exactly! people have been so brainwashed into believing that extra weight= extra curves. that is not how it works. curves aren't about weight, they're about body shape. and everyone is calling Candice anorexic and i too think she's really slim (but clearly not actually anorexic) but she has a curvy frame. and a a slim petite woman with measurements like 35-20-35 is WAY curvier than a bigger woman with measurements like 40-35-40. its not about size, its all about the shape.
For all the people saying "Curvy is a shape. It isn't a size".
I'd say that when fatness hides the curves, it's no longer curvy.
curvy is very subjective. for example 5 to me would be on the low side of what i'd call curvy. but generally speaking it's about hip to waist ratio. an overweight (fat, obese, etc) person can definitely be curvy. a skinnier person can definitely be curvy. weight really doesn't factor in as much as that ratio of hip to waist
Slim girls can also have hourglass figure but curvy bodies are generally refered to more voluptuous. They have wider hips. No.1 and 2, I'll call them slim because I prefer slim girls over curvy.
Finally someone who gets it
Yes 👏🏻👏🏻
Goodjob OP. Fat chicks have forever tainted the word curvy though.. If I read curvy on a tinder bio.. Yeah.. I'm not swiping right. Bravo though.
Nailed it dude. Agree 100%. The word curvy doesn't mean what it used to anymore. Hell, just look at the abomination of the last SI Swimsuit Issue. It's a fucking SPORTS magazine that got adorned with fat, unfit (aka lazy, unhealthy) women.
I think we all (OP included) just need to accept that "curvy" and "fat" can be totally interchanged these days, and it's never going to get reversed.
Oh look, another poorly written, anonymous fat shaming take. Super original.
Curves are just continuously bending lines, and they aren't the property of skinny girls. Fat girls can be curvy, men can be curvy, your grandma's sagging boobs can be curvy. Can we get over the fact that we can't police people already? It's old news.
I wrote this like forever ago. So yes it's old news you're late to the party.
I just realized that actually but for some reason it popped up in my feed.
How odd.
Nonetheless, carry on.
Only 4 and 5 are really curvy. Maybe curvy around here means something different, but you need a significant change in Bust-Waist and Waist-Hip measurements to be curvy. That usually means large breasts and thick legs and a booty.. Around here 4 would be curvy and 5 would be slim thicm
isn't slim thick the same as curvy? Curvy isn't a size or weight. Its how big the hips and breasts are in comparison to the waist and these girls have much smaller waists in comparison to their hips and breasts. They certainly aren't sticks. I mean number 1 and 3 aren't that curvy. But they aren't sticks like some people are saying
@Grungenoreos No slim thick means you're a little thick with minimal fat. And I never said curvy was a size or weight, I'm just saying living in a city where curvy and thickness is the norm, that that is our definition. I would say the girls have, by definition of a curve, curves but they aren't so dramtic that they are truly curvy as the modern jargon of society and social media has kinda made it up to be.
I notice how a lot of thick women aren't actually curvy though. They just get called curvy because they are thick and bigger so naturally they have bigger breasts and big booties. But their hips tend to only be slightly bigger than their waists. But thats only the ones I see in real life where I live and you can tell its just because they dont do anything really and eat junk food a lot. But they are still very beautiful of course. It doesn't take their beauty away. I am just staing what I have observed.
@Grungenoreos And that's the issue as people are mislabeling it. And like anything, it's different whereever you go. Fat in Korea would be skinny in the Bay Area. It's all about perspective. Those women you desribed would be chubby to me. Women tend to say they're curvy to make themselves feel better or empowered, but lying doesn't help anything. Regardless in my environment some of those girls aren't curvy
Lol none of them are really curvy to me except for nr. 4 and 5 lol
I think you are too quick to call people fat and fat is not a nice word it insults people and it makes them insecure. Nobody likes to call themselves fat, that's probably why many women call themselves curvy.
And who are you to dictate what curvy really means?
Could u not find anyone without breast implants? 😔
Love ur gutsy my take ur thinking what every other person is who isn't fat! If I put weight on I never call myself curvy even though I'm egg timer shape and put it on all over. I just look fat and I refuse to try and convince myself I'm socially acceptable because I was lazy or greedy.
@99percentangel. Please tell ellielexis153 on here cuz she blocked me that I fuckin know wjat curvy is. It is whem your hips and bust is significantly wider than your waist. I know it has nothing to do with your wieght or size. Tell her she is so fuckin ass weak for blockin me. can't take an argument lmao. by the way also tell her your breasts are curves and so technically having them make you more curvy then if you didn't have em
curvy is where you gain weight babe. Not where your hip bones stick out. Lets say you gain 30lbs but your still an hourglass because your genetically gifted.
@somebodysaycheese I know that already lmao
@somebodysaycheese its a natural gift. And it does mean your hips stick out a lot more than your waist regardless of your waist
yes, its where you gain weight. yes the first girl isn't curvy and 2 of them looked photoshopped
@somebodysaycheese I know!! Its where you gain weight at. I have to tell this to people all the time. You can be small and still be an hourglass shape and still be one when u are fat. Its just way more pronounced when u are in shape because muscle defines your shape and pronounces jt better
no not really. muscle doesn't it gives it a more harsher look. . Take pinup models from the 40s-60s. We would call them fat because muscle and definition was attractive in their time
*wasnt attractive
@somebodysaycheese no they werent fat. And i know plenty of muscular women that are hourglass. I am not talking about having six pack abs and very muscular legs. I am simply speaking girls that are just toned. You know sleek legs and toned arms? Not chubby but not muscular per say
@somebodysaycheese i never thought they ever were fat. Being muscualar isn't about looking muscular. I know plenty of strong girls who dont appear strong. They look delicate and curvy. The toned flesh adds to their physique. At least from what i know. And people that know their shit always say that toning up will add to your shape because it firms you up. You aren't flabby
My point women of the 40s'-60s werent toned it wasn't considered attractive. Yet they had the best bodies i think of any era ever. 100 percent natural.
@somebodysaycheese if not being toned meant I wasn't healthy then fuck not being toned just to be hot. Thats pathetic. I am no longer sickly because now I am in shape and dont eat crap. Not to mention I have a lower risk of heart disease.
@somebodysaycheese oh and I actually gained wieght.. Haha im not so sickly thin now that I exercise. My butt got bigger and my hips did too. So did my thighs
@somebodysaycheese and yeah theyvwere toned. Lots of women then werent weak. They were healthy and werent flabby
Im not sure what your saying.
You guys are blowing up my notifs lol
@somebodysaycheese dont tell me its better to not be in shape. Who gives a shit what you look like if being in shape is better. When you are in shape there is a glow about you that isn't there otherwise. I am no longer sickly and I actually gained weight with exercise. My thighs and butt got bigger and i look better. Not to mention Im not weak anymore. No woman should advocate strength. Not saying go lift 100 pounds. But you know, its okay for woman to want to be strong. Its beautiful to be strong and healthy. Getting dizzy from running a mile is no bueno and advocating squats ismt good. As you get older your body starts to deteriorate. Being in shape helps a lot.
@somebodysaycheese my grama is 70 and still kicking it. She attributes it to exercise and good eating. At 14 she was an hourglass already with measurements of 34-24-35. And she has since stayed hourglass despite wieght gain. No one thinks she is as old as she is. Everyone tends to think she's my Mom when we go out and can't believe she is 70. She is youthful. She is able to repeatedly life 10 pounds, do squats, and do all kinds of leg movements. I want to grow old healthy like that. Its exercise and good eating.
She loves exercising and always has. She hasn't had any health problems and though she has naturally gained weight with age, she is nicely toned for a 70 year old lady and always been an hourglass. I want to grow old healthy and strong. So good eating and exercise it is
Thank you thank you thank you !!! Fat people lie to themselves all the time. Get a fuckin clue! That big ass stomach is big because you're full of excuses! Hit the gym and losee 10lbs and then maybe you can call yourself curvy.
And just because some weird people are attracted to fatties... that doesn't mean you get to think you're hott shit, You're fat. Admit it!
Who really cares though? If some girl who's fat wants to call herself curvy then who's stopping her? I swear y'all care about the weirdest things.
Haha. U r so right girl !
@IndianGirl01Thanks :)
It's not that I have a huge problem with it but they have a huge wrong understanding of what curvy really means. And many people are now thinking it's okay to be obese because it's considered curvy and curvy is hot, while it is not curvy in fact it's very unhealthy and they're only curvy looking because of how much fat they have on their whole body including their hips.
I understand what you're saying takeowner. Being obese is definitely not okay but everyone has different perception on what is considered obese and unhealthy.
because 'fat' is subjective. chubby girls are told they're fat, which isn't true. But the actual obese people are just unhealthy, and often call themselves curvy so they feel as if they're not unhealthy.
@bente2 FYI, anything can can be measured is not "subjective" as you put it. If bodyfat % is above a certain established healthy level, it is what it is.
But I do agree with you that the word "fat" has been replaced by the word "curvy in many cases because somehow "fat" is offensive. "curvy" will be considered offensive too soon.
Oh, and someone being chubby by the way, is caused by excess bodyfat
Ya, everyone but the health and medical professions!
And this is where the doctors should grow a pair and be mandated to step in. Bodyfat calculations should be a compulsory assessment and serious discussion during every physical.
Anyone seen the movie WALL-e? That's where the human race is heading. Half way there already actually
@GuysGuy cubby can also be the way someone is build. (broad shoulders, wide legs etc.) But I agree with you overall. I'm afrais we're all heading for wall-e too.
@bente2 I'll have to go and disagree with you there. The human skeleton is the human skeleton. With minor variations. Chubby has nothing to do with build unfortunately. That's just another line of BS to make kids feel better.
If big-boned was a thing...
realfunny.net/.../...ing_big_boned._4111983790.jpg
I've noticed fat girls to be the most ignorant and stubborn women ever. That's probably why they never bothered to get in better health. What's on the outside correlates on the inside. Stubbornness and ignorance is a ugly trait.
Can you guys stop replying to my post you guys are blowing up my notifications.
@GracefulCharm I know there isn't a thing as 'heavy boned', but the way the bones are set does relate to being chubby. Some people have a more 'masculine' build.
Yes. Curvy is bike structure. Some people have a straight shape. Some straight on top curvy on bottom. some curvy on bottom straight on top some hour glass. some square some triangular... But it doesn't matter how much flesh you have. If your bone structure is a pipe line you won't hear curvy. Likewise you can be skin and bone and still have curve. Having breasts and butt didn't make you curvy. Though it adds curves to. Curvy figure.
I think most time when people say curvy they mean corpulant.
Candice the first girl really is curvy to me just not on this picture and number four is very curvy as well. I don't know about the rest of them. They look to have square hips and wide stomachs that I wouldn't consider curvy. Curvy is when you have proportions on your body that stick out from the rest in a roundness. LIke Candace her hips are what makes her curvy, they stick out and are very round. Number four has a very hourglass shape. Her small waste makes her curvy because it causes her breast and hips to appear very round. Also a fat girl or a thin girl can be curvy if they have proportions that stick out on their body. Curvy is just that, curves, and curves are round I thought. I consider myself curvy because of my hip ratio. No matter what size I am they always poke out fut her than any part of my body even since I have gained more wight and have a little belly.
Everyone has their own idea of curvy, your idea is not the end all be all, it's simply your opinion. Personally, I think someone skinny can have a curvier shape THOUGH I prefer the body type to have more body fat/be softer.
I think Candice has wide hips/thighs, but that doesn't really make her curvy... she just has wide thighs.
And 2 is just standing that way, her hips looks pretty straight and long and it's just that she has meatier legs.
This is such a stupid post. #1 is so skinny.
Skinny girls can never know what being curvy actually means. They can't see how naturally the bodies of some women are curvy. I call someone overweight only if their belly is out. But i COMPLETELY DISAGREE with ur definition of curvy.
Who said I was skinny? I'm average weight thank you very much.
Two, four and five are curvy. The other two are thin
I completely agree that being unhealthy shouldn't be promoted and that "curvy" is too often used as a cop out for being overweight... but honestly, if want to make the point of showing what a curvy body really looks like, maybe find some pictures that haven't been airbrushed within an inch of their life.
Number four is the only curvy one tbh. The others hardly have any curves. Curviness has nothing to be with weight. You can be skin or far while being curvy. Candice really isn't curvy.
Finally! I wouldn't agree on number one. Maybe cuz her right leg is back a little more her hips don't lookIke she's curvy. But awesome take!
Yeah number one was a bad example sorry
But she is curvy for how skinny, and anorexic she is.
Lol yeah true.
