What are all the adverse effects of a woman being at a low weight enough to have no or almost no pad of fat and totally visible abs?
I watched a video a while back of different people talking about how they felt at different levels of body fat, on the low end there was a woman very low fat like in the title, she talked about feeling miserable and having very low energy and hormonal issues, but for reasons not expanded upon she was very driven to maintain that.
I do a lot of work in character design, there are a lot of issues with racism, people learning how to profile others based off their immutable appearance, and like I'm talking about in this post body expectations. As we all know art reflects reality and reality reflects art, everyone has had a crush on a fictional character and Psycho got a lot of trans people killed.
In the last few years it's become fashionable to also depict women with inachievable levels of muscularity as a sign that they are, athletic, hardy and dominant, coincidentally when they do this they also always have a full padding of fat on their hips, one can only wonder.
Anyway I'd like to have enough examples that I can remember more than I need in casual conversation, and see more broadly what happens when people are confronted with the reality of why almost no one looks like that, and why their specific neurons don't fire there naturally.
Could I get list of both the physical and mental effects as well as what drives people suffering from them to achieve and maintain it?
