The men who are constantly sizing themselves versus other men are more likely to care about being muscular. Women just tend to care more about their body type and dress than men do.

Also, I believe there are two competing standards of beauty for women in the US. There is the stereotypical skinny standard that it prominent in many magazines and fashion and there is also a curvier standard of beauty, which is becoming more popular. I hear both standards are 'ideal' all the time.
Another pearl of wisdom from my friend's FIL is "There's an ass for every seat."
