Is it normal to not find guys who work out attractive?

I'm a girl and I'm 18. Ever since I can remember, Iv'e always thought that when guys have a 'six pack' or are muscley, and quite ovbiously work out or go to the gym, are unattractive to me.
I like guys the way they are, to me it really does matter if a guy works out, or does weights or whatever, to achieve 'washboard abs' or a 'six pack' or whatever, IN A NEGATIVE WAY! In my opinion men that do this look fake, and I really don't like it, I can't explain. But I don't find it attractive at all, in fact, it's a turn off! Is this normal?

    Me too. :)
    My bf is slightly less than toned, but is working towards it and we've agreed he'll stop before he gets any bigger.
    I hate obvious muscle (any that jut out, even smoothly): big shoulders, upper arms are my biggest turnoff, can't do it.
    As someone said before, I like it when it looks like they don't workout but instead just have an active lifestyle (carrying groceries and the common summer bike ride are great on their own) and hobby (casual tennis, swim or canoeing).
    I like my guy 'slim', I doubt that will ever change.

    I'm a girl and totally agree w u. I feel the same exact way. I want a nice guy who takes care of himself. Not a gym whore who cares more about what he looks like than me.

    I think its pathetic how so many people spend so much time going to the gym waisting their time for muscle they want to show. I think getting muscle natrually by working or doing your interests would make it worth while but seriously people work out far too much.

    Uh.. Working out and maintaining a healthy body is something everyone should do. Strong bodies are less prone to illness and injury. Not being attracted to muscles is normal, though. Working out is not a waste of time!

      She's explained that it's not the 'working out' aspect. It's when they push it to the point that they form muscles for show (as most guys do).
      A fit and toned body is great and should be worked towards, but anything more than that can be excessive and ugly to some.

    Most humans are biologically coded to find mates with ideal physical attributes. But in the 21st century, we have evolved beyond such trivial nonsense and many search for mates based on intelligence and...fuckability.

    I personally prefer hot girls, as I have high intelligence already and do not require a smart person to fuck.

    I like guys who are so busy and interested in the world around them, they don't possess vanity. So, yeah, I get what you're saying.

    Exactly, I tend to like guys who are in good shape, strong but not "cut" or "ripped," too much muscle is a turn off. I think part of it is the idea that he's so into himself he's not going to give me enough attention, so why bother.
