Agreed - thin is so much less important than it's made out to be ;)

Take the girl on some random magazine cover, and add 10-15 pounds and you've probably got it about right.

More like 20-30 lbs of combined muscle and fat.

I'd rather like to think "fit" is in. As long as a person appears to be taking care of their body through exercise, diet, or whatever, it's all good.

Guess it depends on the magazine. But it's the same idea; realistically, the 'beautiful' women on magazine covers are mostly significantly too thin.

To be honest, I thought Renée Zellweger looked best in Bridget Jones' Diary. A role she had to gain 20 or so lbs for.

I like a zoftig but not rubenesque figure.

My wife and her twin have great figures. 5'7" about 125-135.
I know a lot of guys would consider them unfit or fat. They'd be wrong.

Yep, she looks great. That's the same body type I like. I'll even go a little bigger if she has double Ds. :D

It's all about shape, not size for me. I like the hourglass shape with soft curves.

Women under about 12% start looking pretty gross IMHO. I very much appreciate an athletic woman, but too ripped just isn't attractive.

I like the "pooch" personally... to an extent. Also people just look fatter on TV and in magazines than in real life. That's why actors and models have to be so thin just to look slim on film.

Too thin is when bones start sticking out. Or when the body looks too lean. It makes a person look unhealthy, and it's not at all attractive.

For me, I'd say 25%. Women natually have a much higher body fat content then men. I think it is under 20% and they start having irregular periods.

Depends on the girl...my "ideal" girl is fairly thin, as I am too...my ex was 5'3" and about 95 pounds, so that was a good size for her...great little body. Right now, I'd be looking for someone 5'8"-5'10" who was in shape and thin...it could vary. Although I'm beginning to realize that I'm far too picky physically and mentally, so I imagine that my expectations will be lowered in the near future :)
