Ok. I’ve got a question for everyone. At what point does female bodybuilding reach the peak of the “sexy” plateau and begin going back downhill from there?
Don’t get me wrong, I’m a fan of healthy female bodies (like the “fitness trend” towards pole dancing), but at some point it seems to me these ladies (generously assuming they are all ladies) cross a threshold and simply no longer look good.
I guess the real question is, at what point are these women no longer “hot”?
Say hello to Aki Nishimoto – 3 time Miss Japan. She is incredibly toned and lean, and also has a deep fake tan. How’s this looking to you guys? Oh, and she’s a former Karate competitors, so she can kick your ass!
Now this next anonymous lady redefines the word ‘lean’. This woman’s abs have giant veins running throughout, and you can see the striation in her muscles. Now, I appreciate all the hard work, but someone please take this woman out for some BBQ and fatten her up!
Here is Fawnia Mondey doing a little workout. She’s very defined, though not completely ripped like the previous two, and not as swollen up as the following ladies. If you ask me, she’s just about perfect. Not too lean, not too hefty.
Not sure who this woman is, but she’s got some guns on her, that’s for sure! In my opinion, like Fawnia, she is just about perfectly developed.
There is no doubt that Christiane Lamy here is in fantastic shape. But as you can see, she’s a little meatier than the previous ladies. Notice also that the fake boobs are beginning to pop up. This is a relatively recent trend, but is it still hot? Especially when they look like oranges caught under a piece of spandex?
Amy Pazzo is big. She’s by no means the biggest, but she’s definitely getting on up there. So, how many of you are still hanging in there thinking this is sexy?
Here is Sophie Duquette. Now, I don’t want to be insulting, but is she really a woman? I mean at some point these ladies get so big that if they don’t have extremely feminine facial features you begin to question whether they are transgendered men. Is this still Hot?
Ok. We’re gonna stop after this next one. I believe this is Dianne Solomons, and I don’t want to make any comments lest she hunt me down and squash me like a grape!
To wrap things up, I think we know where Jim Carrey stands on the subject of female bodybuilding…
Now that you’ve wasted like half an hour of your life, how about spending another 30 seconds to share your opinion on where the line between beauty and beast should be drawn? Drop me a comment and let me know…

You just ruined my day :)
These “women” are the ugliest creatures in the world. C’mon, women are supposed to be tender and pretty not beefed up like Schwarzenegger on estrogen pills. Women are supposed to have breasts made of fat not muscle. I bet most of the “ladies” on the videos (except the last one of course :) ) are taking testosterone pills which is sick in my opinion.
I even think male body builders are ugly as hell. People are not supposed to look like that. I have nothing against a well defined healthy body but these folks are just taking it too far.
Want to see well defined beautiful women bodies? Check out “Eric Prydz – Call on me” video :) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DlP0XAifbm8)
ok, that womans it’s UGLY.
To quote Sir MixALot–my anaconda don’t want none of that…
I think that kind of musculature looks grotesque on men AND women. It’s just unnatural. Gives me the willies!
I agree with that, I do not understand why people would do this to themselves, and most people looking like this is of course on steroids screwing up their bodies jsut to look big.

JP-As your HR Representative, I would have suggested presenting this expose in a gender-neutral format :<) As an individual, I agree with Dawn that people (men, women, or ??) wrapped up in these types of development programs end up looking a bit freakish (IMO). BUT…my mother taught me that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I suppose if they’re happy with the way they look, that matters more than how I think they look.
I must admit, that’s not too attractive. I’d have to agree with other commenters that it’s not really that appealing to see anyone with that kind of extreme physique. It’s just too unnatural! I think that the same could probably be applied to any other type of unnatural-looking change that is taken too far (plastic surgery, too much makeup, etc).
As long as their upper body contains “boobs” and not “pecks”, I’m usually good. Once they start blurring the lines there, it gets tougher to tell.
Frankly speaking John,
I don’t like women like these.Look there are trying to be what they are not.Women don’t look beautiful in this way.Yes i agree too they aren’t attractive ladies.
I never thought men looked good all bulging out and pumped up, so I don’t see anything attractive about the women either. So what happens when they stop working out? Does it all fall down in a big sag?
No, if they haven’t taken any drugs. There body start getting soft and the muscles are now cover in fat, they start looking like the typically female body.
Ha! There’s a federation/social group for everyone, apparently!

I am sure ther are guys (or girls) in the world who like that. for me its way over the top, gives the word nutcracker a different meaning
John, just delete this post if the phrase above is not political correct.
cheers

Since there is nothing objective about attraction to the opposite sex, their will be lots of opinions. It seems that these ripped women somehow have had a serious disconnect with femininity. That said, many women have higher levels of testosterone, which might account for male like behaiviour. For me a swimmers body on men or women is the ideal musculature, I think men or women who persue body building to the extreme look grotesque. Neither are “attractive”. But since it is a sport or competition, they like it, train hard to get the bulk, I’m sure our opinion means little to them…
No men do, the testosterone is one of the main reasons why men muscles always stay pump up and manly looking, is because of testosterone. Women produce much less testosterone than man. hence the reason can’t stay bulking unless they take drugs.
I am not really in to the big buffy women there for sure… I prefer them a little more petite and feminine.
I am still recovering from a 5 day vacation down south with Rhoody, hardcore party all the way… Oh and some fantastic dives :)
Kim:)
This is a tough one. There is a big difference between athletic and being a body builder. If the woman was attractive with the face and the mind, I would probably not care what her body was like to an extent. Still, I like a little cushion. Body builders tend to have almost no body fat.
At what point does it feel like you are lying down with a hairless man? If I was gay and interested in crossing over, this might be a great opportunity :D.
it’s a joke?
it can’t be HOT!
BUT they made their choice themselves…
God, save our souls!
mostly hot, and better than anorexia
I am a bodybuilder female and I find your blog thing disgusting and offensive! I can’t believe there are forums judging people as if they where some sort of freaks. When I started weights, I never thought I would get treated like this. When I find you I’m going to crush your testes with my bare hands! We female bodybuilders are humans too! …. I think.
Only joking. The above is not real. To be honest I find female bodybuilders especially real big ones, very attractive. The bigger the better. I wish all guys thought like you, so that way you can leave them all for me. I do prefer though, these big women in the off season when they are not flexing. I do not find them particularly attractive when they are flexing. But I also find all the other types of fit girls attractive too. I know I sick in the head. I just wish they liked me. Usually they prefer male bodybuilders.
You must have been watching the video with Jim Carey.
Fitness and being in shape is cool. A toned, athletic build on a woman is very sexy but when they go overboard bulk up, face starts looking man-ish, and with so much muscle in their chest they need fake boobs, it’s too much…but IF that’s what makes them happy then I can see some attractiveness to a degree… Very little degree, but I like the athletic toned in shape look on a woman, not too hard and not too soft with the curves and feminine figure still there.
I think these woman are totally hot . Actually, I know few people who also think the same as I do. woman with muscles really turn me on, especially if they got a beautiful face. I never met one in person , but I really wish to meet one and I hope to have a girlfriend that is into bodybuilding… that would be real something. I was always wowed at the sight of muscular ladies in magazines since I was 9 years old and till now they never stopped making me excited.. you might think am weird, but to me it is an out-of-this-world experience to see a woman who has far more muscles than you would dream to have, an who, eventually, is stonger than you or than most regular men. HAIL ALL MUSCLED WOMEN…
Didi, Bodybuilders aren’t that strong. That muscle is just for show. Having strong healthy body is more than just lifting weights having muscles, you can have a muscular body and be unhealthy.
My father once told me a story. This guy with muscles all over his body, was picking on this guy who happen to be marital artists. Guess who one. It wasn’t the guy with all the flashy muscles it was the marital artists.
Athletics are in much better shape than most bodybuilders.
I think they all look beautiful. I find muscle sexy on women.
i am an italian female bodybuilder figure competitor
i think guys get threatened by women or men with muscles,but secretely would like to be one,i mean come on who wouldn`t like to be able to leg press 800kg or bench press 350kg?we can.
it`s always the slim guys that have got something to say,its just insecurity so you have to be horrible.people think roids are magic,if you don`t eat at least 6times a day,high intensity training enough rest you can spend thousand on them,it would be a waste so you all taking out of ignorance and a little jelousy.
Monica Brant and Jenny Lynn are my role models,they`re curvaceous, and their body is rock hard just like mine.
who says women should be soft?i like every inch of my body to be in shape and feel like granite
bodybuilding is the hardest sport,it`s 24/7 and you need extensive knowledge to transform and improve your body
btw i would like to see how you look,instead of criticizing people`s lifestyles
I think female bodybuilders are very sexy, buff or more cut. And no I’m not gay I just love raw power
Not my thing….. if you are looking female perfection my option is that she has tone muscles and slim but not ripped as a body builder. Female body builders looks masculine and not feminine.
My Option
Scott
I think she is very beautiful…
Gotta go with “NO” on this.
