Well depends on your definition of "beautiful" I think. But like another said, it is kind of like comparing apples to oranges. Different features and parts.

Neither is more beautiful. But different people might find one more beautiful than the other for several different reasons.
For one thing, men will most probably always say that the female body is more beautiful simply because they are men and so they think a female body is hot.
Females might say a male body is more beautiful because they are attracted to men. But some females will say a female body is more attractive because they are for complementing their fellow women.
Another thing to consider is that, in the media, women are far more commonly portrayed on sexy and beautiful than men are. This can easily cause people to automatically think of women are the more beautiful gender. But you have consider that there are just as many men out there in real life with perfect bodies as there are women. And there are also very many men and women with imperfect bodies.
Both males and females can have beautiful bodies in their own ways. Beauty can be found in the soft curves of a female body. And it can be found in the sculpted muscles of a male body.
Another point of note is that, while it is true that in modern western culture the female body is idealized more as the picture of beauty, in other cultures such as ancient Greece, the male body was worshiped as the more beautiful. Greek sculptures carved a lot more sculptures of muscular male athletes than they did of of smooth, curvey women.

Well obviously as I man I find the female form more beautiful since I'm sexually attracted to women and not men. But objectively speaking, I must say this. What is the definition we go by with "beautiful". Many people say the female form, because prettiness is what people refer to beautiful. Many judge grace, softness as beautiful or what appears more delicate looking and less rugged. Therefore, if that is the case the female form would be more "beautiful". But if we mean beautiful as in more "attractive or better looking" I would think, but women are strange sometimes that a straight man would find the female form sexier and the straight women would find the male form sexier or "hotter", which should imply which is more attractive. I mean I don't mean to be blunt, isn't this kind of like comparing apples to oranges.
Men and women's bodies are like yin and yang they are opposites and complimentary. soft feminine features, hard masculine features, curves for women, muscles and muscle defintion for men, grace for women, strength and power for men. How do you compare apples to oranges. I think men love the soft curves and women love the tone and the look of men's muscles.

It depends on what sex you are. If you're a male, you're more likely to think the female body is more beautiful. If you're a female, the reverse is true. I am a female and can't understand for the life of me exactly what is so beautiful about breasts or wide hips. Breasts are just globs of fat that sag without support.

The male body, definitely. You're probably not going to get many objective answers to this question because our sexual orientation plays a major part in which gender's body we find more beautiful. I'm a straight female and, although I don't think the female body is "ugly", I find the male form vastly more pleasing visually.

The female body is more beautiful. But to me, only the male body is attractive.
I'm a 15 year old girl by the way.

the female body has curves, the male body has angles..

When your in the gym and everyone is working out both bodies are equally as beautiful. Once they start to change and get a little puffy women and more beautiful . When you get into being overweight and obese both are equally unattractive.

Even though, as a guy, I am often impressed by some men's physiques (some dudes you just gotta salute. Nice job, man!) I definitely find the female body to be the beautiful one.
Of course, that could just be my biology talking, but research suggests that ain't it... I just like women.
O.o.i.I.: you are mistaken, sir. Michaelangelo's David has a good deal of pubic hair. The rest of him is marble smooth.
