All bodies are different. It is best to ask about your body, rather than someone else’s. What looks good or bad on someone else isn’t going to be the same as it is on you. Why not just take a pic in a two piece and blot out your face. You can ask anonymously, if you want privacy 😊

My ribs used to show a lot I was really self conscious about it bc people assumed I was anorexic. In retrospect I’m really annoyed I allowed it to Influence what I wore and how I related to others.

It’s like a witch hunt. People are so pleased with themselves if rust decide they found Something.. seriously did you bring about world peace with gossip and grand standing 🙄f##% off.( not you haha 😛)

Anyhow, you are pretty and most models show bones protruding- that’s the norm. You want to be a model so in those circles it should be accepted 😊

If you want to know what average people think, is just post a clear pic anonymously. Like the one you had as your back drop only standing. Is it really so different 🤷‍♀️?

If you model, you would be posing that way anyhow. 😊

I'm going for c
You're young only 16 years old you're going to fill out and your ribs are not going to show as much if any by the time you're 20 yes as long as you're not skeleton skinny those ribs are beautiful but like I said you're just 16 give yourself 2 more years see what you look like at 18 I think you will be pleasantly surprised at the beauty that's going to be coming out of you but please don't mistake a beautiful body for beauty in general for you to be truly beautiful you have to have a beautiful attitude that coupled with the beautiful body and you will be a star

No you continue to grow until you're 18 years old and sometimes even beyond that there's two things on males that never stop growing that's the ears and the nose but there's two things that continue to grow on everyone after you're dead that's fingernails and hair

To me the term super model skinny is a nice way of saying anorexic. The woman in the picture is a good example of why I think that. Because to me she looks like a skeleton with hardly any muscle on it. Things like visible ribs, stick arms and legs are a huge turn off for me. It's that I dislike skinny women. For me is specifically about women or men that look like their body fat and muscle mass is lower then it should be for their height and build.

No, but it's not unattractive either. Don't worry about it :) That's like asking if your elbow is attractive.

A visible ribcage would only be unattractive if the girl has... say anorexia for instance, because the ribcage would then highlight a scarily unhealthy lifestyle.

You wouldn’t know why someone is skinny. I was skinny and everyone assumed I didn’t eat. There’s no way of knowing by looking. She’s asking about aesthetics not psychology. 🤷‍♀️

@VIVANT I know, but I'm saying when you *can* tell by looking, because they're so emaciated. I know we're probably talking about extremes then, which was also kind of my point. There's no point in worrying about ribcages otherwise.

No you can’t tell

People can look evacuates and be completely healthy just have super fast metabolism

And someone can be starving and be a normal weight Or even fat.

Starvation is relative to what where you are coming from not where you are at.

Also does it matter if it’s anorexia or cystic fibrosis or cancer.. I mean I just do t see the point in calling people anorexic. A body either looks attractive to someone or it does not. Many people have no choice in how thin they are. adding displaced morality to it is just another challenge to face.

Sorry i dont mean to pick on you you just touched on a cultural trend I find paradoxical in its formation and approach. I wasn’t meaning to sound justice I just find it quizzical 😊

Don't tell me you can't see that there's something wrong there. I'm not calling people anorexic just because they're thin or skinny. I'm just using it as an example of cases - like the one in the pic I just linked - where the person is clearly not healthy.

I like "skinny" girls. I think the girl in @imthequeen's example is attractive.

Sure but we wouldn’t know why she’s skinny. Was my point. If she pigged out all day but had an absorption problem that wouldn’t Make it attractive. whereas most “ anorexia “ are normal weight or slightly below. Bigger than the woman in the picture. People get disguised with anorexia based on psychological profiling.

My point is a person looks the way they do despite the reason.

Most models with the body of the woman in the post are going to be considered anorexic by medical community whether they are or are not trying to harm themselves. Being attractive isn’t the same as not being anorexic ( as far as conventional usage) and being “ anorexic” doesn’t make them unattractive.

The woman in the pick you uploaded wouldn't look less thin if it turned out she just couldn’t absorb food or had a super human metabolism

I guess I’m saying, what’s wrong with saying “ its fine, unless it’s too thin”

Why add on extra guess work about presumed psychological disposition?

@VIVANT To provide a relatable example of the extreme that we'd have to be talking about for ribcages to look straight up unattractive on anyone, so that hopefully she can see that it isn't something you'd have to worry about unless she ever has to deal with such an extreme. If you don't think anorexia is an adequate example, then that's my bad, but I don't think an example was inappropriate.

Sure I understand. But anorexic are not necessarily skinny let alone starving. I guess you could say unless all bones are protruding like a famine victim.. . Bc it’s actually natural for a bit of rib to show with lean people. Anyhow I was just saying using the term anorexic is a stereotype that gets used against people and doesn’t even necessity mean any thinner than the picture in her post
Anorexic don’t normally look like famine victims. maybe 1%

Anyhow obviously you can say what you want. I was just curious. 😊😊
