I don’t know what happened to my post. I like many other men love plus sized women. We don’t just look at the magazines to admire Plus sized models. We also influence purchasing decisions. It preposterous and depressing to see waif like women in something that purports to having plus sized models.
I want to see plus sized models for a variety of reasons, one of which should make your advertisers pay attention. I hope the other reasons are flattering and not considered vulgar. I see so many postings that plus sized women want to lose thirty pounds. It is a shame. There are plenty of men out there to make you comfortable with the way you see yourself.
Give us a chance and put more PLUS SIZED models in plus sized adds and articles.
You are beautiful.

I think it will get balanced out eventualy. I am size 14 and have an hourglass shape and get a lot of complements but I really believe that if I loose 30 pounds or so I will look better and feel healthier. I also agree that clothing for plus size women should be flattering and sexy and affordable. I dont understand why the extra charge for a plus size clothing? Crystal is not a true representation to me either….she is still smaller than a plus size woman.

I doubt it. They could have used a size 18 woman but instead the used a 10/12 in Crystal. I like her but she’s not a true representation to me of what a plus size woman is. Even a size 16 would have been better.

I am hopeful that we will. It’s going to be an uphill battle, but I’m very optimistic that it will happen. I think that we are slowly returning back to the days where beautiful, full-figured women were celebrated in early paintings and etc. Women looked like…women. The emaciated, boyish figure is going out of style. I am not one who wants EVERYBODY on a runway to be plus-sized, but EVERYONE on the runway shouldn’t be skinny either. That’s BORING! I think there’s room for everyone. And if you’re a reputable fashion designer, you should be able to design clothes for ANYONE! These designers need to man-up and rise to the challenge of creating clothes for people of various shapes and sizes. It’s only going to put more money in their pockets in the end.

I would like to think so, but highly doubtful. Anyone above a 12 is considered by most of the world as ugly, unhealthy and undesirable. And I should also add lazy. I am over a size 12 and I know how most perceive me to be…. your judged on your size.
