fat thighs, wide hips, big bottoms, big boobs… they all are attributes of female beauty to many male admirers. just be who and how you are, at any shape and weight.

I’m sad you feel this way! My thighs are large, and keep getting larger. I guess I have more issues with my gut and back fat than I do with my thighs. It’s all so exhausting, isn’t it? Hating yourself? I don’t know what to say, Sister. I think your body looks trim, healthy, and pretty bad ass.

You are one of my favorite people, Sister, yet whenever I hear people with trim, healthy, bad ass physiques bemoan their appearance, I get a case of the stabbies. I think, “Wow…if you are disgusting, then I might as well be lined up in front of a firing squad right now. Take me out. I’m a danger to humanity with my overgrown adipose cells.” There have been times when I’ve said this to friends who weigh at least 30% less than I do. Usually their response is, “OH NO! I don’t mean YOU! You’re so beautiful! Your thighs are perfect!! It’s just ME!”

Yeah, right. UGH. It’s annoying!!!

You are a fucking fox. I’m sorry that somehow it got into your head that your thighs had to be a certain circumference (sp?) in order to look pretty. And do men worry about their thighs? NO. This is a problem of patriarchal society and the “beauty” industry. They set an impossible standard as an ideal because it gives people something to reach for, something to keep throwing their money at. “THESE are beautiful thighs, thighs that will bring you fulfillment.” Even if you don’t shell out the $100 for their fancy, sea harvested, organic, molecularly re-engineered and biophazed cream (endorsed by a heavily photoshopped celebrity du jour), you walk away wanting what they’re selling: those thighs.

Godammit, I’m mad. Love you, Sister. Happy to trade thigh circumference with you any day of the week. xx

My favorite thing in the world regarding ‘chubby thighs’:

The exact moment I realised I had thunder thighs was sitting on the floor in grade 6 next to my two friends. It was like goldilocks. One was too thin and bony, the middle one was ‘normal’, nicely shaped and didn’t squish, and then there were mine, jiggles and doubles in size when I sit. I also have stout lower body with cankles. I would be less self conscious of my legs if I didn’t have calves the size of my thighs.

Sigh. Genetics.

This is how I feel about my waist. I have a little bit of thigh fat, but I literally bloat after I eat anything, and I cannot lose weight off my waist. I will never have abs. I feel like EVERY girl has a thinner waist than I do and I hate having sex from certain positions because all I can think about is my stomach fat.

Hammie, I’m 44 and my thighs still don’t touch. I can’t help it. I was made that way. Even having four kids hasn’t helped. I’m sorry my thighs don’t touch, I just hope I won’t be crippled with osteoporosis one day. Don’t assume women with naturally thin legs fucking well have eating disorders or exercise too much.

I’d kill to be as thin as you and you do not have fat thighs. But I hear you … I wish I could have an eye tuck and the fact sucked out of my double chin and my friends tell me I’m crazy. I hate summer because I too, will not wear shorts in public. I’m white and fat and sweaty all summer long and I can’t wait for fall to fucken get here cause I look sooooo much better. I can cover my fat self up with sleeves and pants and turtle necks. *sigh* isn’t it terrible the crap we do to ourselves with all this self degradation …

YOU ARE COOL LOOKING AND HIP AND HAVE LONG BEAUTIFUL HAIR AND NO … YOU DO NOT HAVE FAT THIGHS.

smooches!

“Suspended” has the healthiest attitude to all body focus/health/fash mags that make us hate ourselves. He just put the mag down and never looked back. Nice one.

here, if it makes you feel any better: I’m 5’4″ and a size 12. I’m not sure what I weigh, but since I just at a bunch of old easter chocolate and am on my second glass of wine, I’m sure it’s going to be more tomorrow. Last year at this time I was a size 8. I seriously doubt I’m ever going to see that again, because I’m 43 and too exhausted to exercise that much again.

Your poor, beautiful, young self, killed by your ex-husband. that’s what they do, isn’t it? mine is doing it, slowly. I’m letting him, because we have three young children, and I can’t bear to leave them.

Please take care of yourself. We who cannot speak like you do need you.

I hate my thighs too. I don’t really remember how it started, but I do remember being about 10 and already thinking my thighs and ass were unacceptably fat (I have never been fat, but I have a latina body: small waist, wide hips). I don’t wear shorts as a principle, and out of courtesy to people with eyes. The thing that I find extremely weird and beyond comprehension is that every single man I have ever gotten naked with (and some with which I haven’t!) has enthusiastically expressed admiration for them, without knowing of my “trauma”. It’s a mystery to me, I just hope that my fear of getting fatter thighs/ass keeps me motivated enough to work out until I am too old to care.
