What is it with people and looks

I'm african and been teased all ma life for being skinny and when I look at the television,skinny is beautiful so m confused...I think I have been misplaced

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Don't mind the jealous haters.
Look at some of the worlds top models Kimora Lee Simmons got bullied so bad at school because she was different
Who wants to look like everyone else, thats just boring.
Find your style and be confident, there will always be someone trying to bring you down x

maby there all jelous of you so they decide to call you names

In the black community some tend to think that being thicker is more attractive. Kind of the opposite for white people.

Not to be racist, but I too have noticed that the thin thing is more pressured on white girls or people who grow up in a mostly white atmosphere.

Maybe its because you are too thin and look kinda anerexic? Its hard to tell without knowing what you actually look like but there is such a thing as too thin.

Well I woudln't worry about it, as long as you're healthy and eating right there's no problem with being skinny. And the color of your skin makes absolutely no difference. Those people are just a little off. Don't focus too much on what they say about you, beautiy is in the eye of the beholder. As long as you're comfortable in your own skin, they can't get to you.
