Poll: are you are fat as you would like

[Ilikemilkshake]

I'm a guy, I'm 6 foot 1 (approx. 186cm) I don't look like any of those pictures. If anything I look more like the 15% woman. I probably won't ever be happy with how I look so it's kind of hard to vote as to what I'd prefer to look like, so I guess I won't.

 

[mysecondlife]

According to the picture, it puts me between 15 - 20%

Can't say for sure how accurate that picture is though.

 

[AngryMongoose]

How does... a low body fat by volume mean a high muscle mass (and dehydration)?

Supposedly 10%. (Edit: Another website puts me at 7%; I do not have access to calipers... or a tape measure...) My BMI tends to hover between 17.5-18.5, but I haven't measured precisely in some time. I technically have muscles, when I care to display them, but they barely show up between the surface of my skin and my bones.

I wouldn't mind being slightly bulkier, but my girlfriend thinks I'm cute like this, and I can't disagree : )
Though I occasionally just stare at my wrists.. amazed by how tiny they are...

 

[Ryotknife]

So lets see here, im male and it looks like....30%? seems to be a pretty high jump between 30 and 35% there. Dunno, somewhere between 30 and 35 i guess, although I dont have a belly like those men and have bigger moobs (man boobs).

As for ideal female, 35% female is RAWRR, although i wont say no to 30%.

Personally I would like to be....25% i guess? But i have an extremely hard time losing fat. I can gain muscle like crazy or significantly increase my stamina, but i cant seem to lose fat ever. Ive been overweight most of my life, yet have been pretty darn good at sports. Other than long distance running sports like soccer, I could easily keep up with people skinnier than myself. In hockey i was a demon of a defense player. People couldnt outrun me and i had the weight to throw them around.

Only downside is while i can run decently fast as a kid, I did have a harder time stopping my momentum which lead to a personal injury in high school gym. Nearly demolished someone half my size when they came out of my blindspot, went in front of me, and then suddenly froze like a deer when they saw me. Ended up having to jump over them and go shoulder first into a concrete wall at full force. I got a penalty for the rest of the game, but i really wasnt in a position to play after that anyways.

 

[Screamarie]

Male, about 30%. I like girls with 50% +.

Then you'll like me! Must be why your already on my friends list.

I am a female very much of the 50% type.

Am I happy about it? ...not really...but I'm not upset about it either. Rather indifferent.

What would I like to be? probably 35-40% or so, for health reasons (not that I have any problems yet, just that I know they can develop) and because I'm sick of having to buy plus-sized clothing that isn't NEAR as attractive as what is made for thinner women.

What does society tell me to be? Well I think the media generally sees women as needing to be 20-25% to be considered attractive, but if my minor in psychology is worth shit, men are usually more attracted to 30-35% range.

As for what I'm attracted to in a guy as far as body fat...once again rather indifferent. YAY apathy!

Oh yeah, how could I not? I must have added you a while ago. Though you don't look like 50% from your photo. *hides*

 

[Xarathox]

I have no idea what my actual fat % I am, but seeing as I'm 5' 10" and I'm lucky to weigh 120 lbs, I'm probably 3-4%. I am fucking skinny and nothing I've done has ever changed that.

Society pretty much treats me like shit, probably because of how jelly they all are of my natural mutant ability to not have to fret about getting fat, no matter what I stuff down my gullet.

As for what body type I like in women? The 15-35% range. I also don't mind some muscle on women, but it gets a little weird when they're too ripped.

Edit: Guess I should clarify that I am male.

I take it your talking about the profile picture...hell I had forgotten that was even there. That picture was just focusing on my hair because I had gotten a really awesome dye job for my college graduation but that was 2 years ago. I was really proud of it but now my hair is just black cause I can't afford any other colors.

Spoiler: This is an actual picture of me

 

[The_Echo]

I'd say I'm around 20%, as that's what I resemble the most. But I'm actually around 20 pounds underweight, so maybe it's less/more than that depending on muscle mass (I don't have much).

I'd like to remove some of my fat content, but by no means do I want to be muscular. I just don't think it'd be a good look for me. Muscles are gross.

 

[IamLEAM1983]

About 25%, and I'd rather be around 20. I'd happily settle for a 22 to 23% fat.

Ugh. I have a friend just like you. I'm obscenely jealous of your mad skills. I assume both you and my friend are X-men whose power happens to be less destructive than the rest.

OT: Female, probably around 25%-30% (to judge by the pictures in the OP)? Or 5'9", 135 lbs, take your pick. I'm fairly content with how I look, actually. Confident enough to wear a bikini - luckily, seeing as that's the only type of swimsuit that fits me correctly. But I wouldn't mind getting a bit more toned - I'm in shape enough to do 5ks, but my upper body strength is laughable.

We also have the ability to merge with our kind and produce Galactus levels of power... in our pants. Shhh, it's a secret though.

Also, you sound quite fetching.

 

[Saulkar]

I am 174 centimeters tall at 96 kilograms and about 15% body fat. I do a lot of working out and thus have a flat stomach but I would enjoy a little bit more definition though.

Spoiler: Here I am acting goofy

Spoiler: This picture shows my stomach and how thick my legs are XD

...Okay, now you really sound like my friend. Start making jokes about my boobs having their own gravitational field and I'll assume that he finally managed to clone himself.

And thanks, I guess.

 

[Zanderinfal]

I don't know how much of my body is fat, but I am only 45 Kg, which isn't heavy at all, I'm nearly 6 feet tall and slim. So... yes?

Haha, couldn't say since I've not seen an image. I'm more of an ass man anyways.

And, you're welcome. ^.^

 

[soren7550]

No idea. But if it helps matters, I'm 5'7" and somewhere around the 100 pound range. I'm guessing that'd put me in the very low end of body fat percentage, but I don't look a thing like those steroid monsters.

 

[DanielBrown]

Man, two meters tall, weighing 100kg last time I checked. Currently between 20-25%, I reckon.
Thanks to great genes it's really hard for me to get fat(spent the last three years seriously doing nothing but sitting on my ass, eating unhealthy and too much, drinking at least 1,5l Pepsi every day) and I build muscles quickly. There's a huge lack in willpower however, so even if I put my mind into it I grow bored fast.
I'm fairly indifferent as to how I look, though I gotta admit looking at old photos of the really slim me makes me a bit sad. I feel that I look a lot more manly now however, so I'd probably want to go back to <15%, but with more muscles.

Don't think society thinks anything about my body shape. They're probably more concerned with my waist-long hair.
With men in general I feel the expected body type these days are the 15% photo. Hairless, slim/fit men.

As for my ideal girl; I've been with most types, except the ones over 35% which I find disgusting, and my best experience was with the really fit ones. Can't identify the type on the pictures, but I suppose it's around 15%. I prefer the 25% build however.

 

[GeneralFungi]

I'm 5'7 and weight about 120 pounds. I'm skinny, but I don't have a lot of muscle definition (I'm so skinny my stomach only reaches past the rest of my chest when I inhale a lot of air or eat a very large meal.) I just have an effective metabolism. I don't really know where I fit on that scale, since my weight to height ration is wonky. Apparently 'low' weight for my height is 15 pounds more then I currently have. My weight is about 3 pounds less for a low weight female that is the same height, which is crazy. But I eat healthy and am pretty healthy according to my doctor. I guess it's just genetics as far as I can tell.

20% looks the most attractive to me on the man side, though anything between 20-35 looks nice. I don't like it when the abs are too pronounced, it just looks unnatural and almost weird. 4-5% is almost disgusting. And it's very unhealthy too.

"Ass man?" That's reassuring. That means my friend hasn't cloned himself. Should probably stop derailing the thread, though - if you want to chat, friend me or message me. Otherwise, nice chat, man. And I'm still jealous of your metabolism.
