Have you thought about why we love muscular women?

May 26, 2025 - edited May 26, 2025 - permalink

Is it the way our brains are wired? or something else?

For me it's the definition of their muscles, it shows they have a lot of discipline and hard work. I find that very attractive in a woman.

I think it’s because we value strength. Are we so strange?

The idea of a huge muscle woman solving all my problems sounds kind of nice

We are not strange. Strength is a great quality and worthy of admiration.

It sounds nice indeed.

I literally have no idea why it happened to me. Came across images of muscular women for the first time by accident on Google in 5th grade, and, boom, instantly hooked.

My inner me always looks for strong, healthy, athletic genes for offspring.

Buff girls look and often are just that.

Tall, broad-shouldered, narrow waisted with hips and an a$$. Not fat. Not skinny fat. An athletic warrior woman who rips sh-it alongside you. :-)

We all want the same, but modern society spurns men for being attracted to anything that is not some bone-thin super model who couldn't lift 5kgs or bear any of us baby warriors. Or some obese piglet who claims 'fat is healthy'. Yeah, no thanks.

My $0.02c.

PS. Sounds like an angry post, but definitely not.

For me it was seeing a contest on tv back in the mid 90s. I was 7.

please not another of these "why why why???" posts.

Just accept it. It's how we're wired, just like alcoholism but perhaps less destructive.

Hopefully less destructive. As addictive as crack, as fulfilling as smack, but hopefully less damaging than booze. 🤣💪😎.

It seems like I have always had a sexual attraction to powerful women. but at first it wasn't just muscle but magical power too but That doesn't exist in real life. it just seems better better for sex better for handy things like work and self-defense.

however there is also a less rational element were I want to be dominated and overpowered by women. it's really hot to see and feel the destructive power of strong women. I get aroused by minor pain inflicted by women on me like getting slapped or squeezed and just the feeling of being weak and powerless. I like the idea of worshipping and submitting to a powerful woman that is better than me at almost everything. I was always like this growing up I was surprised when I found out this was not normal.

I think we all probably started out with just fit girls. Probably those with nice curves and toned bodies, which seems perfectly normal to me. The continual draw to bigger and bigger women developed over time for me and was facilitated mostly by the internet. I bet without it I (and probably most others) never would've developed the kink to this extent. Despite that, theres probably something to be said for its just the way we are wired. I still remember the first time I was shown a fbb as a kid. A bunch of my classmates were saying how weird it was, but I was just immediately enamoured. I can't think of any reason why a strong or muscular (non steroid using) woman should be considered unattractive other than social stigma.

yeah, that's pretty much how it happened to me. I agree with the wiring hypothesis for myself

I don't know when it happened to me, but it's A LIFE (I'm almost 48 yo) I love very fit / muscular women. Beyond aesthetics, which I simply find fantastic (I'm mainly crazy about big arms, shoulders and abs), for some time now I'm very attracted by the strength this girls have, compared to my personal lifts. Unfortunately I never had such a female in my life, I'm married with a pretty petite but in good shape woman, but definitely I can't say she's muscular nor fit as most of the girls here.

Because they are a theoretical model of what women OUGHT to be already. Unafraid to speak their minds, unafraid to ask/express interest, good and loud, for what they want.

Unlike the vast majority of their terrified sistren who start out having to resort to deception/subterfuge and general deceitfulness to get closer to what they want, and end up so inured to that deceptiveness, they take it to the nth degree.

Theoretical, because the current crop of GWM aren't there, yet. They've been raised largely by unathletic mothers/parents, and one of the extremely few good outcomes of an education system overrun with feminists, is they ushered the girls into the weight rooms. But this generation thus stumbled onto a keenness for hypertrophy. They haven't been raised as Amazons, thus didn't sneak in at 15 wearing school uniform into public gyms that otherwise only allow adults, but I have a lot more hope for the crop who'll be born a few years into the future, to the current young ladies of iron

Stepping stones?

American Gladiators (Ice, Zap, Siren and Diamond).

Cory Everson in Double Impact.

Zap (Raye Hollit) in Skin Deep.

Bodyshaping (tv fitness show).

Cory Everson on Lois and Clark: Adventures of Superman.

Training at Les Mills in the 90's and 2000's. Lots of gym girls.

Dated a bunch of circuit aerobics instructors, and general gym girls in the 90's and 2000's. Not as buff as today, but still beautiful women.

Saw the rise of crossfit, and the arrival of the functional muscle physique for girls. Ahhh...not my type...too straight up and down with thick waists. Still gorgeous, just not my sort of gorgeous.

Heidi Vuorela was probably my first real GWM from this site.

Bakhar Nabieva was the next big stepping stone. Liked the tattoos and the crazy eyes.

Now, way happier with my attraction to GWM. No issues talking about it or showing in my daily life.

Bounce between statuesque blondes and stunning Latinas in tastes. My favourites show what I like. Broad shoulders, biceps, narrow waist, ass, hips, thighs and pretty.

Thanks for the platform to share GWM. :-)

My best guess is that I crave strength as security, I hope one day neuroscience or something else can give me the real answer to better understand myself.

I like the idea of being matched. When i was young i was disturbed by muscular females. Then i was intrigued. Then i was excited.

Aside from the obvious sexual ideation there is a curiosity about how i would fare competitively. A weak woman can be cute but won't challenge you. A peak woman on PEDs will challenge you, but if she is way stronger, there is no challenge for her. A natty woman that is closely matched to you will have a mutual challenge with you. And the shared inspiration will make your bond stronger.

If i was a small guy, I wouldn't need much to challenge me. As it is, a woman like Katie Sonier would be close to my height, weight and strength. Though her flexibility and skills would put me to shame. ;)

Yes, generally, our wiring for the opposite sex is different. I’ve said this in other forums, I think everyone starts out with basically similar wiring. From a very young age, people are instinctively programmed to find muscular, fit and capable women and men more attractive. This is evolutionary, stemming from leadership potential and survival advantages when early humans lived in smaller groups or clans. In current times, environmental and social pressures influence the developing minds of children to distract them from pursuing fitness. Otherwise we would see many more fit people IRL. Our childhood development somehow preserved this evolutionary programming.

My addiction started back in the early 80's with female muscle on TV but I remember being attracted to girls with nice arms in grade school and High School. What I find weird is that lately I am taking my wife's face and swapping it with hypermuscular women on Deviantart and having fantasies about the images (wink wink). I just can't stop. Addiction sucks until you get caught then it's a death sentence. Not my wife here but you get the picture....credit to JonyBombi on Deviantart

I hated as a child that every girl i know is like: "no i dont want do play this or run around" and in school sports there are like: "i sit here and do nothing" etc. Also my mom and my sisters

Later in school like 5th to 10th great i had a girl in my class that could do back flips and some pull ups. That was refreshing and i liked that energy from her!

That is what i believe the beginning

I don't think kinks come from a place of rationality; we may like to think up rationalizations after-the-fact. I think possibly the kink arises from a pre-sexual interest or curiosity adjacent to our wired-in sexuality that eventually gets coopted by our sexuality when it emerges full force. Some kinks are too a posteriori to be an intrinsic part of our brain wiring. Just speculation, I'm not remotely an expert.
