well princess jass i'm sorry to hear about your ED girl! :(
i'm just feeling the financial effects of tons of dental work due to bulimia so i totally sympathize.
the thing is though that because you're shorter and have bigger boobs its going to be different to men when you're super thin then the tall a-cup "model" type. like i def think more men would find a more petite, curvy woman like you as their type but the super thin type has to have height too. like i know a lot of clubs i get invited to are 5'8 and over so i can't even bring most of my friends.
like i just feel everyone has their type and we shouldn't hate on the skinny type either.

Weight is not subjective it is objective this from the CDC.
BMI Weight Status
Below 18.5 Underweight
18.5 – 24.9 Normal
25.0 – 29.9 Overweight
30.0 and Above Obese
To calculate BMI go to.
FYI my BMI at this point in time is 25.3 and people think I'm thin; this shows how fat we have become.
4'10" 98lbs normal. BMI 19.2
4'10" 105lbs normal. BMI 21.9
5'6" 120lbs normal. BMI 19.4
5'6" 140lbs normal. BMI 22.6
5'6" 160lbs overweight. BMI 25.8
5'7" 115lbs underweight. BMI 18
5'7" 120lbs normal. BMI 18.8
5'7" 130lbs normal. BMI 20.4
5'7" 150lbs normal. BMI 23.5
5'10" 125lbs underweight. BMI 17.9
5'10" 140lbs normal. BMI 20.1

bmi doesn't reflect bodyfat very well. bodyfat is the real problem, but in this effed-up culture you can be skinny, have 35% or 40% bodyfat and be considered attractive simply because of the skinny (nevermind that it is all gross and unhealthy and sickly).
i hope that someday the mainstream culture considers HEALTHY attractive, rather than simply v. skinny.
eta: at even high bodyfat percentages, you can have a 'normal' or even 'underweight' bmi.

bmi doesn't reflect bodyfat very well. bodyfat is the real problem,
That is so true; Mike Tyson at his prime had a BMI 31.6, obese. Of course he was solid muscle and not obese. BMI is a quick easy way to gauge if one is at a healthy weight. Few people are as solid as a professional athlete or thin and inactive.
To get a body fat percent is more difficult; to get an exact percent requires being immersed in water.

people on primal/paleo diets have the same 'solidness' problem that some athletes can have. they post very low bodyfat, but their bmi is still higher than one would expect. bmi is quick and dirty, and certainly plenty of americans are high bodyfat and overweight or obese bmi. but a substantial fraction are skinny-fat as well, and bmi says they're ok (healthy) when they are not.

your average runway model or hollywood actress is skinny-fat.
linda hamilton in terminator 2-- not skinny-fat
cameron diaz in charlie's angels-- skinny-fat
certain kinds of athletic folks can be skinny-fat too. this actually happens to a fair number of runners of either gender-- they get down to skin, bone and fat. they literally run away all their muscle mass. but wow can they stay thin, of course...

Cheap way is to buy a Tanita scale that will measure your body fat % as well as your weight. However, these are notoriously inaccurate.
You can also buy a caliper set. You measure certain areas of the body by grasping a fold of skin (like the old "can you pinch an inch" cereal commercials) and measuring. If done correctly, it's more accurate than the scale.
Expensive way is to go to a clinic that immerses you in water to determine your body composition by displacement. Most accurate but not practical for every day use... ;D

I like petite girls with a small thin waist, but also nice curvy breasts and butt. I don't think this can be accomplished with anorexia, because the entire body gets flat and skinny. I think only healthy women who exercise can have the type of body I prefer.
Two examples: Tila Tequila and Pamela Anderson (in her heyday).

both of whom are skinny-fat. you can tell by the lack of muscle definition (i.e., lack of muscle). it's especially obvious on ms. tequila, who ironically lacks the waist-hip ratio you claim to prefer (she does not have the hourglass .7 or lower ratio that signals both curvy boobs and curvy butt-- she is square-waisted).
since what you like on women usually corresponds to fat, a woman can still have very unhealthy body fat levels and be of a type you like.
which is why it is an uphill battle to get people to recognise what healthy or even muscular looks like. you think ladies who very obviously aren't healthy in build must be 'curvy' because they are thin with large fake b00bs.
plus some women have larger hips and/or weight distributions that favor boobs/ass and will always be pretty close to curvy even if they weigh almost nothing (i have been anorectic and weighed ~90lbs and still had curves). there are women who simply cannot lose much boob-fat until they are very low in relative weight, and others who have the same trouble with their butts, or their thighs, etc.

Actually only women with wide pelvic bones and plastic surgery (lipo, breast implants, and butt implants) can have the body type you prefer. I am sick of men thinking that curvy (but ONLY in the butt and boobs) with a tiny waist is obtainable. its impossible for the vast majority of women. Healthy women who exercise are likely to have muscular bellies (thus not 22 inch waists) and small boobs and butts because of low body fat.

No it isn't. I have that body type and know many other women who do as well (take a look at a lot of the pics on here)...and while I do have implants I had natural C cups before, they just got a bit deflated after an illness which caused weight gain then loss, so I got smallish implants to repair them. I have wide hipbones, a very flat stomach and a bubble butt, with widish shoulders for my size. I'm a very pronounced hourglass and have been since I was around 10-11.
BTW - Before you start my bodyfat is fairly low and always has been (it was low enough to stop my periods for a number of years). I'm a workout nut. My ass is a tight bubble butt, my stomach is flat, but yes, never quiet becomes concave because I have nice defined muscles most of the time (I have trouble getting a 6-pack but have those nice verticle lines). My ribcage is much wider than my waist, so even with very low bodyfat I still have a nice )( shape. Now serious, stop with the judgmental jealousy. You are just making yourself look bad.

What is your obsession with knocking girls who have had plastic surgery? Get a hobby!
Guess what, my measurements were 34-23-34 BEFORE SURGERY. I have washboard abs too. Sounds like it's obtainable to me. ::)

Uh...no. There are plenty of women who naturally have hourglass shapes. Most of the women on my mother's side of the family have little waists and curvy butts and boobs. And you can have muscular belly and a small waist line too. I have great ab definition, do a lot of core focused workouts, and I'm a 24 inch waist.

So this might seem a little cheesy but speaking as a man, I don't care so much what the lady looks like - beauty comes from within - thin or not so thin. Keeping yourself in shape and at a healthy weight is great and being good to yourself.
I keep myself in shape because you guys do too (seems kind of impolite and inconsiderate not to since you go to so much trouble), but I wouldn't wish anyone to become unhealthily thin - it just isn't worth it.

LOL... Some men like women tall and skinny, I like them short with tiny waist, big boobs and nice round ass... Maybe, its not just exercising that made them that way... Okay, some enhancements might have played a role... But, I like...

i can tell by your photo that you do not have that body type lol. maybe you should change your default photo before you start claiming on a public forum that your body fat is very low. most people would be too polite to call you out on it but theyre still going to be laughing at you in their minds for saying so.

well lucky you! believe it or not the body type your mother's side has is RARE. most women do not have itty bitty waists and huge boobs and a butt. most women are proportional. i never said this body type didnt exist, i just said it is rare in nature and im sick of men thinking that its "healthy" and ideal when in most women it is unobtainable.
name one woman with a natural hourglass shape and i can name you 100 more women who DONT have that shape . its not even just about the boobs, most women dont have hips that are much wider than their waists. i agree it doesnt look great, but thats nature for you
to the person who told me to take a look on the photos on here...i have seen them..havent you? I see a lot of girls with little to no hips. I cant say much about the boobs since a lot of them are fake anyway

you don't actually have to work out constantly to maintain a nice figure with a paleo/primal diet. mostly lift heavy things a few times a week (3x MAX) and take long walks in the park or on the beach, at a conversation-ready pace. does wonders for all the body parts we are talking about here, and all without slaving in the gym for hours a week. who would have guessed eating a pre-agriculture diet gives you a lean, hard body without much exercising? it's pretty cool, and i would love to see some actresses advocating primal/paleo. right now, it is still mainly guys, because it can give them eight-packs even if they have the 'wrong' body type for that level of ab definition.

I've seen a lot of them, too.
But you should be aware that men do have those options, and from what I've read, a surprising amount of them are using them. Supposedly calves are one of the most popular implant areas for guys. And the total number of male implants/augmentations is like 30% or something (that's the figure I recall seeing anyway). Plus some of those monster dongs are not the original tool. I saw before and after shots of one of the biggest XXX stars Shane Diesel I think it was, and he definitely had some kind of penis enlargement surgery.
