Cuddling on the
Wild Side

If you’re an expert in profile surfing like I am, you’ve probably ran across the letters HWP. They stand for “height-weight proportionate”. Now don’t ask me what the fuck that actually means because if you take height and weight, it all comes out to a proportion. It’s funny too because the guys that are looking for HWP and describe themselves as HWP, are just “average” looking guys. I’m going to assume they actually mean that HWP is actually the Golden Ratio.

The Golden Ratio is the number 1.6180339887… or symbolized by Φ, but when applied effectively it’s supposed to be aesthetically pleasing. There are ways to bend the golden ratio to make most things fit it, just as people can find Jesus in potato chips. So maybe they mean you take height multiplied by the Golden Ratio, and you get their weight?

 

Let’s try it for a 6 ft (72 inches) man:

 

72 inches * 1.618 = 116.498 lbs.

I’m sorry, but if you’re 6ft tall and you weigh 116.5 lbs. You better fucking eat burgers with fries and wash it down with a glass of oil. I’m hoping they have a different way of calculating it.

My Golden Ratio for men comes out to actually be at least 2.75 (roughly). And this is not an exact science, nor does it mean that if you fall into this ratio, I will find you attractive. For me the Golden Ratio is actually a minimum.

 

So, for another 6 ft man:

 

72 inches * 2.75 = 198 lbs

That is much closer to my type of man, but that’s more of the minimum for me. It helps a lot when I’m looking at profiles. A guy may look decent in his pics, only because he’s only showing like 10% of his body, but that doesn’t mean he’s my type. I’ll look at his stats and he’ll be 6’2 and weigh 165 lbs. Once I see that, I move on to the next guy.

I’ve found this ratio is pretty accurate for me when I don’t have many pictures especially. There are exceptions, but when I’m super horny and not thinking clearly… it can help me from doing someone I’ll quickly regret.

We all have a physical type that would be our Prince Charming. I’ve heard people say they don’t, but I think they are just lying to themselves. There’s a physical type that you like above the rest. I’m not saying you might not like other types, but there is a type that you likely consider ideal.

Recently I did a poll, as suggested by one of you guys, to find out if you are your own ideal type. Now, when I wrote the poll, it uses a lot of stereotypes, generalities and focuses entirely on looks. We’re all a little shallow… it’s alright to admit it.

My ideal type is a big thick muscle-head/bodybuilder/powerlifter, dark hair, some body and facial hair, buzzed head, about 5’10 – 6′ tall, around 280 lbs, couple of tattoos and a nice filled out face (not bony). Does that mean if you’re not him,  I’d turn you away… hell no. But if I could build my perfect man, he’d have those features.

As you can see, I’m not that, but you can bet that I’m trying my best to get there. Well, except for the height, I like my guys a little bit shorter than me. It makes for better cuddling.

The split on the poll was actually pretty close to what I would have guessed with most people trying to become their ideal type, but not there yet – that includes me.

There are also those that have no interest in becoming their ideal type. For example you have chub and twink chasers, where maybe one guy is my ideal type, but his ideal type is a smooth, twink that weighs 120 lbs. I’m not sure if I’ll ever truly understand this, but if it makes them happy… go for it.

Granted, we do all have an ideal type, but don’t spend your whole life searching for that guy. You’ll likely never find him. Just find guys that make you happy and make your life feel more enjoyable. They should be there to enhance your life, not fill a need of yours. If you’re not happy with yourself first, you’ll never truly be happy with a guy. Spend some time and think about who you are and what you really need/want out of life, go get then, then start to think about finding a man. Until then, you really need to learn how to be single and enjoy it. I know it does suck some times, I’m there with you, but look for the good times.
