Pear shaped women

32-25-35

I have TINY boobs. Seriously, like mosquito bites. Then, there are my 19.5" thighs. Good God.

I'm a little confused..

Looking at some of your pics, some of you don't look like pears.

I don't think your hips just have to be wide to be a pear, I think you have to have a significantly smaller waist, or be much smaller up top...

Excuse me if this post comes across as *****y, I don't intend it to be. I rewrote it more than once to change its tone, but was unsuccessful. Please, nobody take this as a dig because it's not.

To be a pear your hips have to measure more than your bust. My hips 42 bust 36 waist 33. I'm a pear.

Apple (triangle downward)
Apple shaped women have broad(er) shoulders compared to their (narrower) hips.[18] Apple shaped women tend to have slim legs/thighs, while the abdomen and chest look larger compared to the rest of the body. Fat is mainly distributed in the abdomen, chest, and face.
Banana or straight (rectangular)
The waist measurement is less than 9 inches smaller than the hips or bust measurement.[18] Body fat is distributed predominantly in the abdomen, buttocks, chest, and face. This overall fat distribution creates the typical ruler (straight) shape.
Pear or spoon or bell (triangle upward)
The hip measurement is greater than the bust measurement.[18] The distribution of fat varies, with fat tending to deposit first in the buttocks, hips, and thighs. As body fat percentage increases, an increasing proportion of body fat is distributed around the waist and upper abdomen. The women of this body type tend to have a (relatively) larger rear, robust thighs, and a small(er) bosom.
Hourglass shape. (triangles opposing, facing in)
The hip and bust are almost of equal size with a narrow waist.[18] Body fat distribution tends to be around both the upper body and lower body. This body type enlarges the arms, chest, hips, and rear before other parts, such as the waist and upper abdomen.

I'm a pear but I do have more up top to balance it some.

Chest- 39
Waist- 30
Hips- 42

i think im a pear and im mourning because i wrongly thought i was an hourglass all my life.

waist 32
breasts 38
hips 41
legs 25

from the waist up im ok-ish even my tummy is ok and i have a flat non existant bum but my legs dont seem to get smaller!

I would still say you are hourglass. bust and hips have to be close to the same measurement and it sounds like yours are. 3 inches is not much of a difference and as long as your waist is 10 inches smaller than your hips then you are hourglass shaped.

ladies those of you with a (lucky) big bust and larger hips are not pear, you are hour glass xx

What do you think I count as, then?

I used to be very very small up top, but to be fair, I was like 14 and I developed late.

Now, at nearly 19, I'm 38C. Decent size.

Hourglass or pear? Or both? I have pics.

You look like a pear to me. Your shoulders are narrower than your hips, even though you are busty (I am shaped similar, I don't have tons of pics up so you can see)

I didn't read through this whole thread but only saw one person with hips at my size!

Waist: 40
Hips: 46
Bust: 39
Arm: 14
Thigh: 27
Calf: 16

Pear all the way! I actually kinda like the look...I'll probably like it more once the hips go down a bit...but I will always be a pear and that is fine with me. When I lost my weight before I retained my pear shape, and I find that I have become even more pear shaped.

My measurements are a lot like yours actually:
Waist: 36.5
Hips: 46
Bust: 42.5
Arm: 15
Thigh: 25 (mine started at 27. 200 squats is my best friend!)
Calf: 15.5

Probably not much help but having babies made the difference for me. I was very much a pear but since my 2 boys, my top half has caught up with my hips :-/ TBH I think I preferred being a pear!

And just remember, "Fat bottomed girls make the rocking world go 'round."

i'm 5 ft 5 inches weigh 152

bust 33
waist 26.5
hips 40.5
thigh 22


It's nice to know I am not alone. wow there are a LOT of us.
