[quote=Anonymous]OP, I used to be able to relate. I'm now in a more "normal" weight range, but when I was in my 20s, I was thinner, and people sometimes said, Oh, you're so slender, etc. Now, "slender" at least sounds more kind than "skinny," at least to me, but I wasn't ever flattered by it. The reason I look particularly "thin," and still do up top, is because I'm very flat chested; so, that made all of me look thin (even though I have hips). Anyway, I agree with you and others there is a messed up relationship between weight and body image in this culture. I wish you the best and hope everything turns out well for you.[/quote]
