The stunning size 12 model branded 'too fat' for TV competition

That model is beautiful! I'm really fed up with this trend of 'only stick thin is beautiful!' in modeling. I can understand it in fashion modeling because that's about the clothes and curvy models destroy the lines of the clothing. But for adverts and things like that, models do not have to be these sickening twigs. Women with some curve to them are gorgeous!

Real women are beautiful. The media glamourizes anorexia, so why are we surprised when so many people have this desease. Has anyone else had the experience of going into a clothing store and seeing the lack of size 12 clothing? Either they aren't carrying this size, or most people wear this size and that's what they are buying. This really should be a signal to the clothing industry to make more of this size.

I wish that I cared but I don't. Being the public eye is an unforgiving mistress. You must conform or face exile. The fact they thought the women was too fat isn't all that surprising. She is far bigger than average models. Them praising the thin one for her tiny frame is a bit disturbing but not at all surprising.

I think thats so discusting. I think that the woman on the left is much prettier. I think in todays world, anyone who isnt a 0-3 is looked down upon which is really sad because with commercials for fast food and yummy food, how could you not give in?

It's extremely horrible how the world works. Did you see that Dove the evolution of beauty? Where the woman is transformed for a billboard cover into a supermodel after a lot of makeup, hairstyling, and lastly photoshopping? I look at my 8 mth old son and wonder how things will be when he gets older? Will there even be any normal looking people in magazines? Where I live I never see any people who are as skinny as models unless they are under 14. Most people are no less than a size 8 I would estimate. How can this ever end? It seems to have been going in the wrong direction for many years now with no turn around in site!

Fat the model on the left? She is simply a beautiful woman. On the right she is not a woman but simply a monster!

The size 12 model is very pretty, stunning actually!I think the industry is nuts for praising those who are skinny, I wonder why they continue to do it when the viewers find it so gross.

The woman on the left looks normal and the one on the right looks scary.

r u kidding ??? goshhhhhhhh this is too much !

How can young girls in today's world not be bulimic or anorexic? I mean, did you see this?? The size 12 model is perfect! The other one looks like a zombie who just woke up from its tomb!! Like seriously, the people behind this skin & bones fashion are sick.

i think the left one is much prettier..the one on the right looks like a walking skeleton. i dont understand how anyone can find that attractive at all.

What she is fine! Like really she would be considered almost slim fine down south, Marilyn Monroe at her peak was a size 14/16 so...I think they are crazy!

On looks alone the woman on the left gets my vote. Let's delve into the personalities a bit shall we? Again the woman on the left would be much more desirable to me as an actual human being and not sacrificing her health just to win some stupid pageant. I'm not saying that there is anything wrong with being thin but starving yourself to get there is just ridiculous. My girlfriend is a size 3 but she can eat more than me. Amazing how the human body works, isn't it?

That really is upsetting. I have a 5 year old and I am trying my best to raise her right so she won't have any self-esteem issues. Regardless of her weight or height or whatever.

I think this is precisely the cause of so many aneroxic youngsters these days... It seems like the general perception of beauty=thin or even skinny! I think size 12 is great, as long as the person is healthy.

Well, the woman on the right looks like she is sick to me and has lost weight due to some type of long term illness. The woman on the right looks healthy and active.

Hmmm...I like "fat" model on left side better. I do not like anorectic people. I posted similar discussion few days ago.It is going way to far, and for some reason industry is accepting all anorectic models.

being underweight with protruding bones is always a trademark of being a model.. this is how modeling industry works

lol
