I have to say that, when I was younger (say, 14-17 yrs old), for whatever reason, I found myself attracted to the skinnier type women. You know the ones -- always popping up in television advertising. Quite likely just a target of popular marketing.

As I got older, I found my tastes changed to a more "realistic" body type. Don't confuse this with "settling", or being realistic about my expectations: I just identified with the fact that women of the world are not the waif-like model, on the average, and that there is a LOT to appreciate out there.

So now, I find myself attracted to two body types, really... the athletic type (really with any size breasts, but usually the body types are slightly muscular -- think female soccer player), and what I think of as the average type. The latter are probably anywhere between 130-160 lbs, from 5'3-5'9 in height. Again, breast size is not significant, but usually a b-cup or upwards.

Indicentally, I find it more enjoyable to walk down the street when most of the women seem attractive for one reason or another. Usually it's the way a woman carries herself, or "fits" into her body. Seeing women who are happy with their apperance is attractive.

I do think it's important that north american men (speaking as one myself, and knowing women who are subjected to ridiculous expectations) re-evaluate what constitutes average in society. Pornstar bodies are for entertainment purposes only, much like the guys who appear on the covers of men's health magazine, and in calvin klein ads (same goes for women in CK ads).

In the end, I respect the "to each his own" adage, but there's an awful lot to appreciate out there.

Hmm.. there was a question here somewhere. "Yes, I like women". Is that a good answer?
