    You must be a teenager, this sounds like a teenager.

    OP, you can also lose the fat on top of them to make them smaller, though you will see the definition more. How much weight are you trying to lose? I am also thinking you may have Body dysmorphic disorder. How big are your thighs?

    If you are a woman then your legs are feminine.

    I understand that you may not like your legs and that's just too bad because there's nothing you can do except learn to love them. Saying muscular legs aren't feminine is disrespectful to yourself and all other women. Stop trying to define feminine as some unrealistic standard because it's just going to cause you to hate yourself forever.

    This is my friend Lynndsey Miller. She's a bikini competitor and a powerlifting competitor. She's taken first place in both. She lifts very heavy and has "muscular" legs, but I think she looks pretty darn feminine.

    Complaining about having muscles. Oy, what will these chicks come up with next? I'll take these horribly masculine and "bulky" legs you've supposedly have. No problem!

    Revise your definition of beauty so that it includes you. If you are unable to do that, then seek professional help.

    Did someone seriously post a name of calf muscle removal surgery? Is that a thing? I hope that's a joke. I'm tired today so I may be missing sarcasm.

    I've seen some teenagers who are obsessed with not having their thighs touch. Some magazines are also airbrushing in a gap between the thighs to make models seem skinnier since the gap is supposed to be attractive. It's unnatural in most women and it's gross in my opinion.

    mines natural! and thighs rubbing together to me is gross.

    There's a mighty boosh episode where Vince is trying to fit in some tiny skinny jeans and he wheels around in a wheelchair to whither them down. You could try that...

    But srsly it's just genetics, I'm 30lbs overweight and you can still see every muscle in my legs. Now I'm running I've got quads you could crack rocks on.

    I used to think I had bulky calves, but once I got down to a comfortable weight, I started to love my legs. I have some sweatpant capris with elastic around the bottom and they used to leave marks on my calves. Now they don't, they just hang there. All I had to do was lose a little weight, like 14 pounds. I like to keep my weight around 128-130. If I go a couple of pounds over that, I notice it everywhere, including my calves.

    Your thighs touching mostly have to do with the shape and width of your pelvis, and that is bone girl!! You can't change that. You have to work with what you've got!! Also, confidence is sexy and beautiful. Work on that.

    LOL, that was me. You must be very tired! If you re-read it, you will see it was a joke. :) There is no such thing as cosmetic gastrocnemectomy...not by any reputable surgeon, anyway. Maybe Michael Jackson's doctors would've done it, but it's not a real thing. :)

    But I'm serious about not liking my calves. They're too big. Not only is there starting to be a very clear line between the bottom of them and the top, but they're just too big. Too wide. So much bigger than the bottom of my thigh. I don't like them and I wish people would stop commenting on the muscle.

    I'm hoping that when I'm thinner, it will all come together better. Gotta live with what I have and be happy to be the best me I can be. (But I'd be happier if my calves were a little smaller.)
