Dear Poll: Stacked or Slender?

Are you attracted to a specific body type? I like tall guys with a medium build, but I have friends that are really into the skinny, artsy type. I like bigger guys because they make me feel small, but I can appreciate why lanky men like Hayden Christensen are considered sex symbols. So ladies, since we all have such different taste in men, tell me this: Do you like guys that are stacked like Nick Lachey or slender like Adrien Brody?

    I don't think Nick looks all that stacked. I mean he's average in the build range. Someone like Tito Ortiz is stacked.

    As far as myself I like 'em tall tall tall-my boyfriend is 6'6" and I wouldn't have it any other way. I also don't like super skinny guys, or short guys. I like 'em at least 6' or taller.

    And I like average build, nice and strong.

    I'm a very petite woman so stacked guys scare me! It's frightening to think they could crush and kill you with their strength.

    I like adverage!
    I can't stand men who are way too bulky!
    My man is 6'2" (I love tall guys) but he isn't ripped. He has nice shoulders and arms which I love love love Smiling

    My sweetie is just right. He's not "stacked" but his pecs and legs are great, and he has an *ss like a Greek God. IMHO, Perfecto!

    I like them all, except those that look like total meat heads. Nick is more toned and fit rather than "stacked," but I hate those types that are huge. Yuck.

    It depends on the man. I love big strong men, but I also think Adrien Brody is so sexy. I think it's his nose! My taste in men is odd. I love a rough looking man. Strong face, hairy chest, big nose... LOL!

    Javier Bardem... Yummy!

    I don't like a lot of big ,bulging muscles. They kinda remind me of balloons. My boyfriend is slender, which suits me just fine Eye-wink

    I'm a skinny petite. So, naturally, I like my slender nerd boy. And, yeah, I'm quite impressed with him. He's a lot stronger than he looks.

    I'm short with a medium build, but I love the tall skinny guys. My first crush was one of those tall gangly boys in middle school, so maybe I like the type because I never got over him!

    I love my guys tall and definitely thin/slender. My current boyfriend is just like that. My friends tease me and say I like the heroin chic boys: tall, thin, and pale. What can I say, I love a thin guy, but one that is slightly muscular.

    Either one, just as long as he isn't overly-stacked or really bony. I guess I prefer middle-range.

    Average, I guess. My boyfriend is average.

    I'm fairly tall and slender, and once dated a guy who weighed a little less that me! Too scrawny!

    no preference. if you line up all the guys in my life they probably wouldn't resemble eachother at all. i do have to say that i'm very attracted to my 6'2" 170 pound boyfriend. he's a tall, lean drink of water

    It REALLY depends...not stacked like 'meat head' stacked, but not to skinny like emaciated or anything. I like them right in between.

    I like a guy with a functional and flexible body. Ideally I like the triathletes, yogis, and rock climbers over the guys that do power weights. They tend to be slimmer as a result but usually have more endurance.

    I'm nowhere near petite, but I've always gone for the slender type. My boyfriend is 6'3" and 160, so he's really lean, but rather surprisingly also very strong and quite muscular (not six-pack though, bummer Eye-wink ). And in general, lean men are just more appealing to me.

    I'm surprised at how many ladies are saying they like tall and skinny!
    I never would have thought! Nothing wrong with that. I myself dont prefer it, but it's an eye opener to see how people's tastes really do differ.
    I like all men really as long as they are a nice PERSON on the inside.

    "I don't think Nick looks all that stacked. I mean he's average in the build range. Someone like Tito Ortiz is stacked."

    I totally agree!

    I don't like overly muscular guys, but I am not attracted to the skin and bones look, either. To me, Nick is in between... and I do think he's got a nice physique.

    I don't really like stacked and muscley. After going out to eat, I would feel that a stacked guy had to go straight to the gym to work it all off. There's no fun in that. I like a little meat on the bones Smiling

    I like them tall, but I also have a soft spot for the shorties. My boyfriend is 5'6" whereas I'm 5'9". It makes life interesting. It doesn't really matter to me what the build type is.

    I love tall men with a medium build, not so much stacked though. I'm short with an athletic build, so skinny boys make me feel as if I could break them. My fiance is a foot taller than me and has a nice medium build, has some tone but still has a little meat on him. Just the way I like it!

    I think I could be attracted to both body types, but somewhere in the middle is best for me. No muscle man, but not scrawny. And not really tall/really thin guys...that just doesn't appeal to me at all. If he's tall, he has to be at least of average build.

    I also don't think I could be attracted to an overweight guy either.

    Not overly to any end on the spectrum. If it suits the person, then it works.

    My boyfriend is 6'1" and 230 pounds. He's definitely intimidating. Smiling

    I like my men over 6'. I am 5'9", and I wear heels all the time.

    I am very teeny tiny but for some reason I love built guys...they can lift me up and I feel sort of "protected". Just not too big, I weigh 100 so I don't want to me crushed!

    But, I hate guys that are too tall! I'm only 5'2" and 92 lbs so 6' is as tall as I'll go guy-wise. And if they're tall, they better be jacked.

    I like a tall guy with lean, compact muscles. He should look slender, but also be fit enough to pick me up!

    I am ALWAYS attracted to the tall skinny guys with floppy hair and emo glasses.

    But I think it's because in general someone who is super muscular probably spends a lot of time in the gym, which doesn't intrigue me at all. I prefer guys who are bookish, intellectual, maybe kinda nerdy just because I feel like i have a lot more in common with them. So I think the exterior type goes with the interior type that I like, if that makes sense.

    (Which isn't to say that intellectual men can't be stacked and vice versa, but I just don't think I would have much connection with a guy who spent 2 hours a day in the gym.)

    Plus, I love to cook and bake, so I need someone who I can fatten up and who won't worry about losing his sixpack! Eye-wink

    I looove skinny guys. Seriously. If you're gangly and geeky, I will probably be all over you. My boyfriend and my best friend both fit into the same size pants (and that would be a size 4 - I kinda hate them both, haha!).

    I honestly don't like muscular guys at all. If I'm with a group of girls and they're talking about some celebrity's hot body, I'm always the odd one out.

    But yeah. Skinny boys ftw.
