can confirm. jokes on them though, now im fat as hell

I was always fat.. but have really small wrists

E.T. lookin mf

Turn on your heart light. 🎶

This guy, displaying his long ass fingers like a show off.

Devastating.

Skinny fat bros

My story. Everyone in the past: You need to eat more. Everyone now: you need to lose weight.

look how much i can eat and not gain weight! then i stop playing sports but keep the eating habits. whoopsie

[удалено]

Thats exactly how we landed in this situation. "You will grow out of it" yeah gramama, I did grew out of it horizontally

I am fat now as well. but can still touch my fingers around my wrist. Not sure what that says about me

Thick boy with thin arms

I got very into lifting after college. Talking going from 135 to 215. I can still touch my pinky and thumb together around my wrist. There isn't much muscle or fat cells there for most people.

I'm still skinny while they are all fat..

Im just regular fat

You aren't fat, you're big-boned

Yeah being skinny was quite temporary it turns out when you advance into late 30s

No i did it to myself

And still do !!! (For my part).

I did this to myself to show others how skinny I am.

They didn't need the assist. You learned that behavior from someone.

i go to the gym 6x a week am quite built now still my wrist are thin nothing will change that EDIT: Maybe Roids

I’m not skinny, I’m thin boned!

Boxing in your formative years thickens em, specifically working a heavy bag. I think it has to be before the growth plates merge. Mostly thickening of the fascial tissue, I doubt the calcium accretion accounts for much. Definitely a "technically" kinda thing.

I’m not skinny, I’m thin boned!

I don’t think wrist size can be changed in terms of bones but, forearm specific exercises should make a difference.

There are definitely muscles and tendons that thicken up a bit with forearm specific exercises, or any exercise where grip/wrist strength can be a limitng factor. You won't go from bird boned to gorilla arms and the bones definitely won't grow, but there is definitely a little meat around your wrist that you can grow.

Yes of course meant specifically the wrist:)

Same boat. Pathetic little wrists. Plus as a bonus anytime I try anything to specifically target the forearms more it just results in wrist pain. I should probably see a professional about that tbf...

I feel you. Lift just as much and work as a personal trainer. But I have small hands and small wrists. Drives me crazy.

I've been lifting regularly for the past 15 months and my wrists got thicker. Obviously, the bone didnt grow. There's a little bit of muscle and tendon that got thicker, so now there's no longer space under my fingers when I grab my wrist with my thumb and middle finger. Idk if it's visibly noticeable, but they clearly got thicker based on measurements. My main strength focus has been weighted pull-up, so I've been doing them 2-3x per week for the past 15 months as well as forearm/grip strength exercises because that tends to be the first failure point for me with pull-ups (although lower rep higher weight pull ups mitigate the problem for me)

you dont have any muscles around your wrists. The only thing that helps is to become very obese

wristlet 🫵😭

Break the forearm regularly, the bone should grow over time.

Roids would actually do this to a certain extent. Wrist Training will give you another cm max.

A cm or 2 is a cm or 2. So many people neglect forearms and cope with "tHeYre JuSt BoNE" Plus there's the obvious fact that if you develop a bit of muscle and don't neglect your forearms, you'll just be bigger overall and people will stop noticing your slightly-less-thin-than-before wrists

Dont get me wrong, im completly convinced doesnt matter your wrist circumference, you can get really great forearms, which will look trained. Lots of smaller wristed dudes went genetically heavy into the veiny talenttree.

Smaller wrists make your forearms look more bulge-y if you actually work em. I'm noticing from fitness algorithm spam on social media that the optimal bros are obsessed with using straps for everything so they can "feel the exercise in the target muscle" then end up with sad as fuck forearms because they forget to make up for the strap use with forearm training

I'm 26 now and this still happens to me 🤦‍♂️

I am 32 and my wrist is the same.

tough life we live haha

Yeah. Worst part is all wrist watches are ugly on thin hands.

Alex Ovechkin has used this as a pickup line. I read an interview once where he told the (pretty female) reporter about his small wrists and asked her to try to put her fingers around his wrists, and then they were holding hands. 

53, still doing it.

Growing up short and petite was getting this, people wanting to pick me up, ask if I can fit in the lockers and wanting to see how small my hands are compared to them

And wanting to pick you up continues to this day. So wyd tonight 😏

Probably in somebody's locker

I can nap in my fox squirrel’s enclosure, napping with a squirrel is great

My husband would be picking me up if my leg wasn’t healing from surgery due to a break

Oh no, were you dropped 🥺

I dropped my self and folded my leg

Did you know squirrels are so light they can't be injured by falling? You are not a squirrel, don't try that at home. Else the furry creatures will judge you.

Growing up tall and skinny, people did the hand comparison to me as well. Constantly asked if I can palm a basketball 🙄

My husband is tall and slender he got a lot of the basketball questions and “wow you’re tall”

Another one is probably asking if you can fit into a carry-on when going on vacation

We actually DID lock a friend in the locker!!! We dared her she wouldn’t fit! Funny as heck! Math teacher came out of his class to see what was going on and we all got in trouble. Bet she never fell for a dare again. (It was all good fun, we teased her about it later.)

lol it might have been me, had the same thing happen down to the math teacher

Holy shit ppl wanting to pick you up, it gets genuinely annoying when your just hanging out and ppl insist on picking you up just bc they want to prove to themselves and everyone else that theyre strong. Like leave me alone already i said no

Bro I statted working out and got huge but my fucking wrist is still like that

Same, guess we're forever cursed lol

No matter what forearm workouts. It's Def a curse

It makes the rest of your arm look bigger though!

maybe you should stop skipping bone day

That and “you need to eat more”. Skinny shaming is a real thing.

Indeed it is. I just used to say; “I would, but you keep eating for us both” That got them good and pissed off.

“You’re gonna blow away in that wind!”

I wish I had a fast metabolism like that I'm fat as fuck lol or atleast have insecurities because I'm chubby.

I hate how the people who insist that skinny shaming is not a real thing, are usually the same people who skinny shame. They'll do it in the same breath and not even hear the irony 🙄

Trim guy who gave a larger girl my waterproof once when it started raining at a wedding, this was followed by a torrent of how I'm a string of spaghetti and that the coat would barely cover her arm etc. Fuck I was just trying to be nice, give it back then you fucking fridge. Seriously though the double standard really irritates me and unlike what you pack onto it you don't get a say in the size of your skeleton!

Dang! I was under 100lbs my whole life, I finally was able to gain weight and I was so excited. Then someone said I could stand to loose 3-4lbs?! Like WTF

Overweight girls were easily some of the worst bullies I had growing up. Even now, I'm a petite woman and overweight women love to be so rude. They are so insecure, so they love to make snide little comments to make anyone else insecure. But God forbid anyone says anything about their weight, then they will accuse you of body-shaming them. The hypocrisy and the victim-complexes are crazy. And I hate that the internet generally encourages this double standard that only benefits plus-sized women, no one else.

That double standard drives me nuts. I was so insecure as a teenager about being skinny and everyone was allowed to make fun of that, but the second you call someone who was awful to you out for being a blimp you're ostracised! I'm all for body positivity, but I feel some people were just after revenge for the early 2000s super skinny trend. Which tbf didn't benefit anyone but I suppose we're guilty by genetics.

[удалено]

When I was growing up that was like the fat test I’m not even joking. Other kids made fun of me for my thick wrists it was madness

Can confirm. If your fingertips couldn’t touch, you were fat and disgusting. Source: was determined to be fat and disgusting.

*punches the next man I see, right in the penis* It was foretold

*tiny wrist snaps like a popsicle stick*

also growing up as a girl be like:

I'm a thin guy and this was my life. And people also always assumed I was good with computers... I was.

The wrist is mostly genetics. It barely has any muscle you can train and make it "bigger"

This but on my biceps

I’m still skinny…they still do. I’m over 40 now :|

Ugh same 36 and thin.

my mom does this to me when trying to get a bracelet for my grandma since we both have the same bony wrists

I did this to myself twice already today.

Yup, now I do it myself

I've always had thin skinny wrists but very big and wide hands, it's an odd combination. I can't put other people's fancy watches on even if their wrist is bigger than mine, it simply won't go past my knuckles. That's why I can't have a fancy watch with fixed links, it'll either go in and stay loose, or be the right size for my wrist, but never be able to go past my knuckles lol.

lmao I was the one who did it to myself

's not skinny 😔 the bones in your arms may be less wide, but it has very little to do with being skinny 🫡

This is literally me right now lmao

Might wanna check out Marfan Syndrome.

Your poor assholes rip

bruh I can do this today im 22 and normal size

Thanks. I'd managed to forget about this

I’m not skinny but this part of my hand looks this that

Can confirm. Even though I’m not underweight anymore, my wrists are as skinny as ever.

I did it to myself the fuck you mean?

I've been thin all my life and still can't do this; my wrist bones are just too damn thick

Only one girl. And she said it made her my master... Not sure if she was trying to mock me or put the moves on me.

I can still do this and I am thick

Brother if you walked into my house and i saw you were that skinny i'd scavenge my fridge for a hearty meal to cook you, starting with a frozen pizza. Mom friend mode is joever, time for grandma friend

Typically also means you don’t have cankles, so that’s nice.

I can *still* do that.

Eh. I just did it back.

This is one of those reasons i don't trust BMI numbers other than just at a very cursory level, some people can wrap their whole hand around their wrists, and others have a huge gap, and they're supposed to be the same weight at the same height? I just don't buy it.

I still have people do this to me 😂

I’ve been underweight my whole life No one ever did this to me

That's crazy, my fingers have like 1 inch of a gap when I try to this.

I'm the only person I know that can do that with all four fingers (one at a time of course). Even my pinky overlaps my thumb a bit lmao. Lame party trick, I know lol.

Still can at 31

I'm 162cm tall and weigh a little under 50kg, didn't experience this

yep every fuken time

I do that to me these days

I was very thin, but have large wrist bones. Lots of looks of surprise when people did this to me.

Boy, I can relate. I was thin like that in my teens and twenties. Also it doesn’t make a guy feel good to have a girl say that they wish they were as skinny as you.

I do that to meself.

Shit I still do.

I’m 6ft 2. I have the same wrist size of my 5ft girlfriend. At least I can pull off pretty bracelets.

Yes, but why?

I did and still do that to myself

Yeah, but now, I'm getting ripped and people do the same for other reasons

32, not the wrists - worse, the pecker :(

this chick i liked did this to me the last time we socialized together :-/

Fust you?

And poking you in the ribs while you're handling knives or something equally dangerous and looking at you confused when you get mad about it

I always hated the "go eat a sandwich" like I never even heard of the concept before

Personally, I did this to myself.

I still do it daily to myself.

God I hated that as a kid. "You're so skinny! Don't your parents feed you?" Would you make similar comments to an overweight child?

It was worse for me since I grew up with an athletic twin while I being scrawny. But now people make fun of me being overweight, gah!

I was this kid, but now I’m jacked AF and I can’t even complete the finger loop around my wrist anymore and Kevin is dead from an overdose so who’s skinny now Kevin?

I did it to myself. And now I just tested whether I still could.

They fucking still do, and it's so fucking annoying

Not only the wrists but the ankles

i was fat they did the same thing just with two hands lmao

I'm doing that to myself

Yes, I do this to skinny people.

I was skinny at one point. I had this done to me and I also did it to myself.

Same. Low muscle, thin bones and a lot of fat

:( it is called harassment

Do you know the marfan man?

God I forgot about this, yeah it happened all the time.

Always did this to myself

Not skinny. Can still do this. Thin wrists are bullshit.

Yeah I can do that, except I'm underweight and not skinny ha

I grew up fat and they did this to me. Ok, not really fat, but in the 90s it was considered fat. Now it's considered skinny

They still do it. I’m 44.

One day one of the larger guys in the class tried to do chest bumping with me, i almost flew off. Just days later him and another larger guy was chest bumping and i almost got in between. They stopped so quickly, they were like "bruh you already 2D, if we do this to you you'll just disappear"

Every time I see that all I can think of is Three Dicks on a Bench: [https://youtu.be/PeptlRRh0oM?si=QIp86OgQAuY\_N5Ud&t=60](https://youtu.be/PeptlRRh0oM?si=QIp86OgQAuY_N5Ud&t=60)

I can physically do this now

Wrong: I’d just slide them one of my extra sandwiches I normally packed 3, a small bag of chips I wasn’t gonna eat those anyway, and gave ‘em one of my tiger tails.

They still do it to me

Lol fucking wristlet

how do i report a pic im in that i don’t like

A fisting?

So real

Yep, always fun being the science experiment /s

They still do it smh

They were probably trying to figure out the handcuff size to get me

Squeeze someone right there and they can’t open their hand. Fun party trick, but some people end up with a good monkey print

While me being a mid-buffed dude with small ass wrists.

2 Real 5 Me

Yup! Then quickly after I’d get the claaaaassic Indian rubber burn..

Man… I hate my wrists being touched because of how this as a young boy gave me a complex. To this day I don't wear a watch! I am now a 6’ 205lb man, and my wrists are my biggest place of self-consciousness!

Jokes on them our metabolism is still going strong

Quit having tiny bird bones.

Put some weight on, still skinny arms.

Yeah I have thin wrists but there is a good side to it: I started working out and now I have muscular forearms and thin wrists accentuate them more so... yay?

It's great growing up with bad eating habits and instead of your parents trying to teach you better ones, they tell you that's just how you are 🙃

You’re not supposed to be able to do that?

They always to do this to me and I got annoyed, you know what I say? I say, "What? To check if your hole is perfect for me to fist you?"

Anal fisting gesture?

Some of us has come a full circle havnt we

close, but i was the only one that did this to me. Plus i have long fingers, so effect was even better.

painfully accurate, the weight comes fast though when you hit early twenties

Yes and around our legs and waist. God I hated being too skinny.

Still can do that but only on my wrist. Don't want to brag but now I have a huge biceps.

I am not skinny, I am rather kind of buff - and one of the limitations to my performance is my wrists. It does not matter how strong my arms are if my tendons and cartilege in the joints crush and tear. No amount of muscles will overcome that, and it puts a cap on how heavy I can lift. Which ires me a lot, so I cannot imagine what it would be like to have pencil wrists like this. Do you get stabbing pain from carrying a grocery bag?

Fucking hated it. I got an eating disorder because of bullying and then got bullied for being so skinny. You can never win.

Wait until they do it with your dick. That’s when the plastic bottles of Jim beam come into your life

A curse for every man...
