:marseywomanmoment2: doesn't believe that muscle growth and fat loss can change your body shape

https://old.reddit.com/r/TwoXChromosomes/comments/1ckaqwh/my_husband_mansplained_to_me_how_i_could_grow/

I'm kind of shaped like a bullfrog :marseychonkerfoid: (broad shoulders, a belly, no butt, slim hips and thighs). I have a heck of time finding pants that fit right. I lost weight and have been trying to find new clothes and I complained to my husband that clothes I try on just don't fit. He believes I can change my body shape through exercise. He's now on my shit list. I'm venting, but if other ladies with my unfortunate body shape can recommend jeans that might fit, please let me know.

If you look at the skeletons of people you wont be able to tell which one was a bodybuilder, which one was a influencer wearing yoga pants everywhere and which one was a plus size model. You absolutely can change your body shape with excercise. Body shape is mainly defined by muscle and fat. The amount of both and their ratio is the main things that influence body shape.

If archeologists can look at bones and determine that someone was an archer based on bone structure, then yes, they absolutely can.

>Your body will decay and go back to the dust, and all that will remain of your legacy is a skeleton that is unmistakably an archer

Things archaeologists can determine from a skeleton:

  • "Natural" weight for that person

  • type of exercise they did,

  • that she was really funny though

  • that she had to do all the emotional labor raising little Aidyn while he was at work

Things literally impossible to determine from a skeleton:

  • was it male or female
