Its appearance is primarily determined by ordinary differences in body structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the biggest factors is <strong>pelvic and hip anatomy<\/strong>. The width and angle of the pelvis, the position of the femurs, and the natural alignment of the legs can determine whether the inner thighs touch when someone stands normally. Two women with similar heights and weights can therefore have completely different amounts of space between their thighs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Body composition also influences its appearance. Where a person\u2019s body naturally stores fat and develops muscle can make the space larger, smaller, or nonexistent. Genetics plays an important role in these characteristics, which is why having or not having a thigh gap isn\u2019t a reliable measurement of someone\u2019s overall fitness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even posture can dramatically change what you see in a photograph. The distance between the feet, rotation of the hips, camera angle, clothing, and the way someone distributes their weight can create or exaggerate separation between the legs. A single picture therefore reveals particularly little about someone\u2019s body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So the answer behind the unfinished claim is simple: <strong>separation between a woman\u2019s thighs usually means nothing more than that her anatomy, body composition, and posture create that visible space<\/strong>. It cannot reliably tell you anything about her sexual activity or other personal characteristics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The separation between a woman\u2019s thighs is sometimes called a thigh gap, and despite countless claims online, it doesn\u2019t reveal anything secret about her personality, relationships, fertility,&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8748,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12024","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thescopex.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12024","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thescopex.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thescopex.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thescopex.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thescopex.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=12024"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/thescopex.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12024\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12025,"href":"https:\/\/thescopex.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12024\/revisions\/12025"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thescopex.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/8748"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thescopex.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=12024"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thescopex.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=12024"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thescopex.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=12024"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
