If there's a problem, I would think it would be more with how ridiculously skinny the arms/legs/torsos are, rather than with a lack of secondary sexual characteristics?

But then again I also wouldn't call them "anorexic hookers" in the first place

I think I'm going to try not to think about this secret

[(Anonymous)]

yeah i was just pointing out they're not anorexic so much as not really supposed to be curvy in the first place, the style de-emphasizes secondary sex characteristics to begin with

i dont really see where the hooker thing is coming from

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, I think what I'm trying to get is that like... it's not like it's a binary opposition between anorexic and curvy, where you have to be either one or the other. Anorexic doesn't just mean "not curvy". There are things you could point to as being "anorexic" in their character design (if you wanted to) other than just a lack of curves. They can still be anorexic even taking into account the fact that they're not really supposed to be curvy in the first place.

[(Anonymous)]

sure, i just don't see why that point has to be made.

like all people who suffer from anorexia are not stick skinny, but most of them don't get people saying they "look" anorexic, like OP is saying? i do not believe OP meant that these characters literally suffer from an eating disorder, only that they are figured like sticks aka without curves whatsoever

are you reading curvy as "voluptuous woman"? because i'm not, i mean the opposite of stick figure.

[(Anonymous)]

I guess I'm getting confused about the combination of "curvy" + "preteens"? Like, I'm just not sure what relation you have in mind between those two things?

[(Anonymous)]

preteens generally do not have curves because secondary sex characteristics happen during puberty, even on women with small breasts and narrow hips, and preteens have not gone through puberty so they lack those?

i'm confused @ what's confusing about this

[(Anonymous)]

Because preteens can still have all different types of body shapes and different weights and stuff.

So the confusion is that it seems to me that either you're using "curvy" to specifically mean secondary sexual characteristics, or the fact that the characters are preteens isn't relevant to the discussion. Unless I'm missing something.

i took OP to mean they look "anorexic" because they are all built like stick figures aka straight skinny lines down as opposed to having any semblance of curves. partially due to the art style

i was saying they may look "anorexic" aka built like stick figures because they are pre-teens or young teens i guess. lots of ordinary kids that age look like that, that's just normal. it doesn't have to be "anorexia" or even being particularly skinny.

yes, pre-teens could be overweight but none of the characters these are based on are canonically overweight anyway, so i didn't feel it bore mentioning

[(Anonymous)]

DA but I think you're interpreting it in a weird way. I didn't think it had anything to do with lack of "curves." I think OP meant that the way they are drawn makes OP think they appear unhealthily thin.

I must say I'm quite confused by the fact that you seem to think the only options here are either stick thin, overweight, or "curvy." There are many different weights in between underweight and overweight, and many different body types in between stick skinny and curvy.

[(Anonymous)]

i don't think that? i mentioned overweightness as an aside since the characters all literally do have the same body type, because that's how the original characters are. i also mentioned that the art style does tend toward the stick-like so we're not in disagreement.

i mean i could sit here and list different body types all day if you want, to prove i know they exist because they do? idk how that would help. the broad types in question are 1. ones that look anorexic and 2. ones that do not look anorexic, correct? curvy and visibly overweight are two examples of many different body types that do not look anorexic, that's all.

i dont find they look unhealthily thin considering the age of the characters they're based off of, many normal kids that age look like that because they're right before the big height and weight spurt into adolescence. if you told me they were 18-19, thats a different story.

[(Anonymous)]

Well all you said in your previous comment was that it didn't make sense to criticize their body types because they're pre-teens so can't be curvy, and the characters aren't canonically overweight so can't look fat and obviously there are no other options. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

am i being trolled? can you show me where i said that?

sa

"i was saying they may look "anorexic" aka built like stick figures because they are pre-teens or young teens i guess. lots of ordinary kids that age look like that, that's just normal. it doesn't have to be "anorexia" or even being particularly skinny."

did you mean this???? i was pointing out that there may be a reason for it besides "anorexia." if that's how you interpreted that i see why you're confused... wow. uh, forgive me if i don't continue the conversation, if that's is how this is going to go.

criticize their body types away. hf

[(Anonymous)]

Wow.

i rly think you're being trolled
