[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Too bony for my taste. She needs to gain 10-15 pounds and round out a bit, she is not at a healthy weight at first glance, and people like that generally have problems as they get older because of it.[/quote] You know, she looks like she has a higher body fat ratio than those women on my mom's island that live well into their hundreds and are considered some of the healthiest people in the world. Perhaps our view in America is skewed as to what a healthy weight is. We are bombarded with images of incredibly fat and obese people, where overweight is considered "healthy" or "average", or on the flip side skinny movie stars with cosmetically enhanced boobs, butts, cheeks and lips that give a completely wrong view as to what healthy skinny looks like. I bet if Kate had breast implants you would not be posting this and would think she looked just fine.[/quote] Uh...you can't compare a middle aged woman to a woman in her 90's. Elderly people are known for having a hard time holding onto weight. And to be quite frank, if our view of woman in America is skewed it's that normal woman are fat. Not that fat = normal as you suggested. So the fact that people are seeing a thin woman and saying she needs to GAIN weight is saying something in and of itself. And no I'm not basing anything I said on her breasts, I personally hate fake boobs but that was a strange argument to try and put in there. Being underweight is unhealthy, there are a number of studies that have shown this. It becomes even more problematic as you get older and find it harder to gain weight.[/quote]
