Promoting wrong look?

ok we all are aware of the fact that media promotes really skinny model look as a perfect body...and we also know what effect it has on some young girls..low self confidence, anorexia, bulimia...i think that the modern society is obsessed with look way too much...they try to make you believe that being really skinny is the way to go, that that is what men want the women to look like...one think i wonder about is who set these standards and on what ground? is being all bones really that good?

It is the modeling industry that holds this standard and they have always judged every one's height and weight. Basically they feel that designer clothes look nicer on someone who is slim. Plus it is harder for most people to be super skinny so that is why they make it challenging to become a model. I think most guys prefer more curvy girls nowadays especially after J-Lo hit the scene and made big butts popular.

sometimes im really upset when i go shopping cause it looks like that all clothes are made on really tall skinny girls with big boobs....ppl who make clothes should look around once how an average woman looks like and stop making ppl starving themselves just to make sure they will fit in that pair of jeans

Ha tell me about it it is impossible to find a size 14 dress shoe for me. I always have to special order them. Another thing is finding sweaters with long sleeves. You may not have that problem shopping here we have about 10 malls with a ton of clothes stores.

I never liked those
Only wore those for when I was in track in high school, and for cross country running
The jeans I buy last pretty long (minus the rips) but their still in one piece
It's hard to find my size in pants, cuz I'm kind a tall but with a weird leg fit
All they offer are tight jeans and I hate those
I see girls walking around with like skin tight jeans on
It;s like...what's the point??

What I really hate is the image of a plus sized woman as well as the fact that fat people's clothes are more expensive and harder to find y'know it really ticks me off cause I'm a big girl I wear 5X pants and I can't wear any jeans (that makes me so angry (grrrr)) I want to lose weight but nothin close to a model I think those women are ugly its disgusting for a woman to be just skin and bones and its not natural and not only that its not just weight either sexuality is the same way girls are being bombarded everyday by popular images of women dressed like hookers and grinding on someone and it causes them to think that they have to be like that to be popular and like by everyone else.

ppl reinforce the skinny look stereotype...another thing i hate when buying clothes is that so many really nice tops have such big cleavage...as if every woman had D cups or something >.<

if so, its only logical the companies would promote this "lifestyle". There's a greater profit margin for smaller clothes, larger clothes simply cost more.
or is there a sub secret society bent on warping the thoughts and minds of Americas youth.
