks note that.

GuyGuyersonMemberAs a very muscular guy with dry spell issues of my own. I think the answer is that when you are having no luck with women you see hot women with guys who seem your opposite. Women are just as shallow as men and are attracted to status and popularity like men are attracted by raw good looks. But they aren’t lying when they claim personality is important. A rich intellegent handsome shy guy is zero competition to a less than average dumb poor guy with confidance and a great personality. The two easiest ways to increase your odds are to work on your personality, (project confidance,be quick to break the ice, be funny and flitratious)and be where there are alot of single attractive women. Getting in great shape is only good for your own confidance.
