Attraction comes in all shapes and sizes, and when it comes to body type, everyone has their unique preferences that get them excited. Whether it’s a certain physique or a feature that catches your eye, we all have something that drives us crazy. So, Adam4Adam readers, what body type really does it for you?
Over on Reddit’s r/askgaybros, the answers vary widely, showing just how diverse attraction can be. One user shares, “A little muscle or dad bod. Some hair on the chest.” For many, the appeal lies in a body type that’s fit but not overly sculpted, with a touch of natural masculinity like body hair.
Then there are those who are mesmerized by athletic physiques. “The Olympics taught me: Water Polo players,” posted another user. There’s something about the strength and agility of athletes that can really get people’s hearts racing. Don’t you think so, too?
But not everyone is hyper-focused on body types. Some users say it’s more about the overall vibe and connection than a specific physique. “Can I say all of them? I mean honestly, I like all body types, well maybe extremely obese is kinda pushing it but…. Honestly if I’m attracted to them face wise then I don’t care.” This speaks to the fact that attraction can transcend just the body and focus more on facial features or personality.
In fact, many people weigh personality and emotional connection just as highly as physical appearance. “I’m way more a face/personality person than a body one,” shared another user. Attraction is rarely just skin-deep, and for some, it’s the spark in conversation or the charm in a smile that leaves a lasting impression.
For those with more specific tastes, some Reddit users mention their love for distinct body types: “Twinks with tattoos” or “Muscular and lean.” The sleek, youthful appearance of twinks or the chiseled form of a lean, muscular guy can be a major turn-on for many. And then, there are those who just can’t resist the ruggedness of “bears,” whose burly, hairy physiques are the ultimate fantasy for some men.
But what about you, guys? What body type drives you wild? Whether it’s the soft, comforting look of a dad bod, the rugged masculinity of a bear, or the toned physique of a jock, there’s no right or wrong answer. Everyone’s tastes are different, and that’s what makes the dating scene so exciting!
Adam4Adam readers, we want to hear from you. What body type are you most attracted to and why? Does personality play a bigger role for you, or is there a certain physique that just makes your heart skip a beat? Let us know in the comments section down below!
I’m definitely into the bigger, beefy, husky guys. I wouldn’t call myself a “chubby chaser” though, as some of my friends call me. I’m more into a solid big guy, with muscle underneath the heft.
What I call, “nicely marbled” lmao! Muscular with some cuddliness.
I love the big chubby hairy guys. Something about furry man boobs just sets me off, and the sensation of a big hairy man’s body next to mine is mind-blowing.
Dad bods, hairy barrel chested, bald dad bods. My height or shorter. Extra body hair please.
As I have gotten more mature, I lean more toward the average body type between 185 to 235 pounds. A little belly is sexy.
Lean guys that are bigger and more developed than twinks but under 185 (height dependent) give me an immediate rise. IDK if there’s a word for them. I’ve heard “twunk”, but that just sounds silly and unappealing. Jason Stackhouse was a good example. I can be attracted to different body types though. Good T&A is always a go, nothing else really matters.
Baseball players and college wrestlers are my type. The perfect Olympic divers, gymnasts, swimmers, track and field runners, are not my type.
Of these guys: everyone but the 4th one “chub’s” ok, but he’s not chubby, I would consider him obese, actually. # one is classically husky, I like that.
I’m more attracted to a young, smooth skinny twink when I’m in a top mood. When bottoming, an older more mature man gets me excited. The older, the better.
Beefy hairy hung with a hot looking ass! Bottom but nothing sexier on a man than a beefy ass!
love my fellow Zebras with their light or creamy-colored skin and their beautiful, crystal blue eyes!
huh?
I have learned over the years that it’s the man not always the body.
I’ll take number 1, 3, or 5 Alex.
I tend to like most any body type. I especially like guys who present older (salt and pepper or grey haired) but younger mature guys are good too. Other than that, I’m not really hung up on looks. It’s more about his personality and attitude. Being a chubby guy, with a belly and big boobs (they kind of just appeared at puberty although I wasn’t chubby) I’d LOVE to find all of those chubby chasers out there, as I melt for guys that find my body attractive.
I didn’t see the pic I tried to attach to my comment, so I’m trying again.
A support bra mandate?
PS the trannies would be envious!
Gynecomastia is the abnormal non-cancerous enlargement of one or both breasts in males due to the growth of breast tissue as a result of a hormone imbalance between estrogens and androgens.
Dr. Jekyll? LOL!!! LOL!!! LOL!!!
Not when it is fat.
I love those boobs! If ur ever in Reno look me up on Adam at emitwennuf. I would love to be naked with you
Personally I don’t have an issue with anyone’s body type. I believe everyone has something to offer and have their own unique attractions towards the eye of the beholder. However, on a sexual note, because I’m a twinkish skinny white guy, I prefer a guy whose slim or masculine- not too masculine like a bodybuilder, but toned. Anyone bigger would crush me if I bottomed, unless I switched roles where I’m on top then I’m perfectly fine with chubbier guys even fucked a few chubby guys before. But what would really make me weak to my knees is a guy… Read more »
Body types aren’t important to me. I like a guy with some personality and good sense of humor. Confident enough to laugh at himself. I’ve connected with lots of guys in bars that, had I seen their photo on a post I probably would have just passed over
Dad bods all the way!!!
Personality of course and then in pic #’s 3 and 5 are my fave body types
Like a large older man. Hot sweaty chubby man
# 1 baby.. all the way… (including the being black..lol) i love a man like in #1 with a little meat on him… i find it to be a wonderful saddle to climb on top of and straddle down on when i go for a ride on top… and love to run my hands over his stomach while i look up at him while sucking on his rock hard cock… and to feel his mass behind me when fucking me from behind…. but not to heavy to crush me in missionary .. i also seam to be drawn to a… Read more »
I really don’t have a choice being 6’10, they’re ALL shorter, but I love shorter, stocky/muscular, but skinny is a firm no for me, personally, as I’m an XL- athletic build.
6′ 1″ Zebra slim, firm and toned it’s all good
im a mature man 69 who like men in shape ,average built, nicely equipped, hairy men, transgender, couples
I’ll take a HWP 50-70yo, sweaty furball to go please!
A guy could have a body that checks all the boxes for “smoking hot”, but because he’s selfish, self-centered, arrogant, and rude is an ugly ass.
A guy could have a regular, average
/less than average, nothing special body, but because he’s friendly, considerate, and respectful is astronomically attractive.
Physical characteristics have nothing to do with guys being attractive.
I agree with everything you say when choosing a platonic friend. Friends comes in all shapes and sizes. But its asking do you find them attractive. I admire all the positive traits you listed in a man. I’ve seen some obese men that aren’t attractive by any standard but may be great guys.
Applies to platonic But I wasn’t talking platonic. Was talking guys I’d want to meet for more.
I’m 6’6″ so a tall top is my favorite. He can be “average,” athletic, muscular or bearish, it all depends on how he carries it.
For a bottom to catch my eye, a short man with a bit of meat on his frame, whether baby-bear or muscle twink, works best.
There are always exceptions to the so called rules!
If I’m guy watching its a guy with wide back n nice lats. If I’m getting fucked a lil belly with hairy chest
Personally I like lean/thin/even lanky, smooth, twink, “school-boy” type dudes. But I do try to keep in mine that principle of personality/character. But I guess it’s that I like to be able to put my arms around him and maybe even pick him up and carry him if they’re thin enough.
Mmm you seem to be strong and I’m thin and a twink that loves being carried. So you’re definitely my type Danny!
Tall and athletic
Abs do not look natural to me. They are reptilian. A flat tummy is just fine, thank you, and so is padding. I like guys with olive skin, a hairy chest can be nice, interesting features, it’s not about a “type,” or category. Gym bodies tend to be boring because they all look the same. Especially with ugly tattoos. Dancers and swimmers have the best bodies. But I do like the wiry bodies, lean but with muscles, not skinny. Italian/Roman bodies…
No Father Hennepin don’t say such things! I’m lean and not very masculine but I do have a little bit of a six pack. And I’m still going to the gym to get my abs even more toned out hopefully before the winter arrives. Now you’re going to make me feel reptilian once I enhanced them. ☹ But it’s ok I still love you Hennepin. ❤
In my experience, the body type that I like generally doesn’t like me and vice versa. It’s a story as old as the hills…
Oh you too? Thought I was the only one who encountered that problem!
dont care as long as dick is hard
Muscular….very fit….tiny waists……v-torso….like mine.
I admire and very attracted to fit and toned body types but I’ve been with so many different body types throughout my life that it doesn’t really matter as much like it used to when I was younger. My attraction now is way beyond body type.
