There is nothing wrong with pursuing a ideal body type unless it is extremely over-weight or under-weight. being fit is a great thing to pursue. when the attractive physique comes into the question, no it is not important... unless you are much too under-weight (that is not attractive at all, that is a real problem in our society, girls wanting to be really skinny it is not good for your health one bit.) AN ideal body type for both genders would be fit and healthy. that doesn't mean buff and that you lift weights everyday, it means you are eating the right foods and exercising regularly. A couple of years ago I had some real trouble with my weight. I was chubby but I wanted to be really skinny like the girls in the magazines, so... silly me decided to stop eating, skipped breakfast lunch and tea but had an occasional apple. that was horrific. why why why. it failed, I became anorexic and had to go to hospital... I am all better now, chubbed up but not over-weight. you need to aim for fit. eat right, exercise and love life.
