I want to call myself curvy

I love how this has gone from 'fat girls' thinking they are curvy to slim girls/the skinny fat crowd with no curves calling themselves curvy. :huh:
I'm thin yes. But I have very wide hips. Very large chest, and a tiny waist... thus ME being curvy.
Lol girl you sound bitter as hell. I haven't seen body shaming like that since...well... the last post like this came up. You're clearly dealing with envy; step off.
Lol I don't know wtf you're saying. Punctuation is your friend.
BTW: Big boobs =/= hourglass. You've talked to the OP and other people and LITERALLY have said, "I'm curvy, you're not curvy." You, my friend, are the subject of this original post. The people you are attack clearly have hourglass measurements, they're just not... as big as you think they need to be. Like someone else said: .7 ratio from hips to waist. Classic hourglass. You can't be too subjective with math.
"Get a life" is so stereotypically what people say when they're losing an argument they were ALREADY partaking in, if not causing.
1. You should know what words mean before you use them (btw: A dictionary wouldn't help you with grammar. Perhaps a 3rd grade textbook).
2. You were attacking people. You were body shaming. Look THAT term up, too. You specifically told people, "You are not "A." I am "A." That is no different than saying, "You are not pretty. I am pretty" or "You are not thin. I am thin," and in THIS case, there actually IS scientific rationale behind an hourglass figure. People have done the ratios, examined the evolutionary aspect of the shape, etc. You can't just subjectively say, "Lol, you're not a big girl like me, you're not curvy." Which is exactly what you're doing.
3. Again, your "idea of what curvy is" is what this post was about. Women that are overweight and have bigger boobs, butts, and hips call themselves "curvy." Can they be hourglass at a heavier weight? Of course, one would have to be severely obese to obscure body shape that much. But are many women not actual hourglasses (certain waist/hip ratio), but have exaggerated boobs/butt/hips from heaviness? Yes, hence why "curvy" has become synonymous with "heavy" nowadays, HENCE the post.
Lol, and if that size zero has a roughly 10 inch ratio change between her waists and hips, she would be! You were being offensive, YOU made it out to be like that! You admit to not reading a whole post and say, "Why should I?" than rant regardless? If you're offended by me consistently correcting you, with evidence (including quotes of exactly what YOU said), than perhaps you're seeing something you don't want to?
You haven't understood a goddamn word I've said. God bless the USA.0 -

I think everybody can call themselves curvy.
As long as they don't expect everyone else to agree.0 -
Can't even get through this whole stupid thread but it makes me glad that I'm stick straight and don't ever have to argue about the meaning of "curves". Seriously, who gives a *kitten*?!
We have enough problems as women without all this ridiculousness.0 -

Wait wait wait. OP can tell all overweight people they aren't curvy, but this poster saying the OP's boobs look too small to be considered curvy in her opinion is body shaming?
Double standard.0 -

I call myself "bootyfull" and move on with my life.
Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
PS: I now have the words "My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die" stuck in my head on repeat. So....thank you, person who's name I don't remember.0 -
I use to say I was an hour glass....then I did the measurments...I'm a ruler LOL such is life
I'm a ruler: my bust, waist, hips don't VARY much.
Since having my kido and losing weight, gaining weight, losing weight....in tight dresses, I look pear shaped hahaha
I think the point the OP was trying to make was that too often people use the term curvey when really they're just....round lol0 -
curvy is more cuddly...just sayin :laugh:0

Hazel, don't waste your time trying to defend your opinions. I too wondered what her chest size was when she told everyone she had a VERY LARGE chest. Like someone said before, you can be curvy thin or fat. If I had to describe the OP it would be "thin". Curvy is not the word that would come to mind.0 -

I so agree OP! Since when do you have to be overweight to have a big booty either? My 39" inch hips are plenty of badonkadonk for little ole me.0

You weren't stick straight. You had curves, but they weren't as defined as they are now though. You look fantastic!0 -

Oh absolutely agree with you! It's a shape. Not a size or weight that defines "curvy". It's just the shape of your body.0 -

I'm really not in the mood to justify how big my boobs are. I wear a 36DDD. I can't buy bras at normal stores, not even VS because my chest is too big. That's all I'm saying.0 -

This thread is still going? Who cares if you are overweight, "curvy overweight", thin curvy, thin straight, apple, pear, banana? Lets stop throwing labels around, fighting over who gets said labels, etc. It's all pretty damn stupid.0

A person can be thin or skinny/fat or whatever and still be curvy. Because it refers to the shape of your body, not the amount of fat your body is carrying. I would identify myself as curvy, but I'm sure you would disagree, even though my hips are a full 10 inches bigger around than my waist.
Apparently everyone missed the part of the sentence that said "with no curves and call themselves curvy". I completely agree that people of all weights can be curvy. I know it's a shape, I'm just pointing out the one or two people here who are complaining about "fat" women using the term because they think they are curvy and thin, when clearly in their pictures they are nearly straight as an arrow from top to bottom.
If your hips are that much larger than your waist then yes, I would consider you curvy. Mine are about the same and I suppose that would make me curvy, though I've only just seen myself as fat. :laugh:0 -

This "joke" has always infuriated me. Its so damn hurtful. The hatred of thin, non-curvy, athletic women is so harsh and uncalled for. My mother is one of them and I guarantee you she is a real woman.
