i gotta talk to yāall about something.
i keep a massiveĀ ābmiā file. it has pics and gifs of models, ppls body checks, actresses, any time i see a pic that provides me the personās measurements i save it. and i save all types: i have pics from ppl with bmis from ~13 to over 42. i currently have around 700 pictures.
i mostly do it bc i like to have a point of reference. i want to know what that bmi looks like, since just saying the number doesnāt really help me visualize it. i always add the bmi, the name of the person i took the pic from, their height, and their weight. i also add what weight i should have to achieve that bmi, bc i am that girl.
some interesting (at least to me) stuff i noticed:
most popular tumblr userās pics are between bmis of 17.1 and 17.8. those pics get the most notes.
another popular body type lies between 18.0 and 18.5.
ppl also love 16.4 to 16.9.
gifs are 1000x more popular than pics and your average gif always seems to get >5x more notes than popular pics.
everybody is different!!! ofc i cant be sure the person isnāt lying about their stats but honest to god, i see ppl with bmis ~19s that look skinnier (in my eyes) than ppl with bmis ~16. and not justĀ āone or two pplā, it happens quite a bit.
a muscular ~16 looks a billion times skinnier than a soft ~16. the difference is unbelievable.
honest to god i feel like thereās not a lot of change once you reach 16.5 or so. literally i feel like even 13s look similar to 16.5s. plenty of 16s look thinner than 14s imo.
after reviewing the files i reached the conclusion that my personal taste is the best look is at the 18s. people look really hot by then, curvy but still thin. after 17.5 or so it starts going more towardsĀ āobviously sickā, which i find pretty as well but not as much as the hot bods. thats my personal opinion though.
breasts are almost universally gone by ~16. no one at that range looks bigger than a b cup (obv i cant tell for sure).
thinspics of theĀ āupper arm braceletā start showing up at high 16s.
prominent rib pics show up at around 19 sucking in and become really visible at 17.5 or so.
prominent hipbones without forcing are p much universal at low 15s, though a LOT of people have them at ~17. that seems to be the tougher milestone to reach.
i once wrote a post on what bmi ppl usually get their thigh gap and i was clearly damn right bc i see huge gaps at 20.5 and really small ones even at ~17.3. average is 19.5 or so, though.
