  Ditto for women looking for men that have to look like the
  cover of Muscle and Fitness (hahahohoheehee).  My SO has been
  a weightlifter since high school, but recently he had to cut
  back on his training due to medical school (for all you folks
  who want to marry doctors think twice, no better thrice--if he
  doesn't have time to lift weights...will he have time to talk
  to you?).  So even though he still has awesome biceps, those
  lats and abs just don't "rate" with  the likes of Frank Columbo
  or Bob Paris...(I hope no-one is taking me seriously).  The point
  is you have to like the person as a total package instead of
  rating them on a point system (maybe this has to do with too many
  multiple choice tests or teacher evaluation forms on scan-trons).
  
  Yep I totally agree with the preceding message..
