Is having a good body must?
Hey Chase, loved your article as always!
Well, I'm a guy who is very skinny. I have a relatively cute face (friends say) though. My question is - is it very hard for me to score a girl with attractive looks since I'm too skinny? Or I can still get attractive ones if I do the other things right? Would love to hear your opinion on the matter.
And also, I'm trying to get a good body these days, and good grooming and dressing sense. Meanwhile, since getting a body is a matter of years, should I keep practicing with girls and other things such as grooming and dressing sense? Or should I hold them till I get a great body?
Having a Good Body
Anon-
Yes, you can absolutely still get attractive girls while thin. The only body shape that's a deal breaker for most girls most of the time is being very obese - and even then, there are occasionally ways around that. Most women prefer a thin man to an overweight one, in general.
As for waiting until you get a better body - absolutely not! The experience you accumulate with women in the months or years while you're working on your body is incredibly valuable, and if you skip it, you'll be starting out much behind where you could be. Not to mention the fact that knowing what you're doing with girls plays a big role in your ultimate success than a great body. Both are good, but if you can only pick one, you've got to go with learning the skill set. If you have a sexy body but don't know how to talk to women, it doesn't do you a whole lot of good other than serve as an attention getter.
When I started approaching, I was overweight (and didn't realize it... kind of amazing, in retrospect) - I had a big gut and a lot of fat on my face. Yet, I still managed to sleep with hot girls, fashion models, girls with pretty faces and rail-thin bodies (although I prefer more of an hourglass figure myself), even while rocking my gut. My results did improve and become more consistent after I lost most of that excess weight, but I wouldn't trade the experiences I racked up in the meantime for the world.
