Settle a debate with DH on skeletons and body size!

DH said everyones skeleton is pretty much the same size. I said but everyone has different frames. It started because I was saying that even when I am at my slimmest my waist doesnt get smaller than 30inches, my body frame isnt that small, I am also quite wide on the shoulders, think swimmer type frame. DH said its to do with muscle mass not bone size and if you had 3 men skeletons in a row of same height , they wouldnt really differ from each other even if in real life they were all different frames.

Thoughts? I know this is probably something I should know by now so dont flame me down!!

@CorianderLord

I'd be a bit worried if my skeleton and my 6'0 boyfriends skeleton, or his 6'7 best mates skeleton were all a similar size.

Are they both just wiggling around with extra skin and muscle at the end of their extremities? They must have very good balance to have a whole foot and 3 inches of body with no extra skeleton

No ops dh concedes height varies, just nothing else

I think you are both a bit right - skeletons vary in size, but not as much as you would think looking at the sizes of people! Muscle and fat make up the biggest difference and bones not so much!
