@sherahamitov hey <3, this term has been playing on my mind for a while. I am sure you don’t mean it in a bad way but I really don’t think that the term ‘skinny legend’ is very helpful at this moment in time culturally. for me it plays into something that makes me feel uncomfortable endorsing. I have always prided myself on being toned, strong and grounded physically, not skinny or thin. as an athlete, it’s just not a reflection of my body goal or type and it makes me feel sad when I am called that. all body shapes are beautiful and the focus should be on being healthy in the skin that you are in. skinny legend represents the anthesis of that for me. 
in conclusion for me when I focus on being skinny I feel off and when I focus on being strong and reaching personal physical goals my body anddd mind looks and feels healthy and beautiful.
I hope you understand where I am coming from and why that term feels problematic to me.

I am also totally open to your opinion on this <3

maybe she should learn that it's not that serious. it's not meant as in actually "skinny"

Wow she spilt. I really like how she acknowledged that people mean it in a positive light because I think a lot of the time when people complain about the term, the people who use it don’t really take notice because they mean no harm and use it as a term of endearment. This is very classy of her :flutter:

Jeez we can't say **** now lol. It barely means 'skinny' anymore, it's a term like 'queen', which doesn't mean literally someone is a queen either...

I don't even use it but I know it isn't serious
