Plus-size representation and why it's killing modelling as a concept Plus is not equal first of all. Not all things, or bodies especially, are of equal worth. A healthy body, worked for and cared for is simply worth much more than a fat, lazy, depressed, out of shape body.  Before I made the transformation, I was overweight and not once did I cry and whine like a bitch because I didn't have the body I wanted. All these fucking pussies complain about not being represented by models, because the models arent fat enough to represent the average american.  GOOD. You're just jealous of the fit. Modeling has NEVER been about representing the average. It is about capturing fresh, and REAL beauty. That's why not just anyone can be a model.  I don't understand this sudden clamoring of the American populace over not being represented. America has been out of shape for years, but now they're all hurt fee fee pussies.
