    when i think of curves these are the women in hollywood that pop in my mind...scarlett johansen, jessica biel, meghan good, selma hayek, etc.

    What is it with people calling Jessica Biel curvy? I just don't see it. i think she has a rockin' athletic bod (similar to Cameron Diaz). Or it may just be my jealous inner 14 year old that she's engaged to Justin Timberlake.

    I fricken love beyonce, female crush. :flowerforyou:
    Curvy to me= a waist that is proportionally smaller than bust and hips/bum. Thats not likely to change, with weight loss, unless you also lose quiet a bit of BF.

    Curvy - smooth sound waves with a valley you can glide your hand along; does not include two folds of skin pinched together and layered under their own weight

    I am *NOT* curvy.

    I've never had a well-defined waist. It's just kind of straight. However, I've always had a flat stomach, even now.

    I have good sized "girls".

    I have no butt (working on those glutes though...fingers crossed).

    Yet, I have muscular hams and quads.

    Almost everyone's waist goes in a little bit - doesn't make them an hour glass. But I agree with the person above you, she's more athletic.

    True. But I still believe she has a lovely shape & I do see a nice curve, least imo.
