Today on the morning news there was a story about a Ralph Lauren model who was fired for being too fat.
They interviewed her and she said she had no idea why she was fired. She was hired about 10 years ago at the age of 15 and she was about 5'11", 119 lbs! To those who don't know, that is probably about a size 4. Today she is 120lbs. But now she is considered too large.
Large...at 120 lbs....
Oh lord, I think I might have a fit.
Back in the day women with a little meat on their bones were considered the most beautiful women.
Take Botticelli for instance. He painted some of the most iconic images of women ever. They were the opitomy of what was considered feminine.
I see a little pooch there, don't you?
And Marilyn Monroe, considered to be one of the sexiest women who ever lived...
a size 10!
WHAT IS WRONG WITH SOCIETY THAT WE idolize models who are anorexic skinny bean poles?
