Worrying beauty ideal:thigh gap

On the internet more and more girls are under the spell of the thigh gap. With a thigh gap, the inner sides of the thighs do not touch.

For those who adore a thigh gap, the model Cara Delevingne (see photo) is a great example. Accounts have even been created on Twitter to honor dijkloven. Own experiences are also shared. "Being sick + not eating for three days has made my dike gap bigger :-))" tweeted a 15-year-old girl.

Unrealistic
Few adults naturally have a dike gap, but if it's not in your build, you can't achieve it in a healthy way. People go to great lengths to get a thigh gap and that makes it a worrying beauty ideal.
