The kind of hypermuscularity that body builders have looks unattractive on any gender imo and not just aesthetically. It also is a clear message that they will not eat taco bell and watch Pokemon reruns at 2 AM with me.

I'm not a woman. I find extremely muscular people unattractive among all genders. There's a point where it switches from fit to grotesque.

No, not attractive. That's a man who spends a LOT of time in the gym, looking at himself in the mirror. He eats and drinks weird stuff and possibly is on drugs that make him angry. Not my cup of tea.

Weird that most of the comments here are about muscular women.

We hen it gets to veins popping out, count me out.

I know for me women who are fit and toned, attractive. Once a woman is muscular, attractive falls off a cliff

I like my guys to be cuddly. Ahnold ain't cuddly.

Yes. The amount of time a man spends in the gym to build muscles like that is inversely proportionate to how much time he has available to spend fortifying a relationship with a woman.

Personally, I do not find men (or women) that are as built as that photo of Arnold attractive. I do like nicely-toned arms though, I am definitely an "arms" chick, as in, I find muscular arms in particular attractive. But there's definitely a point where if the muscles are too big, it starts to be less appealing.

Nicely toned is probably ideal. But I prefer skinny than overly muscular like body builders. Tall and skinny or lanky was pretty much my type especially when I was younger. Now my husband has a bit of fat around the belly and I love that too.

For science, it's cool. For snuggles, it's not for me.

Is this a question for straight women only or can a pansexual guy answer? Personally I've a thing for fbb's but with guys it doesn't do anything for me. Turns me right off.

Not into dudes, but my guy friends seem to like their men more muscular than my women friends

Not attractive at all to me. I don't mind if a guy is toned, but muscular is really unattractive to me. The thing with attraction is that it's individual, and I know some women who would love this look, I tend to like geeky guys, but I have friends who like big guys, bald guys, short guys, skinny guys, attraction is just super individual.

Not a woman, but I am pan and no I don't find this kind of body attractive. In anyone. Normal tone where muscle is obvious, but not the main show so to speak, is the limit for me.

I personally (bi man), like both really muscular women and men

No, that level of vanity is unattractive to me

Go look up thirst trap woodchopping videos or channels of people really good at whip cracking. The type of natty, muscular physique these people have is great.

Where I'm personally turned off is when people start to use steroids to go beyond how bodies look when they're natty jacked because of an active hobby or job (talking about the look---it's ok to get muscles at the gym instead.).

Fwiw, I'm strictly talking about muscles here, regardless of fat. If built, construction homies have a lean look or if they are a teddy bear, it's all cool with me.

TLDR; Steroids can make muscles unattractive.

Do not like the Arnold level picture, but I like strong people. From my understanding of muscular & strong people, strength muscles =/= show off muscles, and you can be strong without spending all day at the gym.

Even though we generalize that we’re attracted to categories like men and women I think most people are only attracted to a handful of singular people rather than a whole gender (or a more muscled or less muscled subset of one).
