Well, okay. I don't think thunder thighs have ever been out of style, especially not in 2023.

Not every woman can achieve that muscular look in her thighs. It doesn't mean we're under-eating or skinny fat. I don't care how much pasta I eat and how many squats I do, I will never have thunder thighs.

OP, what is the point of your thread? You are an average-sized woman going on and on about how people think you are soooo skinny and you will never have thunder thighs. Um, good for you?

Please get your head checked.

Being skinny has never been out of style, not even in 2023. But here you are blathering.

While I agree with this I think, in recent years, a very specific body type of body has been touted as the “ideal”. Large butt, muscular legs, tiny waist, large perky chest. This is a look a lot of “fitness” influencers will fake with plastic surgery and/or photo editing.

We, as women, are so much better than this! We are all blessed with unique bodies and we can focus on our health and appearance without comparing ourselves to random ever changing trends. Your body doesn’t need to be “on trend”, we are all better than that. OP, rock what you’ve got and stop looking for reason to feel bad about the way you look. Your body deserves more respect than that.

This “look” is only populate in lower class cultures in the US. Upper class people might have a physical relationship with this type , but in Upper class circles nobody is wifing these type of women.

I don’t know why people are so desperate to believe this myth.

-Rich & Fat

There’s always exception. Most women are not fat at my kids private school. Of course some are, but that’s not the norm.

Ah so we went from literally, in your words, “nobody,” to some portion other than the majority. Cool!

I’m not sure why you are getting so defensive. You might be fat, but you’re not dumb.

Calling you out on pushing a stupid myth isn’t defensive. Lots and lots of rich women are overweight and obese. I have no idea why you enjoy perpetuating this narrative. Maybe it’s because *you’re* dumb?

It’s simply a fact that wealthy people are thinner. This is not a myth and you are kidding yourself if you think wealthy status conscious successful men are looking to marry fat women. Dream on. I’m not saying it’s fair, but this is a fact of life. Fat is not attractive in UC circles. If that were desired you’d see more fat people in advertising and marketing.

Wealthy people are thinner. Also, many wealthy people are still overweight and obese. It’s a myth that they aren’t—they are less fat, but many are still fat.

Also, wealthy men are attracted to overweight and obese women. Not all of them, and probably fewer than lower income men. But it’s a myth that no rich men, or even a negligible percent of rich men, are attracted to overweight and obese women.

NP here. Also, I know many, many women who were thin when married and got fat after having kids, myself included. If you think all rich men leave a woman they love because she got fat, you would be wrong, wrong, wrong.

I had the same problem.

My senior year of high school, I finally passed the 99 pound weight to 110 pounds. I thought I looked really good. I am about 5'4".

Today I'm in my early 50s. I'm still 5'4". I weigh 130. I'm also a 32D bra size. I'm not really "skinny."

cool story mee-maw, tell us more about the olden days!
