stick figure 

The simplest drawing of a human being; one where the torso, arms and legs are just lines (hence "stick figure") while the head is a circle with a simplified face on it.

By extension, an actual human being who is extremely thin, if not anorexic, owing to their slender arms and legs and slight torsos. Plenty of supermodels are called stick figures because of their often bone-thin frames, whether or not they are naturally that thin.
With these two definitions in mind, how could I draw a stick figure of a stick figure?

And why are rich countries trying to emulate poor countries where there's plenty of starvation and fat is the ideal? Why are these wealthy men and women trying to look like stick figures?

Sorry but the l's here suck, and the head move to the right, so it doesn't look like a stick figure.
Stick figure's are fun to draw.

stick figure 

One of the easiest way to draw a human (or someone else). The most simple stick figure contains 1 or 2 lines for each leg and arm, 1 line for the body and a circle for the head. Alot flash animators will experiment with stick figures. Many of their work with them can be viewed at Newgrounds.
XiaoXiao is one of the best examples of stick figure animations.

stick figure porn 

Noun. Pornographic drawings of stick figures. Particularly beloved of bored students and anyone at a corporate meeting. Other - blissfully unaware - attendees tend to be the subject matter.
Mrs Johnson was not pleased with the stick figure porn depictions of her in my maths exercise book.

stick-figure embrace 

Refers to da playful "arms held out wide 'n' to da side" gesture dat two super-sociable people beamingly display prior to giving each other a big ol' squeezy.
Offering a small child a stick-figure embrace is often an awesome way to make him feel less bashful and more comfy wif engaging in a "round of lovies" wif you --- often da attention-loving child will just gleefully rush in and snuggle up against you without really thinking too much about it.
