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.

@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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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

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.

you rock!

"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.

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.
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

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.

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.

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.
