To ask about men 5ft 7 and 9 stone?

I’m getting back with my ex - and he mentioned last night he was 9 stone - he’s 5ft 7

i always thought he’s got a gorgeous lean physique but still think this sounds skinny for a man

but he looks fabulous I think 🙌

Any thoughts on these stats ?

Do it in kilograms. It might sound fatter.

Yep I think 9 stone is around 57

You've just said he's lean.

What are you hoping to gain by this post?

Just if people like me think it sounds thin or if people think it actually sounds perfectly reasonable

Unless you are wondering if he has an eating disorder, what does it matter what other people think?

I'm 5ft 9 and 9 stone and on the verge of healthy and underweight for a woman. I would say he is fine if you're looking for someone leaner and shorter.

Sounds like a healthy weight to me - does it matter what the scales indicate if he floats your boat?

Admittedly no

He’s much too short and skinny for me, so you can keep him, thank you for the kind offer though.

Edited

Ok no probs 😃

What thoughts would we have?

Do you think like me it sounds thin for a man

or not particularly
