I've recently come to notice that a lot of men are complaining about how long their legs are, you know, with the whole "They're unattractive!" get-up. I, myself, am pretty indifferent about my "long" legs, but I'm also curious about everybody else's opinions! Do you find long legs on men attractive?
If they look like spiders' legs, probably not. It really depends. Are we talking about any long legs, or disproportionately long legs? Because someone with a long torso needs long legs, and someone with a short torso will look funny with them.
I don't like skinny legs - as in, spindly, drainpipe legs. Tall legs or not doesn't matter to me, as long as the body is in proportion.
I'm talking about slightly longer, like, not RIDICULOUSLY long. Just long enough to be noticeable when said guy is standing next to another guy with slightly shorter legs. Still proportionate? Yes. skinny spindle legs? No. Although I did see a picture on Google a while back(I can't find it!) that refers to business suits and body proportion. It really hit the nail on the head though! (Sorry if I'm making this sound like a non-nonsensical loophole! I really should have thought this through before I let my curiosity get to me :bang: )
I have never played any attention to how proportionally long someone's legs are. Is that even a thing?
I wasn't really aware that this was a thing. And I'm really quite tall. I guess if I had to form a preference I like short guys but I really can't see anyone being like--dark and handsome yes please, tall no way.
Definitely an ElliaOtaku response, right there. I like legs a lot, honestly. It wouldn't ever be a deal breaker if someone didn't have nice legs, but I definitely appreciate legs and calves. My boyfriend has fairly long, hairy legs with nice calves, and I think they're beautiful. I'm with other people though - skinny twig legs don't catch my eye.
Very few things are “deal-breakers” loks-wise for me to be honest, I cannot think about anything on the top of my head that doesn’t really involve lack of hygiene. The whole package is what counts when it comes to looks. But yeah, to be 100% honest legs are one of the things that get my attention at first sight. For me it is not really a matter of length, but I do find visible and well proportioned calve muscles and triceps really sexy. And hairy legs too (I am basically copying what the previous poster said, but it is true!).
Right. Long legs of the thin and pale variety on a tall skinny guy don't catch my attention. Shorter, thicker, and hairier legs that are proportioned on a medium height stockier guy get my attention almost every time. I'm amazed to see how many guys out there are quick to mention legs along with pectorals and biceps. So, a lot of guys do notice legs on other guys.
Oh yeah, it does matter. The longer and (naturally) smoother the better. It definitely isn't a deal breaker though.
I don't think I've ever in my life looked at a guy and said "Wow, his legs are too long." I like tall slim guys anyway, so either its a good thing or I just wouldn't notice.
That's generally one of the areas I'm least focused on with guys... really it's a matter of thickness; short/long and tall/short doesn't matter so much to me as thick/skinny. So I had to pick "other." I mean, slight preference for tall, which implies long, but I don't care so much. Plus physical is like 10% of attraction for me, so this doesn't mean a whole lot in the end.
