Re: 14-02-07 Topic Three: No Such thing as Natural Size 0 part1

[kawaiinekochick2]

HAI GAIS-- size 0 is 22-23 inch waist roundabout?

MARILYN MONROE'S WAIST SIZE WAS 0.

... Is she anorexic? Sizes HAVE gotten larger. NOT smaller, contrary to popular belief. MM's measurements: 35-22-35 roundabout. I agree with you, BellydanceRaks, people suck and are ignorant.

[nummulite99]

What kills me is that the ones who criticise, bully and discriminate against women the most are other women. Why are we so damn mean to each other? A lot of the women starving themselves to achieve these small sizes aren't doing it to attract guys, they're doing it to compete with other women. Why? We need to learn to be comfortable with ourselves and love the fact that we're all so different. Size 0 or size 20, it's our body and we should nurture it because it's the only one we will ever have!

[sarahgerick898]

I'm so glad i've come across this video!

It's not politicaly correct to take the piss out of fat people, so why shoud it be okay to do so to slim women? Women come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, and body fascists need to get the fuck over it.

[GothBBW]

Just like people who there is no such thing as a naturally fat girl. They say she must eat all the time and never exercise. The truth is humans come in a WIDE range of natural shapes and sizes. It's insane to think that everyone has to weigh X if they are Y height and if they don't they must have an ED or be a glutton. When is society and the media going to stop trying to make everyone one shape and size? We should be embracing our the wonderful diversity instead of trying to squash it.

[TaMatakiaSou]

Great video. Awesome to see another naturally petite belly dancer!

[jennyforsale]

I totally agree with you. I get called anorexic a lot too and im naturally skinny. It's like once someone hears oh shes a size 0 they immediatley think that person is anorexic or has an eating disorder.

[xndr001]

you rock!

[lilmsbasketcase]

"you dont see people like me, going online and posting crap on youtube about how naturally bigger women are evil, bigger women are disgusting, fat hideous."

actually there are tons videos on youtube insulting or making fun of fat people.

its nice that you don't think that, and you didn't deserve what that b*tch in the bar did to you, but you DO get people who do and say nasty stuff to fat people too. you aren't alone on this, i think everyone gets picked on for their body shape.

[dnicole86]

I blame the so-called news media for all of the body image issues. If you are a big, you have a group of people telling you "Gross" or "you need to diet" and at the same time another group is telling thin people that they are also gross and need to gain weight. Either way, it is a no win situation. In my opinion, women need to stick together and stop being catty towards each other over the superficial. The so-called "Fat vs.Skinny war" needs to stop.

[Rinsuki]

Good lord, people just keep going with this weight issue. There are naturally thin and curvy women. I am average but I can gain a couple of pounds, if I feel lethargic and unhealthy because I've been eating too many sweets I exercise or eat less of those. Its about how you feel and the health zone. Why control other people and how they look?

[dancingoncars]

. You are absolutely fine the way you are! I feel this whole natural size 0 is a myth thing is complete rubbish. Some women are tired of thinking skinny is the norm so they love the idea that being skinny cannot be normal. It is like; instead of waging war against themselves they wage war against skinny people. When in actuality the proper approach to the whole situation is just to learn to be at peace.

[westonii]

Ok, well I DO believe there are some naturally really slim women. I mean, besides in America, in places like Honduras, they are all 00-4's I mean how could you say there isn't any size 0's out there that are not starving themselves or purging or what not. BUT, I don't think that size 00-0 woman don't eat like maybe a size 4 would. People eat different amounts of food, and I think that naturally size zero women eat less but not to the point of starvation, because they aren't hungry!

[ifunanya24]

IF YOU ARE NATURALLY SKINNY FIND OUT WHAT WORKS FOR YOU TO GET YOU INTO THE HEALTHY ZONE! it may be food combination, or more protein or whatever, usually it can be rectified, in the same way OBESE (naturally or otherwise find help to lose weight) More and more now, young girls who are naturally skinny don't go for help, maybe because it fits into todays skinny obsessed culture/society. BEING OVER or UNDER WEIGHT, reduces your chances of safe recovery if you should fall sick or be hospitalized.

[BellydanceRaks]

thanks a lot, I'm glad to have helped change one persons mind. It all starts with one person right? you all have a wonderful holiday season

[sapphoslips]

hey i completely bought the myth about no natural size 0s and could compltely get the rant against thinner women. but your video's really made me re-think these things. i am really sorry for the amount of stress and abuse you have had to face because of your natural size. thank you for posting this and standing up for yourself and other naturally think women. you're very cool and and very beautiful. all the best with the dancing!

[petitebombshell20]

I truely feel where you're comming from because I'm going through the same situation and it's a coincidence that we weigh the same, i'm just a lot shorter. I'm 5'3 and a half and I weigh 105 pounds too. I've always had a naturally small frame and yea I used to have an obsession with gaing weight cuz I got tired of people making dumb-ass comments about my size, but I'm happy with my size now because I know that is what makes me unique!! So gurl U are not alone!!!

[RubySkyStevens]

You go girl! Everyone is beautiful in his own way...You're right :) Enjoyed the vid :)

[medsociologist09]

A 5'8" woman at 105lbs would have a BMI of 16.0, which is WELL below normal. If you had been a model at the Madrid show, you would have been banned for an unhealthy BMI. Maybe it's time to re-evaluate? Surely, natural thin does exist, but how can so many women suddenly be claiming to be "naturally size 0"? 99.9% of women cannot achieve a size 0 and be healthy. It's equivalent to having the waist of an 8 year old girl.

[medsociologist09]

Regardless, super thin women do not face the same discrimination as fat women. It's like white people claiming to experience the same kind of discrimination as blacks. It's silly. Skinny women don't actually get discriminated against for jobs because of their size on a regular and consistent basis. Or for health care or seating on public transportation or in the media. In fact, your body type is celebrated and worshipped in our culture. Girls are literally killing themselves to look like you.

[BellydanceRaks]

Actually that's false. I used to be wood worker, I made custom cabinetry, I left that line of work when I lost my job after the company i worked for went under. I got turned down for about 4 jobs for the sheer fact that they thought I couldn't handle the work load because for 1 i am a woman and for 2 i am as small as i am.

[FatalCunt420]

@medsociologist09 yes they do, your discriminating against them now!

many woman are naturally size 0, and are picked on for it just as much as fat woman if not more. I have seen more skinny woman get tormented then fat woman in my life.

[BellydanceRaks]

you see woman like me get called anorexic and like all day, the problems and situations i have talked about in the video, if THAT'S not discrimination,well then i don't know what is.

[Shebeethin]

Once it was in to be thick and I was told only dogs like a bone so I'd try to gain weight! I'm naturally thin but I gain and lose weight depending on my life style. I never get bigger then a size 3 but does that mean I'm not a natural size zero when I'm a size zero or below? Bigger women go from a size 10 to a 7 depending on how they're living and no one will say she's not a natural size 7.

[BellydanceRaks]

Your a natural whatever pants fit that day, thats the way it is with all of us I say 0 because thats what always tends to fit. I go between 0's 1's and 3's depending on what time of month it is and how much i've eaten that day.

[Tinkpaars]

Size doesn't matter, as long as you're healthy. All women should bellydance, because bellydancing is for all sizes. :)

I'm 5"5 and 115 pounds and get sick of people who accept my shape less then I do.

[2FleetCaddie8]

its impossiable to be 5"8 105 and have boobs and a butt unless thats where all your weight is..Im 110 and 5"1ft.If your always on this site...apparently you dont eat or something.EVeryone has a "butt"but you must be scrawny as all fuck you dont even have nice clothes you look like shit!Your pretty but you look like you dont have any style!

[BellydanceRaks]

this was also at 3am after i got off work. so i was in my pjs. so yeah fashion aside, your the people i was talking about.

[2FleetCaddie8]

What ae you talking about i am a natural size 1 and when i lose 5 lbs people think i dont eat and im annorexic which i was when i was in 8-9th grade soooo dont classify me with the other people you dont know me so shut your ugly ass mouth.

[BellydanceRaks]

go take your crap somewhere else, Im standing up for the skinny girls, you got a problem with that then your obviously not happy with yourself, I am happy with myself and the way i look, thats the reason im confident enough to stand up and make a statement. Youtube is a free speech community I dont have to shut up about any of my ideas or thoughts, thats what this community is based on. Dont like it? go somewhere else.

[2FleetCaddie8]

Accually I am 100% Happy with my self.Honestly,I Have never been called ugly so why wouldnt i be happy i have had a bf for OVER 3 Years EVERYDAY he tells me i am hor and i am gerogious. And I Have seen people your height your weight WITH NOTHING I love my self and am 100% confident about my self.And Honestly NOT EVERY Women cares about what the"FAMOUSE"Peoplelook like because not healthy most of them on drugs and shit.I Am not like "MOST"Women and is like boo hoo i dont look like everyone else!

[HornyFaggot]

You don't make any sense!

[kittybaby414]

i agree! im a natural size 0/00 im 5'9 117 but i did gymnastics for 10 yrs

[2FleetCaddie8]

There you go thats called exercizing sweatie its called fast metabolisium because of what you did for 10 years,your body put its self in that stage where you burned alot because of gymnastics.Technically thats not a natural size.Thats called working on your body to keep it that way which isnt bad!

[kittybaby414]

:D i guess ur right but i have been out of any sports for a yr now and im still a size 0'0

[2FleetCaddie8]

Still Doesnt Matter you can still keep you metabolisum fast just by being active and not (sitten on your bum)!Which iam sure you dont

[90Heaven90]

LOL im a 5'1 87Lbs a size 00 and I have never exersized particeipated in a sport or gone to a gym EVER ( Nor do i struggle with an eating disorder). I also wear a 32 c bra and have a 21 inch waist so i deffinatly dont lack 'curve's'. Natural size 0's exsist not ever skinny person has to work on there body or deprive themselves's in order to achive how they look its called genetics. haha 4 skinny grandparents, 2 skinny parents produce's a skinny child :D

[gabzii08]

i totally agree women come in all shapes and sizes weather thats size 16/size 0. People dont seem to realise that some people are naturally thin my cousin eats soooo much and she is very very thin and she has not got an eating disorder. i think its so sad that women go out in the street and have people judge them because they are too fat or too skinny. why cant everybody just worry about their own weight.

[THEOogalieBoogalie]

It's just your bone structure. My bone structure doesnt let me get any lower than a 10. And Im Ok with that. Its just numbers.

[fireangel3]

about time somebody braks the silence, you got guts, not many people like to openly talk about this because so many usually don't want to accept woman do come in all shapes, and think they all should look like j lo, and i think its fucked up anyone would do that to you in public

[iloveapiano]

I wish I knew what my "natural size" was...

[BellydanceRaks]

Thank you all for your understanding and thoughtfull comments

[xlilmisshanzx]

im a natural size 0/00

[karenmichellemorris]

Well done for posting, and Im really gutted to hear about the way youve been treated.

[karenmichellemorris]

naturally women are all different shapes and sizes, it seems unfortunate that contemporary culture goes through phases of who is beautiful that month or not. I do agree that women on unhealthy crash diets to get to size 0 need help, and need to change their mindframes, but its not right to give naturally skinny women grief. we should be positive with the way we naturally look, and not be pressurised to change, as long as you eat healthy and exercise.

[sheenaayk4]

wow thx for posting :-)

[vio8181]

well done!
