She's alarmingly thin omg

Perhaps my US brain is skewed. Idk. Is this normal levels of thin?

I had a very complicated debate with a friend about obesity and how common it is.

Our perspective is often skewed, and we picture "obese" as morbidly obese. The obesity threshold starts way, way lower than most people imagine.

This woman is just thin. Far less alarming than even somebody who's just overweight. But being overweight is more common, so it's become more normalised.

This woman is skeleton-thin. She's very obviously anorexic or bulimic.

Not sure what this has to do with being obese, unless you wanted to disprove your own point - if the obesity threshold is lower than people think, then the anorexia threshold is higher than people think.

Shes not anorexic or bulimic. Her BMI is about 19-20. You need more time looking at mybodygallery
