Is a 5 foot 5 165 pound chick fat?

It just occurred to me how absurd it is to expect anyone to post pics of themselves in certain positions or whatever on some random corner of the internet "to prove they're real" when none of us have done anything that even resembles that "to prove we are real"

Seems like an overkill reaction, regardless of if she is legit or not. No reason for it.

Yep. Why would I bother going through all the trouble of writing crap on my stomach with a magic marker or making a sign to prove something one way or another to a bunch of anonymous people I could not care less whether they believe me or not? Given the somewhat precipitous drop in the activity on this board you would think people wouldn't be so quick to drive away potential new posters.
 
While there are trolls on the internet, there are also 'troll police', which tend to be people that live in constant fear of being a victim of a deceptive story/post on the internet. Being a 'victim' might somehow break their fragile state, so they are usually the first to suggest one could be a troll.

I don't think Achoo is a troll. She proved what she set out to do, and that's to show 5'5" and 165 may not only be 'not fat', but very attractive. I agree with Fantatical, no need to degrade the thread, and more power to Achoo.
 
Hahaha. I wasn't asking for anything. What's it matter if I'm real? Like if I weighed 158 instead of 165? Or... Ok, I'm so confused. What do trolls get out of posting pictures? Of someone else is what I'm assuming the question is? Dude, I work in fast food and drive a GMC. I'm as legit as they come. Well, I guess they could come more legit, but I honestly just googled my height n weight to find a calorie calculator. Turns out I should be eating 1739 calories a day. FYI.

well, that was a joke that I only imagine a handful of people noticed (play on words requirement!). But yeah...who was that, Anarchist? I wonder where that guy is? He was legitimately sick, though. I hope he's doing well.
 
Yes, even 146 is heavy. No offense.
My rule-of-thumb indicator of fatness is thighs rubbing together.

A troll is a member who posts provocatively in the hopes of stirring up drama, outrage, hilarity, etc. Members with longstanding would do this under alternate (alt) accounts to evade any repercussions thereof. People around here get suspicious they are being gamed when newbies show up posting attention grabbing stuff.

I tend to believe people are who they say they are, especially when they furnish pics.

My thighs definitely touch. I still don't think I'm fat. I have thick legs from playing soccer and running, and I don't miss any meals. I do tons of squats and they still touch. I'm content with it.
I wouldn't mind losing a few inches from my waist but I haven't had a thigh gap since... Well... Nope never have.

😵 really?

Are you an Azn dude or something that requires 5'2" girls that weigh about 73 lbs to kinda match you?

The guy I'm dating is like that. He likes tiny girls - which I'm not. He flips me shit all the time and kinda even fucks with my head about what I eat. Really though I know he's 5'7 160, very muscular but very small guy. I think he really just longs to feel big and masculine. He's never really dated anyone as big as me, they've all be 100-110 lb girls. He likes my butt tho which is something a tiny girl doesn't have

shit, you need to get rid of that dude. But put him in an arm bar and make him submit before you leave, though.

There are trolls, and there is ignorance. If you measure a certain "thigh gap", that is a body type and can have absolutely no indication of body fat. There is a such thing as muscle, and women, just like men, can have more of it from either genetics or activities, or both, without having to be fat. I think when people come up with these ridiculous 'rules', they just show how shallow they are and how little credibility they have. As for what a troll is, I doubt you are one, but wow, ignorance is off the charts lol.

Nah. I'm not bothered by it. It's his insecurity, not mine. If it were really me he disliked, he wouldn't be with me. Its like being with someone jealous. He thinks its getting him somewhere.

Me too his last post was something like I've been seeing a new Dr and I've decided internet stuff isn't good for my compulsiveness' or something similar.
I imagine he's a nice guy when he's controlling his disability.

You likely will be, because you're likely on a tight leash, mentally. Since you're more athletic/muscular than he is used to and already picks on you (even when you appear to be very lean at 165), what about when you gain weight? People tend to workout in cycles, and when you're not working out as much, you will likely add body fat and weight, and then possibly get condemned for it.

Just sayin...us guys know how to be dicks and as a result can spot them from a distance. 😉 Ultimately, someone needs to be very comfortable with the body type that their SO has, and if it gets hotter over time, great...if it doesn't, and goes in the other direction, there has to be room to still appreciate and accept the person without condemning them for it. If that's not there, you're probably with 'mr. right now' and not necessarily 'mr. right.' You're very healthy, and if you still get sh!t for it, then you deserve better imo.
