Is there such thing as a big hip bone?!


Question: Do some people have bigger bones than others?


Answers: Do some people have bigger bones than others?

Women generally have shallower and wider pelvises than males, but aside there is not a large amount of difference between males and females in terms of skeletal structure. Women tend to be more gracile in form, men more robust. Density and size do vary with and among races and genders. Some people even have extra bones (ribs or vertebra). But bones vary much between individuals in size. That is why we have people of different heights and body shapes.

So in closing, yes some people have larger/longer/thicker bones than others do, either due to their genetic make-up or environmetal ones. (pollution, injury, disease, even temperature)

No, not that I know of. Many people say they're "big-boned", but others assume that big-boned is just an excuse for being overweight.
