My body is very athletic and I don't like it

[Anonymous]

I have broad shoulders and thick thighs. My legs are strong and I have a big bust, but no butt. I'm short and in no way petite. I'm a mesomorph body type. I weigh 125 and I'm 5'2. Thing is I know my body type and I'm trying to work with it but people, especially my mom is just like omg you have such a man body. And it really hurts, because I don't want to be described like that. Anyways, how can I work/ style my body type?

You need to learn to be comfortable in your own skin. You say you are a mesomorph well that's better than an ectomorph a girl so skinny she can fall through an ant hole. You sound like you may have a touch of endomorph as well. Are you an athlete? If so you need to stop comparing your body to non-athletic girls you have more muscle mass than them so you're going to be built different. If you ever watch college volleyball, track and field, gymnastics, or softball those girls are built and they still look pretty darn good especially volleyball and track girls little shorts and thick thighs mmm mmm good, but that's coming from another athlete. I know it hurts to hear your mom say something like that but she comes from a generation where girls starved themselves to stay thin now-a-days its all about curves. Thick thighs and a nice bust and you complaining girl please. Throw on some nice shorts and a fitted shirt you turn heads trust me.

A fashion question, let's see, emphasis needs to be on the bust, the legs, need to detract attention from the hindquarters and the shoulders, suggests lower cut tops with a more skirt type outlook. The narrower the cut, the lower the shoulder exposure, the greater the bust effect.

How long is your hair?

My hair is in a growing stage, so it's like almost to my shoulders.

Perfect, workable, emphasis of the facial shape, use it to draw down a V to the breasts running and intersecting at the midpoint of the V for greater effect. Yes. ... Hm, what else? I think I've completely failed to dress you up in my head; it's more of a mannequin look, and I like it, but I don't think it's "real-to-life" partially because it requires me to take note of any peculiarities and mannequins don't have those. Whatever the case, I know how to draw attention to whatever it is you want.

Thanks. Your a real fashionista.

[blackkid4]

Don't thank me. Thank the others, because they want you to be you, and I want to simply capitalize on your features. They are the real good people of the world.

The best you can do is feel comfortable with, and accept how you look. Work with it, dress and act accordingly to accent your figure. What really helps me accept how I look is this mantra:

"You don't have anything which no-one else has, and still you are unique. There will always be people prettier and uglier than you. If those people are accepted, you are accepted, as long as you accept yourself."

With that weight I don't know if you could lose anymore weight without going into the unhealthy range. A mesomorph is a fine body type. You could try cardio and glute workouts and just see what happens.

True, I was thinking about toning but I don't want to get too muscular. My life is a constant battle between not wanting to get too muscular and looking feminine.
