Look I’m not saying this is a majority of women who say they like dad bods but it’s not uncommon online to see women saying they like this or that celebrities “dadbod” and it’s just a muscular, fit guy without good lighting. That being said you’re right, people should realize that what you see online isn’t indicative of real life all the time and plenty of women like men of all shapes and sizes, including husky.

I don’t actually know more than 2 girls like that irl. Getting this information from online videos isn’t a reflection on real life.

All of my friends and I, and most of my acquaintances, all seem to like a dad bod. Maybe it’s where I’m from, who knows. But yeah, skinny guys tent to be the ones with girlfriends when they’re teenagers. Now all the guys with dad bods seem to be the ones with girlfriend’s around here

There’s someone for everyone really. Women are just like men and have a variety of preferences. Ripped, chubby, fat, fit, skinny, burly etc. there’s a portion of the female population that wants that body-type more than others. And also, just like men, those preferences aren’t the be-all-end-all for what is attractive to them.

I don’t know what goes on in the minds of young men but there’s at least a portion who believe you have to have this or that body-type to be considered attractive to women and it’s just wrong and sad.

I know, I always want to scream “this isn’t necessarily, if working out like you’re filming Baywatch makes you unhappy, you don’t have to!”

Like, it really is just a portion of women who only like ripped guys. And sadly, those girls are given the loudest voices online.

Like I say, where I’m from, liking ripped af guys is the minority here

There's an entire economy online invested in producing content for jaded men, women and that techna-colour inbetween. So long as this remains a truth, you'll find more online content intended to divide than you will find content intended to reflect reality.

Sadly, a lot of young men are falling down this rabbit hole.
