Which do you prefer? I'm naturally skinny with long legs and almost nonexistent hips, and I've been told that it makes me "less feminine" which I find really offensive. So I'm wondering if everyone thinks this way? Which leg type do you prefer?


Skinny (looks almost exactly like my legs, admittedly it does come off as a little gangly...):

Honestly (I am a girl) I don't think it matters, at all. I bet half the people who have "shapely" legs would be dying for skinnier ones. I mean you just have to buy different clothes to flatter your legs. You say you have "nonexistent" hips? Just wear ruffles. If somebody points out your legs, you should tell them you are self conscious about them and that you don't go around pointing out flaws that can't be changed.



So, I am coming to a conclusion...probably skinny. Not just to make you feel better, but skinny legs are just really pretty.

Shapley could be borderline fat, or unhealthy.



Be happy with what you have, because people who don't have it want it! (as in you have brown hair your friend has blond...you WANT blond hair she wants brown-this refers to legs...and not all people want another thing...some people know how to be thankful :D) <---ha ha double chin!

I would strongly prefer skinny legs; thats my opinion and like.

Women dont look less feminine if they have skinny legs. They are all perfect the way they are.

Because I have shapely legs I would be happy to trade with you. It is human nature to want what we don't have. Different people have different preferences, and don't listen to those who say your "less feminine" because you have smaller hips. Be proud of them and flaunt them. You have awesome legs...work them to your advantage.:)

it doesn't really matter what your leg type is - all boy are interested is in whats 'between' your legs, not the shape of them
