Fat & Beautiful, or just fat?
This link is talking about Tess Holliday, who is a plus-sized model (size 20 American, UK 24).
I pose this question to you.... do you agree with her message?
I, personally, love that she promotes self-love and not self-hate. If we all should be so lucky to feel comfortable in our bodies. However, part of me feels like she's also promoting something unhealthy (obesity).
What's your opinion? DISCUSS!
[b]EDIT:[/b] Do you think that if she were a MAN, that society would be saying "love yourself"? I feel like there's a huge double standard here when it comes to males and females being happy with their body sizes.

5 RepliesShe's comfortable within her own skin and I can admire/respect that. She's got nice facial features that I would consider "pretty". Though I will confess/admit (with a little self-shame) that when I look at a full-body pic of her, her head seems small and on an unconscious level (or even conscious), it gives me a double-take due to my sense of proportion when it comes to the human form. Just like how artists intentionally draw super-heroes with non-typical proportions in order to give an altered impression, her head/body proportions give me a subconscious reaction/impression. With that said, she's certainly capable of modeling clothes for a particular demographic and her face, self-confidence, and other factors combine to make her a reasonable choice as a model.
