I'm all for petite, don't get me wrong, but the thought of a girl who'd snap if I hugged her, who I could break in half just by smiling at, kinda doesn't appeal. I like curves, I like a womanly shape, whilst petite is good now and again, nothing is more attractive then someone with an hourglass figure. 34, 28, 32. sweatdrop
Guess that came out kinda derogatory. In all honesty, figure, size, doesn't bother me. I wasn't brought up that way. Its about the person, you can have skinny girls that look like a dogs arse, and larger girls that look stunningly beautiful (like my missus). Size doesn't matter, but that doesn't mean looks don't too, I'd never date someone I didn't find physically attractive, sounds cruel and callous and your all gonna make with the 'its whats on the inside that counts'. But when it comes down to it, looks are a factor, I don't want the girl I'm with to be upset because I think another womans attractive, its not fair on her, its not going to make her feel good... but I digress... whats the topic again?
Size Zero?
Well if girls want to starve themselves to death, because cosmopolitan says they should, so be it. One less moron in the world. Sorry that sounded cold and callous and bitter, but deep down, I know alot of people think the same, even if only a passing thought.
Well I guess in clear terms... Size Zero = not good Petite = Sometimes good Shape = TEH PWNAGE!

CrimsonThanatos Isobel Bellamy There used to be an anorexic girl that jogged around my village. All she is known as is the 'anorexic girl' and she's instantly known, to much "I can't see why she won't just eat, she looks horrible". While true, it depresses me that such disorders are derided, not tried to be understood. On the subject of the girl: we haven't seen her recently. Just remember what lysee said, it's a disorder. 8/ Uh, I know this, read more closely^

What kills me most is seeing those women who are so skinny and malnourished that they look grey. It takes pretty advanced starvation to get to that point, yet I see it almost every time I crack open a fashion magazine.
I've had my own personal battle with an eating disorder... not because I wanted to look trendy or beautiful, but because I spent a few months without enough money for groceries. It taught me how deceptive anorexia can be. After a week of eating next to nothing, you honestly don't feel hungry anymore. If your diet doesn't improve, you'll gradually get weaker and more susceptible to viruses. Even a mild strain of the common cold will be enough to knock you flat for a week. Your hair falls out, your fingernails get brittle, you feel cold all the time and you get a chronic case of dandruff that even Denorex can't fix. These are classic symptoms of malnutrition. But even if you know that, it doesn't occur to you that that's what you've got. How can you be starving if you're not hungy?
It took me a long time to realise I was in trouble. It came as a shock, because people were constantly complementing me on how 'svelte' and 'healthy' I looked. But one day a doctor's scale told me I was 98 lbs, and I knew that was Way Too Thin.
And let me tell you, it is hard to start eating again. At first, normal food will make you feel sick because it's too rich for your stomach to handle.
Getting anorexic for reasons beyond your control is bad enough, but it seems to me that doing it intentionally is even more tragic. The media and the fashion industry have a lot to answer for if young women these days think they need to risk death to be pretty.

I hear this big time. I'm wierd, I have a weird body type. I'm five foot 10 inches tall, and my measurements are perfect. 36, 24, 36. I would happily wear a size 4 to 7 in juniors, but most are too short for me. so size 8 us in womens. bigger if I feel like being wonderfully comfortable.
I'm proud of my body. I'm thin yes, but not skeletal thin. thin, like I work my buttox off, literally, with exercise so I'm thin because I've actually got muscle and you can see my ribs only because my skin is kind of transparent because I'm so pale, you can see my bones in some places and see my veins and stuff, well, except for in my face and shoulders. kinda creepy, no?
oh well, off the subject....

Wow... you have a perfect hourglass figure.
I'd ask to draw you, but you'd probably think it creepy.
