Did they liberate that mannequin from Dachau?
[QUOTE=Lemonator;31798219][img]http://www.themannequinman.com/female-form-plus-size-.jpg[/img] would rather have anorexic mannequins instead of this though[/QUOTE] "OH GOD NORMAL WOMAN BODY FUCK"
Quit being racist guys, it's obvious this is an Ethiopian mannequin.
That makes me wonder what Ethiopian cuisine tastes like. Also, what is with corporations promoting abnormally skinny bodies as if it were a good thing? I honestly want to know the reasoning behind it. If we put normal women on a pedestal it would be much better for all of us.
It's like a half human half stick-figure crossbreed

[QUOTE=Lambeth;31798281]What's wrong with that[/QUOTE] Whats wrong with skinny mannequins?
[QUOTE=Lemonator;31798872]Whats wrong with skinny mannequins?[/QUOTE] It encourages people to look like that, which is both ugly and unhealthy. [editline]18th August 2011[/editline] Now answer his question.
I think the point of the mannequin is to show how skinny those jeans are. Obviously they stretch, and I don't think they're advertising it as how they [I]should[/I] be worn.
[QUOTE=Lemonator;31798872]Whats wrong with skinny mannequins?[/QUOTE] yeah what's wrong with giving women distorted body images and making them slowly kill themselves
[QUOTE=LarparNar;31798882]It encourages people to look like that, which is both ugly and unhealthy. Now answer his question.[/QUOTE] But that means the "plus size" mannequins support overweight bodies
[QUOTE=Sanius;31798901]yeah what's wrong with giving women distorted body images and making them slowly kill themselves[/QUOTE] Call me wrong, but I'll claim that most people will not use a mannequin as a guide to what their body should look like. What about the rest of them that think of anorexia as the newest style? Headlines just like the one in the OP will discourage that thought. You might as well say that the use of crutches in public will encourage others to break their legs.

[QUOTE=Lemonator;31798872]Whats wrong with skinny mannequins?[/QUOTE] Nothing is wrong with skinny ones, it's the ones that look anorexic I have issues with. [editline]18th August 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Lemonator;31798944]But that means the "plus size" mannequins support overweight bodies[/QUOTE] plus size for those big fashion companies are normal for everyone else.
[QUOTE=Lemonator;31798219][img]http://www.themannequinman.com/female-form-plus-size-.jpg[/img] would rather have anorexic mannequins instead of this though[/QUOTE]That's pretty much a perfect healthy weight though, I'd go for a bit more weight on a girl personally, I don't get some guy's obsession for girls with limbs like cocktail sticks. Mannequins are supposed to look sexy though, they're supposed to show you how the clothes would look with someone wearing them, mannequins only of slim figures aren't very useful to most consumers.
I wish things were how they used to be with women, in the Tudor periods. It was fashionable to be chubby and pale back then, I would have been worshiped as an Adonis. Not saying I'm into that kinda thing, though.
[QUOTE=Lemonator;31798219][img]http://www.themannequinman.com/female-form-plus-size-.jpg[/img][/QUOTE] That's a fairly normal woman body. It isn't a particularly sexy one though, and it does have a bit more chub than most women (unless you live in America or the UK I guess).
My girlfriend is chubby and I fuckin' love it. You guys can stick with your titless-assless women and I'll have the real women to myself :v:

I feel like I could wrap my whole hand around those legs
it's probably got elastic fabric and the mannequin wasn't designed for that
[QUOTE=Maxx;31801242]It's not like normal girls with big boobs exist or anything.[/QUOTE]Way less common, plus they'd be even bigger if she put some more weight on :q:
While this is terrible the people who encourage women that being fat is natural and wholesome are just as bad tbh. Much in the same way that many people consider the ideal masculine physique to be lean and proportionally muscular, I would consider the ideal female physique to be slim waisted with large breasts and hips/ass I don't think there is actually any actual notable amount of males out there who are attracted to the starving marvin look, so it does make me wonder how this fashion got started.
her elbows are a little too pointy
Reminds me of this. [img]http://images.pictureshunt.com/pics/t/the_nightmare_before_christmas-2953.jpg[/img]
This is news? They've been doing this for ages.

Gimme that obese example omnomnom
