How can I get comfortable with my body ? I'm not considered the average body type? - Music is love - 04-30-2013 02:16 AM
I'm 16 and 5'6 or 5'7 . I'm several inches taller than most of the girls at my school and it makes me feel like I stand out. I'm also pretty skinny , for my height I'm 5-10 pounds underweight and I just look awkward and lanky. I have really small boobs, 34B or 36A and I desperately want to be a C. My family members all range from D's to G cups !!! I also have a tiny butt. Social media portrays women who are sexy basically having the opposite body type of me. Especially in the black community, I'm expected to be curvy. I don't consider myself ugly at all, but I feel like I don't measure up in comparison to other girls. What should I do to feel better about myself ?

I can kind of identify with you although I have boobs and a butt - other than that I'm on the slim side. I'm 5'4 and 114 lbs (I'm 17 in 6 days). I used to be 130 lbs but I lost a lot of weight when I started college and I haven't put weight back on. Even though my butt is still big it used to be a lot bigger when I weighed more so I'm kind of self conscious about it now. Anyway, not all black girls are thick or curvy. A lot of models are 5'7 + and are very skinny and they still get a lot of attention from guys and girls want to look like them.
Black women that are skinny:

Rihanna is very skinny and she is considered one of the most beautiful women around right now (even though I disagree and can't stand her).
Also, if you are underweight you should visit your doctor to see what you can do about that. You might be able to set up a meal plan. x
