Blast from the past

By fat_thighs - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I read a PostSecret that said, "I'm afraid my thighs will start to touch soon." My thighs have always touched. I didn't even know thighs weren't supposed to touch. FML

this isn't so bad really. your thighs touching doesn't mean you're fat or anything.

I bet her thighs never touched cause there's always a guy in between them!

The only people who's thighs don't touch are people who are suuuper skinny and have wide hips as well. Just think about the geometry. The hip sockets have to be spread pretty far apart to keep thighs apart. and if you have any sort of thigh muscle, which is a good thing, they'll probably touch unless you spread your legs.

The person who wrote the postsecret doesn't have a problem because their thighs don't touch, but because they're concerned about keeping them from touching. Also, don't feel bad. I remember seeing ANTM contestants be rejected because their thighs didn't touch.

If your thighs didn't touch you'd walk around like you were about to take a dump. I just lol at this actually.

I have big ol' thunder thighs (and a self-deprecating sense of humor) both from athleticism and being pleasantly plump. Sometimes I wish my thighs didn't touch, simply because of the fat-girl affliction of inner-thigh chub rub. But having ones' thighs touch is normal. Just like not having thighs touch for some people is normal.

my whole family have legs where our thighs don't touch. i know that if my thighs ever touch it's because i'm out of shape and over weight

thighs are supposed to touch. self esteem more please

That PostSecret is obviously by someone who has an eating disorder. I am really skinny, and my thighs have touched since I was 15 years old. It's part of being a woman. Realize those curves that make your thighs touch are beautiful!
