    Thin isn’t anorexic, you’re ignorance is harmful to those who actually suffer from such a disease; and those who don’t but suffer from the misconceptions of strangers regarding their body type.

    Educate yourself.

        Although these images may be AI generated they represent real world body types, this one is a facsimile of someone I know personally. I understand that any sensitivity I have regarding that is my own but I don’t think allowing body shaming here will help foster a healthy community or help us develop our skills.

          I’ve known a few women who are just built like this also. Some people (and nationalities in general) hold less body fat. Some people even have medical conditions unrelated to digestive or eating disorders, which manifest as low body fat also. I agree with your sentiment 100% here…

            Or swimming… Now that I think about it, most people don’t see female swimmers naked, that explains so much.
