These Women Make Skinny Seem Silly
"Plus" what? In the current modeling definition, anyone above size 2 is a plus size. So what are we trying to emulate?

Body shaming skinny woman is shameful and disgusting. Especially women like me who can’t help how thin they are
Most women are size 12 or 14. Anyone who says that this truth demeans women who are smaller is taking this vid and these comments way too seriously. Nowhere do they say other sizes arent also perfect. Get real people
Great! Too bad the title reeks of body shaming. I actually clicked the link out of anger, but nonetheless enjoyed what I saw.
I also learned that, as a size 4, I’m on the verge of being considered plus sized by the modeling industry, yet , at 18.5, my BMI is on the verge of being too low…
Have to put this out there – most “plus” sized women are not “making fun” of skinny women. The whole point of these campaigns that are proclaiming that you don’t have to be a size zero to be pretty are not in any way shape or form saying skinny girls are ugly. They are simply saying that zero is not the only size out there that is pretty! Plain and simple! All the skinny girls need to take a step back and just realize how hard it is to be plus sized in today’s society where “skinny” is considered to be the most beautiful. Everyone is beautiful dammit just accept it and stop pointing fingers!
Really excited for this but I agree with the other commenters, there’s no need to put down ‘skinny’ women in the title. There’s no wrong way to have a body.
Hi. A word about the title: that line was inspired by the shot of one of the models pushing aside the mannequin, and the hamster wheel women feel compelled to ride to fit into that mold. It definitely wasn’t meant as a put-down of any body shape or size, though I can see how it can be read that way. It would have been truer to the film’s message (as well as Wifey’s mission) if we’d called it “the quest for skinny” or something like that. Apologies!
Hot ladies all. No need to put down skinny girls in the title though. 🙂 Sort of undermines the meaning of the piece. Very cool women in this vid though, and gorgeous!
they are fat
I am all about supporting all women. Until We decide it’s okay to put down thin women. A slider woman is never allowed to put down a woman who is heavier set. Yet it is okay to insult, make fun of, and put down girls who a thin. At one point I was mad and hurt by those comments. Now, I just point out how wrong it is for anyone to poke at another person for the way they look. When women do it to each other it.is even worse. Tell my fat daughter she is beautiful because SHE IS. However, don’t make my skinny daughter develop mental health issues because she is thin, she is BEAUTIFUL! WE ARE ALL BEAUTIFUL
So absolutely stoked for this! I just barely got signed with a modeling agency as a plus size model and I want to take over the world! Thank you for keeping women like me inspired and reminding us all that EVERYONE is beautiful no matter what size or shape!
