Men who lifted weights to become attractive to women, what differences in interest have you noticed, since you started?

In my experience, this isn't true at all - in fact the ratio would be the opposite. I know a ton of attractive women (hell, I've been married to one for 20 years), and despite the fact that any one of them could basically have their pick of any man they want, they all have chosen that 150 lb "kid" over the 180 lb "man". The only exception is my sister, who is married to a bit of a beast who is always at the gym. But he's just a massive, sensitive teddy bear. Every other guy I know who obsesses over their body, working out to get that 180 lb "man" body is forever single, constantly posting photos of their semi naked torsos to social media, waiting for their "due". Sure, women can appreciate a ripped body, but it is far from the defining feature that attracts them to a guy. Way more important is an attractive face, personality, and style.
