No, I don't think she was saying that at all. However, in the Twiggy hayday, people glorified her thinness. However, not everyone is made to be that thin.

I've seen you, and yes, you're normal for your height. However, for someone who is about 5'8''- 5'10, the weight ratio is anywhere from 140-160. And muscle mass and bone structure is included in that.

But look at Lara Flynn Boyle. She weighs the same as you and is much taller than you are. That's not healthy.

I think what she's trying to say is instead of people glorifying unrealists weight ranges (not everyone can be or should be 95 pounds), what people should be glorifying are people who are healthy looking, not matter what they weigh.

Don't let those girls get to you. Some are so self-conscious that they have to make themselves come out perfect looking and everyone else is "sickly".

My roommate was 5'2" and 95 lbs. She was petite and thin and healthy. She could eat whatever she wanted. When my cousin was anorexic, she was about 5'5" and 87 lbs. She was terribly ill.

Anorexia is a very serious disease that can lead to death. It isn't just about weight. There are serious underlying emotional/psychological issues that need to be dealt with as a part of treatment. My cousin had years of therapy and is well now, but it was a struggle for her.

Be nice!

:( But I was being serious.

Someone is definately jumping to conclusions. I'm not much bigger than you, and that's not what I was trying to say. Lady Pi Phi hit the nail on the head with her post. We shouldn't glorify people who are 5'10" and weigh 105 lbs. No where in my post did I even mention the unattractiveness of skinny people. And I never said teeny tiny people are "sick." Sometimes it helps to reread a post before you make yourself look silly. :rolleyes:

Oh, I've got plenty of love to give, stud. You just have to earn it... :)

Can I just inherit it instead?

-Rudey

You wish, but I am keeping my trust fund all to myself. Sorry!

I'm an investment banker. Worship me.

-Rudey
--Please? :)

Well, if you're an investment banker, I'm pretty sure you probably already worship yourself enough for the both of us! :)

:( <--I hurt because of you.

OH SNAP

OH SNAP

Tell me to quit tomorrow and go to med school and I will Rob. Tell me. Tell me now.

-Rudey
--I want to touch the genitals of sick men!

oh.


snap?



-RC
--Rob and Rudestar start med school together . . . it would be sick, can you imagine us at a bar telling girls we're med students? El oh El

This is so gross it's funny! :p

This is what I say buddy. You and I go to one of those med schools in the carribean. We work on our tans (by tans I mean $2 prostitutes that work the foreigners) and drink that messed up carribean liquor (by liquor I mean the ganja). We come back to the good old U.S. (of A.) and get raunchy with these American ladies (by ladies I mean 16 year olds because my body will have become accustomed to the beauty of the youth of those carribean prostitutes).

--And at bars I like to tell the girls I have an asian fetish...that is all.

Oh, you know I think you're a cool kid. I wouldn't even waste my time typing if I didn't.

It's amazing that some celebrities look taller or say that they are taller than what some sources say. For example, Lindsay Lohan doesn't look 5'5". She looks like she's 5'7". I saw Lindsay Lohan standing next to a Eva Mendes who is 5'6". Lindsay looks like she at least an inch taller than Eva. So there's no way that she's 5'5".

I mean if you were, say, 5'1", would you claim that you are 5'2" no matter what people say?
