Why are women attracted to the V-shape of a mans back?

Hurricane Kid I heard that women like man with developed chest muscle. So you should switch emphasis from rowing to benching. Aahaha.
Those guys are so funny. When I go to bars I see them around. Most do not sit then stand so people can see them. And shirts 2 numbers smaller.

A guy built like that just looks..."capable" Women don't just look at physical actuality. They look at physical potential (as in, "those big strong arms look capable of holding a woman all night!")

ROFL. You crack me up with some of these threads... my two cents.

At it's most basic, women like to feel 'protected' and from an anthropological and physiological aspect, women desire to 'dovetail' well when in the throes of lovemaking. Hence, a man with certain chest - waist ratios will in general (barring strange skeletal frame exceptions) have a slight V shape. This is a natural counterweight to women's physiological predominant frame of most often having larger hip to waist ratios as part and parcel of being optimized to procreate and give birth to healthy children.

So, in general, a V shape is something that can often visually stimulate a woman with thoughts of 'climbing/ mounting' when in her equivalent 'heat' cycles (ovulation - as well as just being aesthetically pleasing - think Statue of David). Combine that with the protection element (being encapsulated in stronger arms than hers) is a general 'base level turn on' to the majority of women - I surmise.

Then there's all those non physical variables that come into play, but since you only asked about the physical I'll end it there.

Actually it does many men are attracted to flat stomach's. big boobs eccentuate a small waistline.

It's quite obvious compare someone shaped like a rectangle to someone with big boobs and a tiny waist line. The one with big boobs will obviously win out.
