    I think people should remember that if you have wide hips, having a thigh gap does not automatically make you unhealthy.

    Not that I think it's something to specifically work toward, as it's not realistic for all body types, but having one doesn't mean you're automatically too skinny.

    I'm still trying to get people to call it a vagina window.

    I think it will make the trend die down

    I will now refer to it as this and only this term. I will also educate others.

    YES

    Think I can hit 200lbs bulking and still have a thigh gap?

    So, I'm curious. If the wind blew through your window--or you went for a run, would it make a whistling sound?

    I like to imagine it's more like a kazoo sound.

    It just makes sense. It's not going to be much of a compliment when girls are saying

    'Oh wow, you have such a big vagina window.!"

    we could totally make an accessories line based on this concept. imagine the curtains.

    Pretty sure vagina curtains are something else entirely. And now I feel unwell.

    No way. It will only encourage people to work hard for a way to open the window.

    I guess if you were a competitive cyclist you might get said "vagina window" and still be healthy. But, to quote:

    "but it adds nothing to a nice butt...."

    Quite true. Hemingway had a similar observation in one of his books, so this has been going on for years.

    Lets not get mixed up between a box gap and a thigh gap.

    Thigh gap - nothing touches

    Box gap - thighs touch but there is that neat little heart shaped gap at the top


    aw crap - i have that.



    how do i fix it?

    or is this like - a peep hole instead of a window?

    WAT DUZ IT MATR IF U RNT 20 LBS OMG #skinandbones #nothingtastesasgoodasskinnyfeels #haventeateninthreedays #bonesarebeautiful #fattymcfatfat

    My brain hurts from typing that.

    My brain hurts from reading it :p

    You're welcome. When you think about that headache you have later, you can whisper "Pistolas" and shake your fist at the sky.

    I should have someone film me doing that in a crowded downtown area. Then edited it, add some music, some graphics. Would be just like the movies :p

    I like it. Pistolas sounds like a good archnemesis name.

    MENDOZAAAAA

    Same. Must make sure all my friends are aware. lol

    My husband just inquired, so is the male version the "mangina window"?
    Weiner window?
