Men love all shapes and sizes
By Elsa K. Simcik

Ladies, it's time to stop cursing your jiggly butt. And while you're at it, no more whining about your thighs or your colossal calves. And those hips you think would fit better on a birthing cow? Learn to love 'em. Because the truth is, what you consider a flaw may be some guy's favorite feature. Really. There are guys out there who prefer a flat chest to a couple of D-cups. A pot belly to a set of toned abs. A shapely derriere to a tiny tush.

Next time you're looking at a magazine ad and then make the mistake of examining your reflection in the mirror, remember this: You've got your mind fixated on this ideal look. But in reality, the body type you see in ads is possessed naturally by less than 5% of females according to a study done by the Social Issues Research Center. Wow, that's a tough goal. Let's get realistic. You're not in that 5%. But the good news is, none of your friends, coworkers or family members probably are either. So why measure yourself against Claudia Schiffer when your real standard should be your friend Cassie with the wide hips or Aunt Sally with the love handles?

Still not convinced? Check out these body types and the men that worship them:

1. Juice in the caboose
Let's all give a round of applause to J. Lo for bringing back the butt. Sure, girls have had large rears since the invention of chocolate, but they always hid them in shame. They even experimented with clever fashion tricks to cover them up — ever tried the discreet jacket around the waist? Not necessary anymore. Jenny from the block changed everything when she not only let her butt make an appearance — she let it steal the show. Wilmer, 24, has got it bad for the bigger behind, "I don't care if a girl's gotta flat chest or a big chest, if she doesn't have a booty, I'm not interested." The guys that go for junk in the trunk are typically good dancers. So just like our booty pioneer, J. Lo, you can shake and jiggle all you want on the dance floor and they'll come crawling. Just get used to making introductions from behind.

2. Stacked like a library
Okay, it's pretty hard to go wrong when you're well-endowed on top. Many have speculated on men's fascination with breasts and few have come up with a logical explanation. Jason, 26, takes a stab at this classic dilemma, "Men love cool, multi-purpose gadgets, and breasts may be the best gadget of all ... they provide nourishment for the young, a place to rest a head for the pillow-less, and a hand-hold for the ... people who are neither young, nor sleepy." So what type of guy is most drawn to these wiggly wonders? All guys. And that's the plight of the D-cup: You never know if he likes you or the twins. The A-cups think that's a fair trade.

3. Petite power
The tiny girls who still get carded for rated R movies really have the pick of the litter. With no height constrictions, they can date guys from 5'5 to 6'5. I'm talking about girls who long to hear their men describe them as "gorgeous" and "sexy" but have to settle for "adorable" and "cute." Who are the guys flattering these miniature maidens? Fellas with a thing for much younger girls. They love it that their women are pint-sized and that their feet don't touch the ground when they sit in chairs. Sure, it's okay if your man wants to keep you young at heart. But if he asks you to put on a Catholic school girl uniform, run away.

4. Skeletal supermodels
The tall, thin and gorgeous girls often complain that they can't get a date. Maybe guys are intimidated. And why shouldn't they be? The supermodel is the highest level on the dating barometer. Think about it. People always measure against the supermodel: "He can get any girl he wants — even a supermodel," or "Well, she's pretty, but it's not like she's a supermodel," are just a couple of common rumblings. Or maybe supermodels go dateless because men don't know what to suggest for a date. I mean, these girls obviously don't go out to eat. But don't worry; the supermodels of the world will never be lonely. They have an ample supply of rock stars and rich men who love to show them off.

5. Va-va-va-voluptuous
Do you have it all? Big boobs, big hips and a big butt to boot? No need to hide those curves under a muumuu — flaunt your hourglass figure. "I like a girl with some substance," says Luke, 31, "I don't like to worry that I'm breaking a girl when I hug her." Don't worry, Luke. Voluptuous girls are unbreakable — they're natural women. We salute the Lukes of the world for keeping it real. Seriously. Women's bodies have to go through excruciating events like child birth and post-breakup pizza binges. Which, by the way, are both caused by men.

6. Buff and tough
Athletic girls may have tight butts and a six pack but like our friends, the supermodels, they can sometimes intimidate guys. How can a guy date a girl who could potentially kick his butt? Or worse, beat him in a fierce game of thumb war? "I dated this girl who did triathlons," confesses Mark, 26, "I'd try to train with her but I couldn't even keep up. I always felt pathetic around her." And that's why the best guy for a jockette is a jock. That way the two of you can run, play and compete to your heart's content. And the rest of us can just feel lazy.

If you're still thinking, "There's no way someone could ever love my poochy tummy," then that's because you don't love it. If you carry yourself as if you're the sexiest women in the room, men will notice. So love your big booty. Love your flat chest. Love your thunder thighs. Then he'll love them. And while you're doing all this lovin', learn to love his pot belly too.
