LGBTAitp - Part Thirteen

[Nix Nihila]

Have fun! We'll miss you!

And no, don't worry, you're good.

@heliomance's photo Wow, very nice.

[Mystic Muse]

(HUGS)
Miss you already! Pop over the channel and come hug me, kk?

I would, but the monies. Has them, I do not.

[Heliomance]

Just OOC - are you transvestite or transsexual?

You don't have to answer if you think this is illegitimate prying. I'm a nosy person.

Not sure, really. I'm confused about it myself. Mostly I think I just don't like being male.

You look pretty.
I hadn't even noticed the beard shadow until the mentioned it.

*is jealous that you can pull it off so well.*

Heliomance --

Nice.
You look like a Spanish countess.

I actually thought I had remembered wrong about your gender until I saw this, so you most certainly don't look like a guy in girls' clothing.

Eheh... sorry to disappoint

Just because it doesn't apply to every single person (which would be impossible for any system, I imagine), doesn't mean it's rubbish.

But the HtW Ratio is better - as pointed out, still not perfect (which I doubt we can ever attain), but a better rough guide that can be done at home.

On a personal note, I think I have conditionally good body image. I should have a rockin' bod - perfect hourglass, good hips, big boobs - but, well, I don't, cuz I'm overweight But someday!

Hey. The pretty ones have the same problems as the rest of us. Poor poor gorgeous Helio (I did a similar post a while back).

Hmm, shaved my legs for the first time ever last week. The actual shaving didn't hurt though, but itchy and achy the day afterwards. Shaven legs are pretty awesome though. Couldn't keep my hands of em the first days after.

All this flattery's going to go to my head!
I'm really not all that gorgeous

[golentan]

Perhaps not from some hypothetical objective standard of beauty, but as it's in the eye of the beholder I can assure you I find you very nice looking in the picture you posted.

[Heliomance]

Why is it that whenever I read this thread lately I end up with this little smile stuck to my face that won't go away?

[golentan]

Because we recognize and approve of your sexy-fineness and are willing to expound at length on the subject?

Man, if I had someone IRL to do that for me I'd never stop smiling. Or hugging them.

I repeat; make your way to England. :P

If there's hugs in the offing, I'll say ANYTHING. And you're not even asking for lies! Jackpot!

BMI is a ratio of height to weight.

[Serpentine]

HtW ratio is Hip to Waist.

[Blisstake]

Oh, haha!

Does that really work better though? And how does one go about measuring their hip length?

[Serpentine]

It's hip and waist circumferance. I linked to the wiki page on it earlier. It's a better indicator of body fat, health, fertility and (arguably ) aesthetics than the BMI.
As a rough thing, you measure your waist at the narrowest and the hips at the widest, although it seems it's a touch more complicated than that when done properly (i.e. you're meant to measure the hips... at the lower end of the pelvis or something like that). Anyway, then you divide the hips by the waist. Women should be around 0.7, men at around 0.9*.

*For visual aesthetic appeal, these values vary slightly between ethnicities. I'm not sure whether the ideal value for health varies as well.

I would say that from a purely aesthetic perspective you don't need to lose any weight at all.

[KenderWizard]

Go buy them again. Go, go, go!

Maybe... after exams... Right now I'm eating constantly, except when I'm asleep, which is a lot. So I'm getting a bit (). After exams I'll be going mapping, so I'll be out in the fresh air climbing over rocks, and hopefully look a bit more )(. But thanks. Even though you don't know what I look like in shorts (I presume!), it made me

Thanks The whole double chin thing is really getting to me lately... :/

[Lix Lorn]

I think you look cute.

[SMEE]

I second that.
Pretty Serpy is very pretty as she is now.

[Serpentine]

...
I think I need to either leave this thread or go lez or something
Thanks guys, and sorry

[Thufir]

I think I need to either leave this thread or go lez or something

Why? The guys in this thread find you attractive as well!
Well, presumably not the gay ones. But I think we have enough bisexuality to go around.

[Serpentine]

Well sure, but it's hardly LGBT-related, is it?

[Thufir]

Well sure, but it's hardly LGBT-related, is it?

We could ask the opinions of the FtMs?

[Serpentine]

Yeah, well...

[SMEE]

Anyway, good things regarding the LGBT community happened here in Brazil yesterday, and other good things happened that made me feel more confident about my body image.

I am even considering not getting breast implants anymore.

Happy Smee is happy and will party like it is 1999.

[Serpentine]

I saw that. Yay Brazil!
And yay bosom?

[SMEE]

Still tiny, but not as tiny now.
But I am growing comfortable about them.
Take one or two years more and I might get to A cups.

[Miscast_Mage]

@SMEE: Trade ya a pair of man-boobs for your flat chest, win-win. >_>

But no, seriously, be proud of your body! A flat chest is status symbol! And a lot of people like petite, small breasted women, so be proud and show the world you're saying no to the baloon-chested ideal, and that you're happy the way you are!(also, less lower-back pain. Point.)

Also, because I didn't mention it earlier; Heliomance you're a cutie-pie and you know it, and serp Slurpintime, you could possibly take over a country with your buxxom beauty. Now go and spread the word; big is beautiful!

I am and like heavy guys, and I'm not ashamed! No-one should be ashamed when it comes to body-type! Who's with me? Viva la revolution!

Now, what happened in Brazil, exactly? :3c
