There is nothing to feel guilty about. It just makes it more complicated finding elements of this in a real woman. I’d love if I could have gf who worked out, amongst other shared interests, but it does reduce the size of the pool of opportunities.
I am generally comfortable telling people I like fit and muscular women, partly because I workout myself.
Honestly I do, I know if any of anyone in my life knew that I’m into super huge muscular women I’d most likely be labeled as a weirdo in their eyes. I mean being attracted to women looking like this is pretty far from the norm
I don't understand how any concept of "norm" is salient to a bizarre life full of irrational people that invest a lot of time attempting to convince others that they are rational. We are driven by emotion...
The phrase "labelled as a wierdo" is basically stereotyping someone as a meaningless concept. Why does it matter what other people think? How do you know what they think (unless they tell you)?
I can understand ekkijo's concerns to some degree, although in this day and age, it is far more acceptable than many years ago.
My mother found my secret stash of far less muscular women, than we see here. It was my fondest treasure. I was in my mid teens. Clippings from magazines, circus women, and a magazine of the old WPC "Women's Physical Culture Club". I had to wait weeks for that incredible magazine, sent from the Netherlands and it was expensive for that time. This was late 1960s.
My own mother called me a weirdo, thought there was something seriously wrong with me. It made me question my own feelings. Why am I like this? Seeing a high school girl, with buffed arms, brushing her hair, drove me crazy. I never approached any of the 5 or 6 buffed girls in high school for two reasons. They were out of my league, simply because they had muscular arms. Secondly, I was afraid to ever comment on their muscles because I feared, they would call me a weirdo!
In a strange twist to this, my sister one year younger than me, had muscular arms, with developed biceps. She was the only one I ever confided in about girls with muscles. My mother actually acted like she was ashamed of my sister because she thought muscles on girls was ugly. Times have changed for the better. That's for damn sure!!! Now I not only let my feelings be known in relationships, I only pursue buffed women.
I actually like it about myself. Muscular women still have to deal with lots of shitty comments about their bodies and I happily disagree with those A-holes. It's a bit inconvenient when it comes to relationships. Haven't dated a buff woman yet, so craving for something my GF can't give me sucks. I'm really thankful my ex gave me permission to go have a muscle worship session with somebody else. Right now I'm single, but I don't see myself attracting a buff lady, as I'm a fat dude.
The only time I feel guilty about being into muscular women is when I can't take my eyes off one in public, especially in the gym.
Swimsuit, lingerie models, porn stars, they're a dime a dozen. Buff women just have that "thing" that sets them apart....to me, the sex appeal is just off the charts compared to women without muscle, maybe because they exude a badass confidence. I feel the opposite of guilty because I believe these women want to be noticed for the hard work they put in. I certainly appreciate it. And when some of these women get hate for going the OF/nudity route, that's bullshit.

@Kingkuster...I agree with you and lpc. A muscular woman is so much hotter than a typical beauty queen. From my limited experience, a buffed woman definitely enjoys being appreciated. They worked hard for their development. Maybe it's too strong a word but I've worshipped, treasured, the few I've been with.

Same here. My mom “found” my stash of fbb mags under my bed: Rather than feel humiliated, I should have been outraged. WTF was she doing snooping around in my room?
Feelings of guilt can intensify pleasure (if you’re wondering how this can be true, do a search on the literature, we don’t need to get into it here). Let’s consider: for some around here, maybe feeling guilty is a part of enjoying a fetish?
Good point! 👍 Catholic's have been doing this for centuries! 🤣
There's something about tyranny in feelings of guilt (unless we actually did something harmful). Guilt often comes from an expectation of being judged negatively by others (a facet of tyranny). It doesn't matter if the others are right or wrong, being judged is unpleasant. Guilt is a manner of built-in boundary system humans have. It works to reduce unpleasant social experiences (less social conflict aids survival). Guilt is not universal, however. Some have almost none (and no moral compass) while in others, it's overdeveloped and needs to be relaxed (that was an issue for me in the past).
For this interest... or any interest... If indulging is harmful in a tangible way (not just as a distraction or hobby), guilt is probably good. It can interrupt spiraling into obsession/addiction. Otherwise, it's probably not useful to feel guilt about any interest (unless you fear that it can become an addiction and unhealthy... some have to consider this with any interest they follow more than casually).
I'm actually proud to be into a girl's strength and hard work. However, since it is considered to be a "fetish", I keep it a secret until I'm close with someone.
I think that’s gonna be my philosophy with this whole attraction too. Maybe I’ll open up more regardless of whether I actually do get a gf that lifts but obviously I’m not gonna talk about muscular women 24/7 lol
I dont feel guilty but i wish i didnt have it, my life would be much easier

I don't feel guilty and I don't give fuck what someone else think. I am happy!

Its just that i waste a lot of time either giving myself pleasure by looking for that fetish or actually holding myself to do something productive instead
I have been attracted to muscular women since my high school days, when I watched WWE and some of the divas had a very muscular physique (Terri Runnels, Torrie Wilson or Tori drove me crazy for the same reason).
But that desire was "sleeping" for a while, until one day searching on the Internet, I found a woman who seemed very sexy to me and I realized that it was because she had nice abs and big biceps (larger than average, really). From there, it was all about looking for girls of that type.
I've only felt guilty about this once. When an ex-girlfriend commented about muscular women that she thought they were "man-like" and that she would "doubt the manhood of a man who fantasized about them." She was very far from having a fit body and at the same time I ended up with her.
Currently, my girlfriend is not a fit girl either, but she tolerates and does not consider my attraction to girls who cultivate their body strange, so I live happily.
Good Lord no.
Muscularity is inherently healthy, therefore sexy. In fact the only guilt I feel is a slight one, about the disdain I feel for people who prefer the opposite, when in fact I should pity them instead.
I think it's funny a lot of negativity about muscular women comes from other women. My mom talks about how unattractive it is and blah, blah, blah.
I don't say anything, and while I think it's fine if it's not someone's thing, acting like it's so grotesque and wrong is probably where a lot of guilt is created.
I feel frustration more than anything. I ran across a couple of buff women throughout my life and I felt too weird about myself to make a move.

I can hear you. Had the same kind of imprinting, like muscles on women were gross. I know that feeling but after all we cannot deny our nature and be cool with it.
