skinny guy trend.

Ive seen it coming for a long time now but this epidemic has finaly hit right in my own home.
Last night after working a 13 hour shift i went home changed into gym clothes and asked my 16 year old brother if he wanted to go to the gym with me. he replyed that "muscles are grose and girls like skinny guys".I had to double check "you mean ripped, right?" he said no just skinny.

So I went without him (fuming with anger). Wen I got to the gym I starte to notice that all the other guys were on cardio equipment and they looked like anorexic girls that would be cute with boobs and face-work.

I blame Abercrombie, they're shit doesnt fit me annyway.

Lets hear some input from guys and girls.

It's a hollywood fad. It'll pass. No matter what happens there is still the fact of "survival of the fittest". These fads come and go but the one thing that always holds true is that women will always want the 1. best looking 2. best shaped 3. wealthiest man that they can get. It's human nature and going against it is an unnatural process of thought.

Look at any point in history and the "Best" women available always went for men with looks, power, and good genetics.

I'll not go that deep Tom, but I agree 100% with you.

Skinny guys over fatasses yes, but I'm sure most women would take a 6 foot 240lb beast of a man @ about 8% over any 6 foot 155lb puss.

for some reason I realy think they would rather have the puss. than the beast theese days, and it pains me emotionaly.

young girls maybe, but once they are interested in taking on a life partner, they always want the guy with strong genetics. Young girls are SOOOOO impressionable by the media that they are brainwashed into thinking things are "Cool" and will do whatever is coolest in the eyes of thier friends.

Too much estrogen in the food nowadays......woman like other woman and girly men.

Well too many fat f**ks out there too. I can't even pick up a long sleeve shirt in my size. If the sleeves and lenth are good it fits like a freakin' circus tent. I wear short sleeve year round. Same with my damn pants. I have a 34 waist if the waist is good they are high waters. Good lenth and a 54 in waist. I should not have to go to a BIg and Tall place to get fashions from ten years ago!

Ive seriosly been told buy girls that ive asked out "Your too muscular". I'm just going to have to start picking up fitness mods who can appreciate 5'6.5" 180lbs, 51" chest, 29"waist.

I feel your pain GW I have too wear nothing but dress clothes. Its to d*mn hard to find a 17" neck with my short ass arms that doesnt go down to my knees. So I have to buy XL's and have them all taylor'd for 20 bucks a pop.Damnitt!!!!

GW, try to find fitted long sleeve collar shirts. They taper the torso part just a bit in.

Having been the skinny guy, I'll pop in my 2 cents worth. Those of you who know me and have seen my posts know that I started out at 130lbs, 6' tall. I worked out hard and had made it to 150-155 by eating a lot and using creatine--this was almost six and half years ago. After I had been married for a couple of years (and I had gained to 180lbs), we were talking about our initial attractions when we met. After I told her I used to weigh only 130lbs, she said she probably would not even have gone out with me for the first date if I had still been like that.

She tells me that she doesn't want me to become a huge 250lb monster, but at my current weight of 200lbs, she repeatedly tells me how much she loves my muscular ass. That tells me she likes my body more at this size than what it was when we first got married because I know I didn't have that great of an ass when I only weighed 150.

I think most women like men to be big and muscular, but not over the top like Ronnie Coleman.

Even I've had trouble finding shirts that fit right. Can't imagine how it is for you bigger guys. I just made the transition to a 17" neck myself, and while the sleeves fit, some shirts are just cavernous.

Glen I hear ya man I once spent 4 hours in the mall with my ex looking for a pair of jeans that would fit-guess there isn't a market for a 225lb guy that has a 32 inch waist-she thought it was funny not me

as for the girls that go for the skinny guys they are all laten lesbians or infactuated with Leonard De'Crappio...remember him in What's Eating Gilbert Grape-that's what I see when I see some chick with a scrawny dickhead

and by the way for the cheap seats I use to be a scrawny dickhead-6'1 and a whoping 145lbs when i got out of high school-never got any chicks though

I've always been big, and was very insecure about it in high school. When I was 14 I was 6'3" and weighed 250lbs. that was my freshman year. I started working out that year and turned it into more muscle than fat. I didn't even have a girlfriend that was in high school with me, I had to date girls in thier mid to late twenties and tell them I was going to college ever day. High school girls didn't want anything to do with me back then, they where all scared of me. I was a bit of a recluse, but looking back on it, I'm sure the other guys where envious of me because my girlfriends where actually putting out.

Its all in the eye of the beholder. My wife hates skinny guys a friend of mines wife likes the Brad Pitt look.

Fight Club brad or Troy brad. He's actually prety yoked in Troy.

you know what poof your not too far from the truth...
I use to be a stripper (yeah no shit) not the reviews but private parties
and when I did parties with sorority chicks or really drunk girls in their 30s that really was the way it was...
sometimes I had to do a party with another guy (they would order 2 guys)
and if the other guy was smaller than me the girls would use him as stand by because they wanted their pics taken with the buff not with Kid Rock

speaking of which-if neither was a celebrity and you stuck Kid Rock in the same room with The Rock who do you think would get more chicks? My point exactly

I agree with that. When I was 135lbs. chicks didn't even give me a second look. Once I started putting on muscle they started to appear left and right. Now at 5'9" 190 I got a hot ass girlfriend so I can't complain. Says she doesn't want me to get any bigger though. I do see what you're saying though...seems like chicks nowadays like the "thinner" guys. I personally look the way I do for myself and no one else though so I could care less.

u know what i say fuckem i used to be very skinny in high school and i aint goin back down only up

Changes for me have been so gradual, my wife doesn't really notice them until it's "too late." By then she's already become used to it.

i think that girls now a days like the "skinny" look because everyones so god damn fat! I mean serioulsy fellas....walk down the street or anywhere and tell me how many meat headz you see? Not many. But tell me again how many fucking fat shits you see walking around.....alot! buff guys are outnumbered....skinny is the next best thing i guess
