1.) In what countries are the most pussingnest-getting dudes not the traditional image of the alpha male? This relates to my recent Japan posts. It seems that the gayer the clothes, the more likely the dudes are to have nice looking broads with them. The few muscle-bound and fit dudes out here are not getting girls at the same rate as these "beauty" men it seems. Are these "beauty men still going to lose out to a Yakuza-esque-dressed clean cut guy with game?
I've only spent 2 years in Japan so some of the RVF members with more time may have a better answer, but here's my thoughts.
I can count the number of buff dudes I've seen in Japan on one hand. Just because muscular men rarely exist in Japan doesn't necessarily mean that Japanese girls aren't attracted to them, there hasn't been an adequate sample size to even test the theory. It's kind of like saying because most guys with cute girls have black hair in Japan must mean blonde hair is not desired. Also from observing all of the western guys I've winged with in Japan, the muscular guys still generally pulled more girls than the skinny guys. I think this is kind of universal, the goalposts just shift a bit from country to country. Japan is more lenient on skinny guys and more strict on the huge roided guys, but regardless a little muscle will always trump having no muscle.
Dreambig makes a good point that Japanese girls on average want a toned body, not a huge bulked body. Skip to 6:30 and you'll see what I'm talking about (enable captions).
Here's the TL;DW:
Interviewer: Do you find muscular men unattractive? For example, in Japanese and Korean dramas, the main hero is a little...weak-looking? Do you not like the macho image?
Girls: No, that's not it.
Girls: Who likes macho people?
[one hand raised]
Girl1: Not so much macho, but strong?
Girl2: Yeah, toned looking.
