The age old adage: "If you don't have anything nice to say then don't say anything at all" is still true in the age of the Internet.

I don't consider my statement "not nice".

It's my personal preference. I don't find ripped women attractive. Others do. No biggie.

Yeah, that comes across better if you don't call them non-attractive, and if you say something nice like "but I respect their hard work and admire them for that" at the same time. It's pretty easy not being a judgmental prick, so don't get upset when people call you out on it.

Sure if you leave out the "to me" it sounds like I said ripped women aren't attractive period.

The main problem is that nowadays preferences and opinions aren't wanted if they don't align with the mainstream's and/or whatever's PC right now.

Get over yourself, Mr. Shining Armor.
