My high school gym teacher had this theory that if you stand with your feet shoulder-length apart and your thighs touch, you're fat. I couldn't believe she'd say that to high school kids, but I still check every now and then. There are much worse things in the world than thighs touching... like not having legs at all.

only sickly anorexic peoples thighs dont touch. dont worry about it too much, mine touch...whatcha gonna do

Listen to all the hate and anger from the overweight folks trying to rationalize their "chub rub" on a website. 34% of Americans are obese, another 32% are overweight....so odds are most americans who are posting here trying to call those of healthy weight "anorexic" is laughable....notice I didn't say normal weight...because the normal in America is fat. Nice going, fatties.

#301 and others, just....stop. Stop trying to convince yourselves that if someone's thighs don't touch then they are anorexic. I'm at a healthy weight and my thighs do not touch. I don't judge you, nor think you are fat for your thighs touching, so why do people like me whose thighs don't touch face such scrutiny by people here? I'm sure not everyone who commented against people whose thighs don't touch are fat, but some of you sound like really bitter self-loathing individuals trying to make yourselves feel better by stating falsities about others. Seriously.

exact same thing happened to me. not so into post secret anymore :P

me too -_- FOL.

if your thighs don't touch when your feet are together, you need to work your legs out, doesn't matter how skinny you are, to be in a proper musculo-skeletal balance they should touch or be near (a centimeter or two depending on height) or else you will have some major hip problems when you get older (50-60) however, this should not be fat, but muscle instead, this is especially true of individuals with a "middle European or eastern euro" body type

if your thighs dont touch that means that you dont have a healthy weight or muscle tonus and there was a message about it on the website from a woman saying that her thighs have always touched and that she knew that she was beautiful its definitely nothing to be ashamed of

Before i write anything, I would like everybody to know that I do not have any sort of eating disorder, problem, etc. I am completely healthy. My thighs do not touch. Honestly, it is quite annoying to hear everybody comment than if that happens to anybody they must be anorexic. It's ignorant. Just like having your thighs touch is healthy, having your thighs not touch is healthy too. It just depends on your body type. Please, be a bit more considerate.

oh schiz. mine do. :[
