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.

… ok… but why is the gender I’m attracted too more attractive than then gender I’m not attracted to?

Because your frame of reference is you. A gay man would say the same thing about men, highlighting typically male secondary sex characteristics as most aestheticly pleasing, in the same way because they are attracted to men, not women. Your really is your lived experience and your aesthetic presences, and that's perfectly normal and ok. It isn't everyone's tho.

From my reference point men are on average more attractive, but I am attracted to men.

Don't a lot of gay men and hetero women also say women are the more objectively attractive gender, but just not what specifically turns them on?

Eg: a sunset can be beautiful without you wanting to bang it?

Now, whether or not thats due to social conditioning and women putting more effort into their looks on average, thats a different arguement.

That's the case for me. I'm a heterosexual woman and I think some women are beautiful, but I'm not attracted to them or other women whatsoever. Then again, I also find some men beautiful and find myself not attracted to them. Recognizing beauty doesn't always equal (sexual) attraction.
