This is not a myth, there are three types of body frame sizes: small, medium, and large of course. The reason for this is that obviously bone structures vary in size and density from person to person. Obviously men and women have different structures. Bone mass and muscle mass all play a part in determining your optimal weight. You can check this yourself by measuring the circumference of your wrist or measuring the breadth of your elbow. This is a little more complex but provides a greater results range for the purposes of accuracy.
In order to test yourself follow these steps:
Elbow: Stand up. Extend your arm forward so that it is horizontal and parallel to the ground. Turn your hand so your palm is uppermost. Bend your elbow so your forearm is at 90º to the ground. Use the forefinger and thumb of your other hand to locate the narrow part of your elbow joint. Use your same forefinger and thumb as a gage to determine your elbow breadth by measuring the gap between them with with a ruler or tape measure.
I have included a link that you can go to and see a table of measurements for females and males for your own determination.

I don't know but I do know if I float vertically in water and exhale I sink whereas two of my friends float so I must have a higher density. Could be big bones.

Yes you do have big bones but you have lots of meat on them aswell and ontop of this between the meat and the skin there is lots and lots of fat so your mum is not telling you the whole truth.

No such thing as big bones... But be content and don't let other people tell you what you should do, be or look like. If you are happy with yourself it shows.....................
