Why is it wrong to say someone’s fat but totally ok to say someone’s skinny? (I hate that word “skinny”.) Growing up, people always assumed I was anorexic or malnourished. When I was pregnant with our first child, people said I looked like a string with a knot tied in it, and worried I’d never be able to nourish my child. Now, as a 36 yr old wife and mom of 2 teenage boys, I’m still thin but not scary looking, apparently. I think as you get older the weight will come, but you’re right to want to be healthy. </p> <p> As a woman, I’ve often bemoaned the plight of the skinny woman, but I’ve never really thought about it from a man’s perspective. Both our boys are skinny. Our oldest is 14, already almost 6’ 1” tall, and weighs about 120. (Impossible to find size 28 waist, 34 length pants! Where do you shop??) Thanks for your post here...it will help me to relate to him. </p> Wow, I hear ya on the skinny thing. Why is it wrong to say someone’s fat but totally ok to say someone’s skinny?
