I just am and always have been. I'm seriously the size of a 12 year old and yes I sometimes buy kids clothes. All my life, I've constantly been told that I need to eat more, I need to gain weight, and I was asked if I was anorexic as I'm eating a double quarter pounder and a large fry. It kind of annoys me when I hear the phrase "real women have curves". So does that mean I'm not a real woman because I wear a size 1 jeans? While the media may insinuate that everyone should be thin, some "real women" look down on those that are small and I have been made fun of about my size. There are two sides to everything. I think everyone just needs to get past how big or small they are, just strive to be healthy, and love themselves and each other for who they are and not what they look like.

i agree...
