i read that too and i've been looking at my thighs differently lately, it's so annoying. i know i'm not fat, too.

I can sympathize with the PostSecret writer. You don't have to be super thin for your thighs to touch. I'm 5'5", and my thighs were apart until I went over 125lbs. And when they started touching, I'm not gonna lie, I was alarmed. It's not just about being thin or fat... it's the change in your body shape and the difference in the way jeans look on you and the way you walk. I feel like people with big thighs tend to walk with their legs spread out more, which is less feminine.

It's probably just the writer, like #314 said. For me, my thighs don't touch, but I have a very small frame. If they were to, I'd probably weigh over 130lbs, at 5'2, which is unhealthy. So don't worry about it.

Most peoples thighs do touch, even if they are quite skinny. It's normal for them to not touch, but if they do, it really isn't too big of a deal.

#41 - "well, outside america, thighs don't touch. we can see our penes ("penises") too." well, inside America, we're not so damn uptight about everything. get over yourself. and on the original note, i was very alarmed the first time i saw someone whose thighs didn't touch. i ALWAYS thought they were supposed to. you know, to keep a woman's scent to herself:)

oh lol yeah i don't feel any sympathy for poor oppressed skinny people, sorry

So what lol? your just fat.. lay off the cakes, ice cream, and pizza and youll be all better

If your thighs don't touch I guess you are going to look creepy like Nicole Richie. If they don't you'll probably look waaay to skinny. Don't worry.

i'm a college cheerleader and no where near fat and my thighs have always touched. don't feel bad

don't fret, whoever wrote that postsecret was probably living with an eating disorder or something to have such mortal fear of something so minor. Most people's thighs touch, it's no big deal.
