Not just body conscious the way gawky teenagers are, but to the point anyone outside the media-biased representation of beauty is made to feel unattractive and wrong. It's ridiculous. I sometimes wonder if the hurdle I have to jump over with weight loss (mine is just because I don't want to re-buy my wardrobe, hee!) is this contrary reaction to the "woman must be rail thing with long legs" beauty model foisted on a population of whom 90% cannot dream to achieve.
LOL, sorry. Rant!
If she were 4'11" and a size 8, that might be one thing, but the woman is 5'9". Size 8 is slender.
