Thigh Gaps

When I was younger (and much thinner) I always had one, and that that was normal, and got scared when I gained weight and it went away. Then on The Doctor's, they said it's all about the way you are structured, and that if you're not built that way, it could be dangerous to try and get one.

To be honest, I never really bothered to look and see if anyone else ever had one. I just knew that I did, and that was normal for me, then I didn't.

I am overweight @5'8" and 170 lbs (and good amount of muscle from lifting weights to tone)., large boned woman and I have thigh gaps...I never thought they were attractive personally, you can have mine lol. Everyone says that I have killer legs tho but not due to that.. My sister (very small boned) had them when she was 5'10 and 120 lbs and even when she gained weight up to 200 lbs, my Mom (medium boned)has them now at almost 80 (5'7" 120 lbs). I guess they are in my genes. Trying to starve yourself or over exercise to get "thigh gaps" is kinda silly in my opinion. I remember my Mom hating them when she was in her 30's because they were not in vogue when she was growing up.

Learn to be happy with yourself and what genes, God (whatever your belief system) has given you! Don' t let someone with mental problems influence you!

I prefer knee gaps.

knee gaps are where its at!

Shhhh you'll start them on a new trend.

Even at my skinniest of 115 lbs I've never had a thigh gap. I carry most of my weight in my hips and thighs. Women are built to have bigger thighs so the media misleads us all in thinking that a gap is normal.

Personally I think thigh gaps are horrible to look at. I've not seen a woman with one that didn't look ill.

you don't have to say negative things about people who have one. Its bone structure. It is not attainable for everyone.

I realized today, that I might possibly end up with a thigh gap once I reach my goal weight. I have never had one before, because I have always been bigger...

...This honestly bothers me. I feel like the "thigh gap" has become a symbol for anorexia. I am trying to think positive...but I am actually hoping that I do NOT end up with a thigh gap.

...and I believe OP is a troll.

Bet your hair will become grey some day too. That's the problem with having goals based on appearance rather than ability. Nothing wrong with trying to maximize your particular body, but concern over thigh gaps takes it to an insane level.

I prefer knee gaps.

knee gaps are where its at!

I love you

I find it so amazing that such an arbitrary and trivial body component has reached such epic importance to so many women.

Forget about it OP and just concentrate on having a healthy body.
