I can agree with not allowing model agencies to encourage models to diet below a certain bmi in the healthy range. I've had a couple of friends who modeled and the only way they could stay skinny enough to get work was cocaine. Now they have normal jobs and they have put on weight, but still slim and healthy so I can see it from that point of view. Compare the 90's supermodels with models today - it's ridiculous. A girl who's 6 foot tall and a UK size 10 should not be considered as a plus size! That's slim and healthy! HOWEVER, all this talk about not pressuring women to be skinny means that fatties jump on the bandwagon. Unfortunately we do want to see slim models, but how do you separate out not encouraging normal slim girls to starve from letting the hambeasts run riot?
