Where there's no definition between Calf and Ankle.

VivaLeBeaver · 09/11/2010 18:23

Cankles are where calves and ankles merge into one with no real thinning of the ankle. So even though Cole is skinny she does have cankles. Its the proportions.

Danni looks amazing in that photo.

LivinInThe80s · 09/11/2010 18:24

I have cankles too so I sympathise with Cheryl but I still don't think she is all that.

MooMoo - cankles are when you basically have no defined ankle, ie your calves merge into your ankles!

LivinInThe80s · 09/11/2010 18:25

Viva - you beat me to it!

thighsmadeofcheddar · 09/11/2010 18:36

No real opinion on the cankles, but god her home dye job hair is awful.

Hmm
AnyFucker · 09/11/2010 19:52

cankles

an amalgamation of "thick" and "ankles" if you say it quickly Grin

UnquietDad · 09/11/2010 19:57

Unquietdad, are you going street style on our asses? Shock Grin

UnquietDad · 10/11/2010 09:52

Yo.

MooMooFarm · 10/11/2010 13:43

But I still don't understand how clankles can apply to someone of very skinny proportions Confused

If somebody is so skinny that they have tiny skinny legs all the way up, then how can their ankles have much definition from their calves? Surely their ankles would then have to be thinner than an ankle bone could ever be?

I would have thought a 'clankle' can only apply when the whole leg isn't skinny? For example - if my ankles were no thinner than my calves - that would be a right clankley - clankle!

AnyFucker · 10/11/2010 14:16

moo...it's "cankles", not "clankles" Grin

it is a recognized, treatable condition according to the daily mail Hmm

now look at this picture <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=www.kickette.com/files/2010/01/july28cherylxfactor_thumb.jpg&imgrefurl=www.kickette.com/style-off-cheryl-cole-vs-her-stylist/&h=875&w=500&sz=82&tbnid=Ud381d-WM1tAxM:&tbnh=146&tbnw=83&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dcheryl%2Bcole%2Bcankles&zoom=1&q=cheryl+cole+cankles&hl=en-GB&usg=__fXASfkAbTXfe2ipHrkGmdLFbyc8=&sa=X&ei=najaTNiLJJK1hAe3xLDPAg&ved=0CCIQ9QEwAw" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">here

as gorgeous as Saint Mother Theresa Cheryl undoubtedly is, it is possible to be skinny and have cankles...it's about the proportion of thigh size to calf and zero definition in ankle shape

it tends to make her look like she has pig's trotters for feet too Wink

CerealOffender · 10/11/2010 14:19

do you think kylie sits at home on a saturday night throwing empty tinnies at the tv slurring 'it should have been me! ME!'

AnyFucker · 10/11/2010 14:20

christ almighty, remember this ill-advised money-grubbing ?

CerealOffender · 10/11/2010 14:21

she does have unfeasibly dewy eyes, like she is a disney cartoon always on teh verge of tears

CerealOffender · 10/11/2010 14:21

love that link af

UnquietDad · 10/11/2010 14:23

URGH! Did you have to inflict Trashley's ugly mug on us, when most of us have managed to forget that she was ever married to that piece of shit?

woolymindy · 10/11/2010 14:26

I don't mind Cherly Tweety as we call her here at Mindy Towers - but really AF that last picture is fucking frightful - what a dreadful dreadful pair - and he is showing his belly button, how completely revolting

I do not have cankles even though I have fairly buddahesque proportions. However, I would swap a pair of cankles for a pair of tits that stay up on their own

MooMooFarm · 10/11/2010 14:36

Thanks for clarifying AF - although I think 'clankles' is a much meatier word than 'cankles' Blush

SleepingLion · 10/11/2010 14:43

Personally, I miss Chezza's glory days - a particularly superb example here

Oh Cheryl, how you must hate the internet and the way some style faux pas can never be eradicated Grin

AnyFucker · 10/11/2010 14:52

great pic, sleeping

I think that is the true Cheryl

Trashley and Cashley....oh a marriage made in heaven

all this gloss and hype?...just smoke and mirrors

shall I link to the infamous racist attack on a black woman just trying to do her job in a public toilet ? nah...it might make UQD cry Grin

AnyFucker · 10/11/2010 14:53

I have a touch of the canklage myself actually, although I am 5ft 10 and have skinny legs.

I don't have pig's trotters though

But nor do I have dewy eyes < sigh >

SleepingLion · 10/11/2010 14:57

AF, shush - UQD is currently trying to decide whether he is more attracted to the braids, the thong or the tramp stamp - or whether it is simply the whole package which makes her so dreamy...
