    Most ladies will tell you you’re too skinny out of the new found jealousy of your weight loss!

    Never been told I'm too skinny, just that I watch what I eat too strictly, or that I'm over training. But do you, disregard everyone else!

    Maybe the men are interested in having sex with you. Just a thought.

    I've had nice comments from both and a couple wtf comments from both. Just depends on the person I guess.

    "Too skinny". How often do you see a person in Western countries who are too skinny and don't have a medical condition? I can't remember the last time.

    Women will tell you what they want. Men won't say a word for of being sued for sexual harassment at work.

    I've had men and women say that I'm too skinny now, but that's from family. I've certainly had a few snide comments made and several inquiries about my health from women. One friend asked if my doctor had talked to me about being underweight (I'm not). Men will typically ask me specific questions about my diet and/or workouts.
