I'm so glad that there is a dialogue about women's body sizes in magazines. On one spot about the photo some guy said that (and I'm paraphrasing) "Women don't want to see that in a magazine. They want to see what they aspire to be." Seriously, Mr. Man?
Women come in all sizes and shapes and can still be HEALTHY. That's the key word. HEALTHY -- their physical health as well as their emotional and mental health.
There are naturally thin women, yes, but the majority of models that you see in magazines (except for sports/bikini magazines) have underweight BMIs. Are they healthy? Is that what we should aspire to be?
