Everyone's perception on beauty is different and therefore there is no perfect because perfection can't be reached. Though there are stereotypical images of what beauty is and that is what people try to achieve. Now I am not going to lie I am thin by natural causes but I do not think I am beautiful I actually wish to be fatter. Many would think this is selfish and I should not talk because I have a perfect body. That is not true. Lets take a peek into what it is like to be stuck as a thin person by natural causes.
1. Body Type:
For most women and girls there are two things guys like the most the butt and the breasts but when you are naturally thin you don't really get a choice and get those so your self-confidence can be low. You don't fit in when all the other girls are going through different stages with their bodies. My body does not look like a seventeen girl going on eighteen it is more like a twelve or thirteen year old girl. I get looked down on and I don't fit in. So overall when you do not have much fat naturally it can be hard. There are many cases when my body could not do certain things. When I get into a pool and if it is too cold I can easily get hypothermia. If I was stuck in a cave with no food then I would die first because when you body starts to break down it first attacks your fat to give you food for me it would just eat me alive. So you see being thin is not all that great. 
2. Mentality
Ever since I was little I got nicknames such as 'stick', 'daddy longlegs', 'anorxic' and to tell you the truth it hurt. I was bullied but I think everyone has been in some way whether it is at school or home. Though I was bullied because I had the 'idea body' but many people didn't understand. When I heard what people said behind my back I became smaller and smaller I started to look at myself in disgust and only say garbage. It went on for some years and then I was labeled the 'freak' my social abilities went down rather low and I began not to talk to almost anyone. Friends weren't something I wanted because they would stab me in the back. I had fellow students going up to the teachers and telling them that I needed help as I was so thin. I would always get really embarssed and the teacher would just shake their head. I wasn't anorixic or bulemic I am just thin. So in my mind I always thought I was disgusting and sometime it comes back again but I have grown.
3. Image
So really all those models I very rarely find them beautiful unless they are healthy looking. I envy those that have curves because I will never be able to achieve that look. No matter what I do I can't be beautiful in that way so I have to deal with being a stick. I hear people saying "I want to be thin." and when I hear that I sometimes will confront them and ask if they want to be this thin and look many years younger so that you are looked down upon, while not ever being able to fit in with your peers. Now their answer is no but some, those that are too obssessed with images, still say yes. I have gotten more fat on me seeing as before I would have been a perfect study for the bones in the body. People can count my ribs, see the some of the bones in my arms and shoulders but I am trying to change that and I have succeded somewhat.

So take it from a girl that has always been thin it isn't fun really. You should just be happy that you have the option of being medium, thin or fat. If you really wanted to you could probably achieve any of these. I can't. I can ice cream all day and not gain much. So you see it really isn't worth being this thin when all it does is bring misery.

To become happier in many ways and see if I can help more people while just being myself.
