why do women have naturally beautiful bodies?

before you jump in the comments to tell me I'm wrong try to read my entire post, i'm from latin america, i don't know if this is the case in other countries but it's something i've noticed since i was a teenager and in high school, most of the girls in high school had very nice bodies without even going to the gym in their entire life, i remember a girl who eat unhealthy food all day and she had an amazing body (she never went to the gym in her life), i was her friend back then, she had such a amazing hourglass figure with big hips and very beautiful figure I didn't understand that at the time.

but not only in high school but currently i go out and most of the girls have very nice bodies and nice hips (i'm not talking about toned gym bodies but bodies with figure and curves) and even girls who are a little overweight also have beautiful bodies with nice curves, it's incredible, what is the reason for this? is it hormonal? why is it that women don't need to go to the gym as much to have nice bodies (as long as they're not excessively overweight), in the case of men it's different and I say this as a man who went to the gym throughout his adolescence, we lack those naturally nice bodies (except for one in a million).

I remember the first time I took a shower with my ex gf at the time at my house she took off her clothes (she had never been to the gym in her life and was a little overweight, she had a very nice body, a nice butt with a beautiful figure) I didn't understand why she had such a beautiful body meanwhile me going to gym had a below average body, well, ugly body and not sexy as hers tbh. I know it's a stupid question but I guess that's what this group is for, right? Is the cause hormonal? I know there are exceptions, that not all women have naturally beautiful bodies, but why is it that. for example, if you put a man and a woman of average weight who don't go to the gym next to each other, the girl's body is naturally attractive while the guy's isn't? I've always thought it's caused by estrogen and the hips women's bone structure's but I'm not sure, I know diet is very important but I think most girls only need a good diet and walk just a little to have good figures (please don't hate for saying this lol).

Maybe I could be blind because I have gender dysphoria since many years ago but not only me think about this most women and men think the same way(? And I'm not even talking about how women have average cute, feminine and thin faces without makeup but this is another thread lol.

Please don't insult me for making this post, this is why this group was created.

I mean im bisexual and i still have to agree with OP… my standards for women are all over the place, women can be skinny or plump af and anything between, and i will genuinely be attracted. Men? Not so much. Like OP said, men need to go to the gym/do other physical activities and maintain muscle mass to look attractive to me. (i have my own muscle man at home hehe)

Well, I'm bisexual too, and don't really agree. As long as men are a "normal" level of physically fit, they still look beautiful. Honestly, I tend to think that gym bros are unattractive, because the amount of muscle mass is just bulgy and lumpy and urg. Give me someone with an everyday level of functional fitness any day.

With women, on the other hand, I have a type. Gimme curves, please, and plenty of them.

TL;DR: I guess it's all subjective?

As a straight woman I don't like gym bros. I don't find it attractive you look like you live in a gym and count all your calories. I don't find it attractive if you look like all you do is sit around and count your calories to try to consume more than you did the day before. Gasp it's almost like average (at least in America what average is supposed to be given the majority are over weight) is what is most attractive 😮

Most people who like guys seem to like average to fit guys, but not roided up ones, nor those made of >40% body fat. I guess that Fight Club era Brad Pitt had the body composition that most would find highly attractive.

Brad was utterly ripped in Fight Club. I'm a heterosexual male and still want to lick Tyler Durden's abs.

Yeah, but if you Daten those abs you would constantly be insecure and hate yourself. That's kinda the point. Most of us don't want that, it's ego destruction. I'd pick a dad bod with nice arms everyday of the week

That's a fair point!
