That depends on what exactly are you talking about. Everything else equal, having a good build is better than not having a good build.

In my personal experience weighing 135 lbs and 175 lbs, it's the difference between having average women making smart @ss remarks to you without knowing anything about you, to getting hit on by average women, respectively.

None at all, most of the slayers I know are skinny, I've been scrawny my whole life, I'm like 140 now at 28, I never seemed to have problems, women have different types and preferences I don't know why guys can't understand that.

Not nearly as much as being fat does.

In my brothers case, it helps a lot in getting 7.5-8 range women

Depends what you mean by skinny.

Skinny - small - yes no chick really wants to be with a beanpole

Skinny - muscular - not really but some women will want beefcakes

Women do like muscles the same as we like t1ts

Skinny is fine if you’ve got height or at least a really good face/hair.

Skinny is a turnoff for a short, average face, so so hair guy.

You do not have to look like a bodybuilder but you should have some muscle mass on you. Women defer to physical strength both directly (they are less likely to be confrontational) and indirectly (they observe how / if other men respect you).

I get more attention in the summer at the pool with my shirt off since you can see my abs and i have a good chest. In clothes i look fairly skinny. My co-worker was really checking me out today though.. but i've noticed that since i first met her.

Funny story, long ago I was on a funk and played 'woe is me' online, about girls, this and that. I just used to go to and from job things in a town where the young girls I converged were like me, out of work, but crass, volatile and scoped guys. So it pent up my frustration.
Online someone (female presumably) put to me '...it's probably because you're skinny [why I seemed unpopular]. I don't like pretty skinny guys'.

She must have been off her trolley. So by her logic, if she didn't dig skinny pretty guys, then no woman did, for that matter, my DAD nor most men would do it for her . Either she wasn't particularly typing literate or she was playing into insecurities

yes comes down a few variables. also your energy/vibe etc.

Yes, all things being equal 'stronger' looking physique unlikely to be negative mark against you - roided up bodybuilder may put some off.

Presence/confidence is key too. If you look strong, impressive, but anxious/awkward when you talk to women they'll likely lose interest, unless you're really good looking as well.

Some of the guys I know who did best with women were clearly on thin side (not ill looking thin though, but didn;t really excercise at all so not lean thin either) and they were solid as a rock personality, confidence, way they held themselves etc. Around 6 foot tall so not short as such.

So being strong looking not essential (as demonstrated by a fair % of public who look thin) but definitely won;t do you any harm getting into lifting, diet. You should be doing some exercise, eating well for your own well being, health anyway, so why not do something that also can help with being more attractive too?

A lot of properly lean, natural weight lifters do too. Good to wear slim fitting (not skin tight) t shirts, otherwise can look 'skinny' and like you've never lifted a weight in your life to most people if wearing normal/loose fitting clothes, particularly office type long sleep shirts. A lot of it is an illusion. Many competing natural body builders weigh 10-11 stone on stage, but in pics, on stage look much bigger due to being 6% or lower and definition/muscles popping out.

It's like anything. It depends on how you dress. fit muscular > fit > skinny muscular > skinny > fat muscular > fat.

The most important thing is that you dress to your body type and matches your style, and you are comfortable in your clothes. If you are skinny, don't wear loose clothing: if you are fat, don't wear tight clothes.

Some chicks like skinny guys: some chicks like big dudes.... just find women that like you for what you are. However, it is ALWAYS easier to find women if you are fit and in good shape because most women will like this. The key is to be healthy. If you are skinny and look like a meth head... that's bad. But if you are a skinny marathon runner... that's okay.

Being and looking healthy is the most important thing you can do.
