Thread: Australia: Do obese models send the wrong message?

^Use the "Fresh Fruit & Veg" section only.

Although I make light of lard-buckets, I concede that it is not easy to lose weight when 95% of the products in the supermarket are pre-packaged crap, and stuffed with sugar.

Since going on a healthy diet, almost everything in my local supermarket is no longer purchased by me, because it is - to put it bluntly - totally unhealthy shite, stuffed full of sugar, sweet flavourings, nice colours, nice shapes etc.

Pre-packaged and processed food manufacturers are as bad as cigarette manufacturers, when it comes down to consideration of their customers' health.

You're missing the point Simon.
Do women have to eat food according to men's (some men's) desire for their body image?
If you think about it, Western men's requirements for women's body shape is no different to radical Islam requirements for women's appearance (hidden).
Is it all about how men think?

There is a slight difference. If a woman in radical islam, or rather most of Islam does not conform she is mostly dead or beaten into submission.

A fat woman in the West may be ridiculed and rejected by many but not killed.

I really do not care about fat models, dwarves, or freaks in general.

But will you ever see them advertising macca's, or KFC? Kinda doubt that.

^^It is about how men think, and men and women are allowed to find certain sizes appealing no matter. Attraction is a matter of preference as we see from some of the comments on this thread.

Women and men should be comfortable being who they are no matter their size. I believe the catwalk should represent different sizes and shapes as that represents the western world we live in. The skinny model you see on the runway (usually skin and bones) doesn't represent the majority of western women. This is what the article is talking about.

What a fucking load of tosh.

Where do you get this shit from?

most are aware that domestic abuse is not isolated to families which practice islam.

let's not allow yet another thread to be hijacked by those promoting islamophobia.

a reminder of the topic...

Australia: Do obese models send the wrong message?

Female abuse is higher in Islamic societies, Ray Gun.

And there is no such thing as "islamophobia."

Yes, let's get back to big-boned Aussie models.

Do obese models send the wrong message?

Yeah. My bird sent me a text saying she wants my 9'' cock up her.

Fat bitch

My brother worked with many young muslims. He has seen himself that a young woman came back from a Turkey holiday with her family with a broken rib and newly married. She has been very vocal before that she would never marry a man back in Turkey. There were other cases he has seen. It is an every day occurence wether you like it or not.

Yes, and domestic violence is endemic in Western society as well you fucking dimwit.

There is a difference between domestic violence and beating your daughter into marriage. But blind Islamophiles won't see it. Nobody is more blind than those who don't want to see.

I have more first hand reports on death threats against muslims that don't tow the line. I Don't rely on websites.

BTW I was not the one who brought islam into this thread.

Rubbish. The idea is just promoted by Islamaphobic media and media beholden to certain Western interests. Non-Muslim domestic abuse is rife world wide...look at Thailand.

Of course there is. Unless you're using some weird and invalid semantic argument.

Not big-boned, per se, "large", "fat", "buxom"...but "big-boned" is another valid euphamism.

Not all women can be slim and some do try harder than others. But at least they try...

You seem quite ignorant actually. Say more what...?
The article has a point, if we could get back to the article for a minute.
Australia should be showing a variety of clothes on a catwalk, because women come in all shapes and sizes and many are not the skin and bones as shown in the right hand photo.

Women's appearance is driven by what other women think not what one guy in Thailand thinks. Women dress to impress other women.

The sad thing for me is that young guys in the west have not much say in the whole process. They are presented with plus sized girls and have to make do or make do without. Hardly a choice. That being said rich men generally have thin wives.

I agree with what Simon says about the food on offer in the supermarket but people do not have to live on chips and sugar. There is a fruit and vegetable section. Again it is calories in vs. calories out.

I'm sure there are classes in schools where the equation is mentioned. Walking so many kms equals X calories, One super sized coke equals X + calories but obviously it is easier not to listen.

That being said there are even cultures where women are fattened up for marriage like prized animals.

We now live in a society where one gets a prize for participating because there should be no losers. Just because standards overall in everything seem to be dropping to include everyone, doesn't mean it is normal.

How do you know who women dress to impress?
young guys in the west have a choice.. no one is holding their hands telling them who to choose. In Asia, Thai women have a choice ... so If there is fat man A and fat man B, which man is holding more money.

They don't have to do anything, but personally I don't know anyone that finds gluttony attractive. You have to take care of yourself to find a mate, or rather have the best chance of finding a mate. Don't be a fatty then wail about how you can't find anyone "up to your standard" for example.

Save the whales, harpoon a fat chick!

White fatties can always find a black guy - they seem to love the rolls of flab

I admire your research, but couldn't find the footnotes...many of the women at my fitness center appear to focus on regular routines that promote healthy bodies rather than sexy ones...

I imagine the number is similar to those men who do the same thing...

so, N=all females then...

Gross generalizations yes, but very true in the real world.

PS Petite ladies also take up less room on the catwalk, require less foundations to support them, and are more mobile. Win, win win.

^haha..he forgot to add that most of them are starving and have bulimia.
