Skinny Dissin'

"I want to tell the world I'm not anorexic just because I'm thin!"

People always come up to me and say, "Oh my god, you are so skinny! Eat more, girl!" It gets really annoying after you have heard it all your life.

I want to tell the world I'm not anorexic just because I'm thin! I mean, it seems like whenever people see a skinny person, they think he or she is anorexic. That's messed up! Some people are just skinny-that's the way they were born.

Even teachers come up to me and tell me I'm skinny. Sometimes I feel like crying. It's like everyone thinks I try to be skinny, but I eat a lot and I've never been on a diet!

My friends say people say these mean things because they're jealous. But I don't think that's the case, because even my grandma says I'm too skinny. Why would my grandma be jealous of me?

If anyone out there reads this and you're one of the people dissin' the skinny girls, think twice before you do it again and think about why you're dissin' them.

And to you skinny girls out there who know what I'm talking about, don't let these people get you down. Just tell 'em what I say: "Yeah, you have a prob with my being skinny? Well, if you do, keep it to yourself!"
