Recent study on six pack abs

[Guest]

[QUOTE=Prodigy;36382] Were talking about brad Pitt from fight club vs. Michael cera from Superbad.[/QUOTE]

I think the words of each side's argument are falling on deaf ears. The fitness centric guys of the board think it's the pinnacle of success with the opposite sex. Those who don't care too much about fitness think the same results can be achieved without a 6-pack. There has to be much more to the man than abs that a pilgrim can wash a tunic on. Women aren't as visual as you and I. Women look at a guy and postulate what KIND OF guy he is, which is different from the way we typically look at women (various levels of hot/not.)

I understand that you CAN find chicks that are all aboot the super fit guy, but that's what they are in to.

Ever hear a chick say they're in to rocker guys? In my mind, this kind of guy has a skinny/lanky/emaciated bod type. That's not 6-pack abs.

The article isn't Fatty vs. Adonis...it's "average" vs. Adonis. "Average" includes "fit" in my perception of the scale.

I guess, in the end, it really boils down to what you feel you need to be comfortable with yourself to get what you want. More power to you when you figure it out for yourself.

Smirks, you are right. The argument is falling on deaf ears. Nobody ever said you have to look like Adonis to pick up women. Try re-reading everything. What we did say is that girls do, in fact, like the lean muscular look.

The fitness minded guys know that girls like it. The non-fitness minded guys can't fathom (or don't want to) that a girl just might like the ripped look.

Such a generalization. Fitness minded guy THINKS all girls like it, when in reality, only some do. Others could care less.

This is ridiculous. We all understand that there are preferences, but when speaking in generalities, women prefer a six pack over none. It's impossible to ignore that.

Just as how some men prefer women with small boobs vs big tits, but generally speaking, MOST men prefer women with big tits.

Some men prefer big women. But generally speaking, MOST men prefer girls that are slim/slender vs. thick/fat.

Though women are not as visual creatures as men, women prefer men with six pack vs men without. Done. End of story.

Honestly, I don't understand how this is still a topic for discussion...

This is so simple. OK, pretend you're taking a class called Attraction 101. You want to ace Attraction 101, so that you can get somewhere with this lady. One paper in that class is looks. It's worth about 20 percent of your grade. Average slim gets a B on the paper. Six pack gets an A. Fatty McBaldy gets a D. You can still ace the class even with a B on one paper.

What are you basing this on? Doesn't seem to be based on any type of scientific data/study result. This is your PERCEPTION. Based on the results of this Australian study, women don't necessarily prefer a 6-pack over not having one.

Let's apply your mentality to some other things: Whites are uptight. Black people like pigs feet. Gay men wear glitter. Asians know some form of martial arts. Mexicans build houses. Jews are good with money. Middle Easterners are terrorists.

You are both making these statements as if they are absolute...I adamantly believe they are not.

You need to have a study that just shows stomachs. Not the head, arms, chest, face, legs. JUST the stomach. Then I think you can have a very good study.

I think probably the 6 pack leaning towards just a very nice flat defined stomach would win.

I remember when I was playing a ton of tennis and was very close to a 6 pack or even had one. I would get compliments from girls when I was fucking them and they touched the area more.

In my PUA days I have fucked a billion times more girls without the 6 pack or close to it and never got a compliment on my stomach. Not that I was fat or flabby or anything but it just wasn't defined really in any manner.

A girl will surely fuck you or date you even if you don't have a 6 pack or defined stomach. I don't think that is in debate. A girl will lust for you a little more if you have a kickass stomach.

We should probably go read that study. I bet they were comparing super ripped 6 packs to guys with just flat non fatty stomachs. So even the guys with flat stomachs probably had good physiques and would get a lot of votes for that.
