Ewen Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Saying that Audrey Hepburn is often voted most stunning on film but she is only the size she is because of what she endured during the war....Think about it! Beautiful face, bit too skinny for my tastes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faye Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Audrey Hepburn was just plain diddy though, not 5' 9" plus. Its all about proportion in my book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlotte Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 "The association said it wanted models to project "an image of beauty and health" and shun a gaunt, emaciated look at the show" I can kind of see what they're saying there. Plus this is in Spain, I can't see it catching on in this country or America. Models are that way for a reason, the designers can dress them for less money than someone who is larger, but bring back the supermodels of the 90s they were gorgeous and had lovely figures. Has anyone seen any of those pro-ana sites? Scary stuff - made more scary in the fact that they use celebrities and models in their sites as if they are pro-ana too. Like this.

robert_gray Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Hard one to call this one. I agree with if fatties were banned there would be such an uproar. The skinny model thing shouldn't as much be banned more less glamourised, it's not the models that are to blame its the magazines that are saying that thats the way women should look. Take Posh spice for instance, now i know that she isnt the best person to use in this argument at first but take a look how much press coverage the two of them get! One one hand you have got a washed out singer that tried so hard to go solo but flopped magnificantly, on the other hand you have got a footballer, always in the press for his footballing acheivments/transferes/england player, but then look at all the stuff that he advertises along with her. waffle waffle....... sorry, anyway back to the subject, in there latest advertising campaign the skinny posh that we all know (who takes care of her won publicity) has had her arse made bigger, even she can see that a bigger bum looks better.

AJI Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 I think its about time they did this move. These so called super models that are so skinny are so damn unattractive. They have the figures of 10 year old boys.... ie. no shape or anything (not intended to be a pervy comment, just a comparison effect). And true enough if this is a health image move also then the grossly overweight models should also be banned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wkdtime Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 So again I ask...what size, boys? 8-10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 So again I ask...what size, boys? Sizes are different in looks depending on the woman... so I cant give you a number, short, tall , body type, ethnicity etc. I dont like the look of 'boney slim' women, its disgusting.

mathew Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 the majority of models are tall birds to say the least along with having an ectomorphe body structure. ectormorphs can eat as much as they like and simply wont put on weight. the fact is that what ever happens there are gona be skinny girls and fat ones with nice ones thrown in between. i tend to go for atleast a size 8-10. size 12,14 are just as hot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathew Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 it also depends how you dress,for gods sake girls dress the right way to suit your size!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLicense Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Why do you guys seem to think that if "fatties" were banned there would be uproar? They've simply said that anyone with a body mass index of below 18 or whatever it is, is not healthy. The same should apply to those that have a BMI of over 25 (I think that's the upper healthy limit isn't it?) Just because size 16/14 is the average in the country right now, that doesn't mean it's necessarily healthy. Personally I think it's a cock on idea. If young girls idolise these models, and want to be like them, then making these role models healthier, in my eyes, can only be a good thing.

Im not happy with that body mass index thingey, because that assumes that everyone has the same bone structure, but the fact is that if you have naturally smaller bones, and you are tall and naturally thin, then you're going to be under the 18 "susposed" healthy limit, which they keep blurting out.

chilli Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Size doesn't matter (within reason) but being seriously underweight is just as ugly as being seriously overweight (IMHO)! who would want to cuddle a bag of bones lol imho sexy, real women have curves, that's part of being female. A super skinny no boobed model isn't far away from looking like a young bloke lol - blergh! and also I agree, it's all about proportion also. I'd say, unless you have an extreme problem, don't worry about it, you are who you are and people will either love it or hate it, the right ones will of course love it much more important are things like personality and face etc... and as for the models, not sure but if they ban one extreme I guess they have to ban the other - otherwise it's not fair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
