I wrote a similar article like this for a local newspaper because I feel so strongly about it. <BR/><BR/>Women who are a size 12 should never think of it as a low point or too heavy. It's a fantastic size, there's nothing wrong with it. I hate how Hollywood portrays being a size 0 or 2 as glamorous. Show some curves! <BR/><BR/>As for JLH, I'm equally as confused about her. I thought it was great in Dec how she spoke out against people calling her fat (because, my god, she was NOT!). I liked that she was proud of her size.<BR/><BR/>Now if she wanted to lose weight for herself, like you said, awesome. That would be great. But DON'T FLAUNT IT. her being on the cover verifies that she thought she was too big. She gave into the press and it makes me sad. <BR/><BR/>Anyway, great post and great opinion on the issue. Sorry I was a little ranty in my comment. :)Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04349631448644661717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8894166322205551970.post-65034533203457288792008-08-20T13:35:00.000-05:002008-08-20T13:35:00.000-05:00you are awesome. i wrote a rant similar to this on...you are awesome. i wrote a rant similar to this one during top model last season with the "plus size" models that are a size 10. yeah it's ridiculous. hollywood standards are crazy and hopefully one day we'll all wake up and see that.Katelinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15994241556437259884noreply@blogger.com
