Okay, my view:
I love skinnies, i wear them all the time, they are the only jeans i wear. BUT! If you said you are super skinny, thats why you wear skinnys, your skinnies must still be skinny on you, otherwise they look awful, if that makes sense.
For example:
I saw a guy wearing skinnies, but his skinnies were baggy on him, because he was like annorexic.
If you are like that, then don't wear skinnies, it looks fucking gross if you can't fill up the skinnies. But filling up, i don't mean your muscles bulge out of them, i just mean they are tight on your legs.
Depending on the brand, i wear girls and guys. If guys skinnies in a certain brand don't fit me, i'll try girls in the same brand, and they normally fit me fine. I have a particular pair of girl skinnies that EVERYONE loves. Guys and girls always ask me where i got them from.
Yet, i have another pair of girl skinnies, that i have to wear down so low because otherwise i can't fit all my junk in them. Because i wear them so low, they slide down a fair bit whenever i sit down or something, so i like never wear them.
So my point is, make sure you pick the right type!
