THIN WOMEN/GIRLS: Are you sick of hearing over weight women calling you fake and anorexic?

I'm a thin, fit, toned girl. I have an hourglass shape, I have a big butt and decent sized boobs and hips, but I have a small, toned waist and I'm petite . I'm about 115lbs yet i get called fake and anorexic because I'm not fat and blubbery. I'm no less real than a plus sized woman because I'm NATURALLY thin! I'm so sick of hearing rude comments from women who are heavy. Or they think a guy must be gay for wanting to be with a girl who looks like me. I don't get it!! I don't have a boyish figure at all just because I'm thin!! I have curves and I always have guys chasing after me. And they are NOT gay.

So to all you women who are fit and healthy, do you get this a lot?? Are you sick of women who are heavy talking down to you and making you feel like you are less of a woman than they are??

Update:

Also, one more thing. Those women also think girls like me look nasty and disgusting. Its not like I have bones sticking out, or anything or I'm flat as a board. It doesn't make sense to me! But the second anyone calls an over weight woman nasty or disgusting, they get attacked.

Update 2:

How do I sound stuck up? i'm just saying what my body type is, sorry if that makes you feel less of yourself. And its funny that you think they say this to me because of my attitude, because Ive never had someone say this about me personally, but I've heard women say this about girls who look like me. obviously you didnt read my question right.

Update 3:

woww its amazing how if someone says something positive about themselves they get called stuck up. Just because i don't hate the way i look doesn't mean I'm stuck up or think too highly of myself! Its called confidence people!!

    YES! i am extremely small (90 pounds) but i eat like crazy but yet I am completely unable to gain weight. I'm glad that my body is like this, but everyone, especially my friends, harass me about it.

    I have even had guys tell me that I'm too skinny and get called anorexic but I've just learned to ignore them and be thankful that i'm not overweight like some of them!

    Yes, ever since I was in High School I had people either compliment me being skinny or stating that I am too skinny. I have always been thin. Even after three kids I have always lost the weight right away. I am 115/120 pounds. Now being older after popping out those kids, I am PROUD of my size more than ever before. God blessed me with some good genes. I still get the occassional, "your too thin", but I figure that there are a lot of heavier girls out there and they can take their pick. My hubby likes me just the way I am. I'd rather be healthy than unhealthy for my kids. I want to enjoy my great grandkids one day!!

    Just my experience. :)

    I am tiny myself and people joke with me and call me anorexic but I've never been attacked for it. Mostly people point it out as a compliment. It looks to me that maybe you aree a little stuck up and girls probably just say stuff because of that. Not being rude either just telling the truth. I would just tell them that you eat, you're healthy, and your fine the way you are and to tell them to worry about their own weight. Gooood luck L:

    I've been thin all of my life & have never been attacked by plus sized women. I would ignore them if I were you. It seems they're a bit jealous of you.

    i totally get where your coming from. im 5'4 84 pounds and people are just constantly on me about it. like i choose to be this skinny. i actually find myself really gross looking, and whenever i sit down for long periods of times my butt hurts like hell.

    i hate my 90 minute class periods. one time in gym i had to sit on the floor for 90 minutes and i was literally holding back tears my butt hurt so bad. its not fun for me, and i try to gain weight but its not working.

    1. just forget about it!

    2. I understand why they would say mean things to you. You sound stuck up and you think just a little too much of yourself.

    3. I'm not trying to be mean, I'm just telling the truth.
