I see skinny guys all the time in Kenya and Ethiopia, even Cambodia. It's fun to bolt a C shaped piece of steel into their back and throw them over cliffs with your friends.
I used to be 6'-3" and 170 lbs. NOT ANY MORE DAMN IT!
235 lbs and 9-10% BF.
I used to hate being called skinny in the worst way. Hated it even more when short/fat guys were dubbed "stocky" or "stout". Fuck that, they are FAT.
Now I am a head taller and more muscular/"bigger", SO HAAAAA FUCKING HAAAA
Rizzo - Right there with you man. Until about 3 years ago, I was 170-175 lbs at 6'2". It worked in high school for track. I must have had 5% bf then. Now I'm 195 lbs and still gaining (getting bf done today, probably around 10). Feels good to have some meat on my bones and most people wouldn't consider me "skinny" anymore, but I still do. I'm shooting for 210-215 by this Jan.
One of the biggest insults to me is when someone descibed me as lanky. I hate that fucking word. And the short/stocky guys, FAT FAT FAT.
