This hand-on-waist (which I think most of them are actually attempting rather than hips, buts its hard to tell on their shapes) pose is to draw attention to a slender waist in women who have them. Key part there, who have them. It's only meant to be a slight 'illusion' in the sense that it's simply making the waist more noticeable, hands 'framing it' so to speak. You're supposed to actually already have the small, slender waist.
Does not fucking work on fatties but damn do they try. They seem to think it works. I also guess they might try pushing their blubber in with the hand to make it seem their waist is smaller judging by some of those pictures, lol

they pull the blob back. Like puts hand on bellybutton, and pulls it around, toward the spine. pukes

They're so shapeless I can't even tell if they put their hands on their wait or hips tbh, all I see is blubber on blubber and shitty fatshion

Yeah after typing my comment I had a closer look.. it's fucking impossible to tell, really. But they are trying to do a post meant for a normal/fit body either way and failing massively

And that pigeon toed stance. I hate this. Or when they're so fat their legs are X shaped.
[–] 32DDbitches ago
Haha! Me too! X-shaped is spot on. When the knees are touching (along with the entire length of thigh flab), yet your ankles are a good foot apart. Thin priv is having your ankles touch and still having a gap between your knees and thighs.

Oh Oh! it's the fat equivalent to a thigh gap, since they are unaware of how to achieve that, they think their wing gap counts!

I'm a hobbyist photographer, and in posing guides it often advises women to not have their arms against their body. On actual women, it shows off the definition. On fatties, an arm that isn't lifted away from the body looks even bigger since it's squished. The hands on "hips" are to help the eye find what is supposed to be a waist, since that is what the brain expects to see. You will notice Tess often puts her hand in front of her, but holds it like it's her hip to try and give the illusion of a waist. Let me see if I can find pics to show.

https://i.sli.mg/ZvetuS.png Here you can see how she tried to show she has a waist. This is her go to pose. But eff our standards that she is trying in vain to mimic.

And just ignore the foot of fat OUTSIDE where her hand is.

It only shows how her body must be so squishy, they're all so hypocrites with their deception tricks
[–] Fatulous ago (edited ago)
Here you can see it even better. It's mindblowing to realise that even if her waist was the size of the imaginary "waist" she's trying to "create", she would still look overweight. Seeing this whale in all her majestic glory is incredible! Her hands and feet look so tiny in comparison to her bloated body and she's soooo wide... Hard to believe this is an actual

Fudge! You just explained to me why my Mom hates it when i took pictures with my hands on my hips. After the incident, she has been very vocal about her daughters never being put in that position.
I guess SJW would call this slutshaming, and yes. My Mom would hate me if i slept with a bunch of people, but my mother's approval means more to me than sexual escapades.

I try to avoid posing with straight arms with some dresses because even at my bmi of 20/21 I get these flabs https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/15/d7/03/15d70351aed2a2a117c5352737aeaa1c.jpg
It also makes my little waist stand out more

Those don't look like flabs. If you took the bra off, that area would look a lot different.
