People shouldn't post stuff like that either. But when I try to interject there people jump down my damn throat with the "but shaming people makes them want to lose weight." or something similar or just blatant disgust and rudeness. Then they vomit up the same tired garbage about how "it's never impossible to lose weight" as if that makes it ok to be a douche to people. But notice how when I come to defend skinny girls I get overwhelming support. Shit I'm pretty sure I got a star because of this post. Interesting how that works, isn't it?
i have a thigh gap because i have wider hips and most of the flesh on my legs is on the outside of my thighs. i don't diet or exercise beyond playing on my soccer team and i have much skinnier friends who don't have thigh gaps. it all just depends on your body, not really a measure of health.
Thigh gap is based on the width of your hips, not necessarily how much you eat. Yes, someone with the hip structure to have a thigh gap may not have one because they aren't thin enough for it, but having one doesn't mean you don't eat either.
Okay so I'm really I came across this because the other day my friend told me that people actually obsess over this. Me on the other hand didn't know that I hold this much power over lack of fat on my thighs? No. Honey you are beautiful just the way you are. Trust me, don't torture yourself for this... it's not worth it. Because in the end you're not supposed to change yourself for others but just for yourself [ I really wish someone had told me this a long time ago though :/]
I have a gap, and it's not just because of lack of eating. I swear I have the appetite of a horse but I have a gap because I excersise. I do horseback riding and that uses so much thigh muscles. My thighs have a gap bc they're all muscley :) that's not everyone's case but lack of food isn't everyones case either :)
Yes ! Exactly the same for me ! I eat so much (but healthy) and then I do basketball and horse riding (a lot) so I have a thigh gap, I'm not starving myself for anything, and I don't have a choice over if I have a thigh gap or not, I don't wake up in the morning and think: I'm gonna work on my thigh gap today.
I do horseback riding and cross-country, so my legs are muscular, but I also have narrow hips. I don't have a thigh gap, but that's okay because I know I have more leg power than half the girls in my school. Really, it's all based on how your body is put together. If you have wider hips, you're more likely to have a thigh gap than a person with narrow hips, even if you do eat a lot.
These comments are overpowering. They make me feel better about not having a thigh gap because sometimes it feels like society is pushing it. I am feeling way more confident!
Okay I'm sorry but this pertains to me directly. I'm quite thin and happen to eat a lot!Jeez I've been trying to gain weight for the last two years just so I can give blood. yes I do have a 'thigh gap' but who cares, it doesn't indicate anything to do with my health. And no I am not anorexic or anything like that, I happen to have a perfectly normal BMI thank you very much. Personally I feel it is wrong to judge how attractive someone is by the small space between their thighs. So there's my two cents, over and out.
People seem to associate thigh gaps with forced weight loss and I want to know why? My best friend dances for 2 hours 4 times a week and does taeKwan do (idk how to spell it) twice a week and teaches a class too. She does so much activity that she has a thigh gap. Is her health 'disgusting'? I swear, sometimes girls just can't win with our appearances...
Weight isn't always an indicator of health, people seem to think you can tell whether a person is gonna live past 40 based on how they look. Now if a person looks like a walking skeleton or is 400 pounds you can pretty safely assume there are some health issues there, but a girl like the one in the picture could be perfectly healthy and eat plenty just as a person who people see as fat could be perfectly healthy and not over eat. But at the same time a girl like this could eat nothing but processed garbage and be unhealthy (I knew a girl like that in HS) even though she is thin. We need to stop passing harsh judgement based on knee-jerk reactions to how a person looks, we need to accept that we can't know a person until we GET TO KNOW THEM.
Well this is not very true because i have this gap (i dont know how i get it but ok) and today i ate a few hot dogs pancakes whole chocolat and two pizzas and today was my normal day :D so you can have this gapwithout being hungry
