I have grown up from all these immature clashes. To stay true to form, its off.

honeric01: Irrelevant.

Darkskin just answered you.

I have better things to read. My question was for you anyother input is irrelevant.

Muki, can you move this thread to fashion please or who ever the MOD is?

Lmao @recent events.

honeric01: She needs your help

Please elaborate.

I'm well Ekt. I know its been quite long. Uni and all. Btw are those your shoulders on your profile?

honeric01: How many people called her fat? is that fat to you? so because some bi-polist people from the UK called her fat, it's not a fact in this discuss?

You said "in africa, you are either fat or skinny", that was your statement, i came in to say, not in Africa, rather say some people in Africa because you don't even know 1% of Africans in person to have arrived at that.

Oh no no. According to the officials of the sporting committee who check the fat percentage of the body of athletics, she is fat because she has more fat that some of the athletics. Not my words and she has no potholes. Lol, I hope you see where I am going with this.

Yes, it was my statement and it is true. Do not tell me what to say or what I should have said because my comment is correct. I.e the famous orbo or lepa t-shirts.

Hi ekt

"Black British athletes are too fat for London Olympics 2012?? World Number 2 Heptathlete Jessica Ennis has been described by officials within UK Athletics as being "too fat". She said: "I have experienced it first hand... and I just think to a certain extent it is very disgraceful. People in positions of authority need to choose their words very carefully when they are bringing up a subject like that".

I saw this on facebook. Honeric, they called her fat. lmaooo

^^Lool, someone was trying to be too big for their boots in my field of expertise.

honeric01: Fit = no port holes anywhere.

You said here in Africa, people don't this, don't that.. meaning Africans don't know the difference or refuses to spot the difference.

quit the long sermon, we know the difference between bodies.

So basically a skinny person can be fit. . .
lool, but I like giving long sermons.
Again you making up your own words as you go along. Stop saying I wrote Africans don't know the difference between body types and I did not say here in Africa, people don't this, don't that. . I know we know body types because I am African and I have given you names but we also like to be simple and just classify in two categories because it makes life easier. . .Rubbish.

Jakumo: Ha ha ha hey don't deny blubber lovers their adventures in Lard-land. Beached whales do, after all, need love, and even if it is a dirty job, somebody's got to do it, though I assume that ordeal wouldn't be your cup of tea ha ha ha.

Oh God, no! I don't even understand how men can be with women with huge bottocks. That must be one hectic job especially from behind so imagine someone huge from all sides.

honeric01: I really don't have time to go into long sermon, can you call athletes slim? they are not slim neither are they fat.
Models are skinny
Sumo fighters are fat
Female boxers (some of them) are thick, same with most tennis players
Gymnastics are slim

All these orobo or lepa was crafted out from the yeye Nigerian mentality just like how some people automatically tag you an omo Igbo if you don't speak their language or you tell them you're not from their region.

By and by, the fact that some people call you fat or slim does not mean they are right, the shape of women aren't to be classified into these 2 bla bla bla and i repeat that we have up to 6, not the kinda "names" you are putting up.

I repeat again, i am an African and i do not classify women's shape into 2 groups, so that your statement about Africans not knowing a fit, thick, slim, skinny, fat and chubby shape is wrong.

Your brain read my comment wrong. Nowhere have I wrote Africans do not know that there are inbetweens from bony thin and obscenely large. I have explained twice and I am not repeating myself. Since you wanted to act like MR. Know it all 'because I do not read people's comment' and broke down your version of the types of body there are and you came up with 'chubby'. Where in this world has a doctor asked you "well my dare, are u thick, chubby or fat?" What the hell. Thick and chubby is what Girls use when they are in denial that they look like a beached whale. Weightlifters are not classified as thick, its only the street term when someone sees them. They are classified as Mesomorphs. Ofcourse, a fat person would see anyone smaller than them skinny bt as long as you don't have body fat that makes you look like Lard and you have long limbs then you are lean. I mean you do not see a girl on the street with round body n round face and go "well, lady you a little bit chubby around edges ain't you. All you need now is a burger to fatsville". No, you don't because its Fat! I see you put fit in describing a type of body? So you are telling you cannot be fit if you are skinny(assumingly bony with no ass n bosoms) and slim(assumingly bony with ass and bosoms)? Fit is another different body category? *tears hair out* please stop! Btw, yes athletics can be slim. I mean I use to be a top runner in high school and did not need veins popping out of my head and neck or look like a man just to be called athletic.

tashanja: A tall lepa any day any time: if thick/fat women are all that; then the multimillion dollar advertising industry must have gotten it wrong to put all their trust and investment in the image of slim sexy women to sell products worldwide, and of course a great number of women wouldn't be killing themselves dieting; lets face it, slim is universally the preferred norm.

Hear, hear!!!

honeric01: Nah, her opinion does not make it correct, according to who?



This is VERY WRONG, why not learn to speak for yourself? how many Africans do you think for? women have more than 6 types of body structures, i am an African and i know this, so have you seen that you are wrong?

Honeric, please when did you learn that woman have 6 different type of body structures?! Is it in magazines or when you were trying to lose weight yourself? I am not wrong, in fact, I am absolutely right. A person with a small percentage of fat on his or her body(minus body builder) will not go to Africa and get called 'athletic'? When you have artists painting Orobo or lepa on their t-shirts do you see any in betweens? No! you are either orobo or lepa. It does not mean many don't know that there are different body types are. Btw 6? you are talking about the hourglass, pear shaped and all the rubbish used to find clothing that fits them. We are talking about build here and if you want to go into that then there are 3 types of body builds. Ectomorphs, Mesomorph and Endomorph somtimes we can have a blend of each and in each body build we have the structural shape. I.e pear shape, hourglass etc. Thank you!

gemstone22: Even the guys on this thread are claiming to have had babies and remained skinny. Lol....

who claimed such atrocities?! lool

safarigirl: My first post was a comment on being 'skinny' not 'slim'. Two totally different terms, if my post was misleading though, apologies.

You have to understand to Africans, you are either skinny or fat no in betweens i.e skinny, slim, atlethic, thick, bigboned, round, fat? Non of that.

Whether you are bony, slim as long as you are not round like an oompa loompa or u can bend down and touch your toes because your bottocks and bosoms aren't too heavy then you are skinny.

ramalot: I have not seen this ad of which u speak, but from your description, i think it is a very effective ad (at least on paper).
Not all expressions have to be 'in ur face- "the ogbonge milik wey mama, papa, pikin dem dey enjoy" gban! gban!! didi gban!!! type ads.

Ads with abstract deliveries are quite effective. In this particular one, the correlation between what you do with the 'time' from life to death
and the product being a time piece - in my opinion is brilliant.

I think that's the point the advert is trying to bring forth. . .

gemstone22: Slim girls are not the bomb. Trust me, I know caused I have walked that road before. Flat chest, no visible ass. Right now, I love having boobs to flaunt and ass to fill up my pencil jeans. Its great to have some meat on you.
Btw, most slim girls get fat when they start making babies. If u marry a girl because she is slim, u might be shocked at the surprise u will get when the babies start rolling in.

Wow!! I can definitely tell you that is untrue. Yes, there are some skinny girls without breast or ass but many skinny black girls have the right curves(bottom and bosom with small waist). And getting fat after birth? Yes, everyone puts on weight during pregnancy but come on! We all know a fat girl or as they like to call themselves(thick girls, please!) get way enormous than a skinny girl would(so I would recommend getting a small girl instead of big) and as for me I don't need to worry about losing my pregnancy weight because we always easily *american accent* drop it like that.

There is a difference between a fat girl that use to be skinny(one burger and say bye bye to being small) and been naturally skinny(eat as much burgers as you like and you will still look awesome)

lool...

Some of us are just blessed with the perfect body!
