What is "too skinny" for you?

Well, we were doing so well, but I see the calling people "gross" portion of the thread has begun.

Also the wanting to puke portion has begun as well (see above).

/edited

I have a serious phobia of spine bones showing. Like if you see a girl on the beach is so skinny you can see each of her vetebra showing through her skin...I want to puke! I have an actual physical reaction. Spine bones visable. I...just...can't.

I hope you never meet me on a beach then, because I'm boney as all hell!

i'm a bit "bony" as well. I've never witnessed those around me puking in disgust but perhaps i should stay off the beach just in case. wouldn't want to ruin anyone's vacation....

A short retelling of my reactions as I read

OP: :noway:

Page one: :huh:

Marilyn Monroe nonsense: :yawn:

Page two:

Page three: :smooched: :drinker:

Start of page four: :noway:

End of page four: :grumble: :explode: :noway: :noway:

Page five: *table flip*

I didn't really know where to put this question, anyways.

I know BMI's and charts , I am asking about the look. At what point, a person looks unattractively thin to you? Could you give examples from people I might find by google(celebrities?)


Thank you.

Only people who look sick, look unappealing to me. Younger Megan Fox looks amazing and so does Tatiana Maslany (see image below). They seem comfortable in their weight and are not super thin.

the machinist thing? i didnt want to say something.. but wouldn't the average person DIE from losing that much weight? in the picture you're talking about, pukey? didnt he lose like 100 lbs for that?

No, I wasn't talking about that photo. The person that posted above me said she wants to puke when she sees spine bones. You can't see mine when I'm standing (my muscles stick out much further than my spine, which goes inward), but probably can to some degree when bent over, with a rounded back.

Also small bones don't break easily. Breaking is related to bone density or extreme excessive force (in reply to your deleted comment).

OHHH. i get it. sorry, im slow! cant you see EVERYBODY'S spine bones with a rounded back? im sure yours is normal.. [and you're banging hot, i gotta say..sorry, i creeped your pics lol to see the spine thing you were talking about [which i didnt see!]. you look like Jennifer Conelly/Amanda Peets love child!]

I got fat when I quit smoking in 2001, but I got boobs, so that was a plus. Then I went on a diet and got healthy again, and my parents-in-law's 80-year-old male friend was absolutely horrified. I thought I looked good, but he thought I had lost all of my... assets lol.

I think you can pull off skinny if you have nice toned muscles. I think being just skinny without curves OR muscles doesn't look good in a dress. I'm just sayin', if I were a Lesbian, I'd be going for the ladies in Playboy magazine, not the ones in Vogue. I think you got to either have a bit of "cushion for the pushin" or some muscles. Something so you aren't just a stick. But that's my personal opinion. According to Roman statues, women should be soft, not really toned, and of average weight, not skinny and not chunky. I think the skinny "flapper" ideal from the 20's and the Twiggy look from the 60's are artificial fads, and though I do think skinny women should celebrate their lovability and worth as much as any overweight lovely lady, I think they are both extremes and not my own personal "ideal."
