Quite the contrary. Most of the skinny people I know are the biggest eaters.

Wrong assumption. Every person has a different rate of metabolism. It also is dependent of habits, work, exercise, type of food they eat, etc.

It seems the people who want to be able to put a little weight on are usually skinny and the people who want to lose some pounds are usually atleast slightly overweight. Personally, no matter how much or how little I eat, I always maintain the same weight. I have often been accused of being anorexic all the way back to elementary school although entirely not the case, which has hurt at times. I am full grown now and still wish I could put a little weight on, but cannot no matter what I do. BTW I'm 5'11 119lbs, which by some standards could be considered under-weight.

Speaking from the perspective of someone who is far from skinny, I know the word "anorexic" can be thrown around a bit too freely to refer to someone who happens to be just a little bit underweight, just as the word "obese" is used loosely for someone who might have a measly 10 pounds extra flesh. Although there are ultra-skinny (in the two-digit range) people who do have eating disorders, there are a few "naturally thin" people who merely have trouble keeping weight on no matter what they eat. Again, it's all a matter of knowing one's situation before jumping to conclusions.

Again, this is all in the makeup of a person.

No. Some of them are workout/diet fiends and others are just blessed by genetics.
