The hypocrisy will forever be supported, as it still is today. With the obsession of thin, health bias amongst larger people growing and becoming a epidemic itself universal wise, and discrimination against larger women mainly, I'm sure we're fighting a losing battle here. The fashion industry doesn't care about health or society they're trying to seel clothes and the hard truth is they're more partial to specific size women modeling their clothes. Forget the fact that short women and curvacious women exist in the world "WHO CARES" right? I like how they keep pushing this discriminating theory that embracing plus size models will somehow contribute to obesity. Really? What for decades really thin underweight models modeling clothes contributing to anorexia or eating disorders I guess that's exceptable right as long as fat women aren't in the public eye selling fashion. I guess broadening your demographic doesn't exist anymore eh? Women with my body can't relate to women with a entire different weight and build wearing her clothes trying to sell it to me, I mean I thought they were trying to sell the product so why not stop discriminating against plus size fashion on runways and appeal to all women so we can be able buy clothes alike?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1718687870631313999.post-46234818958310041992011-02-15T04:58:40.281-05:002011-02-15T04:58:40.281-05:00Thanks for the tip on the olivio.

Both diseases are dangerous and help should be sought by anyone battling either. If the author has experienced battling anorexia and body image, she should be the most sensitive about the difficulties of weight issues. But because society praises one and derides another, she has the audacity to write such a disgusting and vitriolic blog.pastorsjkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17437802240083656700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1718687870631313999.post-34885763893155383982010-10-12T19:30:16.704-04:002010-10-12T19:30:16.704-04:00Karley, just found this place from DyeDianaDye...Karley, just found this place from DyeDianaDye's facebook page.
