Females, please elaborate on this Thigh Gap Trend??! Is This Real Life

She may have modelled for Ralph Lauren and appeared on the cover of Vogue Italia, but when a photo of Robyn Lawley wearing a corset appeared on Facebook the responses were far from complimentary. "Pig", "hefty" and "too fat" were some of the ways in which commenters described the 24-year-old. Her crime? Her thighs were touching. Lawley had failed to achieve a "thigh gap".
The model, who has her own swimwear line and has won numerous awards for her work, responded vehemently below the line: "You sit behind a computer screen objectifying my body, judging it and insulting it, without even knowing it."

Personally I like strong looking thighs (Dat Fitness model thread got me ) ....but this shyte is ridiculous...I can honestly say I have never given any conscious thought to this subject, whatsoever (prior to seeing the article)....
P.s: There is even a Wiki-How page on achieving a 'thigh gap'....

EDIT: https://www.pinterest.com/bridget1615/operation-thigh-gap/

After actually 'READING' (pic demanding idots should apply some literacy skills).. the article, I found this link & its safe to assume this is a white woman thing from the looks of it...still I have yet to meet a chick IRL who's like 'hey do you like my thigh gap'

It's like they wear shyt that focuses on their crotch area.
But they get offended if a nga do look at their crotch area.

If a woman is fit and has a thigh gap, that's fine.
But many women are desired and pressured into having one because it's perceived as sexy.

Lots of women are fit and healthy and don't have a thigh gap.
The pressure to lose enough weight to get one is harmful and vain, in my opinion.

I find wide hips attractive, but I would not want my woman to sacrifice her curves and muscle tone trying to get a gap.....
Like i said in the OP...I had never heard of this "thigh gap" until stumbling across article etc . Those pictures of girls with thigh gap are gross, they look anorexic. What happened to the hourglass figure? Give me a busty girl with some hips and a little bit of meat for to smack while I'm riding her.

Pretty sure that shyt is genetic. These simple broads out here thinking their bodies are 100 percent customizable

Purposely doing things to achieve a thigh gap is typical #whitegirlshyt It's either natural or it isn't. Furthermore it's stupid.
