Am I too skinny to be found attractive?

hey, don't feel to bad i'm in the same boat. i'm 6" 145lbs and there aint noth'n wrong with being skinny , i went through the same shit in high school, at family reunions, and what not. oh your so skinny you need to eat more, oh this or that, i don't care what most of them think anymore, it might just be that you have a high metabalism and your body burns up food faster than other people, i like skinny/fit guys, i never cared for all the guys at the gym that can bench 400lbs and have huge muscles thats more of a turn off for me.

 

Hehe, I'm 6' and 130-135 lbs. I'm not deformed. >.> Tell them to shut up. xD I eat like a hummingbird. Dr. Pepper is my 3 meals a day.

 

Ooh, they are. ^^ But skinny, catlike people are sexy too :3

 

I'm dreadfully skinny. I am 5 foot 5 and I weigh 114 pounds. I have friends who envy my body type. It has nothing to do with dieting or exercising (I'm trying to build muscle in my arms for sports) but I just have this high metabolism.

People have told me that they think I'm anorexic because of how skinny I am. At least until I show them my 'guns', my arm muscles, then they shut up. I eat more than most of my guy friends.

As for not being attractive, personally, I find a guy who has lean muscle more sexy than a guy who is a steroid monster. Tall and skinny is pretty hot in my book.

 

That's what I was thinking. But then again, the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence, isn't it? Be comfortable with who you are and how you look, and tell people that you appreciate their concern but that you're fine the way you are.

 

Well I'm 160 cm tall and I weigh 47 kilos. I think I am too skinny but the school doctor says I am in the median range for my age. He says I am on the small and light side, but fine for someone between 13 and 14, so I shouldn't worry about it. I don't know if this helps. :icon_bigg

 

Lol, I'm only 52 KGs and 170cm++.

 

No one is too ANYTHING to be attractive.

My thought is this. There's probably 1-2% of people out there who qualify as "attractive". As in, you might see them in a magazine advertisement. The rest of us are just kinda normal. Our hair looks weird, or we're kinda fat, or our smile is odd. Whatever.

That doesn't mean that us normal people are doomed to be alone. It just means it's less likely that someone's going to fall in love with us from across a crowded room. Which means we've gotta do things the hard way. We gotta get out there, we gotta meet people, we gotta find someone we click with, and we gotta start building relationships. Yeah, it's harder, but totally worth it.

I am way more attracted to smaller guys than bigger guys. The question is, if you disregard everything your friends have told you, are you happy with yourself being thin?

To be honest, most people make fun of skinnier people because they are jealous (usually because they have a few more pounds than they want).

I've been called skinny when I weighed 160lbs... O_O. I think calling someone skinny is just a mean way of calling them, 'Not Fat'.

 

I agree wit Lex, and would point out that even the "attractive" people are airbrushed or photo shopped to take care of their blemishes.

 

If you're a girl it's OK to be small and light, but if you're a boy it's better to be big and heavy. I got pushed around a lot when i changed schools, and people still usually think I'm younger than I am. It sux - so give me big and heavy any day. :dry:
