In college and elsewhere I've endured plenty of talk about "body image" and the like

Previously on this site I've mentioned how the CDC's data debunks the popular narrative of the egregious double standard regarding gender and weight- that man are "allowed" to be way fatter than women and that society's full of obese dudes and starving women- as being firmly rooted in the middle-class white perspective which dominates the discourse on most "feminist" topics

Going even further: Does Black America invert the whole "Body Image" paradigm as a whole? Recently it seems I've heard a number of women say they don't like guys who are too built/ripped, and even state their preference for husky, bearded guys; but looking back it it these women were like 95% white. Do black women place more emphasis on a man's physical strength/physique

No.

Black women and white women are pretty much identical when it comes to ideal mates.

Tall, musculer (not bodybuilder) men.

Well the height thing is universal lol ... but I'm telling you I'm hearing more and more (mostly white) women say they don't really like guys with visibly muscular builds, and even prefer dudes with a lil extra "cushion".

Personally I think this further supports my theory that white women's psychology is dominated by their relationship w/ their father :sas2:

All women want the 1 ideal body regardless of race.

It's men who are less superficial about that really.

Look at the one million porn categories men get...

dikk is important. Height is rather important. Not too skinny and not too big (buff or fat).

Ww love big dikks and height just as much as bw. That's why they fetishsize BM and expect all to be packing.

Well in this instance you might be right in some scenarios. I have black female friends that wont date anyone their height or shorter. The few non black friends (all races) i do have dont consider height as a requirement. But they do value a face they find attractive. :ld:

I could care less about looks. Its all about your personality and vibe :manny: (in real life of course)


I also encounter a lot of black women (myself included) that find all body types attractive, husky men snd slim/average men alike.

Don't listen to what they say, watch what they do. Go on Instagram and you can see yourself the guys who are the most popping are in shape, good looking guys.

:mjlol:All that I don't like guys too ripped is a damn lie, usually average or out of shape women say.

In most cases of a chick hits the gym ever day there going to prefer their man to be well built.

Having broad shoulders, v shape back and lower torso are considered attractive by all women.

Its average body guys on my timeline getting 300 to 400 likes on pictures though !

Their looks and/or attire, social media presence, real life popularity, or great posts got them poppin. :yeshrug:


Yall need to get out more and realize people interact and date just to be happy and enjoy life. Especially young people between 21-30.

@BlackAchilles.
My understanding of this issue is that Black women don't put more emphasis on a man's physique. They just put more emphasis on black men's physique versus other attributes because black and other women assume black men have less to offer in general outside of our physique.

Hence the most common and easily attainable means a black men can compete with other men on the dating playing field is with having superior physique (a trait in born to some but not all black men)
