Do girls like lanky boys

If they are a Liverpool footballer, then yes, as Peter Crouch will testify.
I personally wouldn't I mean being tall is attractive but not TOO slim. They probs just call you it because you're tall rather than slim, also you may be fine it's all subjective like beauty is in the eye of the beholder. don't worry xx

It's beneficial, yes. But don't feel pressured into doing it, if you don't want.

yeh totally, i would. i literally don't care about build. if you're nice, and i find u attractive, doesn't matter :smile:

You're not even as slim as you think you look. You're in good shape. Don't be self conscious.

Sarcasm at its finest🤣😂
You look like that guy from warm bodies but taller, you’re not too slim at all, if you’re a teen you can still have your metabolism slow down later on, if you’re fully grown you could invest some money for the gym if you’re that self conscious but I think you’re fine

I am 15 but i eat loads and I have tried eating upwards of 3K calories a day and I do work out. I'm quite self concious about my wrists and arms they are really skinny but not massively long

YES
This is literally me - but I have had 1 gf ish - complicated which I’m not going into, honestly I’m 6ft2 and get called lanky a lot but just don’t try to listen to it. Most people automatically say that you are Lanky if your tall just as a sorta stereotype.
