It's probably my age, but I think this man's abdomen looks most odd - as though he is a crocodile or something? I'd find a nice, ordinary belly, or even a bit of a paunch, much nicer. Forgive the DM link, I followed an MN link about something else, then got distracted...

Agree with you.

FringeEvent · 06/10/2012 16:14

Ewww. I completely agree with you.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 06/10/2012 16:14

Agreed, looks freaky.

His look fake. Like implants.

But I like them sometimes. Just not that one

I think some definition is nice but he looks like a Roman statue made out of marble :/
Bit too much for me. My first boy friend was very muscular and it made me feel a bit ill, we didn't last very long lol

p.s Steve Backshall is just right

Can't see your link but YABU I love a six pack :)

TessCowDirect · 06/10/2012 16:37

He looks like he has swallowed a turtle.

geegee888 · 06/10/2012 18:57

I don't mind the six pack, but you need quite low body fat and a lot of specific work on that area alone to produce one like that, which is a bit wierd in a non-competitive athlete.

I find the contestants this year a bit weird looking and unattractive - what a shallow thing to say, but that advert where they are coated in badly applied stage make up scares me.

Ive never been into 6 packs. I like big men, not over weight, but a maby stomach with big arm muscles and broad shoulders.

I like a 6-pack of IPA. But not what he's got.

nameuschangeus · 06/10/2012 19:07

He looks like he's wearing one of those fake plastic Batman style bodies Grin

BigFatLegsInWoolyTIghts · 06/10/2012 19:09

Mutant turtle boy.

He looks like Norman Wisdom with a six pack

Latara · 06/10/2012 19:14

Well it depends if it's Stella or Bud really.

confusedpixie · 06/10/2012 19:16

YABU, I love it Grin I love a bit of muscle, especially on the arms. I love women with smaller six-packs too. I would prefer toned bellies in my own partner though, as keeping a six-pack takes time and effort, and I'd rather they spent the time with me Wink

AmberLeaf · 06/10/2012 19:19

I hate 6 packs.

I dont like hard bodies.

TheCrackFox · 06/10/2012 19:30

His looks like he has has make-up applied to add definition to his 6 pack.

TBH I'm not a huge fan of 6 packs or the waxed chest/stomach look. I prefer someone who likes a curry and a beer (like I do).

OutragedAtThePriceOfFreddos · 06/10/2012 19:40

YANBU. I thought it was just me that doesn't like it. I also can't be attracted to men who wax their chests. It just doesn't look manly to me.

Pippa6774 · 06/10/2012 19:58

Oh dear! my little girls do gymnastics and have got 6 packs like that!
