farang000999 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 "The two Thai women in this home both weight in at 46 to 47 kgs and both are 1.5m tall. At that weight they have beautiful slim figures" Not trying to be snark, but I think you did the math wrong somewhere. There is no way a Thai girl 47kg at 1.5m is considered slim. And it is not close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinnieTheKhwai Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 No idea what BMI means. But my wife is about 156 and tip the scales at 61 Kg. What can I do? I kind of like the power-dwarf look. Might as well enjoy it. Or get a couple more, start at Matryoshka doll collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it is not close. While I personally agree with what I think you mean to express - your personal opinion about word definitions - "is considered" is very vague. He may well consider this slim, slim != thin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAG Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 It would certainly be a grave error if I told Best Beloved (short, well rounded and beautiful) that she was overweight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAG Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 but then I am short, well built (large bones don't you know) and at times described as Hansum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maestro Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I remember reading somewhere -- can't remember where -- that the BMI formula does not apply to Asians. Perhaps the waist-to-hip ratio would be appropriate. Posted with Thaivisa App http://apps.thaivisa.com 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
