Skinny or curvy

I think it doesn't really matter as long as the person is comfortable in their own skin.

That's the truth.

You're all making me feel bad... lol
I'm a size 6/8 but i'm only 5ft4 so it kind of balances out.
I'd love to be taller and have bigger boobs, lol but i have my nan's metabolism plus i walk a lot.
Boo... lmao

I like to think everyone is beautiful in their own way.. =/

Hmm.... personally, and not to be so conceited... but I agree with that person about curves just being bait to reel "them" in. I have a step-sister who is skinny, stick - skinny, but she ain't anorexic nor is she bulimic, she eats like choke times of the day. When me, on the other hand, have the curvy part. I hate it because wherever you go, there's always guys checkin' you out.. and gosh do i hate it! it's embarassing too! especially while i'm with my family, dang i hate it.... my sister would tease me about someone just staring.... gosh i hate it... but anyway... i attract bad-boys, aggressive, and forward. immature, and self-centered, coneceited, a**holes. While my sister on the other hand, attracts the sweet, honest, cute, handsome, nice good guys, and romantic ones if I may add. But this question is pretty tough. In my opinion?? I think skinny girls. Maybe... sometimes,... they can't help it. it's in their genes to be skinny, even when they try sooo hard to get fatter they hate it because their metabolism is too fast. So yeah... sometimes we gotta think about those reasonings. don't just automatically assume that just because she's skinny it don't mean she's bulimic or anorexic... so yeah. das my opinion tho.

Haha, you're like the female version of me!

Anne Garcia, i think i love you!

=)

I feel so much better!

This thread was SO interesting.

hardly ANYONE said skinny.

ya'll prefer curvy.

so the media cant be getting to EVERYONE if ya'll saying curvy!!

this has really shocked me!!!

I dont really know what to say, im not skinny, well, my stomach is pretty flat, my thighs are curvy, i have big boobs and big bum and most of the time im okay with how i look.

I think people can be beautiful whatever size they are, truthfully. Beauty is such a complex thing and it really shouldnt be labelled simply "skinny" or "curvy". I mean, you can be skinny and still be curvy, right? And you can be skinny and not be anorexic or bulimic. and you be fat without being curvy, and curvy without being fat.

Its just really interesting to see how many people prefer the label "curvy" to "skinny"

stay healthy, yeah, but some people on here were saying "skinny or healthy" as if skinny people MUST have ED's and therefore MUST be unhealthy? Its not like that. Stay healthy, stay happy. Whether you're size 2 or size 22 it doesnt matter if you eat properly and have a healthy heart.

Dont let your only personality radiate through your outer skin. radiate it from your eyes, and from your heart. Thats all that matters!!!! Once you REALLY know someone, looks become unimportant.

=]

Tee hee heee... Thanks Gem.. lol. I just spoke from the heart... x)

Thats a very good point. probably not. maybe. i dont know. was just trying to make a point lol

Can you be a size 22 and still be healthy?

^
Nope. But are they not beautiful? I mean what if there the nicest person in the world? Someone out there finds them beautiful dont they? i think thats what she meant by that.

And those who are size 22 may have an eating disorder themselves. What about compulsive overeating disorder and binge eating disorder? There eating disorders in themselves arnt they?

So if size 22 is beautifull to someone
size 0 must be to someone else

I think that curvy is so much more beautiful. I'm curvy and thin. I think that no matter what body size you are, you should love yourself. Apples and pears are fruits. (as in people are people no matter what size)

Curvy- hands down

Curvy - love me some corn bread

Ok, I know people on here are saying curvy. Which I suppose I am somewhat. But I envy my skinny friends. I feel like an ugly freak next to them. I'm def very self conscious about my body. So I say skinny. And I know im probably the only one. lol

The guys I know prefer curvy . They just have to be healthy . I used to want to be skinny, but my guys all made me realize that my hour glass figure is something to be proud of despite that I'm not big upper & big bottomed -.-

I'd rather be curvy tho (: I eat a lot -- and I mean, A LOTT . I gain weight, but it's not very noticable unless I'm in a bikini and just finished eating :D

..__MiNDYY

CORN BREAD

Not really "skinny," but average with curves

Wow, this thread is depressing me. "I want to be skinny but have boobs, a butt and hips." Okay, larger hips make child-birth easier, a big butt is more comfortable to sit on, and I hope to God that at least half of you understand the original purpose of breasts (They're not just sex objects? Really?) Gahh...Let me be honest. Little hips, twig legs, and smallish boobs--all run in my family! However, I happen to like my long, thin legs. They make me feel graceful. Although I do have hips, I am no Marilyn Monroe...and I couldn't develop those humongous curves if I wanted! My boobs aren't "voluptuous," but for that I am thankful. They are big enough to feed a baby when the time comes, and small enough that I don't need to wear three sport bras in order to go running. I happen to think I am quite lovely and feminine, so before you start listing off what you prefer in a woman's physique, please think twice as to why. Especially you females. I like Sibylline's response.

^ Wow, that made absolutely NO SENSE.

I guess my point is...healthy is sexy. Confidence is sexy. If you don't have curves, don't worry about it. A lot of you seem to want or like "the hourglass figure look" for all the wrong reasons. Plus some other stuff I tried to get across, but now I've confused myself, so never mind.

K bye.

I don’t think it is size that matters at all. It is confidence and attitude.

For example…I went clubbing last week in loose jeans, new rocks and a loose thundercats t-shirt. I had my hair up in a bun and no make-up on. I got in every club despite the dress code because of my attitude and confidence. I simply thought ‘I’m out to have a good night, I’m more interested in feeling good than looking it and that’s that!’

I had so many guys approach me asking to dance, buying me drinks, talking to me. People said I looked beautiful…I can bet you if I’d worn heels and a skirt no one would’ve even noticed my existence, never mind whether I was skinny or curvy.

I’m about 5.6 or 5.7 feet tall and I used to be a size 8 clothing with 32 EE breasts (naturally). I have an hour glass figure and small waist.

Now I am a size 12 and it makes no difference. The only difference I’ve ever noticed in how I person looks is how they portray themselves and their attitude.

I have a friend who’s a size 22 in clothing and she’s 5.3 feet tall. She never struggles to get the blokes, she is absolutely stunning and has a lovely figure, she has curves and amazing breasts and her legs are great. What makes everyone notice her beauty is her attitude and personality. Nomatter what size you are ultimately it is your personality which will determine whether people see you as ugly or beautiful.

You can be the prettiest lass around, but if you’re a bitch people will start to look for a reason to find you ugly and you’ll ooze repulse…honestly.

You know I'm really feeling the feminine love in this thread. I'd like to feel more of it, but, well being sleepover at work will do that to a young man.

Anyway, i'm with you all. I have no hips to speak of, my legs, though slim and shapely are quite hairy and my chest isn't even bra worthy...I have to shave every day and I have freakishly long arms.

I wish I could love myself like you girls, I mean, I wish I could love myself with you girls, you know..get together for support and stuff.

Any advice would be good.

Girl power.

Lol...try wax instead of the razor, softer skin and the effects las longer ;)

Does waxing last 3 weeks for you? I was told it would, but it didn't. Hmm...

It would. Damn sexism and social pressure. It sucks because we can't be that angry. We support the expectation by shaving/waxing.

Oh, come on! Waxing doesn't hurt a bit. Once your leg goes numb, the tingling feels kind of good.
