Question:
36-24-36 are today's standards??
so im hearing from everywhere that 36-24-36 are the measurements women should be. well im 15 years old, 5'8" and about 138 lbs and im not exactly fitting in those standards. see, my body type is pretty much tall, lean legs and arms and a little fuller middle and a B cup bra. maybe im not measuring right? do you measure your bust with a bra on or off? because im about 39 inches with a bra on but im a 36B bra... and my middle measures out to be 34 and my hips are 36. but wait when u measure your middle do you suck in your stomach or let it be natural? cuz then maybe im doing it wrong because i left it natural. i mean my middle isnt really that big, but now that i see everyone else is around 24 i feel abnormally huge...
or is it because im a teenager its different?
gaah im so confuzed. any advice?

Honestly, don't even worry about it!! Why do they have a 'standard' anyhow? Even if every single person in the world was the proper and healthy weight, how many would make that 'standard'? How many people are there in the world and they have inches to decide what everyone 'should' be? You gotta be kidding me! I know you are young now, but believe me! There are WAY more serious things to worry about in life. I wouldn't sweat measurements! Believe me, when you are 30 something and having a full time job with kids at home and making mortgage payments you will laugh at yourself for even worrying about it!!
