They're trying to normalize unhealthy people.

I don't think it's realistic that I could possibly get that big.
[–] Vonjaderyn 0 points 12 points 12 points (+12|-0) ago
Seriously. Smallfats are already bad enough, but how in the world do people get to that weight and then keep getting larger?

"Realistic" as what a human body should look like... nope.
"Realistic" as in what the average 'murican fat fuck looks like nowadays... unfortunately we are getting there. sigh

Not enough time in the day to eat that much. Some of us have things to do.

This thing https://i.sli.mg/3R9C8V.jpg won Project Runway, a clothing design competition. Its clothes sucked (hot glue gun flowers on the final show FFS) and it obviously won because plus size and fee feez.
I think it's JCPenney, they have a line by that whale. A piece of shit like that is allowed to release its own tent line. Fuck this earth.

Project Runway is not a clothing design competition. The competitors are not provided with proper materials, conditions, time, and resources to sew the outfits they're trying to convey. This kind of environment punishes real designs in favor of outfits, since it's quicker to hot glue accessories instead of sewing them together. Also, for some strange reason, designers are supposed to handle model makeup designs, model training, and undisclosed model sizes.
I find it particularly weird that PR actually provides less time and resources than RuPaul's Drag Race sewing competitions, since drag queens are supposed to wear outfits (that won't be used again, so it's okay to hot glue them together) AND makeup, choreography, performance, and humour.

I've actually been watching older seasons on PR lately (just finished the fourth, yay, for Siriano!), and while I agree with you, I think that if you really are a top designer you should be able to create fabulous things regardless of pressure, materials, and time. They are given several months and total creative freedom when they make it to Bryant Park so that's their time to shine. If you can't meet the challenges than you shouldn't deserve to be on stage. I think it's fair.
I can't help but wonder since season 4 came out (I think in 2007) that there still isn't a lot of fatlogic in the show. Siriano actually said to his models, "Stay skinny, don't eat!" and everyone laughed, including myself. And they all bitched when they had to design for family members cuz most of them were fat. I'm waiting for the show to take a slightly different direction when tumblerinas start appearing.

My company recently just hired a pig in her early 20s. She wore a "dress" today that literally looks like a tarp with arms attached to the sides.

Model, def: 1. "a three-dimensional representation of a person or thing... typically on a smaller scale than the original" ha, nope! 2. "a system or thing used as an example to follow or imitate" definitely not!

Well, if they mean a solar system then maybe.

> typically
If you can have 1:24, 1:72 scale models then can you have a 10:1 scale model too?
