ok, i just couldn't leave this.
you know, ai-chan''s pretty much skinny, like other (japanese) celebs.
what do you guys think about it?

i mean, i'm pretty much normal....but when i see ayumi or ai or boa or kuu, i think like ' omg that's beautifull and stuff.' but at the other side, i know i should follow this flow. beyoncé curves are beautifull, but beyoncé IS beautifull.....
sometimes i just kinda hate myself for not being skinny Mad XD

thats just normal japanese weight. do to healthier diets than westerners, they are often thinner.
of course an increasing western-sih diet is increasing the number of fat people.

i agree with u midori...
beyonce is beautiful...
skinny is something which shown to be the perfect thing...

but i think curves are so much better...
body is curvy... the reason by the skeleton is covered up... so that it may look curvy! Tongue

I think skinny is just over-rated

actually more than the whole skinny vs curvy debate...

its really about feeling comfortable in one's own skin... one should not be forced to look a certain way...
as long as one is healthy and is happy with one's own way of life... its just fine ^_^

be normal... thats the key thing Nod

I dont know。

being naturally skinny looks beter on a person in my opinion.
curvy people are good to cuz we got....zing (≧▽≦)

though, im only 125 lbs, but thats because im 161cm so, im not skinny, im about 2pounds over weight, which ive fierecely been exercising to get rid of.

im 124lbs, just one more pound off and i can eat Mcdonalds again. and then work off the calories later.

I would think the same thing too. You guys worry too much about your weight. Just keep in shape. Skinny or curvy? I really can't choose since I'm none of that.

P.S. I'm kinda light, I'm only like 54kg. Laughing

I just think it's important to be at a healthy weight for you personally. For some people, being thin is healthy and natural, but for some it's not. As long as you're in shape, you're fine. People are much more attractive if they're comfortable with the way they look. I know plenty of people who aren't skinny, but they're a size that's healthy for them- they have great personalities and they don't worry about the fact that they're not thin...and I think that makes them beautiful.

True. Sometimes being skinny can cause a bit of health problems. It's good to stay as who you are and just a healthy body. That's what you need. Skinny body is ok but a healthy body is more important. Nod

hm...well if you girls wouldn't watch so many movies or look at ads or expose yourself to pop culture...you wouldn't think you're fat.
anyway i do not think it is so important to worry about weight. a lot fo times it depends on what kind of body you have. like many asians have absurd metabolisms so we could be eating entire herds of animals and still not get any fatter. (i for one, am still grossly skinny despite eating more than most of my other friends every meal)
especially for tatsuka ito...i do not think a difference of two pounds makes any visible difference in your appearance. i can't even tell you my weight so exactly. i guess it is somewhere in a five pound range and that is good enough for me. however it is bad you want to eat at mcdonalds so much but this might go a bit off-topic so i'll stop here. *cough*fast food is bad!*cough*

There is no such debate as skinny vs. curves. It's purely judged by someone's perception. If you think you're beautiful, good. If you think you're ugly, change your attitude or change your body.

It just gets so tiring. Everyday you see curvy/fat/overweight people complaining that the media makes them feel bad, and anorexic/skinny/slender girls calling fat people ugly.

How much does someone's physical appearance really matter when it comes down to things at the end of the day? Sure, we're attracted to a person physically first, but do we stay with and care for people more because they're beautiful and skinny? Or do we hang around the people who care about us and have a great personality?

I don't think it matters what size you are, as long as you are healthy and happy. There's too much emphasis in this world on looks and trying to fit a certain image. If we all fit this image and looked the same, it'd be a boring world.

That being said, we're human and we all deal with the same pressures. It's easy to say how we should and shouldn't feel, but when it comes down to it, we do judge ourselves and others based on some kind of unwritten standards, even if it's only on the slightest unconscious level.

It's not easy to change how you think, but you can change your attitude towards others. Maybe if we all made a conscious effort to look beyond the physical a little more, our lives and this world would be a whole lot better.

I don't think too much about food or to be skinny and it's sad to see ppl have problems with it.
I like skinny bodies like aichin's and japanese gurls...
but I like curves too Embarassed
I think my body is nice... it's not skinny but neither fatty Tongue
Sometime I want to go on a diet... but I'm always too lazy to do it and I've never been on a real diet Confused
I'm vegetarian but I eat biscuits, cakes, candies, chocolate and other things like it.
Most of italian girls aren't really skinny coz italian food is good and pasta makes u put weigth Tongue
