    I hate my thighs. I think they are HUUGE (btw: NOT me in my picture :p)
    They are 19-20 inches, and I'd like to know what's considered "small" / "thin"...
    And please don't answer 10 inches.... that's not realistic for me :/

    So, how small is small thighs? :)

    Kinda rude to anyone who has that size thighs or larger. At 4'11 mine are "huge" too I guess.

    Not being rude to anyone. I think it's too big - MY opinion. Just like everyone else on this thread has their opinion about my profile picture... ;)

    Honestly, it is a tad difficult to give you advice based on your profile picture. They way you have it cropped, it does look like a little girl. BUT, I am going to look past that.

    You might have an hourglass figure. If your waist is 23.5 (very tiny) and your hips are 33.5 (still very tiny) you have a curvy shape even though you are a petite woman. It might be difficult to change your natural shape if you are a curvy petite woman.

    I think that 19-20" sounds perfect to me for a woman as tiny as you are.

    I am 5'4.5" and weigh 127...my thighs are 20.5" and they look normal.

    I think you need to look at your whole body and figure out what your shape is and work it to that advantage. I will never be a super skinny girl because of my shape, but I love a dancer's body...so that is my goal.

    Just make sure you are achieving your goals in a healthy way that will last your whole life time. You do not want to do something that will harm your body when you are older like I am (42)

    I have Chun Li thighs and hated them for a long time. Now that I'm running, they're not really getting smaller, but they feel stronger. I think that's just my shape. Which is fine because really, if they're big and strong, I'm cool with that.

    don't think I'm an hourglass shape - isn't your bust measurement supposed to be the same as your hips for an hourglass? ;s

    Hm.. I've read that models have 18 inches max .. :s

    I'm not saying all models are unhealthy,
    I'm saying that it would be unhealthy for MOST women to be that thin.

    Our body's were meant to work & play. I don't ever want to be so thin or so heavy that I have to sit on the sidelines and watch.

    I think gaps depend on your hip bone structure, so maybe you have very small hips?

    Look at other people in your family, if they have thigh gaps, maybe you can have one, too?
    They tend to run in your genes, the only way I knew I'd get a thigh gap, even if only a small one, is because my sister has one. :p

    Mine are 19 inches and don't seem to join at any point at all from top to knees, oddly.
    I do cycle a lot, however. I am just under 5'10 and 126Ibs.

    Whoever's legs are in your photo look anorexic, in my opinion. They look like a sick person's legs. Skinny or malnutritioned is NOT attractive.

    mine are about 18" at the widest part and i am 5'7. barely a thigh gap though so im sure hip size contributes to that.

    i am also in recovery & trying to gain. I personally think my legs look sickly.
