Okay, so I know that military life and being the wife or partner of someone in the armed forces is nothing like the fantasy. Nonetheless, I find the idea of hot military guys a huge turn-on. AIBU?

I'd imagine they'd have PTSD from all the murder they had to commit and witness. And that they would struggle to function in day to day society without being told what to do constantly. They're not taught to think for themselves. So no, I don't find the military hot. It's horrible.

Though I find that photo you have up of that overpumped guy really unattractive personally. And I am very attracted to physically fit men.

Well YANBU to be attracted to whatever you like, obviously. Not my cup of tea AT ALL though.

Firstly, I'm not a fan of the shiny, rubbery unnaturally muscled look (ugh). Secondly, every single military man I've met has definite issues. I wouldn't touch one with a bargepole.

Of course not. Being attracted to fit, brave, action orientated men is completely normal.
