Do you think a woman wearing a size 4 is fat?

[IceBergSLiM]

Models know what they are getting into. If she's too fat for the run way she should move on from modeling or get skinnier. Nobody IRL actually considers that stuff real.

 

[lurk3r]

Its not the evil "industry", its the lovely human designers and other women, men like curves.

 

[rasczak]

I like 'em thin. My wife is 5'2 105lbs and absolutely gorgeous. After 15 years together I still want to sex her every damn night.

oh and to answer the OP, no.

 

[dank69]

That's a HUGE bitch!

 

[n7]

Is she's fat, then i love fatties.

 

[destrekor]

my sister's a size 4.

I told her she needs to lose some weight.

She told me she'll droping approx 8 lbs relatively soon.
:hmm:

ahem, you described the industry.


we men know what we like. We men aren't in control of the industry, however, and rarely get to see what we want to see, which is a healthy, curvy girl.

Well then you get the CasioTechs of the world who probably wanted a girl no larger than a size 1.

Personally, I loathe friction burn.

 

[Pegun]

Not Fat, Any skinnier than that and I'd be turned off.

 

[OUCaptain]

Most, close to all, women cannot wear clothes that small, anorexic size, so I don't understand how that is selling more clothes...

True, but they're not selling the size. They're selling the line or brand. As long as size 4 marketing outsells size 8 marketing, the industry will not change.

and the answer to the OP is obviously no

 

[FoBoT]

the "modeling industry" is full of psychotic fucktards

 

[Lamont Burns]

more like Normal. 12-14 might start to be pushing more than just 'healthy'

that's very true. we are anesthetized by the fatness of america. countries where people walk everywhere and aren't lazy gluttons are different. 12-14 is way too fat for moi.

 

[Skitzer]

Now this is the perfect size.

 

[Lamont Burns]

goooooo

 

[dingster1]

Oh my gosh!!! Thats disgusting!!! its the models who look like this giving teen aged girls image issues and cause them to have eating disorders

It's a tarded industry...it's like why can't xxx be a model? He's not GOOD LOOKING enough to be a model. This isnt' an equal opportunity employer where you get employed by merit. You get employed on superficial looks so if you don't cut the mustard you don't cut it.

If people want stupid size 0-2 or whatever and you either take your chances and slim down to a stupid size or don't.

4 is too skinny. Eat a damn sammich.

 

[BlahBlahYouToo]

no, but it's probably as big as i'd like on a gal.

strong lurker post... was it worth it?!?

I have no sympathy for stupid girls who are messed up in the head because of modelling. If you want to worship these models and be just like them, that's your decision and your problem. Good grief. People are stupid!

 

[darkswordsman17]

Absolutely! Get that disgusting fat pig out of my sight. I can't believe you linked to such an obese woman. She's dead within 15 years.

Of course she's just claiming that's why. For all we know she could be a raging psycho bitch or pissed off various people and is now getting blacklisted. Maybe she should go wash Michael Bay's car instead? That first pic doesn't exactly make her look all that great (granted a lot of models I don't even think look that good and not just due to the overt skininess). She looks like the woman from that Seinfeld episode that looked good in certain light but not good in others. [/devil's advocate] I have no doubt she did lose out for not being as skinny as they wanted her to be. Yes, the fashion industry is fucked up.

 

[Linflas]

Given that most of the world buys their clothes from stores like Walmart, The Gap, Old Navy or their equivalents in whatever country you happen to live in I have never understood the relevance of the "fashion industry".

 

[Azurik]

that's very true. we are anesthetized by the fatness of america. countries where people walk everywhere and aren't lazy gluttons are different. 12-14 is way too fat for moi.

I completely agree L.B.

I have nothing against girls in size 12-14 so please don't misconstrue me... but we Americans need to stop with this "overweight is normal" propoganda. Two-thirds of Americans are overweight or obese, but that doesn't mean it's normal or average.

Go anywhere else in this world... Japan, Russia, Sweden. The majority of women are healthy, size 2, 4, or 6 and beautiful.

I take care of my health and my body and expect my S.O. to do the same. Someone who is 5'5" - 5'7" and weighs 105 - 120 is ideal.

 

[bruceb]

If the belly is flat, she is fine, no matter what the size number is.

 

[Regs]

Most of the fashion industry are run by fags who like their girls looking like small boys.
