My friend & I disagree about Gwyneth..

With apologies for DM link..

I think she looks amazing, toned, fit and this is would be how I would love to look (need to drop a stone!)
My friend, however, thinks she looks like a '10 year old boy'!

Just out of interest op, what is your mate's figure like?

TheBolter · 25/02/2011 10:11

Amen Mobly - why can't we just embrace each other's differences?

MollysChambers · 25/02/2011 10:17

Well done Mobly.

Can't stand it when women slag off other women for being flat chested. Natural boobs come in all shapes and sizes. Unbelievably bitchy.

Gwynneth looks fit and healthy to me.

thenightsky · 25/02/2011 10:18

She looks fit and athletic I think.

Agree with everyone else about her straw hair though.

Fleecy · 25/02/2011 10:27

I think she looks very toned and she's obviously naturally slender but not to that degree and I think that's the problem. If she's working out 3hrs a day and only eating one meal then that's not her natural shape.

BalloonSlayer · 28/02/2011 10:08

I think she looks great and how nice to see someone who hasn't had implants.

I think small breasts look lovely - I think that especially now I am older, and wistfully compare the lovely small breasts I had in my youth with the matronly Bazooooom I have now.

There are so many "celebs" who are a hell of a lot thinner than Gwyneth Paltrow but, due to having a couple of bags of silicone shoved under their skin, manage to avoid being labelled too thin.

glovesoflove · 28/02/2011 10:18

Agree that Gwyneth has a lovely figure. I don't think she's too thin and no way does she look like a boy!

I'd be surprised if she "starves herself", her legs are gorgeous and surely she couldn't look so nice if she were undernourished?

glovesoflove · 28/02/2011 10:21

Oh, meant to say that I too commend her for not getting fake tits, and she looks all the better for it.

piratecat · 28/02/2011 10:25

Toned yes, but imo far too skinny with it.

AbsDuCroissant · 28/02/2011 15:42

I think she looks okay.

Sidge · 28/02/2011 16:33

I think her lower half looks fab - very slim and toned (I wish I had legs like that!) However her upper body is quite bony, nothing to do with her small boobs but more that her ribs and sternum are so prominent.

traceybath · 28/02/2011 16:39

I think she looks fab. She clearly works hard to look that good and has the resources to do so.

fuzzywuzzy · 28/02/2011 16:41

Why does her stomach look so gorgeously toned after two kids, when mine looks like an deflated balloon

I'm skinny too.......and errr toned(is), ocassionally

But my stomach has not looked like that since pre kids....

ValiumSingleton · 28/02/2011 20:26

balloon, have your breasts got bigger since having children? i thought that the norm was for them to get smaller. mine did. I couldn't really afford to go smaller......

flippinpeedoff · 28/02/2011 20:31

Well she's got much much bigger tits than me.

I think she looks good, not too thin.

traceybath · 28/02/2011 20:37

Fuzzy - she does a lot of exercise with a personal trainer - and lets not forget she is naturally pretty, tall and slender.

Meglet · 28/02/2011 20:58

I like the lack of breast implants. If she had implants I don't think we'd bat an eyelid.

ValiumSingleton · 28/02/2011 22:08

she may have had them. I mean, my breasts have practically disappeared! and if I were to lose more weight to be as thin as gwyneth, there would be nothing at all left.,so it's possible gwyneth had 'b' cup implants.

privategodfrey · 28/02/2011 22:16

I don't think she looks especially toned in those pictures but that could be the camera angle. There's just something a bit scrawny looking about her.

Now Kim Kardashian - wow - she has a fantastic figure, goes in and out in all the right places.

privategodfrey · 28/02/2011 22:21

It wasn't the camera angle - it was the angle I had my laptop screen at!

Yes she does look toned, but not super-skinny.

I'd still prefer to look like KK though. Beautiful face and curves to die for.

BalloonSlayer · 28/02/2011 22:23

Well I am still BF, Valium so that's partly an explanation but the main explanation is that I am fatter!

I know it's possible to be very slim with naturally large breasts but it is unusual. Unfortunately young girls now see so many celebs with implants they think the skinny body/big tits is normal, and something they MUST have or they are some sort of a failure.

I think that a toned slender body with small breasts is very youthful because in MY day all young slim girls did have small breasts.

GetOrfMoiLand · 28/02/2011 22:30

I think she looks great - fit and toned and certainly not too thin.

I have a similar build, thin with small breasts. Nowt wrong with that.

In answer to your question, Mobly, my friend is v large, gorgeous though.

I agree with balloonslayer that a slender body with small breasts is very youthful.

Have been googling pictures of Gwynnie throughout the Oscar years, and she does have tiny boobs.
Weepy Oscar year
Gwynnie in 2002

at GOML's build

oohlaalaa · 18/04/2011 16:08

I think she looks great too.
