[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The end of an institution. Sad that SI has caved to this sort of pandering.

I'm a straight woman and find this revolting. I have an obese son, who struggles with thyroid issues as well as my family's endocrine issues. I know the pain and health issues he's suffered over the years due to his obesity. It should not be celebrated.[/quote]

I agree.

Size 16 is not a healthy weight.

[b]With the obesity epidemic in this country, we should not be normalizing a size 16 as a desireable body[/b].[/quote]

But we've been normalizing and celebrating size 00 for years. Why is it only disgusting and pandering only on one side of the BMI scale?

A lot of suffering comes from trying to fit an unrealistic (and equally unhealthy) body "ideal". [/quote]

Then use a size six to size ten model.

This lady is at an unhealthy size.  We have an obesity epidemic in this country, [b]not a too thin epidemic[/b].[/quote]

Eating disorders are in fact a problem in this country. [/quote]

yes, too much eating[/quote]
