Something a lot of girls want to be, also known as perfection. No matter how thin some girls get, they will never be happy with their weight. The quest for "skinny" causes many problems like anorexia or bulemia. Of course, when thinness comes naturally, the girls who possess it get cocky and let their egos grow bigger than necessary.
To be more exact, to be skinny is to lack fat, bulk or to weigh or appear to weigh less than average. This does not make a person worth less or more!! Word up, kiddies!
"Oh my GOD! I am SO skinny!! Yes, you are skinny too, just not as skinny as me! Oh, I love being skinny! That means I am healthier, prettier and more attractive than you! Go throw up in a toilet, now!"

whether people like it or not, some people are NATURALLY skinny! yes, it is true. and also, just because skinniness comes naturally to some people, NOT ALL of us are cocky about it. its bigger people letting their jealousy get the better of them. just because you have more meat on your bones, it doesn't make you any better than people who aren't as meaty. its about time people stopped spitting thair dummy out and acting like kids in a tantrum when they see someone thinner than they are.
jealous overweight girl- "i hate that there are people in this world thinner than me :( its NOT FAIR!! it makes me feel fat, so instead of us dieting, skinny people should beef up!" um... yeah
