    btw and i this hoping to not step on any toes, but it's kind of sad......because this topic was started to commend the girl in the photo for actually taking such a photo and listen to us scrutinize her..... we;re just as bad as the rest of society who has a certain outlook on how a person "should" look :sick:

    I was just thinking that on my way to the gym.:smooched:
    great minds think alike.....:smooched: .....i know one thing.....if anyone criticized me like that esp after having kids.....i'd prob cry and then eat a whole fudge platter to my face :laugh: ok maybe excluding the fudge platter part, but i deff would feel horrible about myself and we're here to encourage eachother to love our bodies

    That's the problem with beauty. It's in the eye of the beholder and cannot be quantitfied so there will always be disagreements. She's too soft. Jillian Michaels is too bulk. No one will ever agree.:grumble:

    Ok thought of a good way to put this.

    i don't like her because I don't think she is healthy. Regardless of the pose, I think she looks fat and weak. If this is the answer to Twiggy, I say it's a cop out.

    And ya it maybe "normal" but it's far from inspirational.
    Models weather we like it or not like everyone in the public eye are role-models. Especially to young girls... Doesn't sending the message of, "fat and weak is good enough." just as negative as saying "too thin and weak is good?"

    It might be comforting to the ego to say, "this woman is perfact." but it's a lie... That woman is likely obese.

    There are women who wear size 14-16 sized pants who don't look so out of shape and who Arn't body builders. Why don't they pick someone who truely IS healthy at that size then chunking up a woman who is too small?
