It’s not that models aren’t ‘pretty’. They are. But so are average sized girls, plus sized girls, and everything in between. This website is so amazing, but lets not make it so that skinny people become hated… EVERYONE is beautiful. NO MATTER WHAT SIZE YOU ARE. Size 00-40 we are all amazing <3

When you hear about influential designers like Karl Lagerfeld and Ralph Lauren telling women what they should and should not look like, yeh, its depressing, but its also RIDICULOUS! Once again, its men calling the shots… they’re not just designing the clothes anymore, they’re designing the world’s perception of the female (and male) form! What I want to know is, why the MODELS stand for it, sure, I bet they love being thin, but surely they now at first hand that they don’t have healthy lifestyles, and that that photo WAS airbrushed… if models keep supplying designers with this image, why would they ever change?? x

Whenever I see ads with super gorgeous girls now, I just know that they are all airbrushed and photoshopped. Not even professionals look like that!!!

ladies, thank you so much. operation beautiful has made a huge impact on my life. when the fillipino hamilton story broke, i blogged about it. as someone who struggles with an eating disorder it especially upset me that ralph lauren would even dare to THINK of making her look anorexic. they were obviously trying to get rumors started about her, i will never buy any of ralph lauren’s products ever again. (not that my plus size body could fit into any of their clothes, but that’s not my point.) i think every woman should boycott the company untill they get it through their thick heads that this kind of behavior will not be tolerated by the public. it would be nice if they’d someday start to make clothes for those of us who are bigger than a store maniquine, but i’m not expecting miracles from a company that perpetuates eating disorders.
