I'm 18 soon, 69 kg, 6'1". Ectomorph, cant change my weight no matter how hard i try. I lift weights for about 2 years now. Not a whole lot of progress. About 7.1% body fat.

Yep, exactly the same here! Thats the trick of being a lightweight! I think its much more beneficial in life haha. Would I rather be faster, more flexible, have more stamina and agility or just 'Look bigger' and be able to use my weight to hurt someone? Its obvious haha. My Dad's friend was a national boxing lightweight champion in Italy, some arse put him against a heavy weight. He absolutely battered the heavy weight because he was so much faster and agile. But the heavy weight bust his arm using his brute force (mainly body weight) and he was unable to play again
Why don't you go look at the olympians and at the size of them before you make this judgement.
Haha this made me laugh. Last time I went to the doctors they classed me as severely underweight :P Im 19, 5ft 10 and I weigh 10st and 4oz. Cba to convert that but im pretty skinny. My bones weigh a hell of a lot though tbh.
Im 6'1" and I am the same. I know I'm a bit thin, but I wouldn't see myself as severely underweight. Just the lower end of normal. I know so many people my age that are slimmer.

The judgement of?? Whats there to judge?? The bigger you are, the stronger obviously but when fighting, heavy weights like to throw their weight around...
