haha so i might be really blonde for asking this question...?

Question

but can you honestly be "big boned". it sounds stupid but i really dont know lol and dont just guess.. i know theres a medical answer but i'm at work and it wont let me look it up :(

i apologize i didn't mean to be "stereotypical" at all. i didn't mean to be mean or rude... if it offended any of you than i'm sorry. it was just a question.

Answer 1

yes you can, but we all cannot use that excuse because we are a little overweight.. look at people at your work, some people are extremely skinny in the shoulder area and have very small wrists. they are small boned.. now look for the people that have naturally wide shoulders, big hands and wrists... these are the big boned people. they have a bigger wider frame, usually a little taller, and naturally carry more weight... i love blondes... ;)

Answer 2

Yes, some peoples core make up (bones) are just larger than others. Just like any 2 animals of the same breed and litter can be different sizes.

Answer 3

yes, like some people have a small bones. I had a health teacher that told me, if you can put your hand around your rest than you have smaller bones. Thats what she said

Answer 4

yes and i am. for example there is me and my sister. she is small and petite and can fit in like size 0 - 1. she eats just fine and has no really big health problems. and then there is me. i can diet and exersize all i want and starve myself and do whatever i can to be skinny but i will never be able to be smaller then a 4 - 6.

Answer 5

yes there is.

Adj. 1. big-boned - having a bone structure that is massive in contrast with the surrounding flesh
robust - physically strong

Answer 6

OMG....big boned jus means that ur not fat but ur not skinny....ur the inbetween =)

Answer 7

I think you can be thick. Both in the body wise, and your brain. Your question was quite stereotypical, and could be flagged.
