OT: Dents in hips

freeradicals — Thu, 17 Feb 2011 00:05:13 GMT

I was just wondering if any of you gurls have the same thing I do?Images may be NSFW:http://xb3.xanga.com/f4af646336732264953582/z211273868.jpghttp://profile.imageshack.us/user/ihaveweirdhips/images/detail/#126/003zo3.jpgFor reference I just found a couple images on the internet; neither of them are mine.They're not fat lovehandles at all, but it seems where my leg meets my hip, there's not a smooth cuve but it kinda cuts off and it looks like I'm a doll with a mismatched upper and lower body. I've been thinnish my whole life (with many fluctuations around holidays hehe), but fat seems to accumulate where "muffin top" would be and not in that stupid dent, so when I gain weight it looks even more ridiculous when I'm naked. With swimsuit season coming up, I'm feeling self conscious like I've always been because bottoms have always looked weird because they sit in that dent. Same goes for underwear (I have a boyfriend who hasn't really seen it yet), and even when I'm more toned I can't wear "wiggle dresses" or tight dresses to show off my body because of that funky hip indent, which makes it a little frustrating to go prom dress shopping.I'm curious to know if you gurls think it's because how I trained my hips when I was 12-15, wearing jeans waaaaay too tight for me in the waistband because I could get away with it b/c of no fat, or if it's just my natural frame? I'm almost leaning towards ill fitting jeans because I didn't notice it/have it until I hit puberty. Anyone else have funny dented hips?

I've always thought that was really pretty when people had that, actually.

Huh, I hope more people feel that way!I also hope that it won't complicate giving birth when the time comes. I wonder if wearing jeans with a more natural rise would help correct the problem (if restrictive bands caused it in the first place) but I'm probably done/nearly done developing so it'd be a long shot :s

I have that too! I don't know where it is from, but it bothers me sometimes. I'm pretty average but if I don't wear kind of bigger jeans it looks like I have a muffin top. But I'm learning to think who cares lol I like my body so does my boyfriend it doesn't matter what other people think. Rock that bikini girl! Like the other poster said, she thinks its pretty when girls have that. Maybe other people do too?

Yeah, I always tend to draw women with that dip. I think it's really feminine and pretty. I don't think it'll have anything to do with giving birth, women of all different hip sizes and shapes have had babies since the dawn of time, I think you'll be ok.And I'd also like to say, after further inspection, I kinda have it too.

No, but I had the same underwear that you are wearing like 5 years ago!! haha too funny.. I wouldnt worry about it. You have a great body and lots of people would kill to be your body shape and size!! I have a line going across my stomach that I think is from my jeans because I've always worn such low rise pants. Trying less restrictive jeans would be your best bet in my opinion.

Triple nice!! And yeah, I hope it doesn't complicate things, although I have a lot of time to think about it.Jewel-e: That isn't my body/undies or drawing hehe, I found those pictures while browsing yahoo answers :'3 I think I will start getting nicer, higher rise jeans. I have a pair but somehow it's a little difficult to find cute skinny/straight jeans that don't pinch and go up a tad higher. I got lucky and found a $90 pair of banana republic jeans on sale for $20 C:

I have small dents in my hips too. I think it's normal because there's nothing wrong me. Yours are a bit bigger than mine but I don't think that means there's anything wrong with you. It just happens...

My hips totally look like that, too! Drives me crazy in a swimsuit. And I doubt it was from tight jeans, because I dressed like a boy in that age gap you were talking about, haha. [p.s. we have the same name. and we're the same age. TWINS. O.O]

If you're worried about swimsuit season, just get the right swim suit. I have that to, although I am a but more curvy it is the same. What I do when it comes to summer is get the right bikini bottoms, I swear I have 15 pairs of the same bottoms in different colors so they can match any top I buy. The bottoms I get have thick sides so they can camouflage the indents also monokini's work quite well and they are really quite sexy to! Best of luck!

I have that! Hahaha it forces me to wear bathing suit bottoms that sit low so that my love handles aren't accentuated. It is a little weird! When it comes to jeans I have to get ones that sit pretty high because of that too!

flamingoccm — Thu, 17 Feb 2011 09:58:42 GMT

omg! I've never met anyone else who had that problem...yep. I've got hips like that. it is SO annoying in dresses that are kinda tight because my body just doesn't look good with it. I hate it so much! haha

We think alike! I've been looking at these two bikini bottoms to buy in multiple colors x)http://www.victoriassecret.com/ss/Satellite?ProductID=1265400607599&c=Page&cid=1295527715829&pagename=vsdWrapperhttp://www.victoriassecret.com/ss/Satellite?ProductID=1265400306856&c=Page&cid=1295527715829&pagename=vsdWrapper

Yeah I know, my best looking jeans and underwear sit higher and it's a tad annoying o.o I'm not really sure which bottoms will look best because I haven't been swimming in a loooong time... hmm, maybe I'll give low ones a try, but I was thinking ones with more coverage would help my hips look more proportionate. Eh, to each her own 'cause we all have different bodies :)

Exactly! Tight dresses and pencil skirts are my biggest peeves with these silly hips.

I MAY be wrong here, but as far as I know the part that goes out on your hips is the sides of your pelvic bones. Which I think is a good thing for when you're pregnant anyway, because the further the sides are apart from eachother, the more space the baby has to lye out, which also means you have a smaller bump. One of my teachers was telling me something like that. But that may not be what those dents are. It looks like it though! And I agree I think thats actually really pretty!

I have that too. Now I think it's because I've gained some weight over the years and it all went to my hips and thighs, but I seem to remember always being shaped this way whatever my weight. I think I've always attributed it to the elastic waist bands on my clothes. But I've also definitely seen it on a lot of girls, so you certainly aren't alone! And honestly I don't think people even notice. We're so much more aware of our bodies than anyone else is. I tend to sweat a lot, so I often have patches under my arms. It's makes me really self conscious and I work hard to keep people from noticing and it took like 3 months into a relationship before my bf even noticed it, and he's been known me for a couple years and had been outright checking me out for months. Plus I know I often notice things that I know other people find embarrassing, but I don't think any less of them or even notice beyond a passing recognition, even on people I'm crushing on. So that was kinda ranty :P But my point is that you aren't a freak or anything and it's probably just the way your body is shaped (like bone structure or fat distribution), many many girls are shaped that way, and that strange though it may seem to you I sincerely doubt anybody would ever notice or fault you for it :)Edit: Also I looked at the links for the bathing suits, and the second one is super adorable!
