On a seperate issue, this tendency of women to label any thin woman as anorexic is beyond contempt. You'd swear there were no naturally thin people in the world. Anorexia is a term that's bandied about far far too easily these days. Some women are "bony". That's life. Same as some men are. But do they get labelled as anorexic because they are so thin? No, it's just brushed off as them just being naturally thin.

There are naturally thin people out there obviously, but to be fair, an awful lot of women in the media are unhealthily thin, and a higher proportion *ARE* anorexic. Having said that, I myself was very thin a few years back and when some of the guys in my class started a rumour that I was anorexic, I was very angry about it.


About curvy girls: Girls who are not stick-thin, but are still fairly thin and have bigger bums and breasts. Usually. That seems to be the general opinion I've come across.

Curvy celebrities - Women who actually need a bra.



EDIT: Also, about those 5 models in that link... none of them are "curvy" they're all wearing push up bras. Which I actually think looks horrible, it's so unnatural looking! Admittedly though, they all have great legs.

Nightwish: A size 8 on top? That is NOT fat!!! I'd hate to think what some people would think of me then, I'm a 12, 12-14 on top (I'm 5'9)

i always thought that the the term "skinny or slim" meant girls that are skinny and weigh little, (big boobs or no big boobs !)
and the word "curvy" meant a figure that has an average amount of weight regarldless of boob size or ass size !

and "fat" is obviously overweight people!
i would call myself curvy, because i am not skinny nor am i any way fat ! but that doesnt mean ive a big ass or big boobs

Curvy is when you have Curves!
Y'know, a small waist hips that are visible and stuff that gives you shape, why do people always give the word "curves" a negative side??
Curves are lovely...every woman has them some are just less obvious.

I know his haircut and fake-tan suggest otherwise but I reckon Gavin Henson is straight.

Why is it that we've had a gazillion and a half threads like this ? We're always asking what constitutes a "curvy" or slim woman. Everyone is different so what's curvy to me may be not be to someone else. It only strengthens womens insecurities and make them want to change the way they look or feel depressed about what they do/don't have. Women and men constantly compare women to each other and in turn women try to live up to what some guys deem a suitable enough for their liking and it's ridiculous.

This thread could go on and on and on. It'd be like me saying "I wouldn't go for a guy who doesn't have the following:
1) a washboard stomach
2) at least 6ft in height
3) Blue eyes (could possibly be green)
4) a doctrate(sp?)
5) size 9 feet
6) a strong jaw
7) large penis
8)etc....etc...

But then another girl going "Nah, I prefer a real man with loadsa hair on his back and I don't mind about the size of his manhood or if he has a bit of a beer belly as long as he his face good looking

Then another comes along and says "I like blah-de-blah..." then another and another and so on and so forth.

According to Metro (yeah probably not the most reliable source) there are four main female body types - the rectangle, the inverted triangle, the spoon and the hourglass. The hourglass figure is what I would consider curvy - hips and boobs but a small waist. However, less than one in ten women have this figure. Most fit into the rectangular bracket - pretty much the same size the whole way down. Spoon shapes are large hipped and inverted triangles have big boobs and small hips. Anyway, the rectangle shape is what I would consider to be definitely not curvy
