Skinny supermodels

[Peegee]

- ribs are sexy
- abs are really sexy
- muscles are sexy
- in good shape is sexy
- skinny is sexy
- obese is not as sexy
- normal weight can be attractive

It all comes down to this question: is the mass spread out in a flattering manner?

I am size 10, and I am happy, because most people my age are.


I am proportioned, im not a twig but in not fat = its a win-win!

I don't really think anything of skinny supermodels. Maybe if I felt that I had to look that way it would bother me but....I dunno. I don't even know where I'm going with this. I guess I just don't care! And I'm fine with the size that I am. Finally. In fact, I'm enjoying it.

Here is my perfect girl.

[StarChild]

I'm a plus sized woman, and I'm quite proud of my curves, but it doesn't mean that I don't work out or allow myself to be a plus sized woman. I work out every other day for two hours, and this is just how my body is. I think really skinny girls are gross. If you look healthy, then that's wonderful, as long as a person looks healthy.

[Yamaneko]

We demand perfection from our women. Anything less is unacceptable.

Arent skinny models getting banned from fashion shows ?

Yes they are! Fashion capitals the world over are banning models who are too skinny in favor of healthier looking girls. Yaaaay!

It's only Madrid.
It is possible to be healthy and slightly underweight. I'm a size 6/8 (British) in clothes and my BMI is 18/19. And I don't diet or starve myself at all. But shopping is hell. Most things just fall off.

I like slim-curvy. Not slim to curvy. Slim but with curves. Think Monica Bellucci, Kate Beckinsale and Catherine Zeta-Jones. They're all model height but not Kate-Moss-esque (I love her, but for different reasons). I do not like boyish figures. And I do not like chub. I am a picky girl.

Slim or just "normal size". Too skinny or fat is a big no no.

[Xander]

Whatever really, that's what the modelling industry's like isn't it? If they're happy with it, fine. But the thing that bothers me is size 14 is not big or plus size! What do you call over size 20 then? Grr. Plus so many people have sizes they naturally are and they'd look dumb being too skinny.

If those models have to have special diets or starve themselves then I just feel more sorry for them than anything really.

It must be so damn hard for girls sometimes, because they're not supposed to be TOO skinny or TOO fat. So we're supposed to be "normal" and just right in the middle and stick like that? One bit the wrong way and you're suddenly not normal?

Whatever your weight is, if you're being that weight to be "normal" or so you look right to others then I don't think that makes you suddenly sexy. I think girls who are happy with themselves and not constantly whining or worrying or dieting are sexier. And I'm not saying I never whine or worry, of course I do. But come on, there are more important things in life to worry about.

Agree 100%

That was a girl that Janice hired into her agency. If she came to me I would have told her to go to McDonalds and not to come back until she's gained a good ten pounds.

Now there are can be good skinny, too. Those are the kinds of models we need.

[Shiny]

Some skinny people are okay. If that's how they naturally are and if it's not overboard. But, when people become too skinny so much so that we can see their rib cages then it becomes gross. What bothers me the most is that the modeling industry just focuses on one type of woman and they expect others to look that way; tall and really skinny.

It's not only Madrid. Milan, London are following suit. New York and Paris will come to their senses soon enough.

[Skarr]

Too me its all in the face of the person. I don't mind if they're skinny. Right and that personality thing too.
