Yesterday I was scrolling through tweets of friends of friends, looking for new people to follow and generally "eavesdropping" on interesting conversations. I came across a tweet from a woman who seems to exude confidence and attitude . She was complaining about being 5'10", weighing a buck and a quarter, and denying herself some comfort food. PUH-LEAZE! My first thought was "You're kidding right? Even Liv Tyler told someone to shove it when they wanted her below 130lbs. 135-150lbs is a healthy weight for someone 5'10". My second thought was "Your boyfriend must like the pre-pubescent boy look," - not kind, I know, but damn, "no cushion for the pushin'" because every other tweet from this woman was about how much sex she gets. I needed a little snark to offset my third thought -- the inevitable "skinny b*itch". I don't like being jealous. It means I need a reality check. I can relate to being the skinny...
That's not a typo.
