Do Plus Size Models Encourage Obesity?

Apparently there is a new study that suggest that banning size 0 models from the runway will backfire on society, and they also claim that having larger models will increase obesity in Western society.

I find it interesting that no one is speaking about skinny size 0 models encouraging anorexia. Models, whose bodies reject being so thin, begin to do extreme things like eat salad and peanuts all day. They work out 2 and three times a day and chain smoke, in order to try and chase away the hunger. Why is this not a study we are reading about?
