OP’s ankles definitely have less circumference than her calves, thus no cankles. Some people have ankles that almost look swollen or bloated and that contributes to the cankle look. OP may be a little overweight and has short legs, but she doesn’t have cankles. |
Agreed. |

+3 you would know if you had cankles! It's pretty obvious. And, if you really did, your friend would not say this to you. She/he was messing with you. |
| Not cankles, just fat legs. |
| Isn't life tough enough. Drop the "friend". Maybe she/he is jealous of you + trying to get in your head. |
| OP, there are people on DCUM who will take any opportunity to call someone or a part of their body fat. |
I am at my thinnest actually. |
| No, you don't--you still have defined ankle. Your friend is a jerk. |
can·kle /ˈkaNGkəl/ Learn to pronounce nounINFORMAL an unusually thick or stout ankle. Op has cankles. |
| Your friend is as ass. Please don't worry about your ankles. |
It was someone I dated. He has always been honest and blunt but I wasn't sure what cankles were. I diet strictly and lift weights and have been doing so for years and my legs always looked the same. |
| I'm 5'4'' and 115 and have thick ankles. It's not about weight or fitness. I try not to focus on it. It makes shopping for summer shoes hard. |
Why is he tearing you down? Why are you letting him tear you down? You are upset over your *ankles*! I think you have too much time on your hands and you should probably stop k*cking this guy. He's not your friend. |
