Could also crush your head between her thighs... this is not a downside I'm just adding it to the list.

Her BMI is 30 because shes fucking built. BMI cant be applied to pro athletes.

Bmi can't be applied to most people. I'm a 28 but a size 10. I can do 5k in 27osh minutes and I work out 3 to 5 times a week. I'm fit. I just like food

I've always thought the overuse of BMI to determine how overweight someone is is kind of dumb specifically because it does not account for muscles. That says, I'm overweight so my BMI is an accurate indicator of that.
