    I feel like some things are going over your head.

    I feel as though you don't know when I am serious or not. Maybe you haven't seeing the many times I refer to MFP forums as The Twilight Zone.

    Nice save ??

    Only if you were eating placenta at the time.

    Of course, it's very nutritious.

    Wow like using a muscle every day for regular bowel movements has any effect on my personality. It might make me happier than an irritated, ignorant man trying to poorly insult me over a muscle. BRAVO

    Wow. Seems he called it. :laugh:

    Yep! :smiley:

    Actually, my hip dip changes location when fashions change. When jeans rode high and underwear was high-cut too, my hip dip was higher. When low-rise was in, my hip dip was lower. Now that my jeans are cut more towards the middle, even though my undies are low-cut, I have a double hip dip - a shallow dip halfway up and another shallow dip a bit below it. It's far from permanent, though the longer you wear a clothing item, the longer it takes for your form to fill back out to normal.

    For another example, there is a woman who was in the Guinness Book of World Records for awhile (and might still be) for having an incredibly tiny waist. She wore her corset 23 hours a day and only removed it for bathing, so even when it was off, she still held the same exaggerated hourglass shape. On the other hand, I only wore a corset occasionally and my XS waist size post-corset only held for a couple hours before returning to my normal S.

    This isn't to say that your genetics, diet, and activity level do not have an effect. They do - usually much more, and far more permanent, of an effect.

    Still, modern research on clothing styles considered, just say no to skinny jeans. One of many examples: http://www.medicaldaily.com/fashion-victim-tight-pants-experiences-nerve-and-muscle-damage-medical-conditions-339398

    Yes, a real steel boned corset can change your shape. But it is exerting far more pressure than a pair of jeans or underwear will. And it is not moving the fat, it can actually cause the organs to shift. It's not the same thing.
    I have a hip dip. I have never worn jeans tight around my hips. I can't stand them feeling plus, because of my build, my jeans are usually too large in the waist to fit my legs.

    Your article even says skinny jeans are safe if worn property. The woman in the case study had a pair on so tight they restricted blood flow.

    This is the result of years of style changes. From short socks to long socks, leg warmers, hot shorts, low rise and high rise pants, tight tops of varying reveals, headbands even, and maybe some bracelets?

    I have
    It's called hip dips! Google image it. It's completely normal and natural, not caused by your jeans, and nothing to be irritated about :)

    Yep. I majorly have this. And when I gain weight, it goes straight into my love handles. I don't think you could wear low rise pants enough to have this occur.

    Please tell me this is some sort of trolling, OP.

    I am sure Cosmo will be a long with an article to help us shortly. I'm also tired of not feeling self-conscious about all of my body parts.

    I know what you are talking about! My pants are worn around my hips like most people and right at the point where the top of the pants sit there is an accumulation of fat, its called dun-lop disease. Yet the part where my belt cinches around my hips there is no fat. I think my pants and belt have formed this accumulation. I believe what you're saying is possible.

    Sounds like fitting data to the, er, curve, so to speak.

    Maybe the real story here is that pant-makers noted the prevalence of muffin-tops in today's SAD society and re-designed their wares accordingly?

    Fortunately the condition, whether it was aided by or had nothing to do with pant design (not a believer myself), is reversible.

    *snickers* :p

    Just in case, I am going to wear nothing but compression clothing.

    And a codpiece.

    You'll see.

    I think for the cameltoe to be truly hot, you have to have a thigh gap. Cause you know, a thigh gap can really make that cameltoe pop.

    Yes! I was just thinking the other day about how I need to find a new body part to become focused on defining myself by... from this day forward I shall be known as "unusually shaped camel toe girl!"

    (that may have been a bad thing to announce on a public forum)

    This is pure genius, a thing of beauty, and a little confusing because I don't think the camel toe is the tight spot...

    Hmmm... I realize you are using 'pop' here to suggest that it would stand out and make it look all that much more awesome, but it gave me a great idea! Camel toe popping, the next plastic surgery for those with unsightly camel toe... Do not try this at home kids, leave it for the professionals (I wonder if they do lipo for this area?)

    I can see that video is a little bit older (released in '91 according to Wikipedia, the most essential and accurate source of all times, all hail Wikipedia)... prehistoric twerking. It's good to see how far we've come!
