Title: Body types
Post by: tdawg on September 13, 2012, 12:44:36 PM
I have noticed a connection between jaw types and body types. I am fairly tall(for my family) and naturally very skinny. I have a longer face type as well. I have noticed this link in others with a long face. I have also noticed that a lot of men with really square jaws are the shorter stocky bulldog types.

Am I alone in this observation?

I've noticed that too!  I have the long, thin face, and in general I am tall and thin.  I've thought that since my deformed mouth makes it rather difficult and tiring to eat, I don't eat a whole lot - I always stop when I'm full, or even before.

Well its the opposite for me. I eat a lot and dont gain weight. In fact most of the food I eat is exactly what man should not eat, and I still stay skinny. I used to think it was because I was active, but since I graduated high school my time has been spent either at school, working, or out drinking. If I put on weight like most people I would weigh at least 250 pounds lol.

Well I don't know how much truth there is to your theory, but at 6'0 140 I'd say I fit it pretty accurately.

Well Im not saying there is on any significant scale. Just making observations from anecdotal experience. No stats or broad conclusions implied.

im 5'8 and a stick. 

i think my jaw or lack thereof does fit my body type


actually if i did have a big ole jaw and cheekbones i guess i could be a model.  do models faces look like they match their bodies?? hrmmm

6'4" 220 with recessed jaws.  Not much correlation here.

correct me if im wrong but we arent talking about weight necessarily but the over all bone structure

as an anectdote i have EXTREMELY narrow/small wrists.  people have made comments on them quite a bit

do you guys have other features that are narrow, weight aside
