I'm a fit 27 y/o F. I weigh 121 pounds and have a more muscular build. As I've gotten older, my calves have gotten bigger and bigger. They aren't crazy muscular I feel nor are they fatty but they are very large for my body. They are just about the same size as my lower thigh and I'm incredibly insecure about them.
