    OMG I always thought it made it look like I was wearing underwear that was way too tight but people think it's sexy?! I must ask my boyfriend when I get home!

    I realise now how *****y that sounded but I meant mine looks like that, probably because my triangle is due to flab rather than muscle! I really smooshed them together to hide it in my profile picture XD

    Now a question, is this what everyone is calling thigh gap? :P I could care less if anyone has one, but I'm interested in knowing if its just general holes that count or something since everyone's talking about it haha...

    For me if my legs are together with knees touching there's a hole between my knees and a part of my thigh and then another hole between the largest part of my thigh and my magic bits like the above poster. What's thigh gap, all of it? top half? bottom half? What's the rest. Let's put some terminology on made up insecurities :P

    I think this tumblr_lyg2b9WOPD1rnitsco4_400.jpg is a thigh gap. Why this seems a goal to many, I'm not quite sure. I'd much rather have "that sexy triangle"!

    Then WTF do I have? haha
    Slight skinny thigh flab? :laugh:

    it's called a thigh gap and has nothing to do with being fit vs being skinny. it's genetics if you will have one or not, based on your hip width and other various factors. I say this because although you consider it a NSV, it is not possible for all women to have this, and could get others discouraged.

    That being said, congrats to you on being the best you that you were born to be!

    I had a guy friend once refer to this very positively as "factory air." As in, if a woman has this, she comes with factory air, like a car comes with factory upgrades - or I assumed that's what he meant! Ever since, I have wondered if I have achieved it! Congrats! I have to agree that it is a NSV and I can see why guys think its sexy!

    HAH that is awesome.:laugh:

    And RE: thigh gap -- I have dealt with many ED friend in the last few years, and they only brought me down... but "thigh gap" = "knees together, thighs apart" as the other poster posted in the picture. no thanks!!:noway:
    Yes, I'm enjoying the fact that so many people on this thread are saying they don't want it. I've had whatever I have at 30 lbs over what I am now. I don't call it "thigh gap" I call it "bone structure" and weight distribution (My thighs are wider in the side view vs front).

    I remember when I posted this pic 13599033_4692.jpg at 120 something a few of my friends got excited and told me how 'jealous' they were about what they informed me to be 'thigh gap" lol. Anyway, hard to pick out from the pic and with clothes on from the top but like I said in the previous post, there's a point my thighs touch but then they stop touching again. I need to put some kind of terminology on it. I don't want to be different. I don't have thick thighs. I don't have thigh gap? I'm asian in the thigh world. I'm not black or white :tongue:

    Buzzkill! Who cares if not every woman can get it?? She can still be proud of it and it is an NSV! I'll never be able to have beautiful womanly curves, but I guarantee you every woman blessed with a coke bottle figure is extremely proud of it even though it's not attainable for many women due to genetics and it doesn't bother me a bit! I didn't know a NSV had to be attainable by everyone??

    to me this looks quite sickly... makes me want to put a cookie in their hand...

    sexy triangle all the way!!! WOOP WOOP & congrats!!
    really like it and hope to achieve mine soon ;)
    While I definitely do not think it is a sign of health. As a person who has quazi it and who usually eats over 2000 calories most days, I would appreciate it if you didn't insult other members on the forum. Not everyone can or wants to alter their bone structure with a cookie to please you.

    Can we get back to the OP and her victory, not what is considered a thigh gap or not?

    Great job, OP! You look amazing and your thighs are uber sexy. Rawr!

    Sorry boss, I already decided to stop (though sometimes it's fun to talk about a topic). Just wanted to clarify what hers was and what the holes are and what the double hole is lol. I'm sure if she didn't want the comments she could state it.

    lmao. I thought this picture was photoshopped cause the middle gap almost looks like some sort of heart wand.

    but congrats, OP! That's definitely something to be proud of.

    First of all, I am the last person to insult anyone on this great supporting website!! I only expressed my opinion!! And excuse me for being a non-native-English-speaker and maybe not being able to get across what I meant!

    I didn't meant this to be about health!! To me those legs on that particular picture look like legs from a girl with an eating disorder or at least some sort of muddled healthy selfdepiction -> therefore "sickly"
    I didn't want to open up a discussion about health or eating disorders on a victory thread of a friend of mine!

    And please take a cookie joke, geez!!

    What does that have to do with non-native-engish-speaker? If you go up to anyone and tell them what they have is sickly, I'm pretty sure they won't look happy about it. While I don't appreciate it when people say insulting things about others appearances that they cannot change, I'm not easily offended. I more said it for the rest of the population who happen to have it who do eat. I'm not going to argue with the picture. Or the cookie. I'd love a cookie.

    And by the tone that I'm making up in my head you got rather upset at my message, and probably thought it was in a rather bad tone as well, which I hadn't really thought about. I was more just stating a statement, not getting mad at you about it, sorry if you took it that way! The last part was a joke ;) I am perhaps hard to read on the internet :P

    ^this! thank you :flowerforyou:

    now cool it kids, we are all built differently, I was feeling sexy for said triangle reasons, so I shared. I fully acknowledge that it may not be attainable to everyone but SO WHAT. I will never have petite tiny feet or a small skijump nose either... LOL

    :wink: *hands over cookie*
    I'm sorry... I think you're right! I probably took it with the wrong tone... And my answer on that tone was also probably TOM having a word in it, too! My statement, my opinion. Your statement, your opinion. Victory for Shayne on her awesome sexy triangle!! :drinker:
