the right way to see your body's weight to height ratio is to start at 5 ft and 100lbs, add 5lbs for every inch. and that weight is your healthy weight. but there's an exception, if you have a small frame you would minus 5lbs from that and if you had a large frame add 5lbs, the average weight is for someone with a medium frame.

so when i'm like 100 pounds, i have to start being careful
i hate being short
then you have to be skinnier to look normal
it's too much pressure
and since i love to eat
and eat lots of unhealthy things
it's harder
i have no self-control

If your ribcage is gigantic, we have a problem. >_> I'm not attracted to rail-thin women, they look like 12 year old boys. Curvier women have more fun parts--kekeke--and they're usually more fun and approachable. :3 All the thin women I've met in my personal experience have been very vain, and basically miserable because all they do is obsess about the size of their waist. I'm a guy, and I'm telling you--we don't care. Yes, supermodel bodies are fun to look at, but we don't expect that of our girlfriends. If you take care of yourself and your personality is awesome, we love you. That simple.
finnaly i thought all men were obsessed with stick thin girls, i am 14 and i weigh 13 stone and i am 5ft 9 so i am not stick thin i am more curvy but i have been bullied all my life for being "fat" by stick thin people but no one actually bothers to get to know me propally but if they did they would see that i am bubbly, loyal and fun to be around, i hope, thats just what my friends say! i have just been dumped because people were pressuring him and calling me fat so he chose his friends which is understandable. message back i would really like to get to know you!

Honestly, no idea... impossible to say xlbs/kgs is too light, or that size x is too small. As an example, one of my girlfriends was size 6 (or less in some shops), one size 8/10 - apart from a small height difference their bodies were near identical. So I'm totally at a loss when it comes to sizes, because to me they should have been the same... and I look at size 6/less models and think 'ugh', but on my ex it didn't look too skinny at all.
So to me, it totally depends on the person, because size makes no sense at all to me, and weight can be deceiving...

A barbie doll if it were 5'9" would have a 36 inch bust, 18 inch waist and 30 inch hips. I wonder what the measurements on a Bimbo chick would be if she were real?

I'm a UK size 6 and weigh about 50kg/110 pounds. I'd prefer to be a bit bigger because I think it's easier to find clothes and to have a shape which would be nice! I'm only 1.51m tall-not even 5ft yet and my frame is very small compared to my friends (both my parents are quite small too, must be the genes.)
I think as long as you're healthy it shouldn't matter how thin you are, all people are different and can only be the size their bodies are meant to be. I know personally if I go up to a size 8 that I've been doing less exercise and eating more junk food-dang it, it tastes so good! But also I feel more irritable, etc and feel just ill all the time-it must drive my family mad!
