Is this just horoscope reading for effays?
>>18650947No, you stupid person
>>18650947They've got a point but the Triangle one just doesn't fit at all. Also Inverted Triangle and Trapezoid are the same
>>18650996No they're not. Inverted triangle has a narrower waist and is a proper V-taper body, with the proportions getting wider gradually as you go up. Trapezoid type has a boxy torso with wide shoulders.

>>18650947Kind of. "Dressing for your body type" is marketing bullshit foisted upon women many decades ago that is now being used on blokes.You might look more attractive with a specific body type, and clothes might fit more readily, but don't let it dictate your life.
>>18651011A lot of trapezoids are gymcels with overdeveloped obliques.
>>18651066Trapezoids is the best body type, because everything looks good on you.
>>18651099No it's not. It makes your torso look like a fridge. Overdeveloped obliques also make it look like you have love handles and a fat waist. The ideal body type is a V-taper (inverted triangle). That's also why suits are designed to simulate that kind of look (broad shoulders and chest and a narrow waist), because it makes you look more masculine.
>>18650947Shapes have an impact on how things look, so it's not horoscope-tier trash. That said, there's no point to making a values judgment based on body shape. Just use it as a rough guide to building a good silhouette for whatever you have.
>>18650947If I were to give it to you, like really give it to you, it would probably be gay.
>>18650947Oval mogs.
>>18651148I think men's suits look better if they taper down then go straight down the legs instead of tapering in then flaring out at the hips again. The trapezoid body shape would fit the former naturally. There is no aesthetic benefit in having hips appear wider than your waist as a man.
>>18652220A man's hips should be slightly wider than his waist because that shows he has strong thighs and glutes (which are great for thrusting), and accentuates his narrow waist, a sign of low body fat because men put on fat easily around the waist.
>>18652232I just disagree. Arnold is still considered the goat and his physique was straight and blocky in the midsection.
>>18652234It was good but not ideal. Arnold in his peak used to have a pretty narrow waist. Same with most golden era bodybuilders who tried not to target the obliques too much in order to get a good V-taper.
