    I just measure my wrists, to determine my frame size! In other areas where you deposit majority of your fat, might not accurately reflect; your overall frame size. I've never seen anyone with Popeye's wrists, therefore I believe that that's; the most trusted area to measure!

    Elbow breadth is easier to mismeasure I've been told and I experiences the same as you, mini wrists and medium elbows. I am definitely small framed though.

    The only way I'm weird is that so of my measurements say I'm large. Very large framed. I'd be large framed if I was a man, and I'm a woman. I like to say that it's my viking ancestors...they didn't call women "shieldmaidens" for nothing.

    Im in the same boat and naturally very muscular for a woman. I used to hate this body type because I didnt feel feminine or pretty. Now I have embraced it and learned how to dress for my shape.

    I have an absolutely tiny frame. I'm male and 5'2", and I still have visible (grabbable) excess body fat when I weigh 102 lbs. My wrist size yields a "small" frame, but my elbow says I'm medium (ahahaaa no).

    My wrist are very large and don't change size healthy weight or overweight around 7 and half inches. I am a woman and this number is large for a man. I have no fat on my feet but I need to buy extra large shoes.
    As a woman even when I was at healthy weight I could see my hands and feet were larger than my partner.
    I can't buy bangles or watches or shoes in the high street.
    I can see there is no fat there but make me feel very embarrassed.
