Welcome to theskinnygirlproblems.tumblr.com
We do not starve ourselves but we have something called a fast metabolism. This means that our body burns fat at a very fast and uncontrollable rate and so gaining weight is difficult and simply impossible. We are naturally skinny and may be underweight beyond our control but we are very much as real as any human, we strive to be healthy as any other and we do not want to be judged. Not many people understand this and we hope to eradicate the unfair treatment and ignorance in society. This is our safe space to share and a place where we can come together in the movement to raise awareness. This is a positive blog. Check out the FAQ for more.Disclaimer: These issues won't relate to every skinny girl.

Perhaps! Looking through the conventional tags makes me feel weird =’/ They are filled with mixed pictures! Any ideas yourself?
Indeed! It’s never okay to guess someone’s size!
Yeah, those tags are daunting -_- I saw the notice at the top too.
I never show my arms :( I never wear short-sleeves *sigh*
Lol you could have written it in lesser asks, you still have some more space I’m sure!
Thanks for that. Beautiful. You are very right about the second sentence. People need to stop trying to please a society that can never be pleased. Who do you want to gain or lose weight for? Yourself or for society or for your friends? No matter what, if you do not love and accept your body you will not go anywhere.
Oh wow. I have never heard of a 45 year old naturally skinny woman. I know about skinny women in their 30s and 40s but wow! Genes are powerful. Nature is powerful.
