I have an odd question. Well I think it is...but I want to ask it because I am curious....

If your guy/girl (not talking about pregnancy) from food/beer is that a turn off? Is that something that bothers you?


If they got a belly...would it be a turn off?

Prefer it? Are you saying you'd be disappointed if he developed a ripped six pack?

That's like asking a woman who's husband already has a ripped six-pack "Are you saying you'd be disappointed if your husband developed a belly?"

What do you think the answer would be? For most people: "He's my husband, and I'd love him no matter how he looks." But in the back of their minds they are probably thinking "... but my preference is the way he is now."

So is true for me as well, but everyone has a preference. Nothing wrong with that. And mine is not a six-pack. A "ripped guy" has never turned my head in my entire life. I tend to look away when a guy is so-called "ripped" because the impression I get from that is "Look at me, I try too hard" :D Of course that's not what it actually says, but for me it's just not all that attractive *shrugs* :)

No, it doesn't bother me.

My guy's stomach is as flat as mine (in other words, really flat and you can see abdominal muscles) and that's what I prefer as well. But I wouldn't be bothered if he got a belly or got a ripped six pack lol. We're both teenagers too, so it's kinda unrealistic to expect him to be in the same physical state he is now 20 years in the future.

I was reflecting on this the other day, and I prefer a teeny bit of a belly. Not a full-on gut, but when my man and I first got together, he had the cutest little belly - it was nice to rest my head on lol!!! It's grown a bit since then, as has mine... ideally I'd like to see us both lose a bit of weight once we're married, but I don't want him to have a flat stomach!! I'm absolutely crazy about a little bit of belly. Lol. So weird...

I really hope that my boyfriend never develops a large belly. It would remind me too much of my emotionally abusive father. He has a little bit of chub right now because he lost quite a bit of weight right before I met him.

I have a really big belly and my boyfriend loves it. He isn't attracted to thin/normal girls.

My ex-bf had a belly and it didn't bother me at all... or him. His poor tenants saw him running around without a shirt all the time. I'm sure they didn't appreciate his belly as much as I did. The scary thing is that I was concerned this wasn't just belly fat. He was rounded from chest down and I asked him to get his liver enzymes checked after a mono incident, but alas, no insurance and not a priority with him.

Anyway, he was sexy to me.

Those are kind words, ladies, but one rarely finds such open-mindedness out in the real world.


Actually, you do! I ain't lying, I think that a little bit of tummy is incredibly sexy! I dislike muscles - a little in the arms is OK, but I could live without them. I think I'm basing my preferences on the way my fiance looks, but meh. I literally prefer a bit of tummy to a flat tummy, and I'll preach it till the cows come home!!

My boyfriend is not heavy, but he has a little bit of a gut. I can't say i love it, I wouldn't mind if he flattened it out, but it's mostly a health issue to me. He's very huggable, which has always been a turn on for me, and I know that if he lost the belly and was suddenly ripped it would be like hugging... a rock. I like my teddy bear the way he is :)
