You've been reading interviews with Keira Knightley!
So yes, very true. Some people are naturally like that. Which is fine of course, but still not quite as attractive. Although that's down to one's own preference I suppose.

Oh Keira *spit*. She can't be naturally that thin. (Or that bad an actor) Silly bint.
I'm talking as a previously uber skinny, but now average sized person. Haven't tried being fat yet, it's next on my list!
It's just when magazines try doing that, albeit well intentioned, 'big is better', 'no one wants a woman with the body of a 12 year old boy', 'isn't this skinny model disgusting' thing that just makes a whole new set of girls feel like shit.
You can't say anything basically, without hurting someone's feelings!
Haha, well good for you. 
As for the Knightley, I've no real opinion of her acting. It hasn't struck me as particularly awful, but then I'm not sure I've seen her in anything other than Pirates. I do like her in regards to her opinions of size though. She's said on a number of occasions that she has "no tits" and that photos of her have been airbrushed to make them look bigger, and her even thinner or a bit fatter. She seems quite common sense about it. She's also made the effort recently to argue against critics, that she is naturally that thin.

That's always a risk, but I think that there are far more people trying to make themselves skinny - who should be discouraged - than making themselves fat.
Maybe she is naturally that skinny then. I thought that on, erm... that football film she did, that she was normal sized, and that therefore in the following couple of years she's halved in size. But maybe I'm wrong about that. I'd have to watch it again properly and I'm not sure I can manage that.
Haha, well, she was a bit younger then, so I guess maybe shorter and generally not quite as developed in stature etc as she is now, therefore making her appear to be a bit more 'meaty'.

I don't think it's natural. In a lot of the pictures the tops of her arms are the same width as her forearms which can be a sign of being underweight. Also, her skin looks a little dull when she get papped without make up so she may be quite ill. But then again the only person who really knows for sure is her.

Eh?
I've yet to see a 'pap' photo of someone, without makeup, whose skin looks normal. It's just a trick of the flash and the exposure on the camera. (Not to say that her skin isn't necessarily like that, but just pointing out that it's not really symptomatic of being skinny or not.)
I'm not quite sure how the width of different parts of the arm have anything to do with being naturally or artificially skinny either? Do you mean that even naturally skinny people have different sized upper and lower arms?
It's to do with body fat ratio.

Until you need a crane to pull you out of bed, don't panic. Marilyn Monroe was a size 16. Remember that. You are only overweight if you weigh more that your doctor.
Anyone got a crane I can borrow?
Loopey! Haven't spoken to you in ages! I told you the choc stash was for emergencies ONLY!
Are you sure a broken finger nail isn't an emergency? (Hangs head in shame and wipes chocolate from mouth) you know I have no self control. I promise I will replace it. Might as well just finish this little bit .....

This is an ad I came across on bust.com. I don't tend to like anything from unilever but this is actually a good campaign.... if only they really meant it. It's still good. Scary, but good.

Aw, that is good.
I hate my niece watching music channels. All she sees are 24/7 oiled up tarts in bikinis. That is not what women are for.
