I see ZERO fat people in this video, just non-anorexics.  

 Here's a tip ladies, if you are really a size 2, you will be found ugly by most men with any true taste in women.  Shoot for normality.


 
that's a douche bag comment to make. it's NORMAL for a girl to be NATURALLY skinny, and it's NOT normal to look like a beached whale


Right, but again, there are ZERO beached whales int he video, just normal looking people.

Being a size 10 isn't even fat, dumbass. She's not even close to being overweight. Being a twig isn't EVEN CLOSE to being pretty. I think Whitney is absolutely gorgeous. I'm not a size 2, but I'm not overweight either. I'm very happy with my size because it fits and looks good on me. Something more like a size 17-20 is where you need to lose weight. Anything less, depending on your body type, is absolutely perfect.

Some women can look larger just because of their frame.

In any case, what he said is true. He wasn't getting at natural size 2s, what he was getting at is girls who are just larger and want to starve themselves to be a size 2, then look all pasty and withdrawn.

And also, on that note, my friend -an ex-anorexic- was looking at photos of me, her and another friend in the park and was like 'Look how skinny my arms are, I really need to put on a bit of weight'. I think she's beautiful the way she is, but even her ex-boyfriend, at the time they were going out, said to her that he'd prefer her at a size 12 than 8 (UK sizes).

She's talking about the modelling industry wanting models to be ridiculously skinny, not about being overweight. She's not overweight, not by a long straw.

I'm overweight, but I don't put others down for their appearance... in fact, I could care less about how I look for the most part, but only want to lose weight for health reasons, and to help my back get better.

But... you know the one problem with what you said?  Fatter people DO get "discriminated" against.  But why?  Because of APPEARANCE.  People don't make fun of those that are overweight because they are unhealthy, they do it because of media.  Skinny is how people think they SHOULD be... and those that aren't skinny are many times made fun of for this...  I mean, do you make fun of someone that has cancer because they are unhealthy?  Do you make fun of someone that is sick, because they are unhealthy?... I mean, some people are depressive eaters... they eat when they are upset... and if their size is making them upset, it's an endless cycle...

And this being said.  My sister, she may be close to 200 pounds, but she is stronger and MORE fit AND healthier that people that are normal size.  She exercises every day, she does training in karate at least 3 times a week, and she eats very well, and healthy foods.  So, she may be overweight, but she is, in fact, healthier than many people.  Same goes for me... my physical activity sucks as I have been inactive because of back pain, but when it comes to eating food?  I'm much healthier than those skinny people that eat at fast food every day.  Why doesn't anyone give those people problems... right?

So I dunno... I guess this is my point... we all get depressed about things sometimes.  Weight is one of them... even SKINNY girls are upset that they are "Fat" and they complain about it... sometimes you need someone to vent to, someone to tell you that they're willing to help, or just somewhere to release your emotions... Media dictates so much in our life these days... that if you aren't skinny, or beautiful, or in style... society might reject you.  Sad, but true.

I really wish nutrition classes were manditory in highschool... so many people would benefit from it... some people just don't know HOW to exercise, or how to eat properly.  If they did, losing weight would be so much easier to do...  and others have specific medical reasons that keep them from losing weight...

She is being quite over-dramatic over one go-see. Though, I disagree, she does not need to lose an inch. I don't think she needs to change at all just to cater to to one facet of the industry.

How is she acting like a martyr? She's just attesting to the harsh reality of modelling. Anyone would be pissed had they been called out in the same manner.

Just because it's average, it doesn't mean it's healthy.

i didnt say it was healthy.  i just said that 14 is average for an american woman, and the girl in the video isn't fat.  she's less than average.  just because she's not stick skinny doesn't mean she's fat.
