I think they shud keep tha thin models on tha catwalk its true they look good and the clothes fall nicely on them . wen i see a bigger sized model it does not look right no offence but it looks stupied and yuck . its always been thin and it shud stay that way.

KEEP THA THIN MODELS ON THA RUNWAY !!!!!!

i will be upset if it changes .

i think it is just as mean to talk badly about skinny models (or women) as it would be to talk badly about overweight models (or women). i happen to be a very skinny woman, and have been my entire life. i’m 5’11” and the most i have ever weighed is 137 lbs- that was huge for me! i eat all the time, love to cook, and love to eat, but i have an incredibly fast metabolism and so i can almost never gain weight. i modelled for a while, and i find it hurtful to talk about all skinny women as if they have some kind of defect and/or eating disorder. there ARE many women in the world who are just naturally very, VERY thin. we shouldn’t be made to feel any less attractive to men than any other woman, in the same sense that overweight women should not be made to feel unattractive for their size. we all have different body types; let’s just accept each of us as we are!

I’m really glad they are starting to ban unhealthily skinny models, because I think it shows a very bad example to us teenagers.
I am 15 and I have a friend the same age who thinks she is fat and wants to be like the models she sees in the magazines, but the problem is she is perfect the way she is, she is really slim! and it makes me sad to see her get upset about her weight for no reason!
Also I am 5 ft 10 and slim, I would like to be a model but I think I am to big compared to the very skinny models I see on the catwalk and I’m only a size 8/10!

So I’m all the way for bigger models!
GO SIZE 10! WOOOO! LOL

im skinny but i do have a booty and boobs. that doesnt mean im fat and it doesnt mean im anorexic. i think models should be there “happy weight” where they are healthy and just a tad bit of meat on the bones. i am an aspering model who thinks anorexia/bulima is gross and unhealthy. i would know; i once was both. models should be happy about how they look, i mean they most be beautiful enough already, i mean they get paid to walk on a runway and look hot. models should be healthy looking.

I don’t see how people think it is okay to ban skinny models form the catwalk but in plus size shows and what not they allow overweight women to be in those shows and they are just as unhealthy as the size 0 girls

woman should be fit but not skinny. they shold have a normal chest and not a flat gross one. and they shold look like WOMAN not like some little sick boy. some thin and skinny chicks were born this way! some have more havy body type! but if you are a about 90 or less Lbs-you arn’t sexy if your more than 180-you arn’t sexy as well!
be fit and lady like!

This post is absolutely disgusting. I mean, talk about chauvinism! Who are you to say that certain women are unattractive because they are born thinner than average? It’s awful that you think it’s O.K. to degrade a women because she doesn’t have a large chest.
On another note, as others have mentioned, you have no proof that these poor young women have a problem. It’s not only unfair to say that they have an eating disorder because they are thin, but it’s also dishonest.

On a personal note, I agree with James Riskejame in that most men prefer thin women. They don’t look “boy-ish”, as they are very petite and delicate.

I didnt read through all of this, but some of the comments really got me thinking. I am not fat at all, 50 kilos, size 8. Some of these girls are almost dead just to fit in these clothes. They look terrible, they are bad for the youth to look up to, and becoming a common problem with kids, boys and girls and from a very early age. I feel sorry for these girls thinking that they have to get to the point of almost death to feel attractive. Its not fat women wanting the rest of the world to be fat too, its concern for youth, and the message that is being sent out. I think that people that feel that its attactive should keep it to themselves, its a dangerous message your sending out.
Now honestly, is this attractive, and do you think all organs are still working properly: http://www.tcnj.edu/~hofmann/humor/Misc/Skinny.htm

Yeesh, I’m sorry all of you are fat and they’re not.
Ummm have any of you considered that any of these models are NATURALLY skinny?
My relatives are extremely tall and skinny and they eat whatever they want. My brother is 6’2 and 110 pounds and I am a size 0. My dad as a kid COULDN’T gain weight.

Yeah, some models have eating disorders but dont call ALL skinny models ugly because some of them look really good naturally petite.

I spent my childhood being taunted by other children because of my skinny, skinny, ugly weight. I do not believe skinny is beautiful. I would rather be Monroe than Moss for sure.

I like thin women. In fact, I think most people do, but political correctness keeps us from saying so and we all have to pretend that fat is ok.

I think its ridiculous the amount of people that say skinny is a bad thing, everyone is so quick to judge when they see a skinny model or even just someone walking down the street. Like someone said above, not all skinny girls are anorexic or have eating disorders…some people are just naturally like that, like myself. I am actually really offended by what people say about skinny people because a lot of people are lke me and get catagorised as ‘anerexic’ when we’re not..to be honest i probably eat more fast food in larger quantities than many many people. Some people are fat…skinny people dont go around saying ‘I THINK IT’S DIGUSTING’ because thats just not how it works, if you are to offend a larger person, it’s seen as rude..if someone was to say something about how i look, its acceptable because its as though ive made myself like this which is unacceptable because i spend most my time worrying about how i look and wanting to put on weight. Just deal with it
Some people are skinny some people are fat, not all skinny people stave themselves or eat carefully for that matter..it’s just the way it is for some people.

I cannot stand how judgemental some people can be.

Skinny is healthy….curvy is fat and filled with poisens from the food you eat. I know, I am a blob. I can;t even spell correctly. These models are what all women should look like. Skinnier the better. Better girls learn in their teens to not trun out like fat curvy pigs or blobs like myself.
