Do you think plus sized modeling is dumb?

because I do. I don't know lately people haven been just bothering me talking about how big is beautiful and stupid s*** like that. I mean plus sized models skip half the work, looking good enough to model and I'm tired of hearing people complain about...

how no one gives them a job cause their fat. People need to wake up and realize that being fat is unattractive and theres no such thing as big-boned its called fat. I'm ot a stick I have curves, but sizes 10+ are not curvy. am I the only person who thinks this way?

Being a plus size model is more than being just a fat person in clothing. They exercise and try to keep themselves healthy. My friend is a size 22 is 5'2 and she does modeling. She is very attractive, there is not one thing ugly about her. Yes she has extra weight on her and more curves and she is nowhere near a nasty slobby fat person. She gets hit on a lot and has a great job. I think you are putting all people over a size 14 in a sterotyped category. Bigger girls can be beautiful. There are a lot of ugly skinny people in the world also. Fat does not equal ugly. And just to let you know a lot of people consider anything over a size 7 fat...

Modeling isn't only for skinny folks. Plus size modeling was created for people who want to model, but feel that they're too overweight to do regular modeling.

how is it dumb? . Modeling for plus size women is empowering, it makes someone who might otherwise be self hating, feel like they actually have potential. Im size 18 and proud! Thats like saying having makeup for people of color is dumb. everyone deserves a chance to do something. I think that a size 16 woman is way more attractive than a size zero women. Besides, you can be really skinny, and still look like someone hit you with an ugly stick. Also some bigger women arent just fat, but also have muscle. I play soccer, basketball, tae kwon do, im healthy... just big, (btw im 5 foot 10. ) I dont think size has anything to do with attractive, rather someones ability to convey their self-love on their face.

I know that fat doesnt mean your ugly, I never said that. Skinny doesnt equal pretty either. but I'm saying people are trying to get plus sized models into the high fashion industry, and their sizes dont exist for those brands. so what's the point?

I love my best friend and she aint skinny.
She is BEAUTIFUL! and she has extra.
So if she modeled, I would looka at the pic
Most of them Skinny girls I know are Average looking.
And a lot of guys like her.
20 pounds + or - Beauty is Beauty

I agree. Regular models work hard to get there bodies. Oversized people who model just have to eat and put make up on. Yeah there shouldnt be oversized models. Its unattractive, im sorry. And I dont like how people like Tyra Banks tries to get more plus sized models because tyra use to look good but now shes like fat.

thank you runner

ok, well I think if a plus size model has what it takes they should be allowed into the high fashion industry, if not no. But what you have to get is plus size is what most regular people are now days, you know how it feels when all your left to buy it nurses looking clothes?

no, I certainly dont agree with you
sure being overweight is unhealthy
but there majority of plus sized models are NOT overweight
there perfectly healthy
they just look overweight because the model industry is a disgusting place full of freakishly tall girls who starve themselves because they are TOLD to look anorexic
so with that image being shoved in your face
of course you and almost everyone else is going to think a normal healthy person who is a size 10-14 looks fat
because the model industry is a disgusting place

lol there shouldnt be fat models cause stretch marks are really gross and why would I wanna look at a fat girl

..What about modeling for plus-size clothes? ...who else would wear them?

baseball9977 , why would you want to look at someone whos unhealthy and anorexic?

This topic is really p*ssing me off. (Excuse language)
I fit into a size 14/16 in WOMANS. I will admit, I'm overweight. But not much. I'm also big-boned, and sorta muscular, PLUS: I'm just naturally not a twig. Although I wear a pretty big size, I excersize and I'm healthy.
I don't understand why you think its so wrong for plus-sized modeling. It just makes no sense at all to me. Whoever thinks plus-size modeling is wrong is shallow and RUDE.
