Search Results: plus size

Basically, like how plus size models are becoming more normalized and whatnot.
Ashley Graham made headlines when she was featured in that Sports Illustrated magazine.
Tess Holliday also made a name for herself in the plus and modeling community.

Then there are these models posting break downs about how much scars they have and how it's damaging to think they're perfect etc.

Do you like the "normal/average" models or do you prefer them to be the best of the best?

Personally, I feel like a lot of the "diverse" models are just being shoehorned in for "diversity sake". It's kinda like AA, where the minority/women quota just means they get mediocre people as opposed to the more qualified. I'm not saying that minorities can't be qualified, however. Just that many mediocre make the cut because of a quota.

But I feel that's what's happening with these models too. Sure, don't feel bad that you have scars or stretchmarks. But I don't see why it's so necessary to keep emphasizing it. It's starting to become cliche. Don't get me wrong, a lot of them are beautiful and talented. But not all yet they still make it because of their "diversity novelty".

And call me shallow, because I am, but I don't want to see someone like me modeling. Acne is not attractive lol
I want to see someone attractive modeling so I can imagine it's best potential. Those sexy panties or dress or whatever, I want to see it on a hot chick so I can *feel* like a hot chick too when I buy it lol
I am glad that they are cutting back on photoshop though. And I am glad they're including "diverse" beauties like Ashley Graham, yes I think she's extremely attractive. I just don't care much for when it's "forced".

Keep in mind that all this diversity and body positivity gave us this goddess lol:
