8. Between the republican politicians and societal demands to look anorexic

I think society's disrespect for women as a whole is beginning to show big time. Every where we turn we are told by someone what to do and how to be. I say screw them all.

31. If she is plus size then many of us are super size.

My wife has to order through the big girl catalogs. We always comment on how the big girl catalogs use skinny models.

42. Well, one way is to refuse to participate

The other is how do you stop things like nooz bunnies? I will be honest, no way I could get before a tv camera.

I don't have the figure. And that is a serious problem.

From the DUmp picture threads the ideal DUchette figure is in the neighborhood of 350-400 pounds.

I'm sorry the crazy bald dwarf has refused to participate as a "nooz bunny".

She really does have a figure.

It's one that reminds us that Circumference = pi x Diameter.

I asked a good female friend once long ago why the fashion industry adopted the Twiggy standard as far as what an attractive woman is despite the overwhelming response otherwise by men.

Her answer (she is conservative so inherently smart) caught me by surprise but hard to argue.

The men in that industry are often gay and do not like the curvy,feminine figure but prefer that of a young male.

The woman in the picture has a very pretty, but normal-sized body,  However, it is that swimming suit that looks large and industrial strength.  Her boobs and butt cheeks probably don't bounce around very much even when running.

Plus Size models are usually a size 12-16 and at least 5'9", and often taller.  The taller you are, the more weight you can carry and look good.  They want healthy, good looking girls who are relatively toned and proportional.  They may be "plus sized" but they still need to show off the clothes in a way that will make them look attractive.

G Gordon Liddy's wife, Mrs. Liddy (God rest her soul) said this once, as G Gordon reported it a few years back. She elaborated by saying that in their minds, it's out of hatred for heterosexual men, and also jealousy of the curvy women. So, the models have the bodies of 10 year old boys.

All the run of the mill fashion models are way to skinny, but notice that almost every single model that makes it to "super model" status, has curves and lots of them.

Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”
