It's like they've never seen women's bodies in real life before. If Taylor fucking Swift isn't considered skinny, then I guess the rest of womanhood can go yeet ourselves off of cliffs. She's practically underweight and it still isn't skinny enough.

Plenty of VS models have oomph tho.

I've been 125 at 5'9", that was my weight after I recovered from disordered eating and until my husband asked me to bulk, so from 20 years old to about 48. Nobody really commented that I was too thin (except husband), I looked slender not skinny skinny, was in shape, worked out. More cardio less weights.

90 lb when having trouble from 16 to 20 - that looked skinny and surely wasn't healthy but I still got my period.

150 now since gaining - aimed for 145, overshot. Still aiming for 145 finally making progress, slowly. People STILL think I am thin. I am not. This is more than I weighed 9 months pregnant and honestly it freaks me out a little. Doctor says it's a healthy weight still though.

ETA - 125 at 5'9" is barely even underweight by BMI. 128 lands in Normal territory.

Yeah I've been 5'3" and 115lbs. I was really unhealthy, underfed, and thin.

It's bonkers that there is so much support in here for people saying shit like Taylor Swift isn't skinny.

I think it's a cultural thing, some places people just have lower BMI's genetically or dietarily (is that a word?).

I'm considered skinny at 6'4 130lbs, but all of my friends who are all a little underweight or "barely healthy" according to BMI wouldn't, they'd just be considered thin, since the median weight is much lower than in, say, the US.

Consider the camera angles here as well. The camera is shooting from slightly below which puts emphasis on her thighs and hips with the slight lens distortion.

She’s definitely bigger than the majority of the women at my work, and they’re about normal weight. I’d put her at around a BMI of 25 or 174.5 lbs

This is insane of you.
