[quote=Anonymous]As for the language fights…I think “skinny” means something different today than it did in the 1980s/1990s. Growing up, “skinny” meant “very thin,” perhaps painfully so. I’m an elder millennial who is smaller then the average American woman. I would never consider myself thin or skinny— I grew up with Kate Moss and the heroine chic look. But I’ve seen so many people with my general body type called “skinny” in the past 5 years. It’s neither a good thing or a bad thing but “back in my day,” I never ever would’ve been considered skinny! [/quote]
